Naomi Osaka had announced last week that she would be skipping all her media commitments at Roland Garros this year in a bid to safeguard her mental health. But not a lot was known about her issues at that point of time, and so many attacked the Japanese for failing to fulfil her contractual media obligations. But Naomi Osaka took to Twitter on Monday to announce her withdrawal from the claycourt Major, asserting how she does not want to become a “distraction”....

The length of the 25-year-old’s contract is yet to be confirmed by the club, but he is said to have signed until 2024 and becomes Napoli’s second signing of the month following Diego Demme’s switch from RB Leipzig.

The 0-0 scoreline on Wednesday saw Juventus overtake Napoli at the top of the table and, with the champions playing at lowly Palermo in Saturday’s early kickoff, Napoli will not want to concede any more ground.

A 1-0 derby win at local rivals Torino earlier in the day had briefly sent Juventus above Napoli, who suffered a shock Europa League defeat to RB Leipzig on Thursday. But Maurizio Sarri’s side reclaimed first place with a 1-0 victory at home to SPAL thanks to a winning goal from Allan, the midfielder scoring his fourth strike of the campaign. Captain Marek Hamsik thought he had made the points safe with a second-half header only for the goal to be disallowed following a VAR review....
With 53 points from 27 games, Napoli are fifth in the log and have enjoyed an impressive campaign. Crotone, meanwhile, are currently rock-bottom after picking up just 15 points from a possible 84 so far.

In fact, NASCAR’s initial crash report says nothing of Gase, instead suggesting Byron collided solely with Christopher Bell. Byron did his best to provide color following the race-ending crash, which ensured he would not advance to the Round of 12. He seemed to believe it was Gase who caused the problem. “I don’t know why he just stopped in the middle of the straightaway,” Byron said of Gase. “What an idiot....

No, unlike the winless top Chevy team of Hendrick Motorsports, the top Toyota teams of Joe Gibbs Racing and Furniture Row Racing are not in desperation mode. JGR has five wins already this season, all from points leader Kyle Busch, and Martin Truex Jr. has posted three victories for FRR. But either team would love to conquer a track at which a Toyota has won just two times in 21 Cup Series points races since the manufacturer joined the sport in 2008....
The engine in Earnhardt’s No. 88 Hendrick Motorsports Chevrolet expired after 22 laps of Sunday’s I Love New York 355 at Watkins Glen International, bringing a merciful end to a weekend in which Earnhardt and his team searched in vain for a semblance of speed in the car.

Drivers went through qualifying for the eighth and final time in the 2021 season. NASCAR drastically cut back on qualifying and practice to reduce the amount of time spent at the track amid the COVID-19 pandemic and to reduce costs. The starting positions for the championship race were determined by the times drivers posted in their individual two-lap qualifying runs. Below is the starting lineup, which was set with qualifying, for Sunday’s NASCAR Cup Series Championship race on Phoenix Raceway’s 1-mile oval....

Hamlin is setting himself up well in 2022 after earning the pole position for Sunday’s race. He ran just ahead of teammate and reigning race champion Kyle Busch. Kurt Busch, who reached the final round of qualifying, crashed on the third turn and could not finish his lap, which means he will start 10th in a backup car Sunday....

NASCAR has used inversion for previous Pocono doubleheaders and went to it last year when tracks hosted multiple races during the week because of schedule changes forced by the COVID-19 shutdown....
