Fans Grossed Out By Tennis Star Iga Swiatek's Favorite Meal
Fans Grossed Out By Tennis Star Iga Swiatek's Favorite Meal originally appeared on The Spun. Iga Swiatek may have revealed her secret to being one of the best tennis players in the world. On Saturday night, Swiatek defeated Danielle Collins to punch her ticket to the fourth round at Wimbledon. Although grass is considered her worst surface, she has looked really sharp over the past three matches. Her outlook for the rest of the tournament is really positive considering she's the only major champion left in her half of the draw. Advertisement Following her third-round match, Swiatek was asked if she knows what she's going to eat to celebrate her victory over Collins. Let's just say her response was very interesting. "I don't know yet," Swiatek said. "I have my favorite. It's pasta with strawberries. I ate it as a kid. You guys should try it. It's just great."

A few hours later, Swiatek shared a photo of her enjoying a bowl of pasta and strawberries on Instagram. Unsurprisingly, fans were a bit grossed out by Swiatek's post-match meal. "She actually can't be serious," one fan replied. "I will support every Iga's right and wrong, but strawberry on pasta.. girl," a second fan wrote on X. Advertisement "That should be illegal," another fan said. "That's disgusting," a social media user commented. Clearly, Swiatek's favorite meal doesn't hurt her performance on the court. Next up for Swiatek is a showdown with Clara Tauson, who is coming off a straight-sets win over former Wimbledon champion Elena Rybakina. Swiatek is hoping to make it back to the quarterfinals at Wimbledon for just the second time in her career.

Serena Williams & Alexis Ohanian's Daughters Are the Sweetest Daddy's Girls in a Heart-Melting New Photo
Girl dads have a special kind of bond with their daughters, and Serena Williams' husband Alexis Ohanian is the perfect example. He showers their girls Olympia, 7, and Adira, 22 months, with love. A heart-melting new photo prove they are Daddy's girls through and through, and we've never seen anything sweeter! 'London morning with my girls,' the Reddit co-founder shared on Instagram today. He added, 'Also stopped by the women's sports store pop-up—Up The Chels!' More from SheKnows Chrissy Teigen's Daughter Esti Had the Cutest Reaction to Lunchtime in a New Video & It's Such a Vibe In the first photo, Ohanian walks toward the London Eye, holding his daughters in his arms. Adira's hair is up in two space buns on top of her head, as she turns her head and rests on her dad's shoulder. Olympia hangs out on her dad's other shoulder, with one arm around his back and the other arm around her sister. She leans forward to rest on his shoulder in the cutest snap. He also shared photos from the pop-up shop, featuring a jersey by Lucy Bronze of the Chelsea Women Football Club, of which Ohanian is a minor investor. In the comments, people praised this outing, focused on father-daughter bonding time and supporting women's sports. 'You are the epitome of a well-rounded man. A devoted husband, an incredible father, and a driven, accomplished businessman. Your heart is as big as your ambition. We can see it!! Well Done!' one person commented. 'This is what a real man looks like – devoted father, not afraid of his wife's success, and pursuing causes and investments to make the world a better place,' someone else wrote. In May, Ohanian and Williams brought Olympia to a Chelsea game at Wembley, where they won the Treble. The tech founder told BBC, 'That is what we're trying to build here with Chelsea Women — not just to be the best team, but truly the best team in all of women's sports. This will be a billion dollar franchise one day and beyond, and I hope my dollars — or should I say my pounds! — can go towards that in a big way. This is going to be America's team.' He also shared that while his girls are active like their mom, they will be encouraged to do whatever they want when they grow up. 'Both those girls are active. Olympia's definitely been playing a lot of tennis and she plays golf too,' Ohanian gushed. 'I've definitely been trying to get her into soccer, but whatever she wants she'll be great. She's very excited to be a Blues fan.' A loving dad and a supportive man?

Jannik Sinner Hasn't Been Broken At Wimbledon Or By Paris
LONDON, ENGLAND - JULY 05: Jannik Sinner (L) of Italy greets Pedro Martinez of Spain after their ... More Gentlemen's Singles Third Round match on day six of The Championships Wimbledon 2025 at All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club on July 05, 2025 in London, England. (Photo by) Wimbledon's Centre Court had a very functional middle Saturday. If Emma Raducanu and Aryna Sabalenka provided Friday night Champagne Supernova viewing, Saturday's afternoon session felt like a cloudy hangover. Jannik Sinner dispatched Spain's Pedro Martinez in straight sets under the closed roof, played out in front of the great and good of British sport in the Royal Box (plus Andy Roddick and Billie Jean King). Martinez is world No. 52 and reached the third round of Wimbledon in 2021 as well. He didn't have the resume to rattle the world No.1 and everyone present knew that from the start. The 28-year-old's cause wasn't helped by a shoulder issue that required the trainer at 0-5 down in the first set. Things could have got very ugly indeed when the Spaniard popped over an 86 mph serve to go a double break behind. Martinez came out swinging when he knew physicality wasn't on his side. He won the next six points and played with abandon, the kind of attitude that could at least make some small dents in Sinner's outer ring of steel. The crowd knew what was going to happen. It was a guaranteed defeat, but effort is never futile. It's a difficult sell in front of the likes of great Olympians, Dame Laura Kenny and Sir Steve Redgrave. All three matches on Centre ended in victories for Sinner, Novak Djokovic and Iga Swiatek, with an aggregate loss of 17 games between these three multiple Slam winners. Champions know how to dull the opponent's hope, but this felt like a procession without any light or shade. There was no jeopardy, the very essence of competitive sport. At least the second set was competitive. Sinner and Martinez were never trading on equal terms. The number one seed always has more chips on the table. Sinner saved four break points at 4-3 as Martinez threw everything he could without really being in contention. Sinner can destroy opponents and greet them at the net with the warmest of hugs, as if they just had the best knockabout in Wimbledon Park. Sinner is a smiling assassin who can detonate with accuracy and authority. The 23-year-old made almost three times as many unforced errors as he had in the previous round against Aleksandar Vukic, but he was never under any serious threat Sinner has lost just ten games in the last six sets – five today and five against Vukic - hasn't dropped his serve, and is now the record-holder for least number of games ceded after three rounds at Wimbledon. That's one less record that Roger Federer holds on his favorite piece of turf. LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM - JULY 5: Jannik Sinner of Italy in action during Day Six of The ... More Championships Wimbledon 2025 at All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club on July 5, 2025 in London, United Kingdom. (Photo by Marleen Fouchier/) Sinner doesn't care much for such statistics. As he said in the press conference, it's all about looking after his side of the net. The rest is fluff and stuff for others to speculate over. There are no negative thoughts coming from that stunning but stinging final defeat at Roland Garros where he held three match points against Carlos Alcaraz in the fifth set. Sinner is all about what tomorrow brings. Sinner's progress to the second week has been smoother than Alcaraz and that energy saving could prove to be a factor, especially as the world no. 2 went all the way at Queen's as well. Grand Slams can't be won in the first week, but there have been no difficult moments so far for Sinner. The long haul is halfway through without any turbulence. It doesn't mean anything until he reaches July 13.
