Williams is hoping they can rebound from a slow start this weekend at the F1 Austrian Grand Prix
Following a stunning seventh-place finish in the Formula 1 Constructors’ Championship a season ago, there were hopes for even more at Williams this season. When the team launched their 2024 challenger in New York City in early February Team Principal James Vowles made it clear: Fighting at the front is the goal.
“I’m confident we’ve, we’ve done a really good job,” said Vowles to the media, including SB Nation, in New York City.

This situation centers around transgender student-athlete Aayden Gallagher – a biological male – who competes in girls’ track and field in Oregon.

Can anyone in the final four beat India?
The semi-finals of the T20 Cricket World Cup begin on Wednesday, and at least on paper it looks like 2024 is India’s tournament to lose.

Naturally the most attention is on India, who have gone a perfect 6-0 in the tournament with an astronomical +2.01 net run rate in the second group stage — but that doesn’t mean they’ll win by default.

Tuesday night saw a pair of wild trades involving the Brooklyn Nets: Mikal Bridges was traded to the New York Knicks for five future first round picks, then Brooklyn followed it up by reacquiring their own future draft picks from Houston for a group of future picks that mostly originally belonged to the Phoenix Suns.

Reggie Jackson is 2-for-2 in viral stories of old racism over the past week. Mr. October doesn’t miss, even in June!

American soccer star Lindsey Horan isn’t afraid to show her love for our beautiful national anthem.
“The Star-Spangled Banner” has become a lightning rod at several points over the past few years ever since Colin Kaepernick kneeled during the national anthem.
Many other athletes followed the former NFL QB’s example. While the anthem protests are pretty much over at this point, you never know when they might flare up again.
One thing you can count on is Horan standing.
