North American esports organization Renegades, owned by Boston Celtics forward Jonas Jerebko, is expanding its esports holdings into Super Smash Bros. Maillot France Zinedine Zidane . by acquiring Super Smash Bros. Melee player James Swedish Delight Liu and Super Smash Bros. for Wii U player Samuel Dabuz Buzby. Both will begin competing under the Renegades banner Friday at one of the years largest tournaments, The Big House 6 in Dearborn, Michigan.Smash is a great community and is what esports is all about, Jerebko tells ESPN about his organizations expansion. Renegades would like to support gaming communities that have been here from the beginning. We are excited to have Sam and James join the family.The signings come after both players have had strong years while competing in tournaments in their respective games.In Melee, Swedish Delight, previously ranked 31st on the Melee It On Me Super Smash Bros. Melee annual ranking, has dramatically risen in tournament placements this year. In June, he took second to Juan Hungrybox Debiedma at Smash N Splash 2 in Gurnee, Illinois. But that wasnt his only top finish as he took fourth at Pound 2016, ninth at both Community Effort Orlando and Evolution 2016, and fifth at Shine 2016. Smash analyst Daniel TAFOkints Lee recently ranked Swedish Delight as 10th in his fall Melee power rankings.Im looking forward towards taking the next step in my career as a professional Smash player, Swedish Delight tells ESPN. Renegades has the best people in terms of experience, knowledge, and compassion I could work with to make me a better player. When I started playing, I never wouldve thought I would reach the level Im at right now. I cant wait to see what I can really achieve now that I have the full support of an organization as great as Renegades.Meanwhile, in Smash for Wii U, Dabuz has proven to be among the most consistent players in the game, currently holding third in the Panda Global Rankings. He took second at the years debut major, Genesis 3, only falling to Gonzalo ZeRo Barrios, who is considered the games best player. He then took ninth at Pound 2016, first at Apex 2016, first at WTFox 2, third at Community Effort Orlando 2016, seventh at Evolution 2016, and second at Super Smash Con 2016.Im really glad to be joining Renegades and its exciting to now be part of a great team, Dabuz tells ESPN. I have a lot of faith that Renegades will help me grow as a competitor and personality as I keep pursuing my dream to pursue being the best player I can be. I also am happy to representing a team with a lot of genuine people, and what really stood out to me is that the members and owners of Renegades have a clear passion in esports and want to be at the forefront of its growth.In August, Jerebko, former Team Liquid Counter-Strike head coach James Jame^s OConnor, and an ownership group purchased the Renegades brand from League of Legends shoutcaster Christopher MonteCristo Mykles and Chris Badawi. Since acquiring the team, Jerebko and crew re-signed Renegades Australian Counter-Strike squad and picked up the former Dream Team Call of Duty team. Smash marks their third esport as a team since the acquisition and rebrand. Maillot Steven Nzonzi .

RIO DE JANEIRO -- Out of sorts and out of answers, defending champion Serena Williams is out of the Rio de Janeiro Olympics.Shanking shots of all sorts, including five -- yes, five! -- double-faults in one game alone, Williams lost to Elina Svitolina of Ukraine 6-4, 6-3 in the third round in a real shocker Tuesday, ending the No. 1-seeded Americans bid to become the first tennis player to collect a pair of singles golds.It didnt work out the way I wanted it to, Williams said.Facing an unheralded opponent who at times couldnt seem to miss, Williams had problems right from the start, when she got broken to fall behind 2-1 with a badly missed overhead into the net.That set a pattern.By the end, Svitolina had won 63 points, but merely nine came via clean winners of her own doing. The others came thanks to Williams 37 unforced errors and 17 forced errors.The better player won, said Williams, who did not take questions from the media after the match and instead did a brief interview with a U.S. Tennis Association spokesman who shared the audio with reporters.After winning golds in singles and doubles at the 2012 London Olympics, Williams heads home from Brazil with nothing. She and her older sister Venus, who sat in the stands Tuesday, lost in the first round as the No. 1 seed in womens doubles -- their first defeat in the Olympics after going 15-0 with three golds.Of the four tennis events under way in Rio -- mixed doubles hasnt started yet -- all four No. 1 seeds are gone, including Novak Djokovic in mens singles.No one in the history of Olympic tennis has ever won two gold medals in singles, and while Williams wont achieve that this week, Andy Murray or Rafael Nadal still could.Both moved into the third round Tuesday. Neither has been tested much, dropping a total of nine games apiece so far.This is Nadals first tournament since he pulled out of the French Open in May with an injured tendon sheath in his left wrist, and the No. 3 seed wasnt even sure he would compete until testing his arm once he arrived in Brazil. Still, everything is going exactly to plan for the owner of 14 Grand Slam championships and the 2008 Beijing Olympic title, who beat Italys Andreas Seppi 6-3, 6-3.Not much pressure for me, Nadal said. Two months without competing, I dont expect much.Murray, who won gold at the 2012 London Games and is seeded No. 2, breezed past Argentinas Juan Monaco 6-3, 6-1.The womens quarterfinals are set: Svitolina vs. Petra Kvitova of the Czech Republic; Angelique Kerber of Germany vs. Johanna Konta off Britain; Madison Keys of the U. Maillot Equipe De France Pas Cher 2018. S. vs. Daria Kasatkina of Russia; and Monica Puig of Puerto Rico vs. Laura Siegemund of Germany.No. 3 Garbine Muguruza, who beat Williams to win the French Open title, also lost Tuesday, 6-1, 6-1 against Puig.The 20th-ranked Svitolina never before played in the Olympics and only once has been to a major quarterfinal. She also entered the night 0-4 against Williams, an owner of 22 Grand Slam singles championships.Unreal feeling, Svitolina said after the biggest win of her career, adding: Its so special to beat her here.Their most recent match came at the French Open, and Williams won 6-1, 6-1.Give credit this time to Svitolina, who played a fearless brand of big-strike tennis, sending deep groundstrokes off both wings toward lines and managing to put most right where she wanted them.Im really happy I could take risks, Svitolina said.She ended the first set with an ace and a blank stare, as if this were no big deal and she knew she would do this all along.Afterward, she sounded as if she did.I was expecting that I can play well, as well, and just push her to her limits, Svitolina said. Obviously, she was not playing well today.After 45 minutes, she was up a set and a break at 2-1 in the second. She got to break point with a big forehand that forced an errant forehand from Williams, then converted with an inside-out forehand return winner off a 97 mph (157 kph) second serve.When she held in the next game, it was 3-1, and Svitolina was merely three games from a monumental upset.But Williams did not go quietly.Screaming Come on! after some points and Ahhhh! after others, waving her arms either to celebrate or remonstrate herself, she held, then broke, to pull even at 3-all in the second set. And then one of the greatest fighters in her -- or any other -- sport simply faded down the stretch.Oddly so, too, with that five-double-fault game; she finished with eight. At one point in the game that ended with her getting broken to trail 4-3, Williams leaned forward and tapped her racket twice against the court. She did, however, refrain from smashing it the way she had a night earlier, cracking the equipment against her sideline chair during a ragged first set.On Monday, Williams managed to turn things around, as she so often does. This time, though, she never could.---Follow Howard Fendrich on Twitter at http://twitter.com/HowardFendrich Jerseys NFL CheapCheap NFL T-shirtsCheap NFL Black JerseysCheap NFL Jerseys WholesaleJerseys From ChinaDiscount JerseysCheap Jerseys Wholesale ' ' '
