There has not, is not, and never will be a reality in which Rory McIlroy plays for LIV Golf. He’s portrayed that message from day one, and he’s made it clear it hasn’t changed, even with the Saudi Arabia Public Investment Fund (PIF) formally proposing he joins the breakaway circuit.
This week’s U.S. Senate Subcommittee hearing about the proposed merger between the PGA Tour and PIF didn’t offer up much as to what the future of professional golf may look like.

The United States will get its first taste of professional cricket on Thursday night with the launch of the inaugural season of Major League Cricket (MLC).

Guenther Steiner and company are looking for answers to this one critical question
Things are never dull in Formula 1.
This was supposed to be a quiet week off, following a back-to-back in Austria and Britain, and ahead of another back-to-back in Hungary and the Netherlands. But a thunderbolt from the clouds came down on Monday, with the shocking news that Daniel Ricciardo was coming back to the grid.
After just ten races, AlphaTauri and Red Bull had seen enough from Nyck de Vries.
Heat legend Dwyane Wade is set to be enshrined in the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame next month in Springfield, Mass. and the three-time NBA champion has made his choice for who will present him at the ceremony.
Allen Iverson, as Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald revealed.
No, not LeBron James or Shaquille O’Neal, his two former All-Star running mates. It will be Iverson instead.
Big 12 Media Days took place in Arlington, Texas on Wednesday and it made for a one-in-a-lifetime photo. Although there may be other opportunities for the picture to occur naturally in the wild again, the exact image will never happen again.
As the Big 12 Conference enters its transitional 2023 year, it will move from 10 teams to 14. Texas A&M and Missouri moved to the SEC in 2012, which left the conference with less members than its billing.
Texas and Oklahoma are leaving for the SEC next season.
Team LeBron vs. Team Durant may be a debate that never finds a happy medium. While the Lakers star is widely viewed as one of the most dominant players in NBA history, Durant backers strongly argue that the Suns star is the best scorer in the league and possibly ever.
Whichever side of the debate you land on, there’s no doubt that both players are in a league of their own. NBA legend and former 76ers star Allen Iverson essentially said as much but highlighted one “difference” between the two players while choosing between them.

Chet Holmgren is finally healthy, and he’s already showing how he can take the Thunder to the next level.
Chet Holmgren couldn’t help himself. The No. 2 overall pick in the 2022 NBA Draft was just months away from starting a highly anticipated rookie season when he showed up to Seattle to play in Jamal Crawford’s pro-am run. Paolo Banchero (the only player picked ahead of Holmgren in the draft) was playing, too. So were LeBron James and Jayson Tatum.
