Maverick McNealy became the newest PGA Tour winner on Sunday after making birdie on his 72nd hole to earn a one-shot victory at the RSM Classic. The entire McNealy crew was certainly thrilled to see the 29-year-old find the winner’s circle for the first time in what was his 142nd start on Tour, but as he alluded to, nobody may be more thrilled about the win more so than his grandmother.
Speaking with reporters after earning the win, McNealy explained that he has had a standing deal with his Grandma Marm since he turned professional years ago.

Why it’s okay to be bullish on Bryce Young and the Panthers .
The Panthers aren’t a good football team, but they’re far from a terrible one. Showing far more fight than a majority of three-win teams, Carolina gave a significant scare to the Chiefs on Sunday.

The Cornhuskers smashed the Badgers over the weekend 44-25, and it’s just the latest frustrating moment of the season for Luke Fickell’s program.

Just when you thought the Trump Dance — an ode to the President-elect’s rally dances that athletes have turned into celebration jigs – had played itself out we have the latest version of it from the Miami Dolphins.
