The Indiana Fever and Caitlin Clark are in the midst of one of the most difficult starts to a WNBA season in nearly 20 years.
For as much as Caitlin Clark has brought attention to the WNBA — and she’s certainly had great success doing that so far — she has struggled to bring wins to the Fever. Friday’s win over the Sparks, which included some dagger 3-pointers from Clark, was the first victory of the season for Indiana.

Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc has another golden opportunity to win the Monaco Grand Prix — his home race — after qualifying on pole for the third time in his career.
Of course, one of the years he qualified on pole he crashed and couldn’t start the race… but that’s in the past; this is now and he’s got a great shot at victory on Sunday.

In one single play, Griffin Bruns from Marion Local High School in Ohio displayed more hustle and heart than most players display in an entire season.
It was the top of the sixth inning in Friday’s Division IV baseball final against Fort Recovery High School, and Bruns and Marion Local were getting the snot beat out of them. Fort Recovery was winning 11-3, and Marion Local was probably mentally checked out and just hoping for the game to end quickly.
