LE MARKSTEIN, France—Sepp Kuss rolled slowly across the finish line, nearly 21 minutes after the leaders, bruised and bleeding profusely from cut above his eye and on his cheek. He had crashed hard on a downhill early during Saturday’s 20th stage of the Tour de France and now, he really needed two things.

☆ This Performance Coach Once Helped Patrick Mahomes. Now He’s Working With Australian Women’s Soccer.
  + stars: | 2023-07-19 | by ( Joshua Robinson | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
When the Australian women’s soccer team gathered in Dublin two years ago for an exhibition game against Ireland, the players weren’t sure what to expect from the new hire on their coaching staff. He was asking a lot of questions about how much they’d slept on the plane, what their goals were, and when they planned to nap. He wanted to administer psychological screenings. This was, he said, “more of a sports science camp” than preparation for one match.

Djokovic was 36 years old, a 23-time major winner and seemingly still at the height of his powers. “They want to win,” he joked, “but it ain’t happening.”

In four trips to the Wimbledon main draw, she had won just one match and never survived past the second round. So when she returned to the All England Club this summer, unseeded and still finding the surface “almost impossible,” she expected her stay to be short.

Even though he was facing British No. 1 Cam Norrie in front of a hometown crowd, Eubanks could sense on Friday that he was in his groove.
