There's nothing sweeter than holding the title of ABC's first-ever DWTS champion! Since winning the mirrorball, Monaco continued to portray the role of Samantha McCall on the network's daytime drama, General Hospital. Monaco made her most recent return to the show during season 25, pairing up with her close pal, Cheryl Burke, and former NFL star Terrell Owens for Trio Night.

The 98 Degrees singer had so much fun learning how to dance on the show, that he joined the pros and troupe dancers on their DWTS tour after winning the title. At the time, he had no idea that his brother, Nick Lachey, would later compete on season 25 of the show with Peta Murgatroyd. Unfortunately for Nick, he didn't have as much luck -- he and Peta were the fifth couple to be eliminated from the competition.

Tennis superstar Rafael Nadal defeated Grigor Dimitrov on Friday in Melbourne to advance to the final of the Australian Open — his first major final since the 2014 French Open.
The athlete beat out his opponent 6-3, 5-7, 7-6(5), 6-7(3), 6-4, and will now take on old rival (and pal) Roger Federer.
“It’s difficult to describe the emotions,” Nadal said in his post-match interview on the court. “Grigor was playing unbelievable. It was a great match … The crowd was just amazing. Many, many thanks for that huge support. To qualify for the final like this means a lot to me. I...

Love is in the air...just not for French Montana and Nicole Scherzinger. The rapper and former Pussycat Dolls member were spotted at the same New Year's Eve party at Tao Las Vegas, and almost immediately did rumors begin to swirl about the two possibly taking their friendship to the next level. But a rep for Scherzinger says none of the rumors is true. "These claims are absurd," the rep told MailOnline. "They have known each other for years and are friends." Scherzinger has been dating tennis player Grigor Dimitrov since July 2015, while Montana most recently has been linked to Iggy Azalea. Scherzinger and Dimitrov were spotted packing on the Pda in Italy in September 2016, where they...

Nicole Scherzinger is no longer in contact with Lewis Hamilton, but that doesn't mean the exes are at odds. The former couple ended their eight-year, on-and-off relationship in 2015, and Scherzinger, 38, rebounded with dating tennis player Grigor Dimitrov, 25, in July 2016. Lewis, meanwhile, has been linked to a number of models since calling it off with the "Poison" singer. In Saturday's episode of ITV's The Jonathan Ross Show, Scherzinger explains why it's for the best that she keeps her distance from the Formula 1 racer, 31. "I don't see anything negative; I think it's quite natural when people separate and go their own ways. You just have to be adult about it and just always wish the...

Roger Federer, an Olympic gold medalist and arguably the greatest tennis player of all time (or No. 2, according to the official Association of Tennis Professionals ranking), got schooled by a child.
And you can watch it happen here:
News: Here’s the cover of the 2015 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue!
It went down during an exhibition (i.e. just for fun) match Federer played against Bulgaria’s Grigor Dimitrov during the BNP Paribas Showdown at Madison Square Garden, after a 12-year-old challenged Federer from the crowd:
Federer was game and probably expected to mop the court with this kid:
But clearly the kid plays. The match seemed fairly even -- if you ignore the fact that Federer could have probably wailed the ball back at the tween at 100mph, but where would the fun be in that? -- until Federer rushed the net:
Perfectly setting this kid up for a killer lob:
Boom. And in jeans...

The 2014 Espy Awards went down at the Nokia Theater in La on Wednesday and brought out a stellar mix of actors, musicians, and of course, athletes. Celebrity sports fans like Jessica Alba, Dwayne Johnson, and Jim Parsons all showed their spirit at the event, and the show's host, Drake, displayed his acting chops and comedic timing in multiple skits and musical numbers throughout the ceremony. Chrissy Teigen was all smiles while meeting up with her close friend Erin Andrews; Iggy Azalea stepped out to support her NBA-player boyfriend, Nick Young; and team USA's Clint Dempsey, fresh from the World Cup, stuck close to his wife, Bethany. Michael Sam - who took home the Arthur Ashe Courage Award - had boyfriend Vito Cammisano by his side, and tennis star Maria Sharapova sported a black minidress and fresh tan from her recent Mexican getaway with boyfriend Grigor Dimitrov, who was also in attendance.

It’s also time for our annual “Hot Guys of Tennis” post. In the past we’ve looked at the hottest players over 30, and counted down the top 20 ranked players, but this year we’re going to put all our balls on the court, and bring you the definitive Forty Hottest Tennis Players Of All Time!
There are two caveats – These are players from the Open Era of Tennis (sorry, Don Budge fans), and all of the players must have achieved a ranking of at least #25 on the Atp Tour. There have to be rules!
Three names you will not be seeing on this list are Andre Agassi, Janko Tipsarevic and Goran Ivanišević. Why? They’ve all made public homophobic comments,...

Maria Sharapova is clearly not letting her recent feud with Serena Williams get her down. The Russian tennis star was all smiles as she strolled hand in hand with boyfriend Grigor Dimitrov in London. Of course, it probably didn't hurt that the gal had also advanced to the second round at Wimbledon following her victory over Kristina Mladenovic on Monday, either. Of course, there wasn't much to smile about over the weekend when Sharapova found herself fighting back at comments made by Williams in a recent Rolling Stone interview. "Obviously I have a tremendous amount of respect for Serena and what she's achieved on the court," Sharapova said during a pre-tournament press...

Serena Williams' Rolling Stone interview has landed her in hot water once again, but this time it's because of her comments about Maria Sharapova. Williams originally criticized the blond tennis star and her boyfriend, Grigor Dimitrov, which left a bad taste in Sharapova's mouth. During a pretournament press conference on Saturday, the tennis star went on the defense and fought back at Williams' comments. "Obviously I have a tremendous amount of respect for Serena and what she's achieved on the court; if she wants to talk about something personal, maybe she should talk about her relationship and her boyfriend that was married and is getting a divorce and has kids," she...
