Staggering Wimbledon gift shop prices unveiled as one jumper costs over £300
Wimbledon 2025 merch leaves two fans shocked by prices in a viral TikTok of the annual tournament's gift shop, as many other point out the outrageous prices for household items Following Jannik Sinner 's win on July 13 against 2024's champion Carlos Alcaraz, attendees completed the Wimbledon ritual by visiting the court's gift shop, only to be left shocked by the prices of jumpers, towels, candles and parasols. Wimbledon's men's singles player, Sinner, won yesterday's Men's Singles final, winning a huge sum of £3 million. To celebrate the iconic victory, fans walked to the official gift shop - two in particular posting a light-hearted video on TikTok 'guessing the price' of each item. The user's post was captioned "Wimbledon prices are NOT for the weak," and showed the creator being followed around the store, estimating the prices of popular memorabilia merchandise - to then laugh in shock at the actual price, to tennis fans' horror online. Accumulating 1.9million views and 121,000 likes in just two days, the pairs' hysterical clip highlights the additional prices of Wimbledon, as the duo giggled from item to item over the astronomical prices of everyday items like the Wimbledon towel, retailing at a whopping £40, and a branded umbrella for £59. Most shocking was the knitted cardigan. Not even the most expensive jumper available, the girls picked up the short-sleeve cardigan, saying: "What do you think of this? Right this looks so 'spenny' [expensive]," before taking a guess. She added: "Maybe I'm stretching but £95?" The TikTok creators were left speechless to find jumper cost a staggering £319. With other knitwear costing up to £449 - and one particular Polo Ralph Lauren sweater priced at £549 - many took to the comments of the video to share their thoughts. A TikToker wrote: "Towels priced at £40... I now understand why Swiatek is just stuffing it in her bag like that LMAO," with another saying: "I was so disgusted by the greed at Wimbledon. That tournament makes a net profit of hundreds of millions of pounds each year. They price the food, drink and merchandise extortionately high". This was accepted by 4,400 other viewers in terms of likes. In the defence of pricing, user Holly highlighted that the more costly jumpers were due to the quality and material, stating: "The knitwear is Ralph Lauren just bare that in mind," however others pointed out many of the Polo products lacked the logo designer fans prefer.

ENG U-19 vs IND U-19: Suryavanshi heroics help India U19 clinch Youth ODI series victory against England U19
Vaibhav Suryavanshi's heroics helped the Indian Under-19 team beat England Under-19 by 55 runs in the fourth Men's Youth ODI, which took place in Worcester on Saturday. Suryavanshi's record-breaking century, Vihaan Malhotra's hundred and Naman Pushpak's three-wicket haul helped India secure an unassailable 3-1 lead in the five-match series. The 14-year-old, IPL sensation smashed the record for the fastest hundred in Men's Youth ODIs and combined with Vihaan, who also scored a three-digit score, to power India to a mammoth total of 363 for nine. Jack Home was England's only silver lining with the ball, finishing with figures of four for 63 in eight overs. Openers BJ Dawkins and Joseph Moores stitched a strong opening partnership and scored fifties each. But Pushpak put an end to the latter's innings, before trapping Ben Mayes leg before on the very next delivery. Rocky Flintoff, son of former England all-rounder Andrew Flintoff, notched up a fighting hundred to keep the hosts' hopes alive. However, his efforts went in vain as India went on to pick up frequent wickets to bundle England out for 308.

Dad-of-four dies after stomach ache turned out to be stage four cancer
A dad whose stomach ache turned out to be stage four bowel cancer has died days after setting up a fundraiser to pay for his treatment. Kyle Ingram-Baldwin, 40, from Minster, Kent, was diagnosed with stage-four bowel cancer after going to see his GP for a stomach ache. He went through six rounds of chemo and another, more targeted course, but these were not able to get the disease, which spread to his liver, under control. On June 8, he launched a GoFundMe as he was 'wasn't ready to give up', and more than £15,000 was raised towards finding alternative treatments. But Kyle's wife, Becky, has now confirmed that he died on June 16. In an update on the fundraising page, she wrote: 'Unfortunately, Kyle took a very sudden and unexpected turn and we lost him yesterday. 'He was the most incredible man I have ever met, and I know he would want me to thank everyone for all your sharing and donations. I wanted to personally thank each and every one of you who donated to try and help Kyle. I'm so sorry we didn't get to.' He recently bravely spoke of his battle with cancer and how it had impacted his wife and children aged 12, nine, three and one. He said: 'It's really hard to put into words, because I love my kids so much. You just worry about their future. 'They've got the best mum in the world, and I genuinely mean that. My wife's incredible.' Today,Becky told donors they would all be receiving a refund, but after an 'overwhelming' number of messages, she set up a new fundraiser to support her and Kyle's young children. She added: 'As we raised such an incredible amount from so many selfless people, I thought maybe (and it feels so weird and uncomfortable) if people wanted to, once they get refunded, they can gift money to our children. 'I don't know if this is the right thing to do, but the amount of messages I've had is just overwhelming. If you want to give your donation to charity or just make memories with your families, that's what you should do. It didn't feel right for me to make that decision.' Kyle's ordeal began in October last year, when he sought his doctor's advice after suffering from a stomach ache for a couple of weeks. The dad-of-four had suspected his pain was stress-related, and expected the diagnosis to be gallstones. After his pain got worse, he went to A&E. An ultrasound found bulges on his liver, and a CT scan followed, before a call into a room of doctors, where he was given the devastating diagnosis. He said: 'I was thinking, what's going on here? What have I done wrong? I was putting the blame on my own feet and worrying about the future for my wife and kids. 'That's probably the hardest thing – the mental side. Don't get me wrong, the physical is not funny either, but it's a mental challenge.' More Trending Before his death, he said he was 'blown away' by the huge sum raised by the fundraiser and said it had given him hope. Kyle worked for Automatic Retailing, a wholesale supplier for vending machines, and helped run the Men's Mental Health Support Talking Football project in Minster. He wanted to encourage others to get checked out urgently if something doesn't feel right. He added: 'I didn't present with any of the conventional symptoms. If you think anything's wrong, please press your GP and go get it checked, because I genuinely wouldn't want anyone being in my position.'

2025 French Open Day 8 odds, picks: Shelton vs. Alcaraz, Musetti vs. Rune
Gambling content 21+. The New York Post may receive an affiliate commission if you sign up through our links. Read our editorial standards for more information. We are now into Week 2 of the 2025 Men's French Open, and it looks poised to be a doozy of a finish at Roland Garros this year. Carlos Alcaraz, Jannik Sinner, Novak Djokovic, Alexander Zverev, Jack Draper, Holger Rune, Lorenzo Musetti, Tommy Paul, Ben Shelton, and Frances Tiafoe are all still in the field, meaning just four of the top 15 seeds (Taylor Fritz, Casper Ruud, Daniil Medvedev, and Arthur Fils) have been eliminated at Roland Garros. Six of those players are in action on Sunday. Best bets for Day 8 of the 2025 French Open Ben Shelton (+1000) vs. Carlos Alcaraz, approx. 8 a.m. Eastern It's been an encouraging French Open for American Ben Shelton. The 22-year-old Florida native had never made it beyond the third round at Roland Garros, so this has already been a successful trip to Paris for the rising star. That said, Shelton has had things break his way in this tournament. The Florida native was able to outlast Lorenzo Sonego in a marathon five-setter in Round 1, but he was dealt a huge break when his second-round opponent, Hugo Gaston, withdrew from the tournament, allowing him to rest before his showdown with World No. 167 Matteo Gigante in Round 3. Shelton made quick work of the Italian to earn a date with Carlos Alcaraz in the Round of 16. This is likely where the road ends for Shelton. Alcaraz is a -2100 favorite to win the match, and he's -172 to do it in straight sets. It's hard to see a path to Shelton making this a competitive match outside of Alcaraz not being on his game. Shelton's powerful serve is his bread and butter, but Alcaraz is the best defender in the sport and will be aided by the slow conditions at Roland Garros. This should be over quickly. The play: Under 31.5 games (-115, FanDuel) Holger Rune takes on Lorenzo Musetti in Round 4 of the 2025 French Open. REUTERS Holger Rune (+168) vs. Lorenzo Musetti, approx. 2:15 p.m. Eastern They aren't the biggest names in action on Sunday, but Holger Rune and Lorenzo Musetti are a good bet to provide the best match. Rune and Musetti are both ranked inside the top 10, and will know that the winner of this match will be the favorite in the quarterfinals against Frances Tiafoe or Daniel Altmaier. Musetti has been the steadier of the two to this point in this tournament, but Rune's ability to dig deep in tricky situations has been impressive, especially considering his propensity to fall to pieces in those scenarios in the past. Musetti may be the fresher player, but the fact that Rune has passed some tough tests is a good thing in my eyes. This match is close to a coin flip, so Rune has value. The play: Rune +168 (FanDuel) Why Trust New York Post Betting Michael Leboff is a long-suffering Islanders fan, but a long-profiting sports bettor with 10 years of experience in the gambling industry.

Munster's Tadhg Beirne named Players' Player of the Year
Tadhg Beirne was named Men's XVs Players' Player of the Year at the Rugby Players Ireland awards at the Aviva Stadium on Wednesday night. The Munster second row beat competition from provincial teammate Tom Farrell and Leinster duo Caelan Doris and Jamison Gibson-Park, who were also nominated. Berine started every game for Ireland in this Six Nations, and has featured 16 times for Munster in his first season as the province's captain. Earlier this month, his form was rewarded with a place in the Lions squad for this summer's tour of Australia, while in February he signed a new two-year extension with the IRFU and Munster. 'I'm honoured to be named as the OCC Consulting Men's Players' Player of the Year," said Beirne. "It comes as quite a surprise given that Caelan, Tom and Jamison have all had brilliant seasons. To be chosen by my fellow Rugby Players Ireland members makes this award even more meaningful, and I really appreciate their support and acknowledgement.' The women's award was claimed by Leinster centre Aoife Dalton. The 22-year-old from Offaly has become a key player for Ireland. Amee-Lee Costigan, Niamh O'Dowd and Dorothy Wall were the others nominated. 'It's a very exciting time to be involved with this group of players," said Dalton. "To be recognised by them at such a crucial time for this team is hard to put into words. When I first came into camp, I could sense that something was beginning to build and I think we have started to see the fruits of that over recent months both collectively and individually, through the performances of my fellow nominees Amee-Leigh, Niamh and Dorothy.' Erin King won the Women's Young Player of the Year award while Sam Prendergast took the men's equivalent. Ireland and Leinster out-half Prendergast was presented with the award by his older brother Cian, the Connacht captain, who was a previous winner in the category. Two scores from the Six Nations were named the tries of the year. Dan Sheehan starting and finishing off a team move against England back in February won in the men's category. Anna McGann touching down to finish what was also a team move against Italy, one which sealed her hat-trick in the game, was named Women's Try of the Year. Eimear Considine, who retired from rugby in November after 10 years at the top level of the women's game in Ireland, won the Zurich Contribution to Irish Society Award for her contributions to mental health discourse. On behalf of the Irish men's team, Caelan Doris accepted the Moment of the Year award for Ireland's Triple Crown win in the Six Nations.
