LONDON - Sabine Lisicki is allergic to Wimbledon, sort of. Not the town in southwest London, and not the All England Club, per se. But she does have hay fever, making her actually hypersensitive to the very grass that the tournament is so famous for. That affliction, of course, wont stop her from playing in the Wimbledon final on Saturday, when either she or Marion Bartoli will end up with their first Grand Slam title. "I learned how to cope with that," the 23-year-old Lisicki said Friday of her hay fever. "In the beginning, the first time I was here, which was, what, five years ago, I really was struggling with the allergies. But by now I know what to do, what to take, to calm those allergies down. Im on medication." She also knows what to do tennis-wise when she steps onto the finely manicured lawn on Centre Court. On Thursday, the 23rd-seeded German rallied from a 3-0 deficit in the third set to beat Agnieszka Radwanska and reach her first major final. She did the same thing in the fourth round, when she eliminated defending champion Serena Williams. "I had a lot of challenges on my way to the finals with players being aggressive, players who were very solid, moving very well," Lisicki said. "So it will be another challenge." Saturdays match will be only the second time in the 45-year Open era that two women who have never won a Grand Slam trophy will play for the championship at the All England Club. And its difficult to say who has the edge. Bartoli has been here before, reaching the 2007 Wimbledon final before losing to Venus Williams. And she hasnt lost a set so far this year, winning all six of her matches in straight sets. But Lisicki is 3-1 against Bartoli, including a win at Wimbledon two years ago when the German reached the semifinals. "A final of a Grand Slam is always a matter of details. Maybe a point here, a point there will make the difference," said Bartoli, now 28 and much more experienced than the last time she made it this far. "Maybe someone who is a bit more gutsy than the other player, someone who is having a better day than the others. "Sabine is definitely serving faster than me, especially on the first serve," Bartoli added. "I might take the ball a bit earlier. But obviously we both have the same thing, playing fairly flat and from the baseline and trying to hit some winners." Lisickis power game is something to note. Her hard serves have earned her the nickname "Boom Boom Bine," a moniker she shares with another German tennis great, three-time Wimbledon champion Boris Becker. On Friday, "Boom Boom Bine" took a moment to seek out some advice from "Boom Boom Becker." "I asked him a couple of questions, how it was for him," Lisicki said. "He won the first final he was in, so thats pretty good." Lisicki has also been receiving well-wishes from Steffi Graf, the last German woman to win the Wimbledon title in 1996. But Bartoli has Amelie Mauresmo on her side, a 2006 Wimbledon champion who now coaches Frances Davis Cup team. After years of disagreements and disputes with the French tennis federation, Mauresmo has brought Bartoli back into the national team fold. And she has been watching Bartoli throughout her run to the final, even extending her stay at Wimbledon as Bartoli extended hers. "Shes helping me with the way I need to deal with my stress and with my energy out of the court. Sometimes I was losing too (much) energy being too focused for too long, especially a lot of times before the matches," Bartoli said. "I felt when I was going on court, I was already tired from it." Part of her relaxation routine — and Lisickis, too — comes from music. Both said they listen to certain tunes when they are gearing up for a match. "Bob Sinclar, Summer Moonlight. The same track over and over," Bartoli said. "When I walk on court, probably Play Hard," Lisicki guessed. Soon enough, the music in their ears will die down and give way to the thwack of the racket and the sound of the crowd. Thats when one of the two will start on the path to being a Wimbledon champion. "I just want to be better than my opponent," Lisicki said. "Thats all Im thinking about."Preston Brown Jersey .

Reedie served as an IOC vice president and member of the policy-making executive board until his term expired during the Olympics in Rio de Janeiro. He is now a regular IOC memberThe Copenhagen summit proposed a rule that would forbid officers, directors, employees and all decision-makers of anti-doping bodies from also holding a top position in any international federation or major event organization.The Institute of National Anti-Doping Organizations said the proposal would prevent the inherent conflict of interest that exists when a sports organization is tasked with both promoting and policing itself.The IOC set up WADA in 2009 and provides 50 percent of the agencys funding, with national governments covering the other half.IOC President Thomas Bach has proposed making the anti-doping system independent from sports organizations and called for the creation of an independent agency to carry out global drug testing. The IOC has scheduled a meeting for Oct. 8 to consider ways of improving the international system.The exposure of widespread doping in Russia has led to a crisis in confidence in the entire global anti-doping fight. IOC members blamed WADA for not acting early enough to deal with evidence of Russian ddoping, while the IOC was accused of being soft on Russia by not banning the country entirely from the Rio Games.ddddddddddddThe anti-doping leaders meeting in Denmark represented countries that included the United States, Australia, Canada, France, Germany and Britain.They said WADA should be strengthened and given the independence and authority to impose sanctions for large-scale subversions of the anti-doping system, such as the state-backed system in Russia. WADA currently has had no power to impose sanctions against a sport or a country, leaving that to the IOC and other bodies.WADA must have authority and capacity to investigate and to impose proportional sanctions and consequences for all instances of code non-compliance, the officials in Copenhagen said in their final statement.They also expressed unequivocal support for the completion of the investigation into Russian doping by Canadian lawyer Richard McLaren. His report detailed manipulation of drug samples at the 2014 Sochi Winter Games, as well as cover-ups of doping tests across dozens of summer and winter sports.The leaders called for increased protection and support for whistleblowers, including Yulia Stepanova and her husband, Vitaly, who helped expose the doping culture in their homeland.All relevant organizations should do everything in their power to protect and ensure safety, security and sustainable future for Yulia and Vitaly and the other whistleblowers, the statement said.The IOC rejected Stepanovas bid to compete in the Rio Games after the IAAF recommended the 800-meter runner be allowed to participate as a neutral athlete.Stepanova and her husband have been living in the United States. She said recently that she fears for her safety and has switched residences after hackers breached a WADA database that records her whereabouts.Bach said in Rio that the IOC was not responsible for dangers to which Mrs. Stepanova may be exposed.[url=http://www.authenticwhoers breached a WADA database that recorketball Jerseys[/url] Wholesale Baseball Jerseys ' ' '
