Canada's McIntosh wins second gold at world swimming championships
SINGAPORE - Canada's Summer McIntosh has won her second gold medal at the world swimming championships, taking the women's 200-metre individual medley on Monday. The 18-year-old Toronto native touched the wall in two minutes 6.69 seconds — nearly two seconds ahead of American Alex Walsh, who claimed silver in 2:08.58. Fellow Canadian Mary-Sophie Harvey, of Laval, Que., won bronze in 2:09.15. McIntosh holds the world record in the event and was the heavy favourite heading into the final. This win adds to the 400 freestyle gold she earned on the opening day of competition. McIntosh is targeting five individual golds over the eight-day meet. This report by The Canadian Press was first published July 28, 2025.

Video: Bella Mir stays unbeaten in MMA, makes opponent squeal with slick finish
Bella Mir made a brief parachute back into MMA on Sunday and notched another victory for her undefeated record. Mir, the daughter of former two-time UFC heavyweight champion Frank Mir, told MMA Junkie in June after a UFC BJJ event that she wants to be as active as possible across a variety of combat sports, with her main focus being on the wrestling mats as she pushed to make the 2028 Olympic team. In the interim, however, Mir (4-0) got back in the cage Fury FC Challenger Series 14 in Houston and overwhelmed an outmatched Stephanie Calderon (2-1). Mir isolated a limb for a nasty submission know to some as the "chicken wing," getting the tap at the 3:58 mark of Round 1. Check out a replay of Mir's victory below (via X): 'That's folkstyle wrestling right there – that's a chicken wing,' Mir said in her post-fight interview. 'I'm just glad I got to show my striking this fight because I just wanted to prove to people I could bang with really tough strikers like Stephanie. I see this as a really big win.' The 21-year-old has admitted that her eventual goal is to make it to the UFC and follow in the footsteps of her father by claiming a championship. She is taking the steady approach, however, and Mir said it could be a while before she gets back into an MMA setting in pursuit of her fifth professional win. 'Maybe next year, we'll go back at it again,' Mir said. 'This was fun. I can't wait.'

Lionel Messi, wife Antonela Roccuzzo 'caught' on Coldplay 'Kiss Cam'
Lionel Messi and his wife get the Coldplay spotlight, not like that other couple. Messi and his wife, Antonela Roccuzzo, were briefly serenaded by Coldplay during a concert in Miami on Sunday, July 27. Messi and his wife attended the show at Hard Rock Stadium, and found themselves in the spotlight – far from that one viral Coldplay moment. Coldplay x MessiNo words, no interviews — just greatness.#Messi #Coldplay #GOAT #InterMiami #ASkyFullOfStars "Well, Leo, my beautiful brother. You and your wife are looking so fine," Coldplay frontman Chris Martin sang. "Thanks for coming today, to see our band play. The No. 1 sports person of all time." Messi, who doesn't speak English, appeared to understand Coldplay's tribute. He smiled, waved and clapped in response with his arm around his wife. They attended the concert with their three sons Thiago, Mateo, and Ciro. Messi, the Argentine World Cup champion playing with Inter Miami in Major League Soccer, returns to action on Wednesday, July 30, when his team begins the 2025 Leagues Cup tournament against Mexican club Atlas at Chase Stadium in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.
