Описание: We kick off in Melbourne at the MCG for a thrilling AFL Round 13 clash. Kosi Pickett delivered a sensational performance to secure an 8-point victory for the Melbourne Demons over the Collingwood Magpies, keeping their unbeaten home run intact. This highly emotional King's Birthday match featured incredible goals from Nick Daicos and debutant Mitch Podhajski, alongside tense moments as Brayden Maynard and Brody Mihocek suffered serious injuries, and Luca Kentfield celebrated a debut goal. Meanwhile, the Geelong Cats prepare to face Ben King and the Gold Coast Suns, with Connor O'Sullivan gearing up for a tough defensive challenge alongside teammate Max Holmes.

Next, we head to track and field, where Australian pole vaulter Kurtis Marschall pulled off one of the greatest upsets in modern athletics history. Competing at the Stockholm Diamond League meet, Marschall defeated the seemingly invincible world-record holder Mondo Duplantis, clearing 5.90 metres to claim an unforgettable maiden victory.

In swimming, five-time Olympic champion Ian Thorpe gives us the scoop from pool side at the Australian Swimming Trials, where Kaylee McKeown overcame illness to clock the fastest 50m backstroke time in the world this year ahead of the Commonwealth Games and Pan Pacs.

Over in tennis, Alexander Zverev finally secured his maiden Grand Slam title in Paris, fighting through a grueling five-set match against Fabio Cobolli to become the first German man to win a Major since Boris Becker. Finally, in Formula 1, Italian prodigy Kimi Antonelli triumphed at the Monaco Grand Prix, finishing ahead of Lewis Hamilton, while Oscar Piastri placed fourth. The podium also saw a viral celebrity moment as Lewis Hamilton celebrated with girlfriend Kim Kardashian after she famously brushed past reporter Martin Brundle on the grid.
