American golfers Jordan Spieth and Justin Thomas have spent a lot of time in England recently — and not just for Wimbledon or in anticipation of the looming British Open.
Spieth and Thomas are set to invest in Leeds United in England’s Championship, joining an American-based ownership group associated with the 49ers.
“We thought it would be a cool opportunity. It’s a big city, historic club, great venue in Elland Road, and once we looked into it we realized it could be really exciting,” Spieth told Sky Sports in England.
Just like every other draft position grouping, there are pros and cons to having a late pick. But selecting from these particular positions — the 10, 11 and 12 slots — can feel especially daunting.
You will miss out on the players who are in the conversation for 1.01, the top overall pick. Justin Jefferson, Ja’Marr Chase and Christian McCaffrey will be long gone. You might even see an Austin Ekeler or a Travis Kelce slide a pick or two and get your hopes up only to see them drafted right before you’re on the clock.
If you had any questions about whether or not the Big 12 would be expanding in the future, Commissioner Brett Yormark says they have a plan.
Now, whether or not the right team presents itself as a viable option is one thing, but the conference could be looking to add more teams once Texas and Oklahoma officially leave. The Big 12 opened its media days on Wednesday with Yormark giving his ‘state of the conference’ speech, where he discussed what the future will look like going forward.
“I feel like I’ve been talking about expansion for a year now.
Major League Baseball’s new pitch clock has generally been considered a rousing success.
Games are significantly shorter, pace of play is inarguably better, with fewer violations than expected.
Despite some hiccups and arguments, the pitch clock has been less of an adjustment than many believed it would be.

But for some players, there’s reportedly concern that it could be much more impactful in the postseason. And those players want MLB to make some changes to the rules ahead of October baseball.

Media days, no matter the conference, have always served as an opportunity for players to show off their style and flex their finest ‘fits.
The PGA travels across the pond for the Genesis Scottish Open ahead of the Open Championship.
Tuesday’s U.S. Senate Subcommittee hearing about the proposed merger between the PGA Tour and the Saudi Arabia Public Investment Fund (PIF) didn’t provide the golf world any clarity. It was an opportunity for politicians to draw opposing lines in the sand about doing business with Saudi Arabia while exposing how poor of shape the PGA Tour appears to be in.
The one overarching takeaway from the hearing – and the hundreds of pages of documents about the proposed deal – is that the players have had absolutely nothing to do with any of it.
A Memphis judge ruled Wednesday that Grizzlies point guard Ja Morant and his legal team can proceed with their argument that the two-time All-Star acted in self-defense when he punched a teenager during a pickup basketball game at his home in July 2022.
Morant’s lawyers have acknowledged that Morant punched Joshua Holloway, who was 17 at the time, once in the chin after Holloway threw a basketball at Morant, arguing that Morant should not be liable under Tennessee’s “stand your ground” law, per the Associated Press.

Former star QB, analyst breaks down state of position in league
