Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 19:06:32 GMT

BUDAPEST, Hungary (AP) — The American men who had won the 100 meters, 200 meters and 4×100 relay at world championships before this year are known to track fans: Tyson Gay and Maurice Greene.But some of the American men who have gone 3 for 3 in those races at the Olympics are known far beyond the shadow of any track stadium – think, Jesse Owens and Carl Lewis.The sizable gap between “track star” and “global icon” is the one Noah Lyles is hoping he can bridge between now and next year at the Paris Olympics. Lyles capped off his own historic world championships by anchoring the men’s 4×100 relay team to victory Saturday night to capture his third gold medal in the sprints, joining Gay and Greene, but also track’s last true superstar, Jamaica’s Usain Bolt, who last accomplished that feat eight years ago.Lyles made no secret that he would like to fill the void left by Bolt – a once-in-a-generation character who transcends sports and stands out as much on red carpet...

BUDAPEST, Hungary (AP) — Victor Kiplangat of Uganda executed his game plan to near perfection, pulling away late in the race to win the men’s marathon Sunday on the last day of world championships.Kiplangat finished in a time of 2 hours, 8 minutes, 53 seconds to edge Maru Teferi of Israel by 19 seconds. Leul Gebresilase of Ethiopia took home bronze on a hot day where the temperature at the end soared to 28 degrees Celsius (82 degrees Fahrenheit). “It was hard today because it was so hot but I felt comfortable because I prepared well for this weather,” the 23-year-old Kiplangat said. “I always felt I had the power.”The heat and humidity led to 24 runners not finishing a race that ended in Heroes’ Square, including defending champion Tamirat Tola of Ethiopia. He said he dealt with stomach issues.“I was trying my best. I was feeling good until 30 kilometers,” he explained. “After that, I started to have a bad feeling in my stomach.”The top American finisher was Zach Panning...

Tracking Tropical Depression Ten

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 19:06:32 GMT

A new tropical cyclone formed in the Atlantic basin on Saturday, known as Tropical Depression Ten, and this system could have some big impacts on parts of Florida by midweek. For us in South Florida, we will feel some impacts from the system but it is currently forecast to be far enough to our west to experience fringe impacts.Before then, expect a mix of sun and clouds this Sunday with scattered showers and thunderstorms as a small area of low pressure moves onshore to the east coast. There will be a light breeze at times along with high temperatures into the low to mid 90s.Beginning Monday, our pattern will become influenced under TD Ten, which will likely be Tropical Storm Idalia by this time period. Winds will shift out of the south and that will do two things: increase moisture levels and temperatures. Winds will maintain this southerly component most of this week, meaning a hot week is ahead for us in South Florida with highs hovering into the mid 90s.This will also be paired ...

UK’s Dorries formally resigns as MP with blistering attack on Sunak

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 19:06:32 GMT

Tory stalwart and Boris Johnson loyalist Nadine Dorries announced her resignation from the U.K. House of Commons on Sunday “with immediate effect” while simultaneously attacking Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, whom she accused of abandoning “the fundamental principles of Conservatism.”The Treasury confirmed that it had been notified of the Mid Bedfordshire MP’s decision to formally step down; Chancellor Jeremy Hunt is expected to appoint Dorries to the historical position of Steward and Bailiff of the Three Hundreds of Chiltern next week, allowing the Tories to call a by-election.Dorries first announced her intention to quit in June, but after she was left off Johnson’s honors list and not given a seat in the House of Lords, she opted to remain in the Commons. In recent weeks calls had grown for her to quit, and the Liberal Democrats were set to put forward a bill for her suspension when parliament reconvenes on September 4.The MP pre-empted that move...

The Orioles couldn’t have prevented Félix Bautista’s injury. Did they do enough to brace for it? | ANALYSIS

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 19:06:32 GMT

Back in May, Orioles bench coach Fredi González briefly filled in for Brandon Hyde, expressing gratitude Baltimore’s manager left him with top bullpen arms Félix Bautista and Yennier Cano available for his one day in change.But reflecting on his days managing an Atlanta Braves bullpen with backend relievers Eric O’Flaherty, Jonny Venters and Craig Kimbrel — “O’Vembrel,” as he recalled — and their ability to effectively shorten a game by three innings, González noted Baltimore was operating a bit short.“I think we need one more guy,” González said.The Orioles never got one, and three months later, they’re down two. Bautista, Baltimore’s hulking All-Star closer fittingly known as “The Mountain,” will miss the foreseeable future with an injury to his ulnar collateral ligament, tears of which typically result in Tommy John elbow reconstruction. If that procedure proves necessary, Bautista l...
