Swiatek faces Sabalenka in blockbuster French Open semi-final
Home heroine Lois Boisson takes on world number two Coco Gauff in the other women's last-four clash on Court Philippe Chatrier. Here, AFP Sport takes a look at the day's two semi-finals (x denotes seeding): Aryna Sabalenka (BLR x1) v Iga Swiatek (POL x5) The biggest rivalry in the current women's game will get its first instalment since last August in Cincinnati when the reigning champion goes up against the top seed. Swiatek holds an 8-4 winning record against Sabalenka, but came into the tournament under a cloud after a disappointing clay-court season and without even a final appearance since lifting the Coupe Suzanne Lenglen 12 months ago. But the Pole is on a remarkable 26-match winning streak in the French Open and could become the first woman to win four straight titles at Roland Garros since Suzanne Lenglen 102 years ago. "I don't know if she elevates my game," she said of Sabalenka. "But for sure our rivalry is pushing both of us, I think, but it's not only about the level of tennis. It's about like everything, how we work, and how professional we are." The pair practised together in the build-up to the tournament, and Sabalenka credits their improving relationship off-court to a dance video they did for TikTok at last year's WTA Finals. Sabalenka has only beaten Swiatek once on clay, in the 2023 Madrid Open final. Their most memorable clash was the 2024 final in the Spanish capital when Swiatek saved three championship points and won in a deciding-set tie-break. "We've had a lot of great battles in the past," Sabalenka said after her quarter-final win over Zheng Qinwen. "I'm super excited to go out there and to fight and to do everything I need to get the win." Sabalenka has powered through the draw so far without dropping a set. Swiatek has also been in dominant form, with the exception a battling comeback victory over Elena Rybakina in the fourth round, a performance she said she "needed". Coco Gauff (USA x2) v Lois Boisson (FRA) French world number 361 Boisson is still dreaming of a fairytale title triumph on her Grand Slam debut after a memorable quarter-final triumph over rising Russian star Mirra Andreeva. The 22-year-old Boisson missed out on making her first Roland Garros appearance last year after suffering a knee injury the week before the tournament, but has more than made up for lost time with a stunning run through the draw. She had never played a top-50 opponent before this week, but has now beaten two in the top 10 in third-ranked Jessica Pegula and world number six Andreeva to set up her last-four clash with Gauff. "I think every kid who plays tennis has the dream to win a Slam. More for French players to win Roland Garros, for sure," said Boisson. "So, yeah, it's a dream. For sure I will go for the dream, because my dream is to win it, not to be in the semi-final." Andreeva was overwhelmed by the atmosphere on Court Philippe Chatrier as she lost the last six games of her quarter-final against Boisson. But Gauff has a plan to try and block out the noise from the partisan home crowd. "I think there are two ways I have done it in the past. Either, A: just pretend they're cheering for you, and B: just using it and not letting that get to you," she said after defeating Australian Open champion Madison Keys in the last eight.

Can Money Buy Happiness? Maybe Not, But It Can Buy LongevityโLife Expectancy Rankings Revealed
Visual Capitalist's Pallavi Rao illustrates this phenomenon in the above map, which uses 2025 life expectancy at birth projections from the UN World Population Prospects published last year. Life expectancy at birth measures the average number of years that a newborn could expect to live, if they were subject to the age-specific mortality rates of a given period. This number visualized is an average between men and women. For extra context, women have higher life expectancies than men in nearly every country in the world. The micronation of Monaco has the highest average life expectancy in the world. A baby born in the country in 2025 can expect to live to 87 years old.

Most of the top 10 countries are similarly small-sized territories or countries. However, Japan (#4), South Korea (#5), and Australia (#10) are the three top-10 countries with the highest life expectancies (84+) when accounting for a population of more than 20 million people. Regionally, Western European countries have the highest life expectancies at birth. Their counterparts in Eastern Europe are a shade lower. And despite Japan and South Korea's performance, most Asians have life expectancies between 70โ80 years. Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Papua New Guinea are below the 70-year threshold. However, several African countries have a below-60 life expectancy, a projected lifespan that is a full 20 years shorter than Western European residents. Nigeria has the lowest average life expectancy at birth, at 55 years. Life expectancies are tricky things to fully comprehend: in that they change throughout a person's lifespan and are measured for entire cohorts born in a year. For example, in countries with lower projected expectancies, it doesn't necessarily mean adults don't live as long. A high infant mortality rate for a particular cohort of babies born in a year could reduce the projected lifespan of the entire cohort. However once a baby from that year survives to adulthood, they may very well reach their 70s. In fact, data shows that the biggest difference between life expectancies of Africa and high-income regions are for those before the age of 5 and after 60. This is because both babies and older adults have a need for specific medical infrastructure which many Africans don't have access to. There is a strong correlation between wealth and longer lifespans. Check out Countries with the Highest GDP per Capita in 2024 to see similarities.

Duo claim trial to using bogus police summonses
KUALA LUMPUR: Two motorsports programme managers were charged in the magistrate's court here today with two counts of using forged summons notices resembling official police documents to deceive the public two weeks ago. However, both accused โ Tan Kok Ho, 43, and Denise Tan Ying Chyuan, 47 โ pleaded not guilty when the charges were read before magistrates Atiqah Mohamed @ Mohamad Saim and Illi Marisqa Khalizan. The two men were jointly accused of presenting a forged document as genuine โ specifically, a summons notice resembling the official police (POL 170A) notice โ despite knowing it to be false, with the intention of misleading the public. The offences were allegedly committed at a shopping mall car park in Bukit Bintang and at the Bukit Jalil National Stadium on May 10 and 11. They were charged under Section 471 of the Penal Code, punishable under Section 465, read together with Section 34, which provides for a maximum sentence of two years' imprisonment, a fine, or both, upon conviction. Earlier, deputy public prosecutors Nurainizatul Farhana Zainal and Syafika Azwa Fikri requested bail of RM7,000 with one surety each. However, defence counsel Phang Soon Mun, representing both accused, appealed for a lower bail of RM3,000, arguing that both clients were sole breadwinners for their families. "Tan, who is married, has two young children aged five and three, and earns an unstable income of about RM5,000. Denise has three children aged 10, 12, and 14, and also earns around RM5,000," he said. After hearing submissions from both sides, Atiqah granted bail at RM2,500 with one surety, while Illi Marisqa set bail at RM3,500 for each accused. The case has been fixed for mention on July 2. Previously, a video had gone viral on social media showing an individual receiving a letter resembling a police summons placed on a car windscreen, sparking public concern that it could be a new scam tactic.
