One of the best stories of the PGA Championship is undoubtedly Michael Block. The PGA professional is not a member of the PGA Tour. He teaches golf professionally. But he probably never expected to be playing with Rory McIlroy on Sunday of a major championship.
He didn’t even expect it Saturday. OutKick’s Grayson Weir wrote about Block’s incredible reaction when a reporter told him Saturday that he’d be playing with McIlroy.
Ready to have a day.

If there were any plot twists remaining in a wild season in the Premier League, Matchweek 37 left very little for the grand finale.
The only screen-switching on the final day next Sunday will involve the relegation race. That’s because Arsenal’s stunning loss decided the Premier League title Saturday, handing Manchester City its fifth title in six seasons. Meanwhile, the race for Europe was practically resolved with the weekend results. As far as the relegation race goes, well, that’s a bit more complicated.
The good news is this: By this time next week, all shall be revealed.

The PGA Professional has been the talk of the tournament and the fans are in full support heading into the final round of the PGA Championship.
Entering the final round of the 2023 PGA Championship, there are storylines aplenty with big names all over the leaderboard. However, Michael Block, the 46-year-old PGA Club Pro from Southern California might have stolen the show.
After being introduced on the first tee box Sunday, Block received the loudest ovation of the entire tournament.
NASCAR fans, by and large, do not like Bubba Wallace. He’s considered a dirty driver who creates wrecks and often fights with other drivers. Plus, any time someone calls him out, he plays the race card.
We don’t need to revisit the entire race hoax from 2020. But, essentially, Wallace claims he found a noose in his garage. The FBI proved that was another hoax, since the rope was just that … a rope. And one commonly found in racing garages.
Because of all the issues that Wallace creates, fans often let him know how they feel about him. And, it’s not positive.

LeBron James and the Celtics have taken part in some legendary postseason battles over the years. That included a five-year stretch when James opposed the Celtics four times in the playoffs, twice with Cleveland and twice with Miami.
After Boston bested James while the forward was with Cleveland in 2008 and ’10, James got his revenge in 2011 and ’12 by beating the Celtics as a member of the Heat. However, one former Celtic believes believes Boston should have a series win over James’s Heat.
Mark Hubbard hasn’t had the best week in Rochester, N.Y. He made the cut at the PGA Championship, so he had a better week than many. But the wheels fells off for him Saturday, shooting a nine-over 79.
He made the cut right on the line, so Saturday’s disaster dropped him to +14 for the tournament, and put him in dead-last place entering Sunday.
But, not wanting to let the poor showing dampen his spirits, Hubbard had some fun during Sunday’s relatively meaningless round.
Dan McDonnell has been the head baseball coach at the University of Louisville since the start of the 2007 season. What he has done since is a testament to his ability to win.

Under McDonnell’s guidance, the Cardinals have won 702 games with just 289 losses. They have reached the College World Series five times and have not made a Regional in just one non-COVID year.
Needless to say, McDonnell has had a lot of success in The ‘Ville.

“I have to apologize to the Denver Nuggets, they proved that they are a better and more talented team in their victory over the Lakers tonight,” Johnson tweeted.

Jordan Spieth has been one of the most entertaining players for almost a decade.
