Olympic Hopeful Wants to Help Young Women Fund Their Big Dreams
While you were out partying this past weekend, World Cup Ski Jumper Abby Ringquist was competing in the US Olympic team trials for Nordic Ski Jumping.
After placing second in the competition, she joins Cheddar to tell us how she's helping other young women fund their big dreams.
Ringquist worked three jobs to self-fund her travel and expenses to compete on the World Cup and Olympic levels. She is paying it forward by teaming up with non-profit 1,000 Dreams Fund ("1DF") to become the face of their new national fundraising campaign, #FundGirlsOntheRise.
The U.S. Open isn't just about the tennis - it has also become a scene for foodies. Chef Melba Wilson, who will be among the top experts serving up delicious bites for more than 700,000 fans, walks us through how to make her special spring rolls.
University athletic departments and collegiate sports conferences are paying millions of dollars for bet-tracking services to make sure that student-athletes, coaches and staff aren't gambling in violation of school and NCAA rules and state laws.
