Rory McIlroy is coming off a tough pill to swallow at the U.S. Open, but appears to have put it behind him at the Travelers Championship.
Rory McIlroy enters the Travelers Championship in Connecticut as one of the favorites. That’s despite knowing how difficult it must be to get over the loss at the 2023 U.S. Open last week.
Clearly, the four-time major champion was able to move on and focus on the task at hand. During Thursday’s round at the Travelers, he posted a beautiful ace, sinking a hole in one on the 214-yard par-3 8th.

Bo Jackson had an iconic moment or two throughout his incredible playing days. The dual-sport athlete was a dynamic NFL running back and MLB outfielder and in his days of retirement he has quite the sense of humor about it all.
The 60-year-old was on Twitter when he saw an account post a video of the iconic moment when Jackson snapped a bat in two while playing for the Royals. Apparently, Wednesday marked the 34th anniversary of the moment and Jackson had some fun reminiscing.
“I wouldn’t allow that bat to betray anyone else ever again,” Jackson wrote in the tweet.
Days after being traded from Phoenix to Washington, the veteran All-Star is reportedly being sent to Golden State for Jordan Poole and draft picks.

The only two teams to hold the No. 1 ranking this year in college baseball are going to give it their all Thursday to see who advances to the MCWS championship series.
The Pittsburgh Pirates became the latest Major League Baseball team to unveil their “city connect” alternate uniforms.
And they are, well, not great. Just like so many other Nike-derived city connect jerseys.
The Pirates uniform set at least has some connection to historic colors used by the organization. Predominantly in jerseys from the 1970’s, Willie Stargell era.
But instead of simply referencing that color scheme, Nike decided to shorten Pittsburgh to “PGH” and add a weird design to the top part of the jersey.
We work hard.We don’t complain.We innovate.
