Hollywood – July 14, 2024, the day has finally come. Not only Wimbledon 2024, but at the time of writing, Spain's Carlos Alcaraz (21 years old) has just won a tennis match. This young and hot tennis player couldn't be more humble. He defeated 37-year-old Novak Djokovic, a seven-time champion, to win his second consecutive Wimbledon. What a monumental victory and how calm he is, no wonder he is called the “Channel Slam”. Alcaraz began his professional tennis career in 2018. Starting at the tender age of 15, he has won three titles on the ITF Men's World Tennis Tour and four titles on the ATP Challenger Tour. It's no wonder he wins, as Alcaraz is always moving forward. Alcaraz is sponsored by Nike for clothing and shoes and Babolat for rackets, and uses a Babolat Pure Aero 98 racket. In January 2022, she became a brand ambassador for Rolex, and the list goes on and on, but she is also an ambassador for Isdin, Spanish food company El Pozo, BMW, and let's not forget she is a brand ambassador for Calvin Klein and Louis Vuitton.
Let's see if today will be Spain's day. Today is also Euro 2024. Yes, the UEFA Euro 2024 final to be held on July 14, 2024 at the Berlin Olympiastadion is between England and Spain. Spain is expected to win. I would be really surprised if Spain loses. Celebrities are flocking to social media to share their teams and the teams they support. Of course, there is former England captain David Beckham. He will surely be there. Prince William will surely be there too. His wife Kate attended the Wimbledon final and presented the trophy to Carlos Alcaraz. She looked amazing in a purple dress and was very slim. Celebrities Joan Collins, Melanie C, Ed Sheeran and Stephen Fry have also sent messages. I woke up with excitement and expectation that England will bring home the victory tonight! Good luck everyone! “
As a message of support for England, Spice Girls' Mel C shared a video of herself singing the lead of the football classic “Three Lions” by comedian David Baddiel and Frank Skinner and the Lightning Seeds at Pub in the Park in Reigate. The singer was wearing a Beckham England shirt in the video. Ed Sheeran, who was in the stands at the semi-final, said in a message, “I really feel like everything is falling into place at the right point. I can't wait for Sunday. We'll be back home. Good luck everyone.” Paul McCartney must be rooting for England too. Actress Kate Beckinsale is another star rooting for England. Mabel and Sam Smith are also rooting for England. Hugh Jackman is also rooting for England, and actually took a break from promoting “Deadpool and Wolverine” to predict a 3-1 victory for England.
So who is the star to cheer for Spain? It has to be Spanish crooner Julio Iglesias who will be cheering for Spain. Not only was he a successful Spanish singer known all over the world, but he was also a professional soccer player. He was the goalkeeper for Real Madrid Castilla in the Segunda División. His soccer career was ruined in 1963 when he was in a serious car accident that left him unable to walk for two years. The accident shattered his lower spine and left his legs permanently weak, requiring several years of treatment. At the hospital, a nurse gave him a guitar, which helped him regain dexterity in his hands. While learning to play the guitar, he discovered his talent for music. The rest is history. His famous son, Enrique Iglesias, will be cheering for Spain.
Tennis legend Rafael Nadal will be rooting for Spain. Carlos Alcaraz will be rooting for Spain. July 14, 2024 will definitely be Spain Day and the Copa America 2024. Who will win? Argentina or Colombia? Argentina is the favorite to win, but underdog Colombia might surprise everyone. Colombian pop icon Shakira will take to the stage at halftime of the Copa America final. Argentina's record against Colombia is impressive: 25 wins, 9 losses, 8 draws. Colombia has only won one of their last 12 matches against Argentina.
Rose's Scoop: I wish all the teams the best of luck. It's going to be fun to watch. Sadly, President Trump was rushed off the stage on July 13, 2024 during a campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania. I was driving in Pennsylvania when I got a call that he had been shot in an assassination attempt. President Trump is “ok,” but the suspect is dead, one spectator is dead, and two are still in critical condition. What I read on social media was alarming, some were happy that he was shot. No one should be happy over an act of gun violence. Everyone around the world, including President Biden, has sent warm messages of comfort to the former president.
