NEW YORK, NEW YORK - MAY 12: Livvy Dunne takes a photograph as she attends a game between the New ... More York Mets and the Pittsburgh Pirates at Citi Field on May 12, 2025 in New York City. (Photo by) Former NCAA gymnast and social media sensation Olivia 'Livvy' Dunne has been on the move since her retirement from gymnastics. Whether cheering for her boyfriend, Pittsburgh Pirates ace Paul Skenes, or walking the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit runway in Miami, the 22-year-old influencer rarely stays put. With over 8 million followers on TikTok and 5.3 million on Instagram, Dunne was once the most followed and highest-earning female athlete in the NCAA, considered a pioneer in the Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) era of college athletics. While her social media content garners extensive reach, Dunne has recently dealt with concerning behavior. Dunne alleges that she has endured harassment during potential 'stalking' incidents at U.S. airports. Unfortunately, she is not alone. The former LSU Tiger took to TikTok in late May, sharing her concerns and recent experiences with her extensive fanbase. 'I fear that I'm being stalked and I don't know what to do,' Dunne said. Dunne reports that 'every' airport visit has been met with harassment from 'a group of at least 10 middle-aged men" seeking her autograph. She reports that the men often carry stacks of photos of Dunne, and will 'run [her] The influencer shares that their presence is almost unavoidable, with the men appearing before and after personal flights, even family vacations or connection flights through obscure or low-traffic airports. 'It needs to stop,' she pleads. Unfortunately, Dunne is among a handful of female celebrities or athletes who have reported similar behavior from unidentified men at airports across the U.S. In January 2025, U.S. Track and Field Olympic gold medalist Gabby Thomas expressed similar concerns to Dunne's in a TikTok video.

(Photo by) Thomas reported an eerily identical circumstance, including 'three to six' middle-aged men stalking her throughout multiple airports, wielding photos and vehemently demanding autographs. 'They have my flight information," Thomas said, adding that the men always know exactly where to find her, whether at the airport concourse or at her gate. Thomas also fears for her safety when confronted while traveling alone, reporting that the men often become 'aggressive and hostile' when she refuses. Thomas' video garnered over 750,000 views on TikTok, with multiple prominent female athletes and celebrities expressing their shared concerns – including Dunne. Olympic Champion gymnasts Simone Biles and Sunisa 'Suni' Lee both commented, expressing that they have also dealt with similar harassment in U.S. airports. 'No same, I'm horrified of them…happens too often,' Biles shared, adding that she photographs the men 'just in case.' Women's tennis star Coco Gauff also reported a similar experience in the comment section. 'I don't know how it happens,' Gauff said. 'My theory is maybe someone at the airport tips them off.' While Thomas managed to capture video of one of her more recent stalking incidents, Dunne's recent post suggests that the harassment remains prevalent months later.

Juan Soto snaps 17-game home run drought in Mets' win
NEW YORK (AP) — Juan Soto snapped a 17-game home run drought with a 404-foot homer to left-centerfield in the fourth inning of the New York Mets' 8-2 win Saturday over the Colorado Rockies. Soto's first homer since May 9 was clocked at 109.5 mph off the bat but hit into a 14 mph wind blowing out to right field. Advertisement 'He put a really good swing on it,' Mets manager Carlos Mendoza said. 'For him to hit it out of the ballpark like that on a day that the conditions are not in his favor, that's pretty impressive.' Asked if he was confident the ball would leave the yard, Soto grinned. 'I mean, 110 (mph), you've got to be,' Soto said. 'I knew it was gone.' The home run drought was the fourth-longest of the outfielder's eight-year career. Soto, who signed a record $765 million, 15-year deal in December, entered Saturday hitting just .143 with two extra-base hits in his previous 17 games. But the reception at Citi Field has remained mostly warm for Soto, who raised his hands to the cheering crowd following his home run trot. He was serenaded with chants of 'JUAN SO-TO' from fans in the right field seats in the top of the fifth, when he turned and raised his arms in acknowledgment. Advertisement 'It's a great feeling when you feel the support like that,' Soto said. Soto homered one pitch after Brandon Nimmo hit a two-run shot to right. 'Francisco (Lindor) and I were doing our picture down there,' Nimmo said, referring to the Mets' post-home run tradition of posing in the dugout. 'Heard the sound of the bat and the crowd going wild. We looked out and were able to see him go the other way. That's when he's the best. 'I think weather's starting to heat up, we're flipping the script into June, this field will start to play a little more fair. I think it's just a sign of good things to come. Great to go back-to-back with him.' ___ AP MLB: Jerry Beach, The Associated Press

Mets offense explodes, Kodai Senga dominates in 8-2 win over Rockies
The Mets' offense hit three home runs and Kodai Senga struck out seven, pitching into the seventh to beat the Rockies, 8-2, on Saturday afternoon at Citi Field. Every starter had at least one hit in the game while Mets pitchers allowed just three hits. Here are the takeaways... -It was an odd start for Senga. After striking out Jordan Beck on a pitch-clock violation to start the game, Ezequiel Tovar lofted a ghostfork over the left field wall to give the Rockies a 1-0 lead. It's just the third home run Senga has allowed this season, all coming in the first inning. It's just the second homer allowed on the ghostfork in Senga's career. Senga bounced back to strike out Hunter Goodman and Ryan McMahon to end the first. Advertisement -The Mets offense would get the run back, and then some. Francisco Lindor and Brandon Nimmo led off with back-to-back singles, and starter Antonio Senzatela walked Juan Soto to load the bases. Pete Alonso struck out swinging but Brett Baty picked him up with a bases-clearing triple. Tyrone Taylor singled to put the Mets up 4-1. The longball would be kind to the Mets in the fourth with Nimmo driving a two-run shot, and Soto followed with an opposite-field blast to put the Mets up 7-1. It's the first time this season the Mets hit back-to-back homers. It's Soto's first home run since May 9. The 66 at-bats between homers was the second-longest drought of his career. Jeff McNeil will get in on the fun in the eighth with a solo shot to push the Mets' lead to 8-2. -Senga would settle in, retiring 17 straight batters at one point. But he started to tire in the seventh, walking Tovar to lead off and pitching out of the stretch for the first time. Goodman hit a bullet to third, but Baty snagged it for the first out. McMahon walked and after a mound visit, Thairo Estrada hit a single through the left side to push across the Rockies' second run. Advertisement Mendoza pulled his starter and brought in Jose Butto. Butto got the last two outs of the inning to put an end to the threat and Senga's day. The right-hander threw 92 pitches (55 strikes) across 6.1 innings, allowing two runs on two hits and two walks while striking out seven batters. Senga has now pitched 28 straight starts allowing three runs or fewer. The combination of Butto and recently-recalled Chris Devenski combined to get the final eight outs, allowing just two walks and one hit. -A day after Lindor hit two homers, he reached base four more times on Saturday. He went 2-for-3 with two walks. Soto had just the one hit, but reached base twice Game MVP: Kodai Senga While the offense had its best offensive day in a while, Senga continued his dominance in 2025. Highlights What's next The Mets complete their series with the Rockies on Sunday at 1:40 p.m. on SNY. Clay Holmes (5-3, 2.98 ERA) will take the mound and go up against LHP Carson Palmquist (0-3, 8.78 ERA).
