Super rugby
The Stormers seem to be in top form this season, as they still remain unbeaten after coming off a 53 – 10 victory against the Cheetahs at Newlands, on Saturday. The Stormers now sit 1 point behind the Lions, on the log. The Cheetahs seemed to be having an off game, suffered from several handling mistakes and missed thirty tackles, and it seems that the final score reflected all of that.
The Blue Bulls seemed as if they were getting back on form by half-time, with the score being 9-3 in their match against the Chiefs. However it seemed as if they begun to run out of steam towards the end of the second half. Throughout the game it seemed like close match, however when it came down to it, it seems like they couldn’t measure up, with the score being 28 -12, after the final whistle.

Tennis
Roger Federer seems to truly be back after coming off a six month lay-off due to an injury, picking up his 3rd title in 2017. He already has won the Australian Open and the Indian Wells, and now he has won the Miami Open by defeating, long-time rival Rafeal Nadal 6-3,6-4. This is Federer’s fourth consecutive victory over Nadal. Federer then announced that he will be taking a 2 months break from the court before playing in the French Open.
