Kate Middleton and Princess Charlotte Share Adorable Fan Moment at Wimbledon
On Sunday, Kate Middleton made an appearance at Wimbledon for the second day in a row, this time joined by her husband, Prince William, and their two older children, Princess Charlotte and Prince George. Their youngest, Prince Louis, did not join the family in their box at the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club this time.
The group was there to watch Italy's Jannik Sinner compete against Spain's Carlos Alcaraz, with Princess Kate ultimately handing Sinner the Gentlemen's Singles Trophy for his win.
For the event, Kate wore a royal blue dress with a deep V-neckline, padded shoulders, and a long flowing skirt. On her feet, she wore a pair of Ralph Lauren Collection Celia Calfskin Pumps and accessorized with hoop earrings and a pendant necklace.
In the audience, the Princess of Wales beat the heat with a straw hat and a white fan. Charlotte was carrying her own matching fan, which she and her mom waved in between sharing comments on the game. The young princess was wearing a white dress trimmed in black with scalloped sleeves. She had her hair half up in braids and wore white patent leather Mary Janes.
Kate was appointed as patron of the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club in 2016 by Queen Elizabeth. On her lapel, the princess wore a purple and green ribbon in honor of her role. On Friday, she sported the same bow while watching Amanda Anisimova face off against Iga Swiatek in the women's singles final.
For that event, Kate dressed in a white blazer top belted at the waist with a pleated white skirt. She presented the Venus Rosewater Dish to Swiatek for her win.
On July 2, during a visit to Colchester Hospital in Essex, Kate opened up about figuring out her new life balance following cancer treatment. The princess announced she was in remission in January of this year after completing chemotherapy last September.
'You put on a sort of brave face, stoicism through treatment. Treatment's done, then it's like, 'I can crack on, get back to normal,'' she shared. 'But actually, the phase afterwards is really, really difficult.'
She continued, 'You have to find your new normal and that takes time...and it's a rollercoaster, it's not smooth, like you expect it to be. But the reality is you go through hard times.'

High-profile game ahead for 49ers
Next week, UNC Charlotte's 49ers football team starts fall camp, beginning the one-month countdown to the season opener. The 49ers' 2025 debut marks a first for the school: playing at Bank of America Stadium, home of the Carolina Panthers. On Aug. 29, Charlotte will play Appalachian State University at the NFL stadium, kicking off at 7 p.m. on the Friday of Labor Day weekend. It's part of the annual Duke's Mayo Classic series of early-season college football games. ESPNU will air the game, which brings more of a spotlight because the schedule is much busier on Aug. 28 (the day before) and Aug. 30 (the day after). 'We're seeing a lot of excitement,' Miller Yoho, spokesperson at the Charlotte Sports Foundation, the nonprofit that runs the Duke's Mayo Classic, told CBJ. 'A Friday night prime-time game will be special.' The sports foundation embraces regional rivalries like Charlotte-Appalachian State, Yoho added, pointing to the easy proximity for both schools' fans.

Charlotte FC win fourth straight with clean sheet vs. Toronto FC
After an hour of scoreless soccer, two goals for Charlotte FC in the span of five minutes helped the home side to a 2-0 win over visiting Toronto FC on Saturday night. In the sweltering summer heat, with the field temperature measured at 104 degrees, Charlotte FC (12-11-2, 38 points) kept cool with a match-winning goal by Idan Toklomati in the 60th minute. After a strong defensive start for both sides, Brandt Bronico sent in a cross from just outside the right corner of the 18-yard box, which Toklomati sent across the face of goalkeeper Sean Johnson to give the home side the lead. Then, five minutes later, United States international defender Tim Ream disrupted Toronto's defense at midfield, getting the ball to Wilfried Zaha in Charlotte's offensive half. Zaha found a streaking Kerwin Vargas down the right wing, who finished the shot calmly, going off a diving Johnson and into the back of the net. On his own flipping bobblehead night, Vargas celebrated the goal with a running backflip to give Charlotte a two-goal lead that Toronto (5-13-6, 21 points) would not threaten. It was not all good news for Charlotte. In the 70th minute, Bill Tuiloma went down in the middle of a Toronto offensive run and grabbed his right leg, which forced his substitution by manager Dean Smith. For Toronto, in the third minute of second-half stoppage time, Deybi Flores went up for the ball and collided with teammate Lazar Stefanovic. Flores stayed on the field for nearly a minute but did not leave the game despite a potential head injury for the substitute midfielder. Offensively, Charlotte kept on the counter-attack after going up two goals and Johnson preserved the lead with two saves, with a third stop by Sigurd Rosted. The victory for Charlotte FC gives the side four wins in a row, each win featuring multiple goals. Now the side from the Queen City takes a break from MLS play until Aug. 10. In the next two weeks, the club enters the Leagues Cup with matches against Liga MX sides Juarez, Guadalajara and Monterrey. Toronto has no matches until the league starts again on Aug. 9. --Field Level Media Field Level Media 2025 - All Rights Reserved

NBA Teams Set High Prices For Their Centers When The Lakers Called For Trades
NBA Teams Set High Prices For Their Centers When The Lakers Called For Trades originally appeared on Fadeaway World. The Los Angeles Lakers needed a starting-caliber center entering this offseason, and they got one in Deandre Ayton. Before Ayton became available, though, the Lakers were seemingly facing a bit of a problem, as NBA insider Brian Windhorst reported that teams with centers to trade had driven up the asking price. "Teams who had centers available were keeping their price for the Lakers high when they called, sources said, after they had established what they were willing to pay for Mark Williams (in February's rescinded trade)." The Lakers were sending Dalton Knecht, Cam Reddish, a 2031 first-round draft pick, and a 2030 pick swap to the Charlotte Hornets for Mark Williams. They would later rescind that trade due to concerns regarding Williams' health. With teams knowing the Lakers were willing to give up that kind of package for Williams at the deadline, it's not surprising that the asking price was high. They also knew they were dealing with a team that was desperate to get a quality center next to Luka Doncic. It was reported that some of the notable centers the Lakers were looking to trade for were Nic Claxton, Walker Kessler, and Robert Williams III. Claxton was being touted as a realistic target, but it's possible the Brooklyn Nets were one of the teams that Windhorst was referring to. As for Kessler, well, the Utah Jazz's asking price had proven to be too high for the Lakers for quite some time now. The Jazz reportedly would have wanted a package that included two first-round picks and Knecht for Kessler back in January. Keep in mind, this was before the Lakers were desperate to get a big, when they had Anthony Davis. The price might have even gone up further after Davis was traded for Doncic. When it comes to Williams, though, you'd think even the Lakers' desperation couldn't have driven up the price too much. He has played just 26 games in the last two seasons for the Portland Trail Blazers due to injury and should have been attainable without giving up assets of great value. Perhaps it was those health concerns that dissuaded the Lakers from making a move, not the asking price. In the end, the Lakers got their starter and backup for the center spot without having to give up any assets. Ayton was signed to a two-year, $16.6 million deal after the Trail Blazers bought out the last year of his contract, while Jaxson Hayes returned on a one-year deal worth $3.4 million. It's not a great rotation, but it isn't terrible either. The Lakers were forced to start Hayes last season after rescinding the Williams trade. While he fared fairly well during the regular season, it was crystal clear that head coach JJ Redick didn't trust him in the playoffs. Hayes averaged just 7.8 minutes per game in the first-round series against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Redick all but removed him from the rotation, and the Lakers needed an upgrade. Despite all his flaws, Ayton is a significant upgrade over Hayes. He averaged 14.4 points, 10.2 rebounds, 1.6 assists, 0.8 steals, and 1.0 blocks per game for the Trail Blazers in 2024-25. Lakers' President of Basketball Operations and General Manager Rob Pelinka believes Ayton is an ideal player to add to their core. There is very little risk involved here due to the nature of the contract, so even if things don't work out, this won't go down as a disastrous story was originally reported by Fadeaway World on Jul 8, 2025, where it first appeared.
