Spanish tennis star Paula Badosa apologized after being accused of racism for pulling her eyes back with chopsticks in a photo posted to Instagram by her coach, Pol Toledo. Toledo posted the images after Badosa lost to American Coco Gauff in the semi-finals of the China Open on Saturday. Badosa, 26, on Tuesday issued the now-deleted post on X saying that she was not aware of the gesture's connotation. “Spanish WTA [World Tennis Association] players sure love being racist to Asian people, I guess…,” one user wrote, referring to a similar controversy from the 2008 Beijing Olympics, in which the Spanish Tennis Federation published a photo to its website capturing Olympic tennis players doing the same gesture. The photo was captioned in Spanish, “We are prepared for China.”Badosa is ranked 15 in the world by the WTA, according to its website.

☆ Wimbledon removes line judges after 147 years in favor of electronic system
▼ + stars: | 2024-10-10 | by ( Matias Grez | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +2 min

CNN —For the first time in its 147-year history, Wimbledon will be removing line judges from all of its courts during the tournament. The All England Club announced on Wednesday that from the 2025 championships onwards, electronic line calling (ELC) will be used after it was successfully tested in 2024. ELC will replace the line judges who call “out” or “fault” during a match and will also be used in Wimbledon qualifying ahead of the tournament. Wimbledon successfully trialed the technology at this year's championships. Wimbledon’s adoption of the technology leaves the clay-court French Open as the only remaining grand slam yet to implement ELC.
