Fashion Network5 days ago

Canadian brand Psycho Bunny announced on Tuesday a multi-year partnership with American tennis player, Andy Roddick, deepening the brand's presence in the sport.
As part of the collaboration, Roddick, a former world No. 1 and US Open champion, will help bring Psycho Bunny's signature style and craftsmanship to a global audience. He will also advise on the brand's expanding presence in tennis.
Known for his competitive drive and powerful game, Roddick brings decades of on- and off-court credibility to the brand. Beyond his tennis career, he's become a defining voice in the sport as the host of Served, the top-ranked tennis podcast.
'Tennis has given me so much, and I've always believed in pushing boundaries—both in competition and in life,' said Roddick.
'Psycho Bunny's magnetic vibe, with its boldness and edge, speaks to my personality perfectly. I'm all about embracing individuality, and this partnership feels like a great way to express that fun side of me. Let's make some noise!'
Earlier this month, Psycho Bunny expanded its tennis roster by partnering with Arthur Rinderknech, building on its earlier collaboration with rising star Alexei Popyrin. Further reinforcing its commitment to the sport, the brand also signed a multi-year deal as the official athletic outfitter of the National Bank Open (NBO).
'Andy isn't just a tennis legend—he's a disruptor, a trailblazer, and someone who has always done things his own way,' said Anna Martini, CEO of Psycho Bunny.
'That's exactly what Psycho Bunny stands for. We're thrilled to have him as a partner in celebrating tennis culture.'

Cruz Azul thrash Vancouver Whitecaps to win CONCACAF Champions Cup

Angel Sepulveda scored twice for Cruz Azul, who led 4-0 at half-time in Mexico City and equal rivals Club America's record of seven CONCACAF titles. Sepulveda finished as the tournament's top-scorer with nine goals while the Whitecaps became the third Canadian team to reach the final and lose. It was also the third straight year in which an MLS team has been beaten by a Mexican club in the continental final. The Whitecaps had high hopes of becoming the first Canadian team to win the trophy having beaten two top Mexican teams, Monterrey and Pumas, on their journey to their first appearance in the final. But they were utterly outclassed by the Mexico City club. It was an uncharacteristically poor performance from Jesper Sorensen's Whitecaps, who were punished by some ruthless finishing from the Mexican side. Cruz Azul enjoyed home advantage at their Estadio Olimpico Universitario and they immediately brought the crowd to their feet with an eighth-minute opener. The Whitecaps gave the ball away in their own half and Carlos Rotondi pounced, threading the ball through to Ignacio Rivero, who took it first time with his left foot to fire into the far corner. It was another giveaway that led to the second, 20 minutes later, when Andres Cubas lost possession and Lorenzo Faravelli showed no hesitation as he unleashed a fierce drive which crashed in off the inside of the post. The Whitecaps, who beat Inter Miami in the semi-final to reach their first CONCACAF title game, looked nothing like the team that has impressed so much this season and they were soon in deeper trouble. The Vancouver defence were slow to react to a quick throw-in and Rotondi broke down the left and delivered a pinpoint low cross which Sepulveda deftly flicked past Yohei Takaoka. It was one-way traffic and Vancouver were punished again when a half-clearance fell to Polish midfielder Mateusz Bogusz just outside the box. The former Los Angeles FC player drilled home from the edge of the box. Cruz Azul went in at half-time having scored four goals from four attempts on goal and with their opponents looking shell-shocked. It got worse five minutes after the restart when Cubas was robbed again in deep midfield and from the counter-attack Jorge Sanchez crossed and Sepulveda rose superbly to head home his second and his ninth goal in the competition. "We took the final very seriously and it was a perfect performance. The truth is that we had the game wrapped up by half-time," said Mexican international Sepulveda. Daniel Rios, Vancouver's Mexican striker said the team had been impacted by playing at high altitude with the game played at 2,240 metres (7,350 feet) above sea level. "We made a couple of mistakes and they were very decisive every time they attacked. The altitude really affected us, we couldn't adapt and we're going home disappointed," he said. The victory gave Cruz Azul qualification for two FIFA competitions -- the 2025 Intercontinental Cup and the 2029 Club World Cup.

Bruce Springsteen in Le Monde: From disillusioned singer to anti-Trump activist

There is the singer who, for five decades, has taken his audience on a journey − from feverish rock anthems to harmonica ballads − "on the streets of a runaway American dream." And there is the president who, through decrees and diatribes, has promised his voters to "make America great again." Bruce Springsteen and Donald Trump, at 75 and 78 years old respectively, represent two contrasting visions of America that are now clashing – fiercely. During a European tour that brought him to France from May 24 to 31, the Born in the USA singer took aim at Trump, accusing him, as he said on May 24 in Lille, of being "corrupt and incompetent." In response, the Mar-a-Lago resident lashed back, calling him a "jerk" and a "dried out prune." Springsteen, who grew up in a working-class New Jersey family, seems to particularly irk the current president and New York-born "son of," likely because the singer conveys the pain and nostalgia that Trump exploits so relentlessly: one of small towns living in the shadow of declining factories. Searching through Le Monde 's archives is like traveling upriver. Springsteen's role as a disillusioned voice of America emerged as early as this newspaper's first article on the singer − published on November 22, 1975 − on the occasion of the release of his third album, Born to Run, which brought him worldwide fame. Claude Fléouter was captivated by the artist – "Bruce Springsteen seems to have come straight from [Times Square]" – and even more by his music, which he described as being "Thrown, shouted and howled out with fury and sensuality, [with poetic rush]," and as full of "passions and fantasies." To Fléouter, the album captured "the atmosphere of a New York street."

Sweden's Maja Stark wins 80th US Women's Open

Sweden's Stark put on a clinical display on the imposing Erin Hills course in Wisconsin, where back-to-back bogeys to finish her round proved inconsequential as her seven-under total of 281 gave her the victory with room to spare. She became the third player from Sweden to lift the trophy and the first since Annika Sorenstam won her third in 2006. "I started shaking a little bit more than I did yesterday, so it was more of a challenge today for sure," Stark said, adding that she was "so tired" after a classic US Open grind. Leading by one to start the day, Stark opened with five straight pars, benefitting from a lucky break at the fifth when her tee shot scooted through the left rough and settled in the fairway. She then pushed her lead to two strokes with her first birdie of the day at the par-three sixth, where she rolled in a 21-foot putt. She gave a stroke back at the seventh, where her tee shot found a fairway bunker, and was clinging to a one-stroke lead when she arrived at the 11th. That changed in moments however, Stark rattling in a 14-foot birdie putt at 11 shortly after Korda's three-putt bogey at the 13th dropped the American star to five-under, the sequence of events leaving Stark with a three-stroke cushion. Korda, who started the day three shots adrift, applied pressure with back to back birdies at the seventh and eighth. After her bogey at 13 she pulled a stroke back at the par-five 14th, where she had a look at eagle but settled for a birdie. Japan's Hinako Shibuno and Takeda also reached six-under with birdies at the 14th. But Stark held her nerve and extended her lead with a birdie of her own at 14, where her second shot from the fairway caught the slope of the green and rolled to a stop 11 feet below the pin. She left her eagle putt short, but tapped in for a birdie that pushed her lead to three strokes. Her rivals had already faltered -- Shibuno with a double-bogey at 15, Takeda with a bogey at 17 and Korda with a bogey at the last. Korda posted a one-under-par 71 and was joined on 283 by Takeda, who had three birdies to balance her bogey and a front-nine double bogey in a 72. 'Very complicated' Stark's nerves were finally showing when she went left off the tee at both the 17th and 18th. But she limited the damage to bogeys at both -- an impressive effort at the treacherous 18th where playing partner Julia Lopez Ramirez took a triple bogey eight that included a shot into the scoring tent. It was a disappointing day for the 22-year-old Spaniard, who trailed by one to start the day and carded a seven-over 79. Korda, owner of two major titles, notched her best finish in the US Open, improving on her tie for eighth in 2022. "Still very complicated," she said of her relationship with the championship. "It's just an absolute heartbreaker. Korda, 26, remains in search of a first victory since November, when she claimed the seventh LPGA title of her record-setting 2024 campaign. "Hopefully (I) can kind of build off of this, puting myself in contention at a major and obviously just slipping just short," Korda said. "Hurts a little, but I'm happy with the progress and hopefully I can continue like this."
