(CNN) — Time might have run out for Novak Djokovic to be admitted US entry to play at Indian Wells, but US politicians — notably Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis — are lobbying for regulations to change and allow the world No. 1 into the country in time for the Miami Open.The US still requires international visitors to be vaccinated against Covid-19, and the Serbian, who has previously said he remains unvaccinated, confirmed he had applied for special permission to enter the country ahead of both tournaments.However, Indian Wells organizers announced on Sunday that Djokovic had withdrawn from the tournament, where main draw play began Wednesday.DeSantis said he would “run a boat from the Bahamas” for Djokovic to compete in the Miami Open tennis tournament later this month.“I would run a boat from the Bahamas here for him. I would do that a hundred percent,” DeSantis said at a press conference in Tampa Wednesda...81-year-old stuck in snowbank survives nearly a week on croissants and candy

(CNN) — An elderly man survived on croissants, candy and biscotti for nearly a week alone in his car, stuck in a snowbank on a desolate California highway.Jerry Jouret, 81, set out from his mountain house in Big Pine, California, on February 24 to return to his family home in Gardnerville, Nevada — just over three hours away in good driving conditions.According to his grandson Christian, Jouret thought he could beat the impending snowstorm. He was wrong.During the drive, Jouret accidentally veered onto a smaller road and his SUV became stuck near Gilbert Pass, he told CNN.Temperatures in the area dropped from the mid-30s into the teens overnight.The mathematician and former NASA employee were ill-prepared for the weather, wearing only a light windbreaker, his grandson said. “He’s pretty small,” Christian added. “He doesn’t have a whole lot of meat on his bones.”A light quilt and a hotel bath towel were the only things Jouret had to kee...Punches thrown on Southwest plane in Dallas, according to witness and video

(CNN) — Punches were thrown on a Southwest Airlines plane in Dallas Monday, according to a witness and video, marking the latest incident of unruly passenger behavior.Passengers bound for Phoenix were boarding Flight 117 at Dallas Love Field Airport when a man in a tan blazer confronted another man and hit him with a flurry of punches, passenger Caitlin Johnson told CNN Wednesday.“And the next thing you know he starts punching the man,” Johnson said.She said passengers jumped in to help de-escalate the situation.In Johnson’s video, the man in the blazer can be seen holding the other man in a headlock and calling him obscenities as passengers try to intervene.“You guys stop it,” one passenger is heard saying, while another says, “Get off of him” and “let go.”Once the passengers managed to separate the two men, the man wearing the blazer swings at the other man, the video shows.“No! Do not hit him again,” a ...Woman arrested for Burlington credit card scam, allegedly made $500K in fraudulent charges

A 19-year-old woman has been arrested for her alleged role in a credit card scam that police say involved her making over half-a-million dollars’ worth of fraudulent charges, including the purchase of a Tesla and trip to Hawaii before her arrest.Ariel Foster of Boston is now facing a charge of Larceny Over $1,200, according to the Burlington Police Department.In a statement, Burlington Police Chief Thomas Browne said her arrest came weeks after detectives were called to the Lovisa jewelry store in the Burlington Mall for a report of a credit card machine breach on Feb. 22.Browne said an investigation found that on three dates that month, some items scanned at the register had their prices increased, and that the cost of the items was then allegedly refunded to a credit card belonging to Foster, an employee at the store.Police identified eight such transactions, adding up to a total loss of $547,187. Authorities also determined Foster was at the store when the breaches occurred...Having been there, lost that, Kevin Love warns Heat about perils of life in NBA play-in round

Miami Heat newcomer Kevin Love has lived the NBA play-in tournament. He doesn’t want to go back. With good reason.While for some lower seeds, the play-in round, where one or two victories can secure a spot in the first round, is a second chance at making things right, it also can be a path fraught with peril for teams that under the NBA’s previous format would have advanced directly to the best-of-seven opening round.“We certainly have an uphill climb to get to where we need to be,” Love said, with the Heat at No. 7 in the East headed into Friday night’s rematch against the Cleveland Cavaliers at Miami-Dade Arena, “and, more than anything, that’s just not to be in the play-in.“We’re right there, and we feel like we can’t keep setting ourselves back. We need to start winning these next several games in order to put ourselves in a good spot and able to not have to be in the play-in.”Love speaks from experience.Last seas...Lonzo Ball could face a 3rd knee surgery, raising questions about his return to Chicago Bulls for the 2023-24 season
Published Fri, 22 Nov 2024 08:34:50 GMT
The end of a lengthy recovery still isn’t in sight for Chicago Bulls point guard Lonzo Ball, who reportedly could require a third surgery on his right knee.ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski reported Thursday that Ball could require a third procedure, which would result in at least six months of additional recovery. The report did not specify what the procedure would entail, but the surgery would most likely occur by the end of March.If the procedure requires a six-month recovery window, it could raise questions already for Ball’s availability for the start of the 2023-24 season.Ball underwent a meniscus surgery last January and an arthroscopic debridement on Sept. 28 as he attempted to recover from a baffling knee injury that has sidelined him for nearly 14 months. The last time he played basketball was Jan. 14, 2022, and he has not been able to run or jump without pain since.The Bulls medical staff has worked in tandem with Ball’s representative team, which has allo...Latest news
