Simone Biles won the U.S. Classic by nearly two full points Saturday night in what was her best outing since the Tokyo Olympics.

Shota Imanaga already looks like an ace, and the bargain of the offseason.

Oleksandr Usyk outlasted heavyweight boxing legend Tyson Fury in an epic heavyweight title fight in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia earlier today. But Fury thinks his defeat can be attributed to a rather odd reason.
The fight went the distance (12 rounds) and had to be decided by judge’s scoring. Fury took a commanding lead through the middle rounds, but Usyk (the underdog heading into the fight) clawed his way back to win the latter ones. In the end, two judges credited Usyk with the victory, scoring the fight 115-112, 114-113 and 113-114.

Bryson DeChambeau vaulted himself into the mix after he finished his round in a big way at the PGA Championship.
Bryson DeChambeau kept himself close most of the day at the PGA Championship, but his hole-out for eagle on the par-5 18th put his second major within reach.
DeChambeau hit a mind-blowing chip that dropped into the hole, sending the crowd into a frenzy. It was one of the loudest moments on the course all day long.

The final round of the 2024 PGA Championship will feature two-person groups for the first time this week.
Another thrilling day at Valhalla is in the books, as Xander Schauffele and Collin Morikawa sit atop the leaderboard at 15-under through 54 holes at the 2024 PGA Championship.
Those two players will comprise the final pairing, with Schauffele looking to claim his first major title.

Oleksandr Usyk rallied to edge Tyson Fury by split decision to become the first undisputed heavyweight champion in the four-belt era Saturday night.

Seize the Grey won the 149th running of the Preakness Stakes on Saturday, denying Kentucky Derby winner Mystik Dan a Triple Crown bid.

For the second year in a row, the NASCAR All-Star Race is being held at the historic North Wilkesboro Speedway, and while it looks like the main event may be safe, heat races were completely washed out in the most literal way imaginable thanks to some wild weather that struck the area on Saturday.
The original plan was for there to be Craftsman Truck Series and a pair of 60-lap heat races ahead of Sunday night’s main event.
However, Mother Nature must not be a fan of stock car racing, because she made it impossible for the races to happen.

After the game-winning goal was called off in the first overtime of last night’s Dallas Stars vs Colorado Avalanche game, NHL on TNT analyst Paul Bissonnette asked on air if the referee was betting on the game after missing a goal. 
The drama started with 7:29 remaining in the first period. Stars forward Mason Marchment appeared to score what would have been the series-advancing goal, but it was waved off due to what was called goalie interference by Dallas’s Matt Duchene.

Phoenix Mercury guard Diana Taurasi has completely changed her tune on a warning she issued to Indiana Fever guard Caitlin Clark before she got drafted.
Back in April, Taurasi was on an alternate broadcast of a women’s Final Four matchup between Clark’s Iowa Hawkeyes and the UConn Huskies (Taurasi’s alma mater). Clark was at the time the biggest star in women’s college basketball and eventually got drafted No. 1 overall in the WNBA Draft by the Fever.
