| **The only silver lining to Biden’s painful performance? US voters had already made up their minds | Emma Brockes**, link |
Even Trump’s usual lies could not distract from the president’s decrepitude. But these debates don’t move the needleWho could have foreseen that the scariest thing about the presidential debate on Thursday night wouldn’t be the lies, the bombast or the threats to democracy, but the spectacle of Trump’s slightly wolfish restraint. Heading into the encounter, Democrats felt the kind of anxiety more usually endured before watching a child perform, with that same crushing sense of raw emotions. That Trump barely mocked Biden, or went after his age or his son, seemed less rehearsed than a shrewd response to what all of us were seeing: a president so compromised that all Trump had to do was grin, lean back and let the optics work for him.And still, despite the evidence, it feels wanton to say this. Biden, whose voice was hoarse from a cold, rushed his delivery, fought to find words and stumbled in a style not entirely new to him. The difference on Thursday night was one of degree. “Oh my God” was the general consensus, texted around the country, when the debate opened in Atlanta. While Trump’s remarks were predictably ludicrous, full of lies and inflated claims, nothing he said could distract from the image of Biden saying sensible things in a manner so crepuscular that the entire event jumped from politics to tragedy. It made me think of a line from Rilke: “It had almost hurt to see.” Continue reading…

‘I want them to see I’m happy’: Emma Raducanu relishes Wimbledon return, link
Briton keen to put ‘horrible’ year of injuries behind herRaducanu faces Ekaterina Alexandrova in first roundA year ago, as another Wimbledon fortnight began at last, a few tennis fans caught fleeting glimpses of Emma Raducanu at the All England Club. Early in the tournament, she appeared there for a few brief sponsorship obligations, where she shook a few hands and engaged with fans.Otherwise, she had nothing to do with the tournament in 2023. Last April, Raducanu had surgeries on both wrists and an ankle, ruling her out of action for the rest of the season. In the aftermath, her injuries meant she could barely complete everyday tasks without the help of her mother, let alone play tennis. Missing Wimbledon was excruciating enough, but actually being so close to the action made it feel even worse. Continue reading…
