Spaniards Rafael Nadal and Carlos Alcaraz won’t compete in the upcoming ATP Masters 1000 Monte Carlo, citing health issues in separate social media posts on Tuesday.
“I’m still not ready to compete at the highest level,” wrote Nadal, who is dealing with a hip injury, in a Tweet translated from Spanish. “I will not be able to play in one of the most important tournaments of my career, Monte Carlo. I am not yet in a position to play with the maximum guarantees and I continue my preparation process, hoping to return soon.”
Nadal has won 11 titles on the clay courts of Monte Carlo, a tune-up event for the French Open, including eight straight from 2005-12. The 36-year-old has been victorious a record 14 times at Roland Garros in Paris.
Alcaraz, who slipped to No. 2 in the world following last week’s Miami Open, said he is experiencing problems with his left hand and back.
“After two months abroad, I am happy to return home but sad because I finished my last match in Miami with physical discomfort,” he wrote.
“I will not be able to go to Monte Carlo to start the clay court circuit. “I have post-traumatic arthritis in my left hand and muscular discomfort in the spine that needs rest to prepare for everything that is to come.”

What is to come includes tournaments in Barcelona and Madrid, which Alcaraz won last season. The French Open begins May 28, and five of the 19-year-old’s eight ATP wins have come on clay.
The Bay Area of Northern California will be the home of the 14th National Women’s Soccer League franchise, the league announced Tuesday.
The team will join the recently announced expansion Utah Royals in the league in 2024.
The majority owner of the Bay Area club will be Sixth Street, a global investment firm that also holds stakes in Real Madrid, FC Barcelona and the San Antonio Spurs. The New York Times reported the group will invest $125 million to launch the club, paying the league a $53 million expansion fee — more than 10 times what ownership in Kansas City paid for that franchise in 2021.
Between $30 million and $50 million of the initial funding will be spent on building a training facility, with the remainder for team operations and branding, per the Times.
“The number of bids and the increase in the league’s expansion fees are indicative of both the demand that exists for women’s soccer in the professional sports landscape and the validated growth trajectory of our league,” NWSL commissioner Jessica Berman said in a news release.
Sixth Street worked with former U.S. Women’s National Team players Brandi Chastain, Leslie Osborne, Danielle Slaton and Aly Wagner in the bid. Known as the “Founding Football Four,” they will be represented on the majority female board and help to set the team’s direction.
Chastain, remembered for kicking the winner for the United States in a penalty shootout in the 1999 Women’s World Cup, is a San Jose native.
“The Bay Area is where this all began,” she said. “We are as excited about what this club will achieve on the field of play as we are for what it will represent for generations of women athletes and professionals yet to come. We look forward to the Bay fans embracing our team and celebrating the competitive spirit and talent we will put onto the field to continue the strong Bay tradition of playing to win championships.”
L’Oreal and Natura & Co., (LRLCY) two leading cosmetic companies in France and Brazil recently released a statement that said that L’Oreal would buy Aesop. The Monday announcement said that the Australian luxury brand would be acquired at an enterprise value of $2.53 billion. The deal is expected to close in the third quarter of the year and will be a cash deal on its closing date.
The high-end cosmetic giant has been looking to expand into other markets including the Chinese as it is increasing its presence in markets where consumers remain less affected by economic downturn and market factors.
Brazil’s Natura has been looking for financial relief as it faces huge debts and smaller profit margins. The sale of its luxury Australian brand Aesop is expected to minimize its financial issues to some extent. The deal is part of the changes in the company after Fabio Barbosa took over from former chief executive and executive chairman Roberto Marques.
Aesop was established by Natura and Co. in 1987. The cosmetic firm has its headquarters in Melbourne, Australia. It sells skin and hair care as well as body care products.
Aesop is an extremely profitable brand of Natura. It operates roughly 400 stores. In 2022, it reached $22 million in sales, which is about 21 percent higher than the sales in 2021.
The Natura brand is also the owner of Avon and The Body Shop. It acquired The Body Shop from L’Oreal in 2017.
French cosmetic giant L’Oreal expects its sales to increase after the acquisition of Aesop. It has a history of acquiring emerging brands and making them better with the help of its distribution network across the globe.

Toronto Maple Leafs goaltender Matt Murray is day-to-day with a head injury and “other stuff” after Sunday’s collision with Detroit Red Wings forward Lucas Raymond forced him from the game.
The Maple Leafs recalled fellow goaltender Joseph Woll on an emergency basis, according to TSN.
Murray was injured in the first period after Raymond lost his balance and accidentally took out the goalie’s leg, ending with a nasty fall to the ice. Murray’s back was turned when it happened.
Leafs coach Sheldon Keefe said it was “mandatory” that Murray exit the game. Primary keeper Ilya Samsonov replaced Murray in the 5-2 loss to the Red Wings.
Murray left after 16:16 time on ice. He was tested for a concussion but Keefe didn’t disclose the results Tuesday, saying only that Murray was day-to-day with the injury and “other stuff.”
Murray, 28, is 14-8-2 on the season with a 3.01 goals-against average and .903 save percentage.
Woll is 3-1-0 with a 2.03 GAA and .934 save percentage in four games this season.
The Seattle Kraken can move a step closer toward their first playoff berth on Tuesday night when they travel to Vancouver to face the Canucks.
Seattle (42-26-8, 92 points) increased its lead for the first wild-card spot in the Western Conference to three points over Winnipeg and five points over Calgary with an 8-1 victory Monday night over Arizona in the front end of a back-to-back.
The Kraken, who are in their second NHL season, have six games remaining compared with five for the Jets and Flames.
Monday’s win marked the fourth time this season that Seattle scored eight goals in a game. In addition, they scored nine in a 9-8 overtime victory at Los Angeles on Nov. 29.
“Every two points is big,” Seattle coach Dave Hakstol told NHL.com. “We talk about it all the time. You don’t look too far back and you don’t look too far forward. You just worry about working and doing what you have to do to get two points, and the score doesn’t matter.”
Jared McCann, playing in his 500th NHL game, had two goals and Philipp Grubauer made 20 saves as the Kraken handed the Coyotes their eighth straight loss (0-6-2) on Monday.
McCann’s first goal was shorthanded. His second goal, his team-leading 37th, came near the end of the second period to make the score 4-1 and featured an assist from Grubauer. The Kraken added four goals in the third period.
“I think we did a good job of keeping our foot on the gas and closing it out,” said defenseman Carson Soucy, who had a goal and an assist. “When it was tight there for a bit, we did a good job of focusing on what we needed to do to just kind of wear them down.”
Vancouver (34-35-7, 75 points) was eliminated from playoff contention Sunday, when they lost 4-1 to Los Angeles, the third setback in a row (0-1-2) for the Canucks.
Afterward, Vancouver center J.T. Miller called out his team’s lack of intensity and toughness in the contest.
“We didn’t really compete that hard to outplay that team,” Miller said. “It wasn’t going to come easy and we had some looks (offensively). But it just feels like it’s a little too soft right now. It doesn’t feel like we’re that hard to play against sometimes.
“I don’t know for some reason why we feel like that’s OK as a group. I know I’m being a little harsh right now, but I don’t like not playing the right way and not being assertive. We have a million reasons to be playing hard right now. It just seems like other teams are having their way with us a little bit.”
Goaltender Thatcher Demko said it’s important that the Canucks finish strong to build momentum heading into next season.
“We’re trying to make sure these last six games count for something,” he said. “We’ve been trying to make this stretch, the last month or so, count for something in the big picture.”
Tuesday will mark the final matchup of four meetings between the border rivals this season. Vancouver won the first two, 5-4 on Oct. 27 at Seattle and 6-5 in a shootout on Dec. 22 in Vancouver, while the Kraken won the most recent meeting, 6-1 on Jan. 25 in Seattle.
The Vegas Golden Knights are doing their best to hold on to the Pacific Division lead.
Their next challenge will come Tuesday night when they oppose the host Nashville Predators to wrap up a brief two-game road trip.
Vegas rallied for a 4-3 win over the Minnesota Wild on Monday in Saint Paul, Minn., scoring the tying goal with 34.2 seconds left in regulation and prevailing in a shootout.
“These are important games for us,” Vegas forward Keegan Kolesar said. “We’re a team that, if we want to go the distance, we might be seeing (Minnesota) later on. So, for us, it’s taking care of business, home or away, whatever it may be.”
The Golden Knights (48-22-7, 103 points) opened a three-point edge over the second-place Los Angeles Kings in the Pacific with five games left for both teams — including a head-to-head matchup on Thursday in Las Vegas.
If the pressure from the Kings wasn’t heavy enough, the Edmonton Oilers are one point behind the Kings ahead of a game at Los Angeles on Tuesday.
The Pacific race arguably has been the best in the NHL, as the top three teams in the division played extremely well in March and are continuing that trend in April.
The Oilers went 12-2-1 in March, the Kings 9-2-2 and the Golden Knights 11-3-1. The three teams are a combined 5-0-0 through the first three days of April.
“We’re down the final stretch here and every point matters,” Kolesar said. “To get that second point (in the shootout), you never know how big that’s going to become until the very end, and whenever we get an opportunity to collect two points we’re going to do our best.”
The Predators (38-30-8, 84 points) saw their playoff hopes further evaporate with a 5-1 road loss to the Dallas Stars on Monday night.
Nashville is five points back of the Winnipeg Jets for the second and final Western Conference wild card. The Predators have six games left and the Jets five.
The Calgary Flames sit between Nashville and Winnipeg, and the Jets will host the Flames on Wednesday and the Predators on Saturday.
Five of Nashville’s final six games are against teams currently holding a playoff spot, with the Flames being the only exception.
Only two of Winnipeg’s final five games are against teams currently in a playoff position.
One of the bright spots for the Predators in the Monday loss was the play of Mark Jankowski, who went 7-2 in the faceoff circle.
“He’s a good player, he’s a smart player, he slows the game down,” Nashville right winger Michael McCarron said of Jankowski. “He can protect pucks well in the corner, and he’s good in the faceoff dots. You know pretty much every time he’s going to win the draw, so it makes our job easier. We start with the puck and we can forecheck from there, so we’re not chasing the puck the whole game.”
The Golden Knights have been lifted in the last month by Pavel Dorofeyev, who scored two goals against the Wild. He has seven goals in 10 games since he was recalled from Henderson of the AHL on March 12.
“He’s scorching,” Kolesar said. “I don’t even want to be around him. I’m going to get second-degree burns.”
Reilly Smith scored the game-winner in the fifth round of a shootout and Pavel Dorofeyev netted two goals in regulation during the Vegas Golden Knights’ 4-3 victory over the Minnesota Wild on Monday in Saint Paul, Minn.
Despite the defeat, the Wild clinched a playoff berth thanks to the point for the overtime loss plus the Nashville Predators’ 5-1 loss to the Dallas Stars.
After Joel Eriksson Ek and Dorofeyev traded goals in the fourth round of the shootout, Vegas goaltender Laurent Brossoit made a blocker save on Ryan Hartman to start the fifth round. Smith then put a backhander through the pads of Minnesota goalie Filip Gustavsson to win it and also give the Golden Knights a three-game sweep of their season series with the Wild.
William Karlsson had two assists and Keegan Kolesar also scored for Vegas, while Brossoit finished with 30 saves. Matt Boldy scored his 30th goal of the season and also had an assist and Brandon Duhaime and John Klingberg also scored goals for Minnesota. Gustavsson stopped 23 shots.
Stars 5, Predators 1
Jason Robertson had a goal and three assists to cross the 100-point plateau and Dallas clinched a Stanley Cup playoff berth with a win against visiting Nashville.
Robertson, 23, has 43 goals and 58 assists. Joe Pavelski had a goal and an assist and Scott Wedgewood made 26 saves for the Stars in his return from a lower-body injury that kept him out for a month and a half. Miro Heiskanen had two assists.
Cal Foote scored and Juuse Saros made 21 saves for the Predators. Nashville has dropped four of its past six games and is five points behind the Winnipeg Jets for the second wild-card spot in the Western Conference.
Kraken 8, Coyotes 1
Seven different Seattle players recorded multi-point games as the Kraken routed visiting Arizona and moved closer to clinching a playoff berth.
Jared McCann scored two goals for Seattle, and Morgan Geekie, Ryan Donato and Carson Soucy each had a goal and an assist. Daniel Sprong, Justin Schultz and Vince Dunn each had two assists, and Jordan Eberle, William Borgen and Oliver Bjorkstrand also scored. Philipp Grubauer stopped 20 shots.
Lawson Crouse scored the only goal of the game for the Coyotes, who are 0-6-2 in their past eight games. Ivan Prosvetov made 24 saves.
Seven different Seattle players recorded multi-point games as the Kraken rolled to an 8-1 rout of the visiting Arizona Coyotes on Monday.
The victory brings the Kraken (42-26-8, 92 points) a step closer to clinching a playoff berth in their second NHL season. Seattle holds the top Western Conference wild-card position, three points ahead of the Winnipeg Jets in the second wild-card slot and five points ahead of the Calgary Flames.
Jared McCann scored two goals in his 500th NHL game, his fifth multi-goal performance of the season. McCann leads the Kraken with 37 goals, which also marks a career high for the veteran forward.
Seattle’s Morgan Geekie, Ryan Donato and Carson Soucy each had a goal and an assist. Daniel Sprong, Justin Schultz and Vince Dunn each had two assists.
Dunn achieved a double milestone on his second helper of the game, as it was both his 50th assist of the season and his 200th career NHL point.
Jordan Eberle, William Borgen and Oliver Bjorkstrand also scored for the Kraken.
Lawson Crouse scored the only goal of the game for Arizona (27-38-13, 67 points).
The Coyotes are winless (0-6-2) in their past eight games. Arizona also had a nine-game losing streak (0-9-0) earlier this season.
The Kraken’s special teams units were the story of the first period. Eberle tipped in a Sprong pass for a power-play goal at the 4:54 mark, and McCann then delivered a short-handed goal 15:07 into the opening frame.
Borgen and Soucy each tallied their third goals of the season, ending lengthy scoring droughts. Borgen hadn’t scored in his previous 61 games, while Soucy was scoreless in his previous 41 games.
Philipp Grubauer stopped 20 of 21 shots for his 15th win in 35 games this season. Grubauer was in need of a solid outing as the Seattle goaltender had an .850 save percentage over his previous six appearances.
Coyotes goalie Ivan Prosvetov stopped 24 of 32 shots.
There could be more than just fashion risks involved when buying a pair of leggings or a raincoat.
Just how much risk is still not clear, but toxic chemicals have been found in hundreds of consumer products and clothing bought off the racks nationwide.
Thousands of perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances, or PFAS, exist since the first ones were invented in the 1940s to prevent stains and sticking. PFAS chemicals are used in nonstick cookware, water-repellent clothing, and firefighting foam. Their manufacture and persistence in products have contaminated drinking water nationwide. Also known as “forever chemicals,” these substances do not break down in the environment and can accumulate in our bodies over time.
Until now, federal regulations on PFAS in consumer products have largely focused on a handful of the older-generation forever chemicals, such as PFOA, or perfluorooctanoic acid. But new state-level laws are targeting all forever chemicals.
Consumers concerned about clothing are also turning to the courts. A torrent of recent class-action lawsuits claim brands falsely advertise their products as environmentally sustainable or healthy while containing toxic levels of PFAS chemicals. In January, Thinx, which makes reusable period underwear, agreed to pay up to $5 million to settle a suit. Another lawsuit, against REI, largely targeting its raincoat line, is proceeding in court.
From production to being worn, washed, and then disposed, “PFAS in clothing and textiles can lead to harmful exposures,” claimed Avinash Kar, a senior attorney at the National Resources Defense Council, an international nonprofit environmental advocacy organization.
Although the full health risks of wearing togs alleged to be toxic are still unknown, the potential implications are wide-reaching. A report from the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine linked PFAS exposure to cancer, thyroid dysfunction, small changes in birth weight, and high cholesterol, among other concerns.
So how concerned should consumers be about wearing clothing with forever chemicals in them?
PFAS have been found in a wide variety of garments such as rain jackets, hiking pants, shirts, and yoga pants and sports bras made by popular brands like Lululemon and Athleta.
Forever chemicals are used as surface treatments to block water and stains. In fact, a 2022 report by Toxic-Free Future, an environmental health research and advocacy organization, found that nearly three-quarters of products labeled as water- or stain-resistant tested positive for them.
The group points to research demonstrating that fabrics with that type of PFAS, called side-chain fluorinated polymers, emit volatile chemicals into the air and, when washed, into the water. “What you can expect is that a raincoat that has this surface treatment, over time, is releasing PFAS to the environment,” said Erika Schreder, Toxic-Free Future’s science director.
PFAS can also be used as a membrane – a thin layer sandwiched in the fabric that blocks water from passing through. This technology is found in products made with Gore-Tex. Such breathable yet waterproof layers of fabric are used in jackets, pants, boots, and gloves in dozens of brands of outdoors wear. Sometimes, garments have both membranes and surface treatments.
A study published last year by the American Chemical Society found textile products sold in the U.S. and Canada contained high concentrations of PFAS in materials used in children’s uniforms marketed as stain-resistant.
“This was concerning to us because these uniforms are on up to eight or 10 hours a day, every day, by children during their school year,” said Marta Venier, an assistant professor at Indiana University-Bloomington and co-author of the study. “Children are particularly susceptible to exposure to chemicals because their organs are still developing.”
But skin-touching fabric is only one way people are likely to be exposed to these chemicals. PFAS have found their way into most households through water, air, dust, and soap. PFAS can also shed from carpeting or furniture, as well as fabric treatments sprayed on furniture and clothing.
Studying skin or “dermal exposure” from wearing fabric is particularly tricky. Just because a product contains PFAS doesn’t mean the chemical will travel from that jacket or pair of shorts across the skin into the bloodstream, said Stuart Harrad, a professor of environmental chemistry at the University of Birmingham.
So far, Harrad has found that PFAS can end up – either from fabric or dust particles – in the skin’s oil and sweat. But more research needs to be done to examine whether those chemicals transfer into the blood. “From what we’ve seen, it’s certainly something that we shouldn’t be ignoring,” he said.
In general, however, it’s harder for PFAS chemicals to enter the body through transdermal exposure than through the digestive system, said Dr. Ned Calonge, associate dean for public health practice of the Colorado School of Public Health who co-authored the national academies’ report.
Levi Strauss has halted using the chemicals. Other brands, such as Patagonia, L.L. Bean, Lululemon, and Eddie Bauer, have pledged to phase them out in the next few years. In late February, REI released updated standards that require most cookware and textile products to be PFAS-free by fall 2024. The retailer said in a statement last year that it has been “working for years to phase out PFAS” and is “testing new alternatives.”
W.L. Gore & Associates, inventor of Gore-Tex and a giant manufacturer of weather-repellent fabric, said it plans to “transition the vast majority of its consumer portfolio by end of 2025.” Last year, the company debuted a membrane that uses non-fluorinated materials and can be found in jackets sold by Arc’teryx, Patagonia, and other brands.
Still, without oversight, corporate commitments are not a guarantee, and there’s always concern of contamination, PFAS experts said. Gore, for example, said years ago that the company had eliminated PFOA from its materials. But in its testing last year, Toxic-Free Future found it in REI Gore-Tex rain jackets. Gore spokesperson Amy Calhoun rebutted those findings and said the company considers itself a leader in “responsible chemical management.”
People in the chemical field view this as an inflection point and are watching closely as companies phase out forever chemicals and pressing for transparency about what alternatives are chosen and how safe they might be.
The EPA has set out to regulate some older-generation chemicals generally found in imported products. Those have also been banned in the European Union and phased out by major U.S. manufacturers, often replaced by newer-generation PFAS, which leave the body more swiftly and are less likely to build up in organs. “When discussing the broad group of chemicals known as PFAS, it is important to note not all PFAS are the same,” said Calhoun. Some Gore products use PTFE, a polymer the company says is “of low concern.” According to a growing body of research, though, these newer PFAS often have similar levels of toxicity.
Stricter, state-level bans targeting apparel are rolling out. Maine now requires companies to report PFAS in their products to state officials. The chemicals will be fully banned there by the start of 2030, while Washington state will restrict PFAS in apparel as well as in other consumer products by 2025.
The most important legislation has come in two states with large consumer markets that manufacturers would be loath to avoid, effectively setting a standard for the nation. A New York law signed in late December bans the sale of garments with PFAS by the end of 2023. A California law passed last year restricts companies from manufacturing, distributing, or selling PFAS-containing clothing beginning in 2025, but those rules won’t apply to extreme weather and personal protective apparel until 2028.
So where does that leave consumers? Calonge said that people who already have high levels of PFAS in their blood serum should have a heightened sense of awareness about the clothing they wear. Community-level blood testing is underway in areas with known PFAS exposure, but individuals can also seek it out by asking their doctors.
“That’s when I would make a decision to not wear clothing that I know has PFAS in it,” he said.
Without sound evidence linking skin exposure from clothing to upticks in PFAS in blood serum levels, Calonge said, for now, decisions are largely left up to risk tolerance.
