☆ 'Heartbreaking', Woodbridge bemoans Wimbledon doubles decision
▼ + stars: | 2023-01-26 | by ( ) www.reuters.com time to read: +2 min

MELBOURNE, Jan 26 (Reuters) - Nine-times Wimbledon men's doubles champion Todd Woodbridge said on Thursday it was "heartbreaking" to hear the All England Club had made the decision to cut the event to best-of-three sets rather than five from this year. "Five sets lets the best team win generally in that situation." Woodbridge won six Wimbledon men's doubles titles with compatriot Mark Woodforde in the duo known as the "Woodies" before teaming up with Swede Bjorkman for another three. American Mike Bryan, who with sibling Bob formed the most successful professional doubles team of all time, also bemoaned the decision. The 2022 Wimbledon men's doubles final took more than four hours to complete with Australian duo Matthew Ebden and Max Purcell beating Croatians Nikola Mektic and Mate Pavic over five sets.

De când cu pandemia de Covid-19, cercetătoarea Anna Hielm-Bjorkman, de la Universitatea din Helsinki, a vrut să vadă dacă nasul lui Kossi poate fi reprogramat pentru a detecta coronavirusul. Aronkyto a oferit fundației „Nasul înțelept” 330.000 de euro pentru a desfășura programul-pilot pe o perioadă de patru luni în cadrul aeroportului din Helsinki. Asociația „Nasul înțelept” estimează că antrenarea a 100 de câini și a personalului auxiliar, apoi plasarea lor în metropole ar presupune costuri de aproape șase milioane de euro în primul an. Suma echivalează cu doar câteva luni de testare medicală pe aeroportul din Helsinki și chiar există posibilitatea ca programul să ia amploare. Parlamentarul Pihla Keto-Huovinen a făcut o propunere pentru a obține finanțarea necesară după ce a aflat despre program luna trecută.
