This is today’s sports news.
    In the world of tennis, the London International Tennis Tournament ended today. Samuel Cox of the United States was the winner with Lloyd Smith, of Great Britain, finishing second. Cox scored a decisive victory over Smith in his first major victory outside the United States. His victory also marked the first time that an American has won the London Tennis Tournament in over fifty years. The only other American to win it was Fred Jackson in 1938. Cox won the tournament quickly in three sets. He started out playing aggressively, and the overwhelmed Smith could not keep up with its overpowering serves. Cox took home the $ 500,000 cash prize and Smith received $ 350,000. When asked about the big victory, Cox stated he just hopes to be able to win again in next month’s tournaments in Paris and Copenhagen.
    In the world of soccer, Cuba upset Germany, last year’s winner, in the opening games of the International Soccer Cup. The Cuban team won in a difficult match that lasted over five hours. The match was intense, and their victory shocked many who believed that the German team could easily defeat the relatively obscure Cuban team. The German coach, noticeably disappointed at their first, round loss, told reporters that he hopes to train his team harder for next year’s tournament. Cuba will play Brazil in the next game tomorrow. Overjoyed at their surprise victory, they hope to continue this winning streak and eventually capture the tournament.
