Women’s World Cup
The U.S. Women are champions of the world again. While critics didn’t like how confident this team was, they earned it, becoming only the second country ever to pull off back-to-back Women’s World Cup wins. (The other is Germany). Their lavender-haired captain, Megan Rapinoe, scored the first goal, making her the oldest woman to ever score in a World Cup final at the age of 34. SHE CELEBRATED LIKE A VETERAN TOO
Overtime
It’s literally Manic Monday at Wimbledon (tennis). Seriously, it’s referred to as Manic Monday because everyone had a day off yesterday, therefore everyone will be playing today. All eyes will be on 15-year-old American Coco Gauff, as she continues her climb to the finals. The other American wowing everyone is unseeded Alison Riske who ousted #1 ranked Ash Barty today.

The epicenter has shifted to Los Angeles and no we’re not talking about earthquakes. The two L.A. NBA (National Basketball Association) teams made some serious off-season moves over the weekend that have them both at the top of sports books and experts’ lists to win the championship. The Clippers secured the Toronto Raptors (last season’s champions) top player, Kawhi Leonard and the Lakers landed Anthony Davis. LEGIT IN LA LA LAND
