Emma Navarro has established herself as one of the most prominent young American players in professional tennis, with her performances at Grand Slam tournaments attracting attention well beyond the court. Behind her progression is a family that has supported her ambitions from an early age, particularly her parents, Ben and Kelly Navarro.
Born in New York City in 2001 and raised in Charleston, South Carolina, Emma grew up with three siblings. Her interest in tennis developed at a young age, and by elementary school she was already committing significant time to training. Her early dedication eventually helped her become a highly regarded junior before she continued her education and tennis career at the University of Virginia.
Her father, Ben Navarro, is perhaps the more recognizable name outside tennis. A successful businessman, he founded Sherman Financial Group and later became involved in a wide range of investments through Beemok, his family office. Forbes estimates Navarro’s fortune at approximately $3.2 billion, making him one of the wealthiest figures connected to professional tennis.
Despite his business background, Ben has also had a growing influence on the sport itself. Through Beemok, he has been involved with major tennis events, including the Charleston Open and the Cincinnati Open. His connection to the sport has therefore extended beyond simply being the father of a professional player.
For Emma, however, her father’s influence has often been described in terms of guidance rather than financial backing. She has spoken about the lessons he taught her regarding resilience and maintaining perspective during difficult moments. One of the messages she has carried with her throughout her career is the importance of refusing to give up.
That attitude has become particularly relevant during the demanding stages of her professional career. Tennis frequently requires players to recover from disappointing losses, injuries and difficult stretches of form, and Navarro has demonstrated an ability to remain competitive through those challenges.
Her mother, Kelly Navarro, has generally maintained a quieter public profile. Kelly studied finance at the University of Virginia and spent roughly a decade working in real estate finance before dedicating more time to raising her family. She later became involved with Beemok, where she serves as vice president of strategy and design.
Kelly has nevertheless remained a visible source of support for Emma at major tournaments. Along with Ben, she has been present during important stages of her daughter’s professional journey, offering encouragement as Emma has moved from junior tennis to the global stage.
Emma’s breakthrough at the Grand Slam level came at the 2024 U.S. Open, when she reached the semifinals and announced herself as a serious contender. Her performance in New York helped raise her profile considerably and demonstrated that she could compete with the world’s best players.
Her 2026 campaign has provided another opportunity to build on that success. Navarro advanced to the U.S. Open quarterfinals after defeating Anna Kalinskaya, setting up an all-American meeting with Jessica Pegula.
Although her family background has generated considerable interest, Navarro’s career is increasingly defined by her own achievements. Her development involved years of training and collegiate competition before she made the transition to the professional circuit.
Ben and Kelly’s support remains an important part of that story. From Emma’s earliest days on the tennis court to her appearances at the biggest tournaments in the sport, both parents have been closely connected to her journey.
As Navarro continues competing at the highest level, the spotlight is likely to remain on her performances rather than her family’s wealth. Her growing reputation is being built through results, determination and an increasingly established presence among the leading players in women’s tennis.

Jessica Pegula has once again reached the final four at the U.S. Open, earning another opportunity to challenge world No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka on the sport’s biggest stage in New York.
The American third seed booked her semifinal place after overcoming fellow American Emma Navarro in the quarterfinals. Her reward is a meeting with defending champion Sabalenka, creating another chapter in a rivalry that has become increasingly familiar at Grand Slam level.
Pegula has been building momentum throughout this year’s tournament. Her run included a difficult encounter with Leylah Fernandez in the third round, when she recovered after losing the opening set to eventually win 1-6, 6-4, 6-3. She followed that comeback with a more controlled victory over Sorana Cirstea to move into the quarterfinals.
The 32-year-old American arrived in New York with considerable experience of deep runs at the tournament. She was the runner-up at the 2024 U.S. Open and has established herself as one of the most consistent players on the WTA Tour. Her latest appearance in the semifinals gives her another chance to turn that consistency into a first Grand Slam singles title.
Standing between Pegula and another U.S. Open final is an opponent she knows particularly well.
Sabalenka secured her semifinal berth earlier after surviving a major test against Wimbledon champion Linda Noskova. The Belarusian prevailed 7-6(1), 3-6, 7-6(10-7) in a contest that lasted more than two hours. Noskova pushed the defending champion to the limit, but Sabalenka remained composed when the match reached its decisive stages.
The victory was especially important for Sabalenka because she is attempting to win the U.S. Open for a third consecutive year. Reaching the semifinals for a sixth straight appearance at Flushing Meadows underlines her remarkable consistency at the tournament.
Pegula and Sabalenka have already developed a significant history against each other. Their meetings have featured contrasting styles, with Pegula relying heavily on consistency, accuracy and court positioning while Sabalenka brings enormous power from both sides of the court.
Their Grand Slam rivalry has also produced memorable encounters in New York. Sabalenka defeated Pegula in the 2025 U.S. Open semifinals after dropping the opening set, eventually recovering to win 4-6, 6-3, 6-4.
Their rivalry has not been one-sided outside the U.S. Open, however. Earlier in 2026, Pegula defeated Sabalenka in a dramatic semifinal at the Berlin tournament, winning 6-4, 6-7(4), 6-0. That result gives the American reason to believe she can again trouble the world No. 1 when they meet in New York.
For Pegula, the upcoming semifinal represents both a challenge and an opportunity. She will need to withstand Sabalenka’s aggressive baseline game while maintaining the patient approach that has helped her reach another deep Grand Slam run.
Sabalenka, meanwhile, will enter the contest with a larger goal in mind: extending her reign at Flushing Meadows and moving one victory closer to a historic third consecutive championship.
With Pegula seeking another U.S. Open final and Sabalenka defending her title, their latest encounter carries plenty of history and significance. The American will be hoping that her recent success against the top seed can translate into another breakthrough on the New York stage.

Sir Tom Jones has addressed his unexpected departure from The Voice UK, revealing that he was told financial difficulties linked to insurance were behind ITV’s decision to remove him from the show’s coaching lineup.
The Welsh music icon, 86, had been one of the most recognizable faces of the ITV singing competition since its launch in 2012. His departure means viewers will no longer see him occupy his familiar red chair as a regular coach when the programme returns for its next series.
Jones has made it clear that leaving the programme was not his choice. According to the veteran performer, ITV informed him that financial considerations were involved in the decision. He said the explanation he received related specifically to insurance costs, although ITV has also presented the upcoming changes as part of a broader effort to refresh the format and its coaching panel.
The singer discussed the situation publicly after reports about his exit began circulating. Jones said he had enjoyed his time on The Voice UK and would have been happy to continue working on the programme.
He also revealed that he was offered the possibility of returning in a reduced capacity. Under the proposal, Jones would not have remained a full-time coach throughout the competition but could potentially have appeared on the programme at a later stage.
The arrangement did not appear to appeal to him. After spending years as a central figure on the show, Jones evidently viewed a limited appearance as very different from the coaching role he had previously held.
His exit is part of a wider transformation planned for The Voice UK. The programme is preparing to introduce changes to its coaching panel, with Cheryl reportedly returning to television talent-show judging and rapper Aitch expected to join the lineup. Will.i.am and Kelly Rowland are also expected to continue their involvement, although the complete panel has not been formally confirmed by ITV.
Jones’ long association with the competition makes his departure particularly significant. He joined the original lineup when The Voice UK debuted and quickly became one of its defining personalities. Although he was absent for one series, he subsequently returned and remained connected with the show for many years.
His time on the programme also allowed him to mentor numerous aspiring singers, giving contestants the benefit of his decades of experience in the music industry. His straightforward judging style and distinctive sense of humour made him a popular figure among viewers.
Following news of his departure, fans expressed disappointment across social media. Fellow former coach Olly Murs was also among those offering support to Jones, praising the singer and recognizing his importance to the programme.
ITV has attempted to reassure viewers that its relationship with Jones has not necessarily ended completely. The broadcaster has acknowledged his contribution and said discussions are continuing with Jones and his representatives about whether he could have some involvement in the new series.
However, Jones’ comments have added a different perspective to the situation. While ITV describes the changes as part of the show’s evolution, the singer’s account suggests that financial considerations played a significant role in determining his future on the programme.
The next series will therefore begin without one of the show’s longest-serving coaches in his traditional role. The new lineup will face the challenge of maintaining the show’s appeal while introducing a different dynamic to the coaching panel.
For Jones, the end of his regular role closes a major chapter in his television career. Despite the circumstances surrounding his departure, his years on The Voice UK have cemented his place in the history of the programme.
Whether viewers will eventually see him make a guest appearance remains to be seen. For now, Jones has made his position clear: he did not choose to leave, and he remains disappointed that his long-running role on The Voice UK has come to an end.
Vicky McClure was among the biggest winners at the 2026 National Television Awards, taking home the Drama Performance award for her portrayal of Lana Washington in ITV’s Trigger Point.
The ceremony was held at London’s O2 Arena on Tuesday, September 8, with Joel Dommett once again serving as host. The event brought together some of Britain’s best-known television stars, while audiences determined the winners through the public vote.
McClure faced strong competition in the Drama Performance category, which featured an entirely female shortlist. Her fellow nominees included Sheridan Smith for I Fought the Law, Ruth Jones for Run Away, Judy Parfitt for Call the Midwife and Ella Bruccoleri for The Other Bennet Sister.
The victory represented McClure’s first National Television Award and added another major achievement to her career. Her performance in Trigger Point, where she plays bomb disposal officer Lana Washington, has helped establish the drama as one of ITV’s prominent returning series.
While McClure secured the individual acting honour, I Fought the Law also left the ceremony with a major prize. The ITV production was named New Drama of the Year after attracting considerable attention for its portrayal of campaigner Ann Ming, played by Sheridan Smith.
Smith was unable to turn her nomination into an individual victory, but the programme’s award nevertheless provided a significant moment for its cast and production team.
Another established television favourite, Call the Midwife, also secured a notable victory. The long-running BBC drama won the Returning Drama award, beating competition from Blue Lights, Bridgerton, Stranger Things and Trigger Point.
The soap world was represented strongly during the ceremony as well. Emmerdale won the Serial Drama award, while Jeff Hordley was recognised with the Serial Drama Performance prize for his portrayal of Cain Dingle. The pair of victories marked a successful evening for the long-running ITV soap and its cast.
Sir David Attenborough was another prominent name to receive recognition. The veteran broadcaster won the TV Presenter award, adding another accolade to a television career spanning decades.
Several popular entertainment and reality programmes also featured among the winners. Strictly Come Dancing was named the year’s top Talent Show, while The Celebrity Traitors claimed the Reality Competition award. Clarkson’s Farm was honoured in the Reality Docuseries category, and Gogglebox took the Factual Entertainment prize.
The quiz-show category went to The 1% Club, while This Morning received the Daytime award. Comedy was represented by Mrs Brown’s Boys, which took home the Comedy prize, and Michael McIntyre’s Big Show, which won the Bruce Forsyth Entertainment Award.
Alan Carr was also honoured during the evening with the Special Recognition Award. The accolade celebrated his contribution to British television and his long-running career as a presenter, comedian and entertainment personality.
One of the ceremony’s more poignant victories came in the Authored Documentary category. Our Girls: The Southport Families won the award after documenting the experiences of families affected by the Southport tragedy and the aftermath that followed.
The 2026 National Television Awards therefore provided a combination of established favourites, returning programmes and newer television successes. McClure’s acting victory stood out as one of the night’s major moments, while programmes including I Fought the Law, Call the Midwife, Emmerdale and The Celebrity Traitors also secured important public recognition.
With viewers deciding the winners, the ceremony once again highlighted the programmes, performers and presenters that made the strongest impression on British television audiences over the past year.

José Mourinho has offered strong support to Vinícius Júnior after the Real Madrid forward was subjected to whistles from sections of the Santiago Bernabéu crowd during the club’s Champions League meeting with Inter Milan.
Real Madrid opened their European campaign with a 2-1 victory over Inter, but the Brazilian attacker endured a frustrating evening. Vinícius worked hard throughout the contest but was unable to make the decisive attacking impact expected of him. When he was taken off late in the match, some supporters responded with jeers.
Mourinho appeared keen to make his feelings known. As Vinícius walked toward the bench, the Portuguese coach applauded him and embraced the forward, offering a visible show of encouragement at a difficult moment.
Speaking after the match, Mourinho admitted that Vinícius is currently not operating at the level supporters have become accustomed to seeing. However, he stressed that the player’s overall contribution should not be overlooked simply because he is struggling to produce his best attacking form.
The winger’s defensive work was one of the more positive aspects of his performance. Vinícius reportedly made nine recoveries during the match, demonstrating his willingness to contribute when Real Madrid were under pressure. His involvement therefore extended beyond his traditional role as an attacking threat.
Mourinho’s comments came after a match in which Real Madrid themselves were far from dominant. Inter enjoyed extended spells of possession and created several opportunities, forcing goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois into important interventions. Despite those difficulties, Madrid managed to secure all three points.
Kylian Mbappé and Federico Valverde found the net for the Spanish side, while Carlos Augusto scored for Inter. Madrid’s goals came after defensive mistakes from the visitors, and the Italian side pushed strongly during the final stages in search of an equalizer.
Courtois ultimately helped Real Madrid preserve their narrow advantage, making several key saves as the game approached its conclusion. The result gave Madrid a winning start to their Champions League campaign, although the performance left plenty for the team to improve.
For Vinícius, meanwhile, the reception at the Bernabéu highlights the enormous expectations placed on Madrid’s leading players. Having become one of the club’s most important attacking figures, the Brazilian is expected to deliver consistently, particularly on major European nights.
The whistles demonstrate how quickly frustration can emerge when those expectations are not met. Mourinho, however, appears to believe that criticism should be balanced against the effort a player puts into the match.
His public backing could also be important for Vinícius’ confidence. Rather than allowing one difficult performance to define the forward’s contribution, Mourinho emphasized his work rate and commitment to the team.
Real Madrid will now look to build on their opening European victory while seeking greater consistency in their performances. Vinícius will be expected to rediscover his sharpness as the season progresses, with Madrid likely to rely heavily on his pace, creativity and ability to change matches.
For Mourinho, the situation is straightforward: Vinícius might not currently be producing his best football, but his willingness to fight for the team remains worthy of recognition. The support from the experienced coach could provide the forward with the encouragement needed to respond on the pitch.
