51-year-old Lee Westwood will play in this week’s U.S. Senior Open, marking the first senior major of his career.
Englishman Lee Westwood is fed up with the current schism surrounding professional golf, as the PGA Tour tries to strike a deal with LIV Golf’s beneficiary, the Saudi Public Investment Fund (PIF).
Westwood wants the best players to play side-by-side in every tournament, not just in the majors.

Whenever I fly, I have to have something to do. I load up on tunes, on podcasts, and I cram in earbuds as soon as possible to avoid any, “So, are you from Harrisburg or just visiting?” small talk.
What I don’t do is nothing but stare straight ahead for hours and hours like a psycho, but that’s the biggest trend in air travel right now with dudes (this appears to be very much a dude thing) looking to “raw dog” flights.
Translation: they do nothing for the entire trip. Not even eat, sleep, or drink.

Before Hull and Hall play for Great Britain in the Olympics, these two best friends will take on the LPGA Dow Championship.
Charley Hull and Georgia Hall are best friends who grew up playing golf together and are both LPGA veterans.
This week, they paired up for the LPGA Dow Championship, a multi-format stroke-play team event at Midland Country Club in Midland, Michigan.
In rounds one and three, the ladies will play foursomes or alternate shot.

We continue our summer ‘Flip the Script’ series by trying to identify who this year’s Jordan Love will be: A dark horse QB that comes out of nowhere to finish as a top 5 fantasy QB in 2024. Andy Behrens joins Matt Harmon for the pod as they look back at what made Love’s year special in 2023 and who could potentially replicate that in the upcoming season.

MLB’s up-and-coming stars Elly De La Cruz and Oneil Cruz have given fans a reason to tune in this season.
If you’re surveying the baseball landscape for games to watch, I have a pretty good idea of how the process should go for tonight. If your favorite team is playing well, you’re probably going to watch them first. Other than that, if you’re going to pay attention to any baseball game that doesn’t involve your favorite team for the next couple of days then your eyes should be locked in for what’s going on in Cincinnati this week.

Newport Country Club, which hosted the first ever U.S. Amateur and U.S. Open, will welcome Ernie Els and the best senior players this week.
Ernie Els has won the U.S. Open twice and a pair of Claret Jugs, so this week’s U.S. Senior Open at Newport Country Club should suit his game nicely.
Els compared Newport to Royal Troon, the site of this year’s Open Championship, as Newport, like Troon, sits right on the coast, meaning the elements have a great impact on the course.
