Tennis player Harriet Dart apologizes for saying opponent should put on deodorant during match
British tennis player Harriet Dart has apologized after asking the chair umpire to tell her opponent to put on deodorant because she 'smells really bad.'
Dart lost 6-0, 6-3 to French player Lois Boisson in the first round of the clay-court Rouen Open on Tuesday, and was picked up by a microphone during a changeover telling the umpire: 'Can you tell her (Boisson) to wear deodorant? … Because she smells really bad.'
After the footage spread on social media, Dart posted an apology on Instagram and said 'it was a heat-of-the-moment comment that I truly regret.'
'That's not how I want to carry myself, and I take full responsibility,' she wrote. 'I have a lot of respect for Lois and how she competed today. I'll learn from this and move forward.'
Boisson, who made her first WTA Tour appearance of the season and is working her way back up from 303rd in the rankings after injuries, gave a light-hearted response. She posted a photo on Instagram of her on court with a Dove deodorant edited into the frame above her hand, tagging the company and writing that they 'apparently need a collab.'

Greg Cote's Hot Button Top 10: Marchand Miracle rescues Cats, NBA, Coco, death of amateurism & more
GREG COTE'S HOT BUTTON TOP 10 (JUNE 8): WHAT IN SPORTS HAS GRABBED US THIS WEEK: Our Sunday Hot Button Top 10 notes column brings you what's on our minds, locally and nationally but from a Miami perspective and accentuating stuff that's big, weird, damnable, funny or otherwise worth needling as the sports week just past pivots to the week ahead. Welcome to the 106th edition of your HB10: 1. PANTHERS: Marchand Miracle lifts Cats in double-OT, ties Stanley Cup: Florida trailed twice in Game 2 Friday night and was at grave risk of going down 2-0 to Edmonton in the Stanley Cup Final -- a hole that has buried 91 percent of teams in SCF history. But Brad Marchand rescued the Panthers with the Marchand Miracle, a goal in the second overtime for a 5-4 road win and 1-1 series heading back to South Florida for Game 3 Monday night. Two OT games to begin promise a crazy-good series likely to go the distance as the Cats claw for a repeat-championships and the Oilers fight for that club's first title since 1990 and the first-ever to heal what's missing on Connor McDavid's otherwise impeccable resume'. 2. NBA: Thrilling upset launches unconventional Finals: Oklahoma City and Indiana both chasing their first NBA championship made for a dubious national ratings sell, and the Knicks' sudden firing of coach Tom Thibodeau glommed attention as the Finals began. But Game 1 had to be a spike on interest as Pacers rallied for a 111-110 road upset over Thunder on Tyrese Haliburton's last-second jumper. League MVP Shai Gilgeous-Alexander rained 38 in the loss as Pacers overcame 24 turnovers. Game 2 is Sunday/tonight back in OKC in a Finals that suddenly seems must-watch. 3. TENNIS: Coco Gauff wins French Open! Another 1-2 final today: Heavyweight championship weekend at the French Open with Nos. 1 vs. 2 finals for both the women and men. Saturday, No. 2 Coco Gauff of Delray Beach (90 minutes north of Miami) beat top-seed Aryna Sabalenka, 6-7, 6-2, 6-4, for Gauff's second career major at just age 21. Next Serena? Promising start. (Gauff en route to the crown in Paris had beaten French Cinderella Lois Boisson in the semis after earlier defeating Marie Bouzkova, girlfriend of Panthers star Aleksander Barkov.) In Sunday's men's final top-seed Cheatin' Jannik Sinner faces number two Carlos Alcaraz. 4. MONEY: Colleges directly paying athletes an historic breakthrough: Beginning on July 1 Division I schools may start directly paying players in all sports -- a first in NCAA history. It is the result of a federal judge approving a House vs. NCAA settlement that had been debated for several months. It means all athletes, but let by football and basketball, may now partake of billions of dollars in broadcast revenue and other money streams. The decision will means scholarship/roster limits and tighter on Name, Image and Likeness deals. Bottom line: Amateurism in the NCAA has died. College players are now professional athletes. 5. HORSES: Sovereignty is king(ish), wins Triple Crown double: Thoroughbred racing's Triple Crown season ended Saturday with Sovereignty beating Journalism, just as in the Kentucky Derby. Journalism had won the Preakness Stakes, so either horse could claim the 'Double Crown' in the Belmont. Sovereignty did with an impressive late sprint. (Suggestion: Derby winners must commit to the Preakness so Triple Crown hopes are not so immediately dashed.) 6. INTER MIAMI: Beckham gets knighted; ticket sales lag for FIFA Club World Cup: Inter Miami part-owner David Beckham will earn knighthood next week in Britain and be Sir David, with wife Victoria's title Lady. (Her option was Dame. Good choice, Vic.) In less happy news, FIFA continues to lower ticket prices over fears its 2025 Club World Cup could open to half-empty Hard Rock Stadium as it starts June 14 with Miami and Lionel Messi facing Egypt's Al Ahly. HRS is one of 12 U.S. host stadiums and will see eight matches including Real Madrid June 18, Bayern Munich June 20 and two round-of-16 games. Real Madrid, Man City and Champions League winner Paris Saint-Germain are CWC betting favorites, with Inter Miami a middling 19th of 32 clubs. Meantime Messi is only MLS player on ESPN's latest FC 100 list of world's best players, selected eighth among 20 wingers despite turning 38 this month. 7. DOLPHINS: Questions linger as Miami wraps offseason with minicamp Dolphins end two months of offseason work with a mandatory minicamp this Tuesday through Thursday, club's last on-field activity until late-July start of full training camp. OT Terron Armstead's expected retirement became official but questions linger over when and to whom CB Jalen Ramsey likely will be traded, and whether team will give TE Jonnu Smith more money or trade him, too. Miami's '25 NFL season -- playoffs-or-out for coach Mike McDaniel and GM Chris Grier, it says here -- begins Sept. 7 at the Colts. 8. CANES BASEBALL: UM one win from return to College World Series: The Miami Hurricanes making the annual College World Series in Omaha was a near-annual occurrence for decades, until a recent program downturn. Now the Canes are one win from returning to the CWS for the first time since 2016 as four-time national champion UM has had a faith-restoring season under coach J.D. Arteaga. Sunday's rubber game of a three-game Super Regional vs. host Louisville will determine who goes to Omaha. 9. MARLINS: Getting swept by sub-sad Colorado defines Fish season: Swept at home by a Rockies team hurtling toward historic awfulness will define this season for the low-spending, no-shot Miami Marlins. Fish are now 24-38 in the midst of a season-long nine-game road trip. With all-star voting underway, Marlins outfielder Kyle Stowers has the best shot to rep Miami if voters are feeling charitable or looking for a token Fish. 10. NFL: Rodgers decides his fizzling career will end in Pittsburgh: The ghost of Aaron Rodgers, 41, will sign with the Pittsburgh Steelers (assuming he passes a physical) and says he'll be at team's mini-camp this week. The not-unexpected news sets up a season opener vs. his most recent former team, the New York Jets. Rodgers was as desperate to not retire as the Steelers were for a proven QB. Pittsburgh let Russell Wilson and Justin Fields leave as free agents and had only Mason Rudolph left. Rodgers' is a one-year deal, so expect more will-he-retire drama next spring. THE LIST: FIFA CLUB WORLD CUP FAVORITES: Betting odds as of Saturday via FanDuel for favorites in the 32-team tournament opening next Saturday at Miami's Hard Rock Stadium: Club (Country) Odds Real Madrid (Spain) +410 Manchester City (England) +500 Paris Saint-Germain (France) +500 Bayern Munich (Germany) +700 Chelsea (England) +1000 Atletico Madrid (Spain) +1500 Inter Milan (Italy) +1500 Note: MLS side Inter Miami is tied for 19th favorite to win at +6000.

Dad Makes Baby Girl 'Apologize' to Every Passenger After 8-Hour Flight
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. A family has gone viral after playfully getting their baby daughter to "apologize" to passengers after a long-haul flight. Hannah Chestnut, originally from London in the UK, and her husband Joseph, from Ohio, are proud parents to five-month-old twin baby girls, which can make family life slightly chaotic. Despite this, Chestnut told Newsweek: "We've decided we're going to travel with them and not be deterred by the fact that we have young babies." Traveling with babies can be stressful for the parents, but after a recent trip with their daughters, Chestnut captured a sweet moment between her husband, daughter Ava, and the other passengers—as the baby girl apologized "face-to-face" to her fellow travelers. Five-month-old Ava smiles at disembarking passengers after a flight. Five-month-old Ava smiles at disembarking passengers after a flight. Instagram @themumcrew Posted to Chestnut's Instagram page @themumcrew on May 28, the video showed Joseph holding Ava, dressed all in pink and with a grin on her face, as passengers disembarked the eight-hour flight from London to Atlanta. Ava faces the queue leaving the aircraft, as some of them shoot smiles back at her, with Chestnut writing over the clip: "We told her she had to apologize to everyone face-to-face for what she put them through on the flight." The sweet video racked up more than 67,000 likes, as one commenter joked: "She look at everyone like 'and I'll do it again. Watch this.'"

No. She just smiled that gummy little heart-melting smile and everyone just forgave her." And one recalled a story from when her own daughter was a toddler, and once "tried to take a bite out of a stranger's burger on our flight to Cancun. Still amazed at how gracious our fellow passengers were!" Chestnut explained to Newsweek that on this particular flight, their daughters had not been "too fussy," but while waiting for their stroller and car seats "Ava kept smiling at all the other passengers as they got off the plane. So I decided to film it as her apologizing to all of them." She added: "Ironically, on the flight right after the one we got off of in the video, Ava was super loud and upset, so that was the flight we actually should've filmed the video after!" While flying with babies can be difficult, there are things parents can do to help it go as smoothly as possible. Booking an evening flight can increase the chance of the baby sleeping through the journey, and opting for longer layover times between connecting flights can help the baby or young child expend energy before the next flight, according to Pampers.

Instagram @themumcrew Sharing a sweet detail about her family of four, Chestnut revealed she and her husband were born on the very same day in 1992, "on opposite sides of the Atlantic, only hours apart." "And then 32 years later we had twins, which means our family of four only has two birthdays between all of us." Reacting to the huge online response to her video, she added: "It's been so fun to see the video go viral, and we never expected such a silly moment to reach so many people so quickly."
