Tudor dismisses end-of-season fatigue narrative, Juventus primed for Club World Cup challenge
PHILADELPHIA, June 21 (Reuters) - Juventus manager Igor Tudor played down suggestions that his team are showing signs of end-of-season fatigue, insisting his players are motivated and ready to compete as they prepare to face Moroccan side Wydad Casablanca in the Club World Cup on Sunday at Lincoln Financial Field. Juventus opened their campaign with an emphatic 5-0 victory over UAE's Al Ain, and a win against Wydad would secure their progression to the next stage. Such a result would set up a highly anticipated Group G showdown with Manchester City on Thursday, likely to determine the group winners. Speaking to reporters on Saturday, Tudor said he sees no signs of lethargy in his squad. "I don't see any signs of fatigue in the team; on the contrary, I see a lot of enthusiasm," he said. "It's a pleasure to see them enjoying playing together. They started the last match like it was a final. There's more confidence in them now, not just a little but a lot more. They're enjoying what we're building together, and that's a fantastic thing." Tudor, who took over in March following the dismissal of Thiago Motta, has overseen a remarkable turnaround at the Turin club. Juventus were floundering outside the Serie A top four and had been eliminated from all cup competitions when Tudor arrived. However, under his guidance, the team suffered just one further league defeat, finishing fourth to secure Champions League qualification. Reflecting on his tenure thus far, Tudor expressed pride in his players' professionalism and commitment. "I have great professionals who've been available from the first day to the last," he said. "There's been a lot of work behind the scenes, but we've also developed a better understanding of the game and what I ask of them as a coach." Despite the strong start in the Club World Cup, Tudor urged his squad to remain focused. "Juventus should be ambitious, but we must stay humble and work hard with our heads down," he said. "I always tell the players to focus on training and take each match as it comes. Maybe I bore them by saying it, but that's the mindset we need." Juventus' clash with Wydad Casablanca will be a key test of their progress under Tudor, with the Italian side looking to maintain momentum ahead of the knockout stages of the tournament.

Stunning gymnast Suni Lee gives two-word response to taunt about OG Anunoby dating rumors
Gymnast Suni Lee gave a hysterical response on Saturday to a heckle referencing the rumors of a relationship between her and Knicks star OG Anunoby. The lighthearted suggestions of a romance between the pair began back in April, when Lee was spotted sitting courtside for a Knicks-Suns game in which Anunoby ultimately scored 32 points. Actress Anne Hathaway was also present at that game. From there, some Knicks fans became convinced that Lee (who attended several playoff games too) was something of a good luck charm for Anuboby, with his teammate Josh Hart even saying on his 'Roommates Show' podcast that the Knicks 'need' Lee and Hathaway at every playoff matchup. Lee was talking about her Knicks fandom this weekend at Fanatics Fest when a fan interrupted her by shouting out Anunoby's name. 'OG!', he yelled. Lee looked a bit stunned as she laughed the comment off, before telling the fan that the comment was 'out of pocket.' Fan: 'OG!' Suni Lee: 'Outta pocket.' 💀 (via @FiresideKnicks, @FanaticsFest) — Legion Hoops (@LegionHoops) June 21, 2025 And some fans were on the gold medalist's side as they reacted to the remark. 'She was so embarrassed,' one wrote on X. 'Why they gotta do that,' a second said. And a third joked: 'OG finna hit her up after this.' Lee and Anunoby posed for some pictures after the Knicks beat the Magic on December 3, though the fellow athletes have not actually been spotted outside of Madison Square Garden together. Nonetheless, Lee became a Knicks fan favorite as they had their best postseason run in 25 years and went to the Eastern Conference Finals. Unfortunately, the Knicks lost to the Pistons in the first round on April 21 when Lee was seen sitting on Celebrity Row. Anunoby had a modest 10 points and shot 0-4 from three in that game. The Knicks also lost with Lee in attendance in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Finals vs. the Pacers, as Indiana pulled off a stunning comeback to win 138-135 in overtime. Anunoby performed better in that game, as he scored 16 points in the loss. While London-born Anunoby had an impressive year for the Knicks, Lee captured her second Olympic gold medal for Team USA last summer. After previously winning an all-around gold at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, she claimed another in the team event in Paris
