Three-time champion Phil Mickelson did not have his best stuff to open The Masters, but offered insight into Bryson’s DeChambeau’s game.

It was a day or two late, but new Alabama football coach Kalen DeBoer apparently knows Damage Control 101 better than some at the University of Alabama. Or Alabama is learning from past mistakes.

Ippei Mizuhara, a former interpreter for Los Angeles Dodgers star Shohei Ohtani, has been charged with bank fraud in a federal investigation into the interpreter’s involvement with an illegal Southern California bookmaker and millions of dollars stolen from Ohtani’s bank accounts.
On Wednesday, news arose regarding Mizuhara’s intent on pleading guilty, weeks after a whirlwind of testimonies concerning the illegal betting activity and whether Ohtani was involved in the millions of dollars used for betting.

The future of the Arizona Coyotes and at least one member of the Toronto Maple Leafs who hails from Arizona is bumming about the situation.
No, not Auston Matthews (maybe he is; I don’t know), Matthew Knies.
The Phoenix native is wrapping up his first full season with the Leafs after playing a handful of regular-season games and the playoffs in Toronto last season.
Considering he grew up around the team, reporters asked him his thoughts on the Coyotes potentially moving to Salt Lake City as rumors of a sale to Utah Jazz owner Ryan Smith heat up.

Ippei Mizuhara is accused of stealing millions of dollars from the MLB star, and the details are absolutely wild.
Last month when news broke of a major story involving Shohei Ohtani, the biggest star in professional baseball, and illegal gambling, it was hard to imagine a more explosive story in sports this year. While the initial details were confusing and murky, the narrative has cleared up over the weeks as MLB and the federal government initiated their respective investigations.

Danny Willett, the Englishman who won the 2016 Masters Tournament, is contending at Augusta National again.
Last September, after tying for 67th at the BMW PGA Championship at Wentworth, Danny Willett met with doctors to discuss a lingering shoulder issue. The physicians then told him he would have to undergo surgery, which would keep him sidelined for 12 to 18 months.
Seven months later, Willett is contending at The Masters after opening with a 4-under 68.

A big piece of the 2025 Formula 1 grid puzzle has fallen into place with news that Fernando Alonso — at 42 years old — has signed with Aston Martin for two more seasons.
Alonso was non-committal when asked about his future earlier this year, and talked about needing to decide if he even wanted to continue racing in Formula 1, where he has raced for over two decades, save for a hiatus from following the 2018 season until the 2021 season.
He wants in, and this new deal will take Alonso through the 2025 season as well as the 2026 season, the first with brand-new engine regulations.
