Tour de France drops lawsuit against spectator; Cav-
endish gets 50th Grand Tour stage win — The Tour de
France has dropped its lawsuit against a 30-year-old spectator
who caused a crash during Stage 1 of the race last Saturday.
With about 30 miles remaining in the first leg of the race, the
woman stepped into the road and held up a sign for the TV
cameras as the peloton approached. She did not get out of the
way fast enough and German cyclist Tony Martin clipped
the sign and fell, causing a chain reaction crash and mas-
sive pileup. Race organizers announced plans to file a lawsuit
against her. Police arrested the woman Wednesday, but on
Thursday Tour officials dropped their lawsuit. On Thursday,
Mark Cavendish, the Tour’s sprint points leader, earned his
second stage win of the week and 50th of his career in a Grand
Tour in the sixth stage of the Tour. Finishing second was Jas-
per Philipsen and in third was Nacer Bouhanni. There were
no major changes among the general classification contenders.
TENNIS
Federer, Gauff, Barty advance at Wimbledon — De-
spite a few early wobbles, American teen Coco Gauff defeated
34-year-old Elena Vesnina 6-4, 6-3 in the second round of
Wimbledon on Thursday. Also on the women’s side, top-
seeded Ashleigh Barty beat Anna Blinkova by the same score.
On the men’s side, No. 6 Roger Federer had little trouble in
dispatching of Frenchman Richard Gasquet 7-6 (1), 6-1, 6-4.
In an all-American battle, 31st seed Taylor Fritz outlasted
Steve Johnson in five sets, 6-4, 7-6 (4), 4-6, 6-7 (4), 6-4.
GOLF
Davis Thompson ahead at Rocket Mortgage Classic
— Davis Thompson, in his third PGA Tour event as a pro-
fessional, is leading the Rocket Mortgage Classic. Thompson
matched a Detroit Golf Club record with a 9-under 63 to take
the early first-round lead. Brandon Hagy, Joaquin Niemann
and Tom Lewis were two shots back.

“The biggest thing is you are
able to recognize when you are
distracted,” said assistant coach
Joey Wong. “That is the whole
point of it.”
The mental preparation
game is a trick of the trade that
Nobach, Graham and Wong
— all former Oregon State
baseball players — picked up
during their playing days. No-
bach said he and more than 20
of his OSU teammates would
meditate daily while playing
for the Beavers, a routine he
has continued into his coach-
ing career.
Wong and Graham were in
professional baseball work-
ing with performance coaches
such as Alan Jaeger and Andy
McKay (currently the director
of player development with the

picked it up.
“I wish I started doing it
when I was these kids’ age,”
Wong said. “I didn’t start un-
til 2015 when I was with the
Rockies playing pro ball. I was
pretty stagnant and looking for
an edge. It helped me refocus,
helped me be more present
and address the thoughts in my
head.”
During a home series with
the Ridgefield Raptors, the Elks
brought in Collin Henderson,
author of “Master your Mind-
set,” to teach the current players
about how the mind is a more
powerful tool than the body.
When lying on the turf,
Gordon — who struck out a
season-high 11 batters Tues-
day in the Elks series-open-
ing win against the Corvallis
Knights — plays out the game
he is about to play in his head.

game routine during a home
series against Ridgefield in
mid-June, the Elks have be-
come one of the hottest teams
in the West Coast League.
After starting the season off
winning just one of their first
10 WCL games, the Elks have
now won seven of nine games
and their last four series, with
series wins over the Wenatchee
Applesox, the Bellingham
Bells, the Cowlitz Black Bears
and the league leading Cor-
vallis Knights. The Elks took
the first two games of the three
game series against the Knights
with a 6-5 series-clinching win
Thursday afternoon in 11 in-
nings that started Wednesday
night and had to be finished
Thursday afternoon.
The biggest change over
that stretch, Nobach said, is
the players getting more com-
fortable with one another and
starting to buy into the pro-
gram.
“When you focus on the
team and you are playing for
the team, the level of play is go-
ing to increase because you ar-
en’t putting pressure or anxiety
on yourself,” he said. “Rather
you are performing for your
teammates, and that takes
time.”

She never doubted she could
do the work, even though she
rarely saw women on NASCAR
teams.
“It’s pretty obvious when
you watch on TV, you can see
if there’s people like you or not
like you and I don’t know that I
had ever seen a woman on the
NASCAR broadcast,” Ashmore
said. “But I don’t think I ever
really thought twice — ‘Can I
do this?’ — because I knew I
was really good at math and
science and I knew I was going
to be a good engineer.”
At Roush, Ashmore said she
was on a trajectory to become
a crew chief — the top job
on a NASCAR team and one
that has never been filled by a
woman at the Cup Series level.
But she’s realistic and believes

tunity to move to Indianapolis
and be closer to friends and
family. In IndyCar, she doesn’t
doubt the chance may come for
a woman to lead a team.
Cara Adams spent 18 years
working her way through Fires-
tone’s organization and in 2019
was promoted to director of
race tire engineering, develop-
ment and manufacturing for
IndyCar’s tire supplier. Adams
is credited with creating a wel-
coming atmosphere for women
in the series and the number of
females in roles outside of pub-
lic relations or marketing-type
jobs has steadily increased.
“If you look at (Honda Per-
formance), they have a fair
number of females and at Ga-
nassi, we have four teams and
two female engineers and two
males — that’s 50% and that’s
pretty incredible for motor
sports,” Ashmore said.
