Wimbledon: Naomi Osaka loses to Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova in the 3rd round
LONDON (AP) — Naomi Osaka might be more comfortable on grass courts these days but she will once again leave Wimbledon in the third round after a 3-6, 6-4, 6-4 loss to Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova on Friday. Osaka is a former No. 1 now ranked 50th and a four-time Grand Slam champion, all on hard courts — she won the U.S. Open and Australian Open twice apiece. Osaka arrived at the All England Club this year having lost three of her last four matches at the place and with a career record of 5-4 there. Her best showing was getting to the third round in 2017 and 2018; she missed the tournament in 2021, 2022 and 2023. From 4-all in the third set, Pavluchenkova grabbed eight of the match's last 10 points, holding at love, then breaking in the final game with the help of a trio of forehand unforced errors by Osaka. 'A majority of you were cheering for Naomi, but that's OK,' Pavlyuchenkova, who turned 34 on Thursday, told the crowd at Court No. 2. 'I'm mentally tough, so that didn't bother me at all. The opposite: It gave me energy.' Pavlyuchenkova, who is ranked 53rd, was the 2021 runner-up at the French Open, and Friday's victory moved her into the fourth round at Wimbledon for the first time since she was a quarterfinalist nine years ago.

‘Vampire' takes a bite out of Hamilton: Popular TV horror series, based on Anne Rice's novel, shoots scenes in Hamilton, Burlington and Cayuga
Hamilton is playing Toledo, Ohio, in one of the most popular and critically acclaimed television shows on the planet. 'Interview with the Vampire' shot a scene for its third season in the courtyard on top of Lloyd D. Jackson Square the evening of June 20. It involves two of the show's characters, naturally vampires, sitting on a concrete bench looking up at an office tower. The production had dressed up some of the background with signs from a Toledo real estate company. Crews for 'Interview with the Vampire' shot a night scene June 20 in the courtyard on top of Lloyd D. Jackson Square in downtown Hamilton. It was one of four local locations used by producers as the show began shooting its new season on June 16. Crews spent the week of June 16 to June 20 filming at historic Ruthven Park, outside Cayuga. Scenes were reportedly filmed in the woods and in front of the imposing Greek Revival home at the Highway 54 landmark, which was built by the wealthy Thompson family in the 1840s. The scenes reportedly involved characters in the 1700s. Vampires are immortal, after all. A sign noting the filming of 'Interview with the Vampire' sits on Highway 54 outside Ruthven Park near Cayuga. The popular horror series shot scenes there for its third season from June 16 to 20. Show scenes were also shot in a motel room at Knights Inn on Plains Road East in Burlington on June 20, and at the Corktown Tavern on Young Street on June 23. The latter scene reportedly involved musicians in a band rehearsal. Crew members mill around on June 20 while a scene for the TV series 'Interview with the Vampire' was shot in a motel room at Knights Inn in Burlington. The new season centres around a rock band headed by vampire Lestat, the main character in the story based on Anne Rice's book. Based on Anne Rice's novel, the series involves the goings-on of vampires Lestat de Lioncourt (Australian actor Sam Reid), Louis de Pointe du Lac (British actor Jacob Anderson) and teenager Claudia (Bailey Bass in Season 1, Delaney Hayles in Season 2). Their story is put into a bestselling book by author Daniel Molloy (Eric Bogosian) following interviews with Louis. The first season was filmed in New Orleans and the second season was shot in Prague, Paris and New Orleans. The show was an immediate hit when its first season premiered on AMC Plus in 2022 and ranks up there with the network's hit series 'The Walking Dead' and 'Better Call Saul.' It has also been a darling with the critics. A scene from Season 2 of 'Interview with the Vampire.' Crews have been filming in and around Hamilton since June 16. Season 3 is based on Rice's 1985 novel 'The Vampire Lestat.' The synopsis sees Lestat resentful of his portrayal in Molloy's book and he sets out to set the story straight 'in a way only the vampire Lestat can — by starting a band and going on tour.' A production vehicle enters Ruthven Park near Cayuga where the popular horror TV series 'Interview with the Vampire' recently filmed scenes for its third season. The program promises 'a sexy pilgrimage across space, time and trauma.' Dan McDermott, president of AMC Studios and AMC Networks, said the show has exceeded the network's expectations. 'We can't wait to see where this creative team takes the series from here and know we are walking alongside an incredibly loyal and passionate base of fans who feel as strongly about this material as we do.' Interesting fact: Peter O'Toole made a movie at Ruthven in 2000 called 'Global Heresy.' He played a British lord acting as a butler to a rock band. Eighty-five years ago this summer the skies over Britain were the battleground for one of the decisive battles of the Second World War — the Battle of Britain. If the Germans had won control of the skies, that would have probably meant invasion. But, thankfully, British flyers and their allies, including a number of Canadians like Hamilton pilot Henry Sprague (he died at age 99 in 2015), kept control of the skies and the invasion never happened. The battle will be marked July 8 at the Playhouse Cinema with a presentation by author Ted Barris on his latest book 'Battle of Britain: Canadian airmen in Their Finest Hour' and a showing of the all-star 1969 movie 'Battle of Britain.' The evening begins at 6.30 p.m. The movie is a story in itself. Canadian producer Harry Saltzman spent $12 million to recreate the battle and assembled enough Spitfires, Heinkels, Messerschmitts and Hurricanes to have the 35th largest air force in the world in 1968. The movie tells the story from both British and German viewpoints and stars Michael Caine, Christopher Plummer and Laurence Olivier. Its amazing aerial footage was filmed over Britain, Spain and Malta.
