  "account": "Trinity Rodman, a forward for the Washington Spirit, managed to attend both her team's 3-0 loss to the Boston Legacy at Audi Field in Washington D.C., and her boyfriend Ben Shelton's US Open final loss at Arthur Ashe Stadium in New York City. Despite the two events occurring within hours of each other and over 200 miles apart, Rodman made the trip in between the two matches. After the Spirit's game, Shelton lost to Alexander Zverev in straight sets, while Rodman was seen visibly emotional at her boyfriend's post-match interview. Zverev even complimented Rodman as her \"lucky charm.\" The two have been dating since March 2025, and Rodman has been supportive of Shelton throughout his career, attending multiple Spirit games during his busy tennis tour.",
  "summary": "Whether by magic or teleportation (or, more likely, private plane), the USWNT forward pulled off a tight turnaround to make it back to New York.",
