The PGA Tour remains in the Lone Star State for the second consecutive week, as the Valero Texas Open takes center stage.
The PGA Tour heads west on Interstate 10 from Memorial Park in Houston to TPC San Antonio for this week’s Valero Texas Open.
Won last year by Canadian Corey Conners, the 2024 edition boasts an impressive field in what will mark the final PGA Tour event before the Masters.

Happy Monday, and welcome to perhaps the greatest night in women’s college basketball history.
Of course, it could be passed next week in the national championship game, but one game at a time, please.
Defending national champion LSU (31-5) and coach Kim “Cruella” Mulkey play No. 1 seed Iowa (32-4) and fairy goddess point guard princess Caitlin Clark tonight in an NCAA Regional championship game in Albany, New York. This will be in prime time (7:15 p.m., ESPN). This could be watched by more than some Monday Night Football games as it could surpass 10 million viewers.
It has felt like a matter of when, not if, Stephan Jaeger would break through and earn a win on the PGA Tour. That moment came in Houston on Sunday in what turned into a scene very few would have ever predicted.
Scottie Scheffler played a role in that unlikely scene. It was another masterclass from the man who was hunting for his third-straight win, but the putter let him down a handful of times, which came up costly. Speaking of the missed putts he’s been racking up in bunches, it could be the perfect time for him to turn any doubt into motivation.
Reigning MVP Joel Embiid could make his return to the 76ers as soon as Tuesday, sources told ESPN. He has not played since Jan. 30 and undergoing meniscus surgery.
Let’s hear it for the play design.
The UFL is only two games into their inaugural season and already putting together some of the greatest football moments of all time. In the San Antonio Brahmas 27-12 upset over the DC Defenders, Brahmas head coach Wade Phillips (yes, you read that right) called up the greatest fake field goal known to man, because the person who scored was the CENTER.
No, not the long snapper who was at the center of the line, but the center who snaps the ball on all the offensive plays during the Brahmas’ victory.
Luka Doncic’s long distance underhand shot is mind-melting
Luka Doncic is constantly out-doing himself on the basketball court. The Dallas Mavericks superstar has a level of technical mastery that is unequaled in today’s game outside of Stephen Curry. A player like Nikola Jokic wins with his size and with his brain first and foremost. Giannis Antetokounmpo wins with athleticism and strength. Doncic, meanwhile, dominates the NBA by doing things no one else alive would even dream of.

The lack of LPGA coverage was evident on Sunday as golf fans believed broadcast networks whiffed on it.
Sunday featured some incredible golf for the PGA Tour and the LPGA, as the top players in both the men’s and women’s games were in contention to win again.
Scottie Scheffler came up short after missing a short birdie putt on the final hole at the Texas Children’s Houston Open.
However, Nelly Korda won her third consecutive start and made history on Sunday. But fans only got to see her last few holes.
This week in golf: Scottie Scheffler saw two streaks end, and Bryson DeChambeau tried to roll back the rollback.
D.J. Burns is the GOAT.
D.J. Burns Jr. is the March Madness hero we need and deserve. The round mound who’s Final Four bound dispatched Duke on Sunday night, then had some choice words for fans in the stands.

Burns was in for some free throws at the end of the game when he heard Duke fans yelling at him, so he decided to dance a little, and throw some serious shade at them.
Ticket prices for the LSU/Iowa game might surprise some fans.
The Hawkeyes and Tigers play Monday night in Albany, New York in what is almost certainly the most-anticipated Elite 8 game in the history of women’s basketball thanks to the Caitlin Clark effect and LSU rivalry.
I hopped on SeatGeek curious to see what tickets were selling for, and I expected prices to be through the roof. While high, they might not be as high as you’d think.
As of publication, tickets are selling for $170 on SeatGeek with fees included. A lot of tickets are selling in the $350 range.
