Chamberlain’s 100-point game is historic, setting a record that will likely never be broken. Other players have gotten close – like Kobe Bryant’s 81-point game in 2006 – but we’ve seen few challengers to Chamberlain’s record since then. In honor of his 100-point game, take a look back at the highest individual single-game scoring totals in NBA history. MORE: Watch NBA games live with Sling TV (3-day free trial)...
Djokovic wasted a 5-2 lead, and a match point, in the fourth set but held on for a 6-7 (7), 6-4, 7-6 (4), 5-7, 6-4 Centre Court victory that returned the Serbian player to the No. 1 ranking. It was Djokovic’s seventh Grand Slam title and broke a streak of three consecutive losses in major finals and in five of his past six.

The reason is that he was not defending strong backhand or a smash from his opponent but only a lame shot that was called “out”! The mode of defence: a la cricket. As the ball reached him he got both his hands on the racket and pushed the ball towards the ball boy.

Nadal’s quest for a Calendar Grand Slam and a record 23rd major was in serious doubt when he required a medical timeout to treat an abominable issue in the second set. He admitted in his post-match interview he considered throwing in the towel but after four hours and 20 minutes on court the 36-year-old somehow came through it. Channelling the same mentality that saw him come from two sets down to beat Daniil Medvedev to win the Australian Open back in January, Nadal found his rhythm in the latter stages of the match and saved his best til last in a crucial final set tie-break....
The evergreen Federer eased past the Czech 7-6 (7-4) 7-6 (7-4) 6-4 to set up a meeting with first-time finalist Marin Cilic on Sunday.

As such, it’s worth wondering what a remake of Resident Evil 4 would look like. SPOILER WARNING for those who have yet to complete the Resident Evil 3 campaign....

Much of the discourse about the president’s diagnoses happened on Twitter, with users reacting to the headline-grabbing news in real-time. Trump himself chose that platform to make the announcement—a post that has become his most liked tweet ever. And after all, the platform’s own hateful conduct policy appears resolute on the matter, saying that “wishing, hoping or calling for serious harm on a person”—including “hoping that someone dies as a result of a serious disease”—is against the rules....
