French Open: Lorenzo Musetti beats Frances Tiafoe to reach the French Open semifinals
PARIS — Lorenzo Musetti used his sleek one-handed backhand and sprint-then-slide court coverage to reach his first semifinal at the French Open , and second at a Grand Slam tournament, by beating Frances Tiafoe 6-2, 4-6, 7-5, 6-2 Tuesday in the same stadium where he won a bronze medal at last year's Olympics.

French Open: Lorenzo Musetti beats Frances Tiafoe to reach the French Open semifinals
PARIS (AP) — Lorenzo Musetti used his sleek one-handed backhand and sprint-then-slide court coverage to reach his first semifinal at the French Open, and second at a Grand Slam tournament, by beating Frances Tiafoe 6-2, 4-6, 7-5, 6-2 Tuesday in the same stadium where he won a bronze medal at last year's Olympics. The eighth-seeded Musetti, a 23-year-old Italian, improved to 19-3 this season on red clay. When the match ended, he rolled up the right sleeve of his green shirt and flexed his biceps. He'll face defending champion Carlos Alcaraz or Tommy Paul on Friday for a berth in the championship match. Musetti and No. 1 Jannik Sinner — who faces unseeded Alexander Bublik in the quarterfinals Wednesday — gave Italy two male quarterfinalists at Roland-Garros for the first time since 1973. Tiafoe also was part of a rare duo: He and Paul were the first American men to get to the round of eight in Paris since Andre Agassi in 2003 — and the first duo to do it in the same year since Jim Courier and Pete Sampras in 1996. And the 15th-seeded Tiafoe, a 27-year-old from Maryland, made it all the way to the quarterfinals without dropping a single set. But he was not quite up to the task against Musetti, who was a semifinalist at Wimbledon in 2024, and it showed right away. Wearing a chain around his neck with a pendant reading 'Big Foe' in capital letters, Tiafoe missed all eight first serves in his initial service game and sent a backhand wide to give Musetti a break and a 2-0 lead. He looked up at his coach, David Witt — who's worked with Venus Williams and Jessica Pegula in the past — and complained about the wind. The deficit was 3-0 after 13 minutes. By the time that set was over, 21 of Musetti's 30 points had arrived via mistakes by Tiafoe, nine forced and 12 unforced. Two-time U.S. Open semifinalist Tiafoe's first break delivered a 2-1 lead in the second, and when he smacked a forehand winner to even the match at a set apiece, he let out a roar and shouted, 'Let's go! Let's go!' During that set, Musetti was warned for unsportsmanlike conduct for kicking a tennis ball that inadvertently hit a linesperson. Unlike most top-level tennis tournaments, which rely on electronic line-calling, there are still humans on court at Roland-Garros to decide whether shots land in or out. The point of the match came in the third set's sixth game. Musetti stretched wide of the doubles alley near the net to reach a shot at a seemingly impossible angle. Tiafoe then did the same in response, sending his near the baseline. Musetti ran and, with his back to the net, twisted his body to somehow flick a low ball back with a half-swing. It worked, though, and Tiafoe — perhaps startled to see the point wasn't over — netted an awkward, shoulder-high volley. That set swung Musetti's way when he broke in its last game. On a 12-stroke exchange, Tiafoe tried an ill-advised and ill-struck drop shot that the speedy Musetti got to, conjuring up a down-the-line backhand winner. Now it was his turn to celebrate, punching the air and yelling. Musetti broke again to lead 2-0 in the fourth, and soon it was over. He is now 13-4 in his French Open career, and three of those losses came against an opponent ranked No. 1 — Novak Djokovic twice, Alcaraz once. The only way he'll need to deal with the top-ranked man again in Paris is if it's his pal Sinner standing across the net on Sunday with the trophy in the offing. ___

Could Imane Khelif Be Stripped Of Olympic Gold Medal? What To Know
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Olympic champion Imane Khelif is back in headlines after a media outlet alleged that a "leaked" medical report, as they described it, showed the Algerian boxer's biological sex was male, rather than female. The report, from 3 Wire Sports, is unconfirmed. Newsweek has reached out to a legal representative for Khelif via email for comment and also to Angela Carini, who withdrew from a fight with Khelif at the 2024 Paris Games. The Context Khelif, 26, won women's welterweight gold at the Paris Olympics amid an intense row over gender eligibility. She had previously competed in the Tokyo Olympics but was disqualified from the 2023 World Championships by the International Boxing Association (IBA) for allegedly failing gender eligibility tests. Khelif was then cleared to compete in the Paris Olympics by the International Olympic Committee (IOC). The IOC stripped the IBA of its status as the sport's amateur governing body in June 2023 over concerns about how it was run. The IOC said that competitors were eligible to compete in the women's division for Paris if the gender on their passports said that they were female. Imane Khelif kisses her gold medal on August 9, 2024, after winning the women's boxing 66 kg category at the Olympic Games in Paris, France. Imane Khelif kisses her gold medal on August 9, 2024, after winning the women's boxing 66 kg category at the Olympic Games in Paris, To Know The row over Khelif's biological sex became prominent on social media during the 2024 Paris Games after she faced Italy's Carini in a women's welterweight preliminary bout. The match lasted 46 seconds, with Khelif landing two punches before Carini withdrew and was visibly emotional. IOC spokesperson Mark Adams said at the time that Khelif was "born female, was registered female, lived her life as a female, boxed as a female, has a female passport." The IOC has maintained that this is not a transgender issue. Khelif later filed a legal complaint in France for alleged cyber harassment regarding statements about her gender. The 3 Wire Sports report, published on June 1, 2025, alleged that the outlet was the only one to have seen chromosome tests given amid the IBA's 2022 and 2023 world championships. The report includes a screenshot of the alleged test results, which appear to have been cut in half. It is unclear how the outlet accessed these test results, or if they are legitimate. The article claims that Khelif had a male karyotype (an individual's complete set of chromosomes). Figures including Harry Potter author J.K. Rowling and former college swimmer Riley Gaines have reacted to the allegations on social media. Gaines, a conservative activist, wrote on X (formerly Twitter): "To all the people that insisted Imane Khelif was a woman because his passport said so, You were wrong. We were right. Sincerely, People with functioning eyes and a shred of honesty." Rowling posted on X: "I never said and never believed Khelif was trans. I knew* he was a man. The gender activists who created a political climate in which sex testing was seen as 'bigoted' are as culpable as the IOC for the travesty that ensued. *via a highly credible source who saw his test results." On May 30, World Boxing announced that all athletes over the age of 18 who want to participate in its competitions will need to undergo testing to determine their "sex at birth" and "eligibility to compete." World Boxing mentioned Khelif by name in the announcement. On June 2, the organization's President Boris van der Vorst formally apologized for this, through a letter to the Algerian Boxing Federation. In a letter seen by the Associated Press, he said: "I am writing to you all personally to offer a formal and sincere apology for this and acknowledge that her privacy should have been protected." Will Khelif Be Stripped of Her Gold Medal? In an email shared with Newsweek, an IOC spokesperson said: "The IOC has always made it clear that eligibility criteria are the responsibility of the respective International Federation. The factors that matter to sports performance are unique to each sport, discipline, and/or event. We await the full details of how sex testing will be implemented in a safe, fair and legally enforceable way." Doraine Lambelet Coleman, a Thomas L. Perkins Distinguished Professor of Laws at Duke Law School, told Newsweek over email: "The IOC would not revoke medals won by athletes who were eligible according to the rules it set for the boxing competition in Paris. Unlike the eligibility rules set by the IBA and now WB, those rules did not require competitors to be biologically female." What Happens Next In a March interview with the British broadcaster ITV, Khelif made clear that she intends to compete for a second Olympic gold medal at the Los Angeles Games in 2028. In the same interview, when asked about President Donald Trump forcing schools and athletic organizations to ban transgender girls and women from competing in women's sports, she said: "I will give you a straightforward answer: the U.S. president issued a decision related to transgender policies in America. I am not transgender. This does not concern me, and it does not intimidate me. That is my response." Khelif has not directly responded to the news reports that have circulated this week.
