Massive Debt Revealed at Center of Olympian's Shock Divorce
Court documents reveal that compounding amounts of debt may have been at the center of Olympic swimmer Ryan Lochte's decision to call it quits on his marriage of seven years. Page Six reports that Lochte, 40, and ex Kayla Rae, 33—who announced their separation June 4—have racked up nearly $270,000 in debt over the course of their marriage. The couple owes around $99,000 in taxes to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for the years 2021 and 2022, and in December 2024, they were hit with a bill of $2,231.76 for 'unpaid' costs, 'late fees,' and 'attorney fees' on their home in Gainesville, Florida. Adding to that, the 12-time Olympic medalist reportedly owes $127,977.73 to the Shands Teaching Hospital and Clinic, where Lochte may have been treated for a November 2023 car accident, Page Six reported. The hospital added that a separate $39,720.15 was owed for a February 2024 visit. Reid filed for divorce from Lochte on March 26, according to court docs, Page Six reported. In a statement posted to Instagram, she said it was a 'hard decision' she made after 'deep prayer and reflection.' 'I hold marriage in the highest regard, so this has been one of the most painful, revealing, and challenging seasons of my life,' she said. Lochte followed with a statement of his own, saying he was 'deeply grateful for the life we've built together and especially for the love we share for our three children.' Lochte and Rae share son, Caiden Zane, 8, and daughters, Live Rae, 5, and Georgia June, 1, together.

Coco Gauff used words and a mirror to persuade herself she could win the French Open
So she drew inspiration from Northampton's Gabby Thomas, who became the women's Advertisement 'I wrote, 'I will be French Open champion 2025' like a bunch of times,' Gauff explained. 'She [Thomas] wrote 'I will be the Olympic champion' and she ended up winning the gold. I think it's a great mindset that she had.' Eight lines on a piece of paper written by Gauff late on a Friday night, then it was finally time for bed, time to rest. Coco Gauff took inspiration from Gabby Thomas at Roland Garros 'I will be the French Open 2025 Champion.' Powerful words fulfilled by a powerful young woman. 🇺🇸❤️ — The Tennis Letter (@TheTennisLetter) Not quite. Gauff then persuaded herself a little bit more, by staring at the mirror and convincing herself she was looking at the face of a soon-to-be French Open champion. 'Looking at myself in the mirror so I was trying to instill that belief, and obviously it happened. I didn't know if it was going to work or not. [But] it did,' Gauff said, then laughed as she added: 'When you're desperate, you're just trying anything to think that it's going to help you win.' Advertisement Coco Gauff defeated Aryna Sabalenka, 6-7 (5), 6-2, 6-4, to win the French Open on Saturday. DIMITAR DILKOFF/AFP via Getty Images Gauff also posted on Instagram another message she wrote to herself four years ago, which started with the words 'I had a dream last night that I will win [the] French Open.' Job done. What also stood out during the 2 hours, 38 minutes on Court Philippe-Chatrier on Saturday — in a gritty final punctuated by swirling winds due to the open roof — was how Gauff stayed calm while Sabalenka imploded and continually remonstrated with herself. Saturday's French Open final was a frustrating afternoon for top-ranked Aryna Sabalenka. Lindsey Wasson/Associated Press All the screams and shouts were coming from Sabalenka's side of the net, while there was an almost quiet, steely focus on Gauff's side. That's largely because, these days, Gauff gets her frustrations out before matches. 'I know how important it is for me to let out those emotions so that when I come on the match court I can try and be as calm as possible,' the No. 2-ranked Gauff said. 'I'm more cool-headed in matches. But in practice I can get pretty upset. Just let me be upset. If I'm upset, I'd rather be upset on the practice court than the match.' Gauff will now switch to the grass-court season and may play in Berlin next week before heading to London for Wimbledon, which starts on June 30. When she gets to London, Gauff will indulge in one of her favorite hobbies: trying to get out of Escape Rooms. 'For sure, I love it, and I'm going to definitely do it,' she said. And how about Sabalenka? How will she be coping with the defeat and the frustrations she so clearly felt? Advertisement Will she be analyzing footage of the match over and over again, trying to understand where she went wrong and what she must do better? Far from it. She's off to indulge herself in Greece. 'I already have a flight booked to Mykonos and alcohol, sugar. I just need couple of days to completely forget about this crazy world,' Sabalenka said. 'Tequila, gummy bears, and I don't know, swimming, being like the tourist for couple of days.'

Middletown native, Olympic gold medalist Kayla Harrison wins UFC championship
Middletown native Kayla Harrison has some new gold to boast about. Harrison, a two-time Olympic gold medalist in judo, became the Ultimate Fighting Championship's bantamweight champion on June 7 after defeating Julianna Peña at UFC 316 in Newark, New Jersey. Kayla Harrison reacts after defeating Julianna Peña (not pictured) in a bantamweight title bout during UFC 316 at the Prudential Center. Harrison became the first American to win gold in judo in the 2012 London Olympics. In the 2016 games in Rio de Janeiro, Harrison won her second gold before transitioning to mixed martial arts training. Advertisement She made her debut for the Professional Fighters League in 2018, going 16-1 in the promotion and twice winning its $1 million tournament before joining the UFC. Harrison's win over Peña was her third in the UFC, giving her a 19-1 professional record. In the final seconds of the second round, Harrison submitted Peña with a kimura hold. "This belt, more than anything it represents I think indomitable will and who I became during the journey to get this belt and who I am now as a human being," Harrison said after the fight in an interview with UFC's McKenzie Pavacich. "That's really what it is. That's what it represents." This article originally appeared on Cincinnati Enquirer: Kayla Harrison vs. Julianna Peña: UFC bantamweight championship result
