The scariest moment we’ve seen in a long time in sports occurred on Saturday afternoon. During the Euro 2020, a competition between European countries, Danish player Christian Eriksen collapsed on the field. The world watched as the medical team administered CPR and used a defibrillator. He was taken to the hospital.

The unsung heroine of the weekend is Barbora Krejcikova.

She’s the first Czech to secure a double victory since 2000. WHAT LIKE IT’S HARD?
