Max Homa has one of the most charming personalities on the PGA Tour.
He is quick-witted too.

Let’s rank the top free agents in the NBA.
Young NBA superstars don’t hit free agency like they used to, but championships can still be won or lost with signings in the offseason. This summer’s free agent crop is headlined by several big-name veterans expected to hit the open market, and includes plenty intriguing talents available at a variety of price points.
When we did this list a year ago, Jalen Brunson was ranked No. 7, Nicolas Claxton was No. 21, Kevon Looney was No. 30, Malik Monk was No. 32, and Caleb Martin was ranked No. 37.
Last Thursday, as SEC officials readied to make a grand announcement on their football scheduling format, another news item, this one much more important, filtered through the labyrinth of conference rooms from the league’s meetings in Florida.
Minutes before commissioner Greg Sankey took to the podium to announce the conference’s plan to remain at eight conference games for the 2024 football season, the California State Assembly passed a bill that would require its NCAA Division I schools—there are 26 of them—to share revenue with athletes.
Jimmy Butler can shoulder his team to the NBA Finals. Once he gets there, the eccentric Butler relishes the moment.
Butler showed off his signature sense of humor on Tuesday during a Finals presser.
As Miami big man Bam Adebayo talked to the press, Butler stood to the side and flashed his bum at Adebayo.
It was a different side for Adebayo and online audiences to see from a man with plenty of character.
Butler manages to blend strange and fearless during basketball’s greatest series. Butler must surely be feeling good about the Heat’s odds on Wednesday against the Denver Nuggets.

What can we expect from RB Jonathan Taylor this season? Expect a healthy Taylor to contribute about 1,500 rushing yards and double-digit touchdowns.
Welcome to 32 teams in 32 days. To get us through the offseason, we’ll be taking a closer look at every team in the league, in order of projected 2023 win totals. Up next: the Colts.
After a dreadful 4–12 season, the Colts finally realized that a temporary veteran quarterback in need of a fresh start wasn’t the answer to building a winning operation.
Indianapolis had some success as a wild-card team with Philip Rivers in 2020, before missing the postseason in back-to-back seasons with Carson Wentz and Matt Ryan as the starting quarterbacks.
Following the stunning announcement of the merger between the PGA Tour and LIV Golf, Jay Monahan was lambasted and immediately labeled a hypocrite. It wasn’t just golf fans on social media calling out the PGA Tour commissioner, however, plenty of Tour players during Tuesday’s players-only meeting fiercely criticized Monahan as well.
Remember when Zach Wilson, Trey Lance and Mac Jones were all believed to be worthy of top-five selections? Good times. This was the age of the 2021 NFL draft, where the debate raged after Trevor Lawrence went first to the Jaguars.
Of course, with hindsight, the Jets’ No. 2 pick should have been easy. Grab the phone, call the league and scream the name Micah Parsons. Luckily for the Cowboys, that isn’t what happened.
So how would the 2021 draft go if the teams could do it again, knowing what they know now? We took a run at it, combining the best player available with needs.
As it is written, Wednesday is mailbag day …
Hope your report card reflects the following: D for Bouzková & Sorribes Tormo for unsportsmanlike conduct, C- for crowd booing Kasatkina despite thumbs up exchange with Svitolina, C for no free subscription required television coverage for US audiences of Sloane Stephens–Sabalenka match.
AK, Baltimore
• It would be gentlemanly to grade so low. Helicoptering parents might respond angrily.
But your points are well taken.

CBS Miami’s Samantha Rivera is the best for this one
The world of television journalism is a treacherous beast. You spend your entire college career getting really good at being able to not only talk in front of a camera, but do it in such a manner that people want YOU delivering their news, rain or shine.
However, the struggle of delivering the news gets compounded in sports, because you gotta deal with fans leaving the stadium who might have had a few too many drinks, or just want to be rowdy in general.
