The 3 amigos, Spieth, Fowler and Thomas were taking in some tennis at Wimbledon Sunday but only the former forgot how to iron his clothes.
Jordan Spieth has developed a very tight friendship with fellow PGA Tour players Rickie Fowler and Justin Thomas. On Sunday, the three of them appeared at Wimbledon ahead of fourth round play at the All England Club.
They were, of course, dressed to the nines as they say.
Sunday represented the final day of the 2023 season’s unofficial first half, with the All-Star break ringing in a four-day break for teams throughout the league. Some clubs could use the break more than others, though the off time is not just a respite for players and coaches—it’s also a much-needed bit of breathing room for the umpires who work just as often as anybody else in the game.
The strategy requires 29 other teams to zig so you can zag, and besides, baseball has proven that a single player can’t change a franchise’s fortunes.
Heading into Sunday’s final round at the John Deere Classic, Sepp Straka sat four shots back of leader Brendon Todd at TPC Deere Run.
Not only did Straka trail Todd, but 13 other players had a better score than Straka going into round four.
Oddsmakers did not see Straka as a threat to win the golf tournament on Sunday morning.
Who will it bring it home tomorrow @JDClassic?

And it appeared, for a long time, that Straka was going to prove everyone wrong.
BATON ROUGE, La. – The Major League Baseball Draft will pick up Sunday (7 p.m., ESPN, MLB Network) in Seattle where the College World Series left off last month in Omaha, Nebraska – with LSU all over the place.
Two national champion Tigers could make LSU the first college in MLB Draft history to produce the first two selections of the first round after leading their team to the College World Series title. That would be right-handed pitcher Paul Skenes to Pittsburgh and center fielder Dylan Crews to Washington, or the other way around.
Ask baseball fans what they remember about Hall of Fame third baseman Wade Boggs, and most will point to his stints with the Red Sox and the Yankees—where he hit well north of .300 and earned his ticket to Cooperstown.
Ask Floridians what they remember about him, however, and many will recall how he made the then-Devil Rays relevant in their infancy.
It was with Tampa Bay that Boggs homered for his 3,000th career hit on Aug. 7, 1999, during the franchise’s second season.

Cam Smith took home the trophy at LIV Golf London, but his trolling of Kevin Na made his victory better.
Australian golfer Cam Smith won the LIV Golf London event by beating Patrick Reed and fellow teammate Marc Leishman by one stroke. He shot a 15-under through 54 holes. While his victory was impressive, more people paid attention to what he did early on Sunday.
Kevin Na had yanked a tee shot embarrassingly wide left Saturday. He immediately was disgusted with the swing and let his club fly behind him, nearly hitting Smith in the process.

It’s been less than a year since Javonte Williams tore his ACL, but he says he’s going to be ready to go at the start of the 2023 season.
“I mean, that’s the plan. I feel like I’m ready to go,” Williams told ESPN on Sunday when asked if he would be medically cleared for training camp.
Williams tore both his ACL and LCL in his right knee during a Week 4 matchup with the Raiders on Oct. 2. He tallied 204 yards on 47 rush attempts to start the year until the injury. The 23-year-old was selected in the second round of the 2021 NFL draft and rushed for 903 yards as a rookie.
