Badge of the Week: Maybe I’m A-Maze

Badge of the Week: Maybe I’m A-Maze

Asking questions

We’re working hard on getting a Paul McCartney-style tribute to this week’s badge.

There’s one date-specific badge to earn this week:

Death and Taxes: Tomorrow is Tax Day in the United States – and for the adults who put things off, it’s quite stressful! If you’ve got the time, we’ve got two quizzes for you to play in order to relieve some stress. Play Causes of Death and Taxing Countries on Tax Day (US) (April 15th, 2026).

And here’s a random badge from the vault:

As always, check the badge page for the latest updates.

Italy to host grasscourt ATP event prior to Wimbledon from 2028 <div id="content-body-70862669" itemprop="articleBody"><p>The ATP Finals. The Davis Cup Finals.

The federation is also hosting the ATP Finals, currently in Turin, through 2030 and the Davis Cup Finals in Bologna through next year.</p><p>Meanwhile, the federation is preparing to host the Italian Open next month.</p><p>After Sinner beat Carlos Alcaraz in the Monte Carlo Masters final on Sunday, organisers are optimistic that he could become the first Italian man to claim the singles title at the Foro Italico since Adriano Panatta 50 years ago.</p><p>“We’ve got to try and win the men’s singles. The time is right,” Binaghi said at the tournament presentation, noting that Italy has three other players ranked in the top 25: No. 9 Lorenzo Musetti, No. 16 Flavio Cobolli and No. 21 Luciano Darderi.</p><p>Alcaraz beat Sinner in last year’s Rome final in Sinner’s first tournament back from a three-month doping ban; while Jasmine Paolini earned Italy the titles in both women’s singles and doubles (with partner Sara Errani).</p><p>Work on a retractable roof for Campo Centrale is slated to start immediately after this year’s Italian Open and be ready for the 2028 edition.</p><p>Capacity for the revised stadium will increase from 10,500 to 12,400 for tennis; and more for other sports such as basketball.</p><p>Binaghi also said he still hopes to make the Italian Open a fifth Grand Slam to join the Australian Open, the French Open, Wimbledon and the U.S. Open as the sport’s biggest tournaments.</p><p>Binaghi first raised the idea last year — which would upend a century of tennis history. His federation is interested in acquiring the license for the Madrid Open, which immediately precedes Rome in the tennis calendar. The idea is that by eliminating Madrid and making Rome bigger, it could constitute a fifth Slam.</p><p>“I think about it every day,” Binaghi said. “There’s only a brief window when we can achieve this. … Italy would benefit from it for 100 years. It’s our dream.”</p><p class="publish-time" id="end-of-article">Published on Apr 15, 2026</p></div><script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script> #Italy #host #grasscourt #ATP #event #prior #Wimbledon
