2018 Open Starts Today, Geraint Thomas Takes Stage 12, Extends Lead at
Tour de France, Kazakh Figure Skater Denis Ten Stabbed to Death and Dodgers
Acquire Machado in Trade
The 2018 Open Championship at Carnoustie Golf Links in Angus, Scotland kicked
off today. Round one has so far seen Tiger Woods starting off strong with
multiple birdies but at press time has just scored an unexpected close-range
bogey on the 13th green. 2017 Open winner Jordan Spieth was three under par and
within two strokes of the lead as he began the 15th hole, but a series of
miscalculations left him finishing +1. Kevin Kisner currently tops the leaderboard with a -5.
Welsh cyclist Geraint Thomas won his second
consecutive stage at the Tour de France, taking stage 12 on Alpe d'Huez today. Thomas is
the first Briton to win a stage on Alpe d’Huez and the first man to win while
wearing a yellow jersey, according to a report in the Telegraph. Thomas, who is currently leading the race for Team Sky,
commented on the stage 12 victory:
"Not even
in my wildest dreams did I think I would win on here," Thomas said.
"It's one of those things that will stay with me for the rest of my
life."
Kazakh figure
skater, Denis Ten, who won a bronze medal at Sochi 2014, died in a hospital
after being stabbed by two men trying to steal his car mirrors, according to CNN. Writing on Twitter, American skater Adam Rippon paid tribute to Ten:
My skating
friend, @Tenis_Den, passed away today. He was so kind to everyone and a huge
inspiration to me and so many other people. Murdered in the streets of
Kazakhstan. Denis, thank you for showing us how to be a champion. Your time
with us was way too short. Love you forever.
ESPN reports that the Los Angeles Dodgers acquired All-Star
Manny Machado from the Baltimore Orioles in exchange for five prospects last
night. Dan Duquette, the Orioles’ executive vice president of baseball
operations commented on the trade:
"Obviously,
it's a bittersweet day for our organization. We watched Manny grow up in our franchise
the past eight years. We all know what an exceptional talent he is, from the
great plays that he made to his elite hitting. He's always going to be an
important part of our club's history."
The five
prospects the Orioles get in return are: outfielder Yusniel Diaz, right-hander
Dean Kremer, third baseman Rylan Bannon, righty Zach Pop and third baseman
Breyvic Valera.
