Supporting a LGTBQI+ rights group in Jamaica, left Elton McDuffus fearing for his life. He said he survived a knife attack and an attempted break-in as assailants shouted anti-gay slurs. Now, living in Toronto, he feels safe to hold hands. cbsn.ws/3oZLopU

Miyu Kato says she lost her appeal to regain the money and points she lost when defaulted at Roland Garros.

My first match on grass didn’t go as expected.
The French Open (Roland Garros) fined me as well as rejecting my appeal for getting my prize money and points so all I can do is to keep looking forwards.

We’re a set from 23 Majors, a men’s record…But given how Djokovic outlasted a 20-year-old physically and is now thrashing a top-5 player 12 years his junior + will soon go to the next Major where he’s defending champ…23 is looking like a signpost on the way to a final tally….

Djokovic needs to hold serve for a few more games and he'll reach his 34th Major final. He has played...70 Majors. Damn. #RolandGarros
