As everyone in the golf world predicted, Rocket Mortgage Classic week delivered all the drama both on and off the golf course. It’s never a bad week when Tiger Woods and Rickie Fowler are both making headlines.
We had Woods share his first public comments about anything to do with the proposed PGA Tour, DP World Tour, and LIV Golf merger. Fowler snapped his winless streak in Detroit after gutting it out to get into a three-man playoff. Talor Gooch simply continued his winning ways on LIV and may have a case for a U.S. Ryder Cup spot.

Enes Kanter Freedom has no tolerance for Natasha Cloud’s recent antics.
Cloud has been taking fire ever since she declared America a “trash” country, and then decided that digging the hole even deeper was a better idea than simply apologizing.
The Washington Mystics player unleashed several tweets over the weekend accusing her critics of being racist, targeting religion, claiming cops murder people and much more. It was so anti-American it would make Kim Jong Un proud.
For the first time since November, Dan Hooker returns to Octagon this Saturday.
Hooker is looking to build a new winning streak when he matches up against Jalin Turner at UFC 290.
“This fight is an exciting opportunity,” says Hooker. “I’m chomping at the bit to get my hands on him.”
This bout was initially scheduled for UFC 285 in March, but Mateusz Gamrot replaced Hooker after he suffered an injury to his hand.

A picture was posted of new Texas quarterback Arch Manning with three of his fellow quarterbacks, including Quinn Ewers, flexing in the locker room on Monday, and fans instantly turned the photo into a meme.
Fans quickly pointed out the difference between Manning’s and Ewers’s appearances as the two battled for the starting role just a few months ago. Texas coach Steve Sarkisian noted in April after the spring game that Ewers is expected to be the starting quarterback for the 2023 season despite all of the hype surrounding Manning’s arrival.
The Blazers appear to have no shortage of suitors when it comes to a possible Damian Lillard trade, much to the likely dismay of the Heat.
While Miami remains the perceived frontrunner to land Lillard, largely due to his preference to land in South Beach, the latest round of teams to show interest in his services makes for an intriguing mix. As Chris Haynes of Turner Sports reported on the ‘#thisleague UNCUT’ podcast with NBA reporter Marc Stein, four teams (aside from the Heat) already have reached out to Portland in an effort to gauge what it would take to acquire Lillard.
So, I guess I have to learn how to spell Shane Van Gisbergen now? Great. Thanks, NASCAR.
What a rollercoaster we got Sunday in Chicago, and I’m still not completely sure how I feel. From everything I see on social media, people by in large seem to have loved this experiment.
I’ll be honest with you, I was fully prepared to come out today and take a dump on NASCAR for making me watch that. I didn’t hate the Chicago Street Race. I just don’t think it’s for me.
Maybe I’m in the minority, though?
The scenes were incredible. You’ll get no argument from me there.
The draft is done, the regular season is over and it’s time for the 2023 NBA summer league to begin.
It’s International Fight Week in Las Vegas and we’re eyeballing a rematch on the undercard.
