How true? ๐Ÿ”ฅ BREAKING NEWS: The head coach of Sorana Cirstea, Sven Groeneveld, has been fined $200,000 and suspended indefinitely by the International Tennis Federation pending further review, following offensive remarks directed at the family of top player Alexandra Eala after her victory at the Dubai Championships.

THE BIG ONE

From FB - 21 February 2026 ๐Ÿ˜ฑ Philippines “BIG ONE” Countdown: West Valley Fault 368 Years Overdue? ๐Ÿ˜ฑ The Philippines is facing an imminent seismic crisis as the West Valley Fault, which runs directly beneath Metro Manila, is now 368 years overdue for a catastrophic rupture. With over 13 million people living in the immediate vicinity, the potential for disaster looms large. Recent seismic activity has surged dramatically, with the country recording 847 earthquakes in just 30 days, compared to the average of 8 to 12. This alarming increase in earthquakes is not random; it signifies a buildup of stress on the West Valley Fault, which scientists predict will eventually lead to a devastating earthquake. The consequences could be catastrophic, with predictions estimating over 170,000 buildings destroyed and a death toll exceeding 34,000. The interconnected nature of the region's fault systems raises further concerns, as seismic events in one area can trigger reactions in others, creat...

POV: Gareth Curtis Coco Gauff suggests why Alex Eala’s fans treated her differently from other players in Dubai Coco Gauff offered thoughtful insight into the intense crowd energy during her Dubai match against Alex Eala, suggesting why Alex Eala’s fans treated her differently from other players.

She suggested the fervor stems from historic representation—Eala being the first Filipino woman to achieve such high-level success in tennis—creating an emotional investment that feels personal to supporters.
