M.J. Daffue is playing in his first U.S. Open. After nine holes on Friday, he was leading the U.S. Open by three strokes. Those facts combined would melt the brains of most people who watch golf, but the people who are capable of playing it are made of sterner stuff. Stuff that drives them to take shots like this, for instance: (Via screenshot) Yes, that’s Daffue, pronounced “Duffy,” preparing to drive off the deck from a hospitality tent alongside the 14th hole at The Country Club.

When the other man — later identified as Anthony D. Malone —… Source link

Al Horford thanked God, because in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference semifinals, he was touched. Two years after he left the Boston Celtics in free agency, Horford’s former team gave him another chance, reacquiring a contract the Philadelphia 76ers and Oklahoma City Thunder had written off in the meantime. The 15-year veteran paid off every cent with a playoff career-high 30 points that saved the Celtics’ season and gave him one more title shot with a team he led to back-to-back conference… Source link

Friday morning, Rich Strike wasn’t entered in the Kentucky Derby. Saturday evening, the 80-1 long shot was a Derby champion. The 148th Kentucky Derby went off under gray skies on a track that wasn’t nearly as soaked as conditions had forecast, and for almost all of the race the favorites ran as predicted. But in the final few paces, Rich Strike cut to the inside to beat two favorites, Zandon and Epicenter, to win the race. Rich Strike, entered only when Ethereal Road scratched out Friday… Source link

Curtis Blaydes knocked out Chris Daukaus in the second round Saturday, then immediately called for an interim title shot as soon as June. (Photo by Josh Hedges/Zuffa LLC) There were no takedown attempts. No thoughts of slow-playing it to try to wear down his opponent. It was toe-to-toe, power-to-power, man-to-man, for Curtis Blaydes on Saturday against a rising KO artist, Chris Daukaus, at Nationwide Arena in Columbus, Ohio. The threat of the takedown from Blaydes was enough, as the former… Source link

The Biden administration on Wednesday issued a long-awaited executive order to comprehensively study cryptocurrencies, effectively firing the starting pistol for Congress and other federal agencies to begin crafting oversight of digital tokens.

LAS VEGAS — The UFC’s lightweight division is filled with elite talent. Champion Charles Oliveira will defend against Justin Gaethje in May, and if he gets through that successfully, he’ll most likely face Islam Makhachev next. Makhachev’s dominance is impossible to overlook at this point. Former champion Conor McGregor is lobbying for a title shot, but if McGregor, coming off back-to-back losses to Dustin Poirier and with a 1-3 record in his last four, gets a shot it would render the… Source link
