Notes
beat (…を)たたき出す、撃退する；
bronze medal 銅メダル；
Samoa サモア(諸島)
—————————
This weekend, it didn’t matter which sport you liked. There was something for everyone. The Rugby World Cup had 5 matches, and on Saturday Japan got its third win by beating Samoa 38-19. Japanese baseball fans could watch the beginning of the Climax Series between the number 2 and number 3 teams of each league. Golf fans had their choice of a ladies’ tournament or a men’s tournament, both in central Japan. In tennis, Osaka Naomi won the China Open. In the World Athletics Championship, the Japanese men’s team got the bronze medal for the 4×100 meter relay. And I haven’t mentioned soccer! (by Prof. Douglas Jarrell)
