Master Pogacar has Tour de France peloton under his thumb
LA PLAGNE, France - Such is Tadej Pogacar's domination on the Tour de France that what began as a frantic chase for stage wins has morphed into a racing masterclass - a reigning champion pulling the strings on his way to a fourth title. Since the Slovenian declared he would not grant any freebies after he won four of the opening 13 stages, he has not crossed the line first and Friday's final mountain trek showed that he might have changed his mind along the way. The UAE Emirates-XRG rider was just content with setting the pace in the final climb of Friday's 19th stage, a short yet brutal Alpine trek to La Plagne, letting Thymen Arensman celebrate a second victory this year after the Dutchman battled solo on the steep slopes through episodes of heavy rain in sub-10 degrees Celsius temperatures. The contrast with Pogacar's almost effortless style on the last mountain day was striking as the three-time champion controlled chief rival Jonas Vingegaard, who appeared resigned to defeat. "It started to be very long, especially with the weather today. I just want to go on the (team) bus and go take a hot shower, Pogacar told reporters. "I tried (to attack once) as soon as (the) Decathlon (team) stopped with their hard pace. It was too early and nobody contributed to the chase of Arensman. So I just kept the pace and I was counting down the kilometres to Paris. "I just set the pace that I felt comfortable with and if somebody would attack from my wheel, then I could still accelerate."

The same quiet authority was on display on Thursday on the Col de la Loze: no fireworks, just total control as he let Australian Ben O'Connor ride to the stage win. Pogacar leads the Danish rider by 4:24 and only a major incident would see him not win the race for the fourth time after his 2020, 2021 and 2024 triumphs. Pogacar is now unlikely to be bothered by Vingegaard's Visma-Lease a Bike team, with the biggest scare over the last couple of days being when he bumped into the rear of one of their team cars. Saturday's stage is hilly but does not provide any major difficulty for the overall leaders. Sunday's stage to Paris, while it features three ascents of the Butte Montmartre, will not be tough enough to shake up the general classification. Asked if he was bored - having been sitting on a cushion of over four minutes since Stage 13 - as the race approaches the end, Pogacar said: "I'm obviously tired. It hasn't been an easy Tour. People have been attacking me from left, right and centre. "From day one to the end, I've had to stay focused and motivated. The main priority was always the yellow jersey. "Sometimes, all you can do is keep counting down the distance to the finish line. That's how it is." For most riders, counting down the kilometres to the finish line on the Champs Elysees is an act of survival. For Pogacar, it's the ultimate luxury. REUTERS

From football to tennis to the NBA, Emirates tapping the power of sports
[SINGAPORE] There are perhaps few brands out there that are as omnipresent on the global sporting stage as Emirates. With its logo emblazoned across Arsenal and Real Madrid football jerseys, at tennis stadiums from Melbourne to Madrid, and even courtside at NBA matches, the Dubai-based carrier has steadily built a sponsorship portfolio that is as vast as its flight network. But it is football that stands out for Emirates, as its ability to 'captivate and inspire' audiences around the world makes it one of the most 'commercially effective' platforms for the airline, said Boutros Boutros, the company's executive vice-president for corporate communications, marketing and brand. 'As one of the world's most popular sports, football offers unparalleled reach, connecting over five billion fans across continents,' he said in an e-mail interview, ahead of Arsenal's pre-season friendly against Italian club AC Milan at the National Stadium on Wednesday (Jul 23) night. This is the first of two games at this week's Singapore Festival of Football. The Gunners (Arsenal's nickname) will also play fellow English Premier League (EPL) team Newcastle United at the same venue on Sunday. 'The game provides year-round engagement opportunities, with matches and tournaments watched by millions worldwide,' he added.

Sign Up Sign Up 'Football also helps us build deeper emotional equity with our customers, as the passion and loyalty of fans often extend to the brands they associate with their favourite teams.' Emirates executive VP Boutros Boutros says football's ability to captivate and inspire audiences globally makes it one of the most commercially effective platforms for the airline. PHOTO: EMIRATES Emirates began its relationship with Arsenal back in 2006, with its current sponsorship deal lasting until 2028 – making it the longest-running deal in the history of the EPL. The deal includes the naming rights to Arsenal's Emirates Stadium in North London. The airline's ties with AC Milan are similarly deep and goes back to 2007. Its logo currently appears on the men's first team and academy kits, with the deal extending to 2031. Arsenal and AC Milan are flagship assets in a football portfolio that also includes Real Madrid, Benfica, Olympique Lyonnais, and England's FA Cup, alongside domestic leagues such as the UAE Pro League. 'Partnering with renowned clubs like Arsenal and AC Milan provides Emirates with strategic value by connecting our brand to multi-generational, global audiences,' said Boutros.

'Tennis allows us to engage with premium audiences and reinforces our association with excellence and prestige,' said Boutros. That prestige is mirrored in the company's involvement in golf and even horse racing which 'helps us cultivate relationships with high-net-worth individuals while celebrating tradition and heritage'. Beyond sports, Emirates also sponsors arts and culture initiatives, including music, film and literature events. As consumer habits evolve, Emirates has adapted its activations to match. 'We have expanded live football coverage on our in-flight entertainment system, added behind-the-scenes content, trivia games and real-time notifications,' said Boutros. 'We also work with clubs and leagues to create exclusive digital content, virtual-reality experiences and multi-view streaming options.'

PHOTO: ADIDAS SINGAPORE Calculated playbook At Emirates, sponsorship decisions are not made lightly as it employs a cross-functional team spanning marketing, communications and commercial departments to evaluate each opportunity. Boutros cited the Porsche Singapore Classic golf tournament as a successful recent example. 'It resonates with a sophisticated demographic – business leaders and frequent flyers – and provides strong on-ground visibility and digital storytelling across South-east Asia, Japan and South Korea,' he said. He also said that horse racing events helps the carrier cultivate relationships with high-net-worth individuals while celebrating tradition and heritage, particularly though events such as the Dubai World Cup. Emirates is also constantly exploring opportunities within some emerging sports sectors, such as women's sports and esports 'These areas have demonstrated rapid growth and increasing global influence, and resonate strongly with modern audiences,' said Boutros. Earlier this month, Emirates and World Rugby announced a new partnership which will see the airline become an official partner of the Women's Rugby World Cup 2025, which begins on Aug 22 in England. While Emirates' current sponsorship empire is vast, the airline is playing the long game and expanding its portfolio – one shirt, stadium, and game at a time. Tickets for the Singapore Festival of Football can be purchased on Ticketek.

Singapore Airlines tops Travel + Leisure's 2025 international airlines list again
FB screengrab/ Singapore Airlines SINGAPORE: Singapore Airlines has taken the top spot in Travel + Leisure 's World's Best Awards survey for best international airlines in 2025, based on votes from the magazine's readers around the world. The airline earned a score of 91.32, slightly up from last year's 90.89, when it also topped the list. This year, it was also recognised as a WBA Super Hall of Fame honoree. A Hall of Fame designation means the airline has been voted onto the World's Best Awards list for the past 10 consecutive years. Last month, the airline also ranked second in the 'Oscars of the aviation industry' by United Kingdom-based airline consultancy Skytrax . According to the magazine, one traveller said she would choose Singapore Airlines for every trip if she could. Another described it as their 'best travel experience to date.' Middle Eastern airlines dominated the list, with Qatar Airways placing second with a score of 90.59, Emirates coming in third with 89.98, and Etihad Airways taking the ninth spot with 84.93. Japan's All Nippon Airways (ANA) and Japan Airlines followed closely, ranking fourth and fifth with scores of 89.72 and 89.53, respectively. Rounding out the top 10 were France's La Compagnie (87.81) at sixth, Air New Zealand (85.30) at seventh, Virgin Atlantic Airways (85.17) at eighth, and Fiji Airways (84.89) in tenth place. The World's Best Awards survey gathered responses from nearly 180,000 T+L readers, who rated airlines based on cabin comfort, in-flight service, customer service, and value. For each category, they selected a rating from excellent to poor, and the final score was the average across all categories. Singapore Airlines' home base, Changi Airport, was also recognised in the magazine's favourite international airports of 2025. It ranked second on the list, scoring 95.20, and was a WBA Hall of Fame honoree. Last year, the airport also ranked second with a score of 94.32, with the same WBA Hall of Fame designation. /TISG Read also: Cathay members to get S$160 off economy round-trip flights as Cathay Pacific celebrates top Skytrax 2025 ranking () => { const trigger = if ('IntersectionObserver' in window && trigger) { const observer = new IntersectionObserver((entries, observer) => { => { if ( { lazyLoader(); // You should define lazyLoader() elsewhere or inline here // Run once } }); }, { rootMargin: '800px', threshold: 0.1 }); } else { // Fallback setTimeout(lazyLoader, 3000); } });
