Maria Sharapova recalls when Andy Roddick ‘pulled a trick' on her first visit to Paris: ‘Looked like they're from Moulin Rouge'
Tennis great Maria Sharapova recalled in a podcast with Andy Roddick how the American ace once 'pulled a trick' on her while they were competing in Paris. Speaking on the podcast 'Served with Andy Roddick', Sharapova said she was about '19 or 20' and on her first visit to Paris. 'I'm setting context here. Place Vendome (an upscale area of Paris), I was staying at the Park Hyatt for the very first time,' she said. 'You (Roddick) were staying at that hotel. And because I didn't know the area, I said, 'Hey, Andy, you've been here before. Can you give me a few restaurant recommendations for dinner?' And he's like, 'Oh yeah, no, absolutely. There's one around the corner. It's called Hotel Coast.' 'And I was like, oh, great. So, you know, it's my dad and, you know, a few of my male team members, my trainer, coach, and physical therapist: four boys and me. So we walk into the… It's a hotel and it's, like, meant to be a trendy hotel. I didn't know it at the time. We walked in and they sat us down. 'And every server, I mean, looks like they're from Moulin Rouge. And I was like, this guy must be sh**ting me. He really, he just, he purposely took me as a 19-year-old to this, it looked like a show. Like really short skirts and a lot of cleavage. And my team was like, Andy, Andy is the best. I stood up and I walked out. Because I thought you were pulling a trick on me,' Sharapova said, laughing. Roddick pleaded innocence, replying: 'I don't know what kind of room you and your team requested there. Every meal I've ever had there was respectable. The food was great. Nice little music, dim lighting…' However, Roddick — known for being a prankster on the tour — conceded 'That sounds like something I might have done. I'm not going to fully deny it.' Sharapova reflected on a range of topics during the free-wheeling interview and also opened up on motherhood. She said how 'depending on the mood' she calls her son, Theodore by two names. 'We chose a name that would sound similar in both languages. I use Theodore when it's like, let's get this shit done. Because I just, I don't have an extra minute of mental capacity, not physical, mental,' she said. 'And it's Theo every time else. Sharapova also touched upon how parenthood has changed the meaning of Saturdays for her since her playing days. When someone asked me, 'What is your favourite day of the week?' Saturday was my favourite day of the week. Because that is a Grand Slam final. That's where I want it to be. And now when Saturday comes along and you're like, where is my nanny? There's no school. There's no nanny. You're like, I don't know if Saturday's my favourite day.' She added: 'A typical Saturday… it all kind of depends. We travel quite a bit. Our life, I mean, Alexander's family is in the UK. So we spend a lot of time in Europe. In the States, it's all, you know, in California, it's the farmer's market. We like to cook. We're homebodies. So it's not, I wouldn't say it's super exciting, but it's very family oriented.'

Retiring Diogo Jota's Jersey Was Incredible Gesture From Liverpool: Stephen Warnock
Former Liverpool player Stephen Warnock honoured the late Diogo Jota's legacy and praised the club for retiring his No. 20 shirt, calling the decision 'something that has been echoed globally as the right thing to do. In honour and memory of Jota across all levels, Liverpool retired squad number 20. Jota and his brother Andre Silva passed away in a car accident in the Spanish province of Zamora. 'When you think of Diogo Jota, the constant smile he played with is exactly what you want to see from footballers — someone who truly enjoyed every day on the pitch. He never took his football for granted, especially being at Liverpool. "Jota understood the struggles he overcame since childhood to reach the very top, and he genuinely appreciated the career he was given. That showed in every single game he played," Warnock said on JioHotstar. "The 'Forever 20' will appear on Liverpool's shirts, with the club retiring the number as well. This leaves a legacy — it was an incredible gesture from Liverpool Football Club, and the decision has been echoed globally as the right thing to do," he added. Warnock further discussed Liverpool's approach to replacing Trent Alexander-Arnold's creative presence. The 26-year-old England international has signed for Real Madrid, leaving Liverpool after 354 appearances and 23 goals for the club, as well as lifting eight major honours alongside his teammates, which consist of two Premier League titles, the Champions League, FIFA Club World Cup, UEFA Super Cup, FA Cup and two League Cups. "What was absolutely vital for Liverpool, knowing they would be without Trent Alexander-Arnold, was figuring out how to replace that creativity. Yes, he is a right-back, but he so often steps into midfield—sometimes a match is flat, and he's the one who unlocks it with a killer pass or a moment of vision. You need more players like that. With his absence, you recreate that by bringing in someone higher up the pitch who can provide that kind of spark. "Frimpong coming in at right-back—I don't see it as just a traditional right-back role, but more of a utility position. And with Kerkez on the left, I've watched him for a couple of years and believe he's the ideal Liverpool type of player," said Warnock. The 43-year-old also addressed questions about Mohamed Salah's longevity and drive, saying, "There will always be questions about whether he can maintain his performance at his age, and if he still has the hunger and desire. But you can already see that he absolutely does. That hunger and desire are what make him elite—one of the best players in world football. "No matter how wealthy he is, how well he's paid, or how well he's looked after, it's about delivering week after week. I believe he'll be back and scoring a hat-trick of goals again."

"Sachin Tendulkar Should Play Little Faster": Ex-India Star Reveals Intriguing Chat With Rahul Dravid
RP Singh has been part of several big campaigns for the Indian cricket teams. The left-arm pacer played 14 Tests, 58 ODIs and 10 T20Is at a time when Sachin Tendulkar, Rahul Dravid were still active cricketers. RP has seen the two cricketers up close and recently narrated an interesting incident on the two. "There was a Ranji Trophy match going on in Meerut, Karnataka vs Uttar Pradesh. Rahul Dravid bhai had come to play and scored 199 runs. That night, we went to dinner at someone's house. India's match was going on that day, and Sachin paaji was batting. He was playing a run-a-ball innings. We were both sitting on the side, and people were saying, 'Sachin should play a little faster.' But he was playing according to the situation of the match. Rahul bhai whispered in my ear, 'If they are saying so much to him, then how much would they have said to me?'" RP Singh said on JioHotstar special 'Cheeky Singles'. Rudra Pratap Singh also recalled the moment when a fan tossed a cake towards him and asked him to cut it during India's victory parade in Mumbai after the fabled T20 World Cup title victory in the inaugural edition of the tournament in 2007. More than seventeen years ago, India etched their names in the history books by lifting the inaugural T20 World Cup title in front of a jam-packed crowd at the Wanderers Stadium in Johannesburg. Under Mumbai's gloomy sky, India held an open bus victory parade, and fans turned up in numbers to welcome the crowned champions. The 39-year-old shared a less-heard story that took place during the moment of jubilation. "We won the T20 World Cup in South Africa, celebrated there, and then landed in Dubai, where a few people congratulated us for lifting the trophy. When we finally landed in Mumbai, we thought we had achieved something special, but the celebration parade was beyond anything I had imagined," RP Singh said in the latest episode of "The roads were closed, and people were throwing things, chocolates, and even a small cake that someone tossed towards me saying, 'Please hold it and cut it.' I told them, 'Don't do this, it might fall.' It was raining, yet the crowds' energy was electric, with people celebrating wildly alongside us," he added. In the final, it was India's arch-rival, Pakistan, who stood as the final hurdle between MS Dhoni 's side and the coveted title. In a nerve-wracking thriller, a collective effort from the players got India across the line, crowning them as the first team to clinch the title. He played a pivotal role in steering India to the famed title. Rudra Pratap spearheaded India's lethal pace attack and concluded the tournament as the second-highest wicket-taker with 12 scalps. He announced his international retirement in 2018 after making 82 appearances for India across all formats and scythed 124 wickets.
