The golf world has been waiting to hear from Tiger Woods ever since the blockbuster news involving the PGA Tour and the Saudi’s PIF merger.
The entire golf world has been waiting in anticipation for Tiger Woods to chime in on the blockbuster PGA Tour deal with LIV Golf and the DP World Tour.
It’s taken almost a full month, but the 15-time major winner finally did just that. But in typical Tiger Woods fashion, he posted a cryptic message on Twitter.
For most of Sunday’s game against the Diamondbacks, Angels two-way star Shohei Ohtani looked human. Entering his fourth plate appearance, the three-time All-Star was 0-for-3 with a pair of strikeouts and a routine flyout. Then, MLB’s home run leader showed why he’s become the most feared hitter in the game.
Ohtani unleashed his otherworldly power on a hanging slider from Arizona’s Kyle Nelson, crushing the ball deep into the right field stands for his 31st home run of the season. Statcast measured the blast at 454 feet and with an exit velocity of 115.
Andy Dalton started 14 games last season for the New Orleans Saints. Believing that they needed an upgrade, the team signed Derek Carr in free agency. So, Dalton pursued other opportunities. Ultimately, the Carolina Panthers signed the veteran quarterback.
They did so in March, six weeks before the NFL Draft.
However, Dalton knew the team was planning to use the #1 overall pick — that the Panthers acquired five days prior — on a quarterback.
Perhaps Dalton thought he might be able to start over a rookie. Or, he didn’t have many other suitors.

There’s a different potential Damian Lillard trade suitor that could be a bigger worry than the Miami Heat to the Warriors.
Yankees fans had a lot to say on Sunday after manager Aaron Boone received his fifth ejection of the season for arguing a questionable call early in the club’s eventual 5–1 road loss to the Cardinals.
Boone, who had been suspended four times entering Sunday, got into it with plate umpire Dan Merzel over a 3–1 strike call against DJ LeMahieu in the third inning of a scoreless contest.
Atlanta is the hottest — and best — team in baseball, which is apparently very evident when you look at the full MLB All-Star Game roster.

Justin Thomas was as displeased about the lack of TV coverage for the Rocket Mortgage Classic, but put it aside for Rickie Fowler’s sake.
Sunday’s final round of the Rocket Mortgage Classic got underway much earlier than scheduled. There was inclement weather expected, so tee times were moved up more than four hours.
As Rickie Fowler, along with fellow leaders Adam Hadwin and Collin Morikawa played an exciting final round, none of it aired live on television.
CBS decided to allow for it be streamed online for free.
