Coco Gauff was asked about Aryna Sabalenka saying Iga Swiatek would’ve beaten her in the Roland Garros final: “I don’t agree with that. I mean, I’m sitting here. 😂 No shade to Iga or anything, but I played her and I won in straight sets. I don’t think that’s a fair thing to say. Anything can really happen. Honestly, the way Aryna was playing the last few weeks, she was the favorite to win. I think she was the best person I could’ve played in the final. Her being #1 in the world, she was the best person to play. I think I got the hardest matchup just if you go off stats alone. Obviously Iga being a champion here, it was gonna be a tough match either way. But yeah, regardless of who I played, I think I had a good shot to win and I definitely had that belief. If you ask me honestly who I wanted to play, it was Iga. Just because I felt Aryna was playing so good. Obviously Iga is a tough opponent too. Honestly neither of them would’ve been the better shot 😂. But it played out how it played out and that’s why I’m here today.” (via Roland Garros Press)
6 June 1944. This 54 year old general made the call knowing the potential implication. I can’t imagine the mental & emotional strain. And it’s so very hard to comprehend the sacrifices for a new future that were the result. We cannot waste now what happened on that day.

#Breaking SBU quoted by Ukrinform: "The special operation "Pavutyna", as a result of which the SBU hit 41 Russian strategic aviation aircraft, was prepared for more than a year and a half. The President of Ukraine, Supreme Commander-in-Chief Volodymyr Zelensky, personally supervised the operation. And the plan was implemented by Vasyl Malyuk and the staff of the Service. According to our sources, this operation was extremely complex from a logistical point of view. The SBU first transported FPV drones to Russia, and later - mobile wooden houses. Later, on the territory of the Russian Federation, the drones were hidden under the roofs of houses, already placed on trucks. At the right moment, the roofs of the houses were remotely opened, and the drones flew to hit the Russian bombers. We have unique photos showing exactly how the drones were prepared for the attack on military airfields. Sources in the SBU emphasize that the people who took part in this historic special operation have been in Ukraine for a long time. So, if the Putin regime demonstratively detains someone, it will be another staged performance for the domestic audience."
