With F1 having canceled the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix, Yuki Tsunoda is lending a hand in Faenza
Due to flooding and weather concerns, Formula 1 canceled this weekend’s Emilia Romagna Grand Prix.

The NBA is a business, not the government, and it has plenty of interests to protect from Ja Morant’s lack of sound judgment.

Damian Lillard has had enough of trade discussions regarding his future in Portland.
Lillard, frequently in trade rumors over the years, has popped back into discussions after the Trail Blazers landed the No. 3 pick in next month’s NBA Draft. Portland moving up into the top three after missing the playoffs in each of the past two seasons has some Blazers fans wondering if it’s time to start a full-scale rebuild. With that would likely come a Lillard trade and a full-blown youth movement.

To take a divot or to not take a divot, that is the viral question between Scottie Scheffler and Tiger Woods.
Scottie Scheffler continues to show how relatable he is despite playing mind-boggling golf. In a viral video from TaylorMade, he and Tiger Woods discuss divots. The topic seems simple enough, but throughout the video, Scheffler’s reactions say everything.
As the kids’ say, he is a vibe. Most people take divots when they’re hitting iron shots, but when the Big Cat is flushing it, he doesn’t.

Joe LaCava and his son, Joseph, both caddied last week in two separate majors with the latter helping Steve Stricker win again.
Is there a better father-son caddy duo than Joe LaCava and his son Joesph? Two separate tours saw the LaCava clan helping players, officially making them one of the most dynamic duos in all of golf. Last weekend, the elder was on the bag for Nelly Korda in the LPGA while his son carried for Steve Stricker.

Who knew a Northern Irishman would be a Buffalo Bills and Josh Allen fan, but then again Rory McIlroy never ceases to amaze.
American sports have rubbed off on two-time Wanamaker Trophy winner Rory McIlroy as he unveiled his favorite NFL team and quarterback on Tuesday at the PGA Championship in Rochester, NY.
The Northern Irishman was asked about the Rochester area, and McIlroy thankfully picked the right NFL team. In his interview, he commented, “It certainly makes it easier to root for the Buffalo Bills when Josh Allen is throwing the ball.

Amna Al Qubaisi is changing the narrative. Representing MP Motorsport, Al Qubaisi is competing in the inaugural season of F1 Academy, the new, all-female racing series that officially launched last month. The 23-year-old—who was born in Washington, Va.—is the first Emirati female racing driver to compete in a championship.
This season, Amna and her younger sister, Hamda, 20, who is competing on the same F1 Academy team, have already seen success—Amna placed second in Spielberg in late April, and Hamda finished first in Valencia earlier this month.

LIV Golf signing a broadcasting deal with the CW Network prior to the start of its second season earlier this year seemed like a step in the right direction. The Saudi-backed circuit was so pleased with the new TV deal that it even shared its ratings in press releases in March.
Now, two months later and six events into the new season, those ratings reports have disappeared, and disappeared by design.
