Vondrousova beats Chinese qualifier Wang to win Berlin Open

Associated Press BERLIN (AP) — Former Wimbledon champion Marketa Vondrousova put months of injuries behind her to beat Chinese qualifier Wang Xinyu 7-6 (10), 4-6, 6-2 and win the Berlin Open on Sunday. For the 25-year-old Vondrousova, who had dropped to 164 in the rankings after undergoing surgery on her left shoulder, it's her first title in her first final since winning Wimbledon in 2023. 'We were all working really hard to get me back and I felt like, you know, we came here to try to win the first match and now this is happening. So I'm just very grateful to be standing here and very grateful for you guys,' Vondrousova told her team. Vondrousova defeated top-ranked Aryna Sabalenka 6-2, 6-4 in the semifinals to reach the showdown with Wang, who was playing her seventh match in nine days after coming through the qualifiers. The 23-year-old Wang defeated former champion Liudmila Samsonova in the semifinals to reach her first final. Earlier, she ousted Daria Kasatkina, Coco Gauff and Paula Badosa after qualifying. 'It's been an unbelievable week for us. And I just, we keep on building and looking forward for the next one,' said Wang, who only had 10 wins this year before appearing at the grass-court tournament. ___ AP tennis:

Harry Brook holds England together to trail India by 144 runs at Headingley

Associated Press LEEDS, England (AP) — Harry Brook held England's reply together as India took two wickets on the third morning Sunday of the test series opener at Headingley. Brook was taking the attack to India with 57 not out, and using up lives, as England reached 327-5 at lunch, 144 runs behind India. England scored 118 runs in the session. India spearhead Jasprit Bumrah finally got support from his fellow bowlers as Prasidh Krishna bagged Ollie Pope on 106 and Mohammed Siraj claimed Ben Stokes on 20. Both were nicked off. Bumrah, who took the three England wickets on Saturday but should have had a five-for, had no luck on Sunday, but Brook also had a say. The batter, playing on his home ground, went after all of India's bowlers successfully for his 20th fifty-plus test score in his 42nd inning. He had seven boundaries and, in the day's first over, slogged Krishna for six over deep midwicket. Then Brook came down the track at Bumrah to bash him through the covers. Brook drove Krishna on the up for another four then charged at Siraj. Siraj adjusted but Brook still lifted the ball over the slips cordon to the deep third boundary. Ravindra Jadeja's spin troubled Brook the most but he pulled him to the square leg boundary with one bounce. Jadeja was getting the ball to fizz so well that Rishabh Pant dropped a tough chance at the stumps when Brook gave an outside edge on 46. That was Brook's second life. Bumrah got him caught in Saturday's last over but overstepped. After Pope was out early, adding only six runs to his overnight 100, Brook's assertiveness allowed Stokes to settle. Stokes lasted nearly an hour until he feathered Siraj behind. Jamie Smith, 29 not out, joined Brooks and their partnership by lunch was an unbeaten 51. Both teams wore black armbands following the death of David 'Syd' Lawrence, England's first British-born Black cricketer. He was 61. ___ AP cricket: in this topic

Curaçao draws 1-1 with Canada in CONCACAF Gold Cup after Antonisse's stoppage-time goal

Associated Press HOUSTON (AP) — Jeremy Antonisse scored on a breakaway in second-half stoppage time and Curacao tied Canada 1-1 on Saturday night to remain in contention to advance to the knockout stage of the CONCACAF Gold Cup. Nathan Saliba put Canada ahead in the ninth minute from inside the penalty area. The 21-year-old, playing in his fifth international match, scored for the second game in a row. Antonisse tied the score in the 94th. Jurgen Locadia's apparent goal in the 68th minute was disallowed for offside after a video review. Canada, which started the tournament with a 6-0 win over Honduras, has four points and leads Group B on goal difference over Honduras, which beat El Salvador 2-0 on goals by Romell Quioto in the 33rd minute and Dixon Ramirez in the fifth minute of second-half stoppage time. Curacao has two points and El Salvador one. Seeking their second Gold Cup title and first since 2000, the Canadians close the group stage against El Salvador in Houston on Tuesday, when Honduras plays Curaçao in San Jose, California. Canada is missing star winger Alphonso Davies, who tore his right ACL during the CONCACAF Nations League third-place game against the U.S. on March 23. ___ AP soccer:
