3 min readUpdated: Jul 8, 2026 07:39 PM IST ITF Junior World No. 19 Arnav Paparkar on Wednesday became the first Indian in 36 years to reach the quarterfinal of the Wimbledon Juniors Boys’ Singles with a 6-2, 6-1 win over Japan’s Ryo Tabata. The 18-year-old has joined some elite company in Indian tennis history with the last player from the country to reach this stage being Leander Paes in 1990. Earlier, Paparkar had raised eyebrows with a stunning 6-2, 6-3 win over junior World No.3, Keaton Hance, of the United States. Standing just over six feet tall, Paparkar had told the Indian Tennis Daily earlier this year that he sees his first serve as his primary weapon. His strengths came good for him against Hance, as he had another strong showing, serving six aces, saving all the breakpoints he faced while conceding only 18 points on serve. This monstrous performance helped him record the biggest win of his career so far. A trainee at Hemant Bendrey Tennis Academy under the guidance of coach Prosonjit …

An 11-year-old’s birthday present from his parents is about to fetch him money beyond his dreams. When the boy received a hobby box of 2024 Topps Chrome Update for Christmas, he found a redemption card in the box. Though his father mistook it as a checklist, the boy knew better and after he sent it back to Topps, they received the highly-prized one-of-one autographed Paul Skenes MLB debut patch card. Such has been the craze around Skenes, the American baseball pitcher of the Pittsburgh Pirates this year, that the 11 year old might end up making more money than Skenes MLB salary if the auction goes as expected. As of Wednesday night, there have been 56 bids, with the highest bid reportedly as high as 550000 USD. The family had turned over the card to the auction house Fanatics Collect, and there is still a week left before the bids end on March 20. For the record, the All-Star pitcher Skenes is set to make a base salary of $800,000 this season. Some publications like …
