Brooks Koepka can’t stand Bryson DeChambeau’s talk

Golf appears to be a game of manners. Don’t be fooled. Golf is a game of seething hate, grievances great and small, barely masked by a thin veneer of decorum. You want to win against the world’s best, you can’t be a nice guy. You’ve got to have a deep well of mean in your soul. Every single one of golf’s champions does, no matter what pleasant face they present to the world. All of this is a long and florid way of saying: Brooks Koepka gave us an honest look at the mind of a… Source link

Fed ‘not quite there yet’ to start taper talk

TipRanks Billionaire Israel Englander Bets on These 2 Penny Stocks Let’s talk about risk, reward, and pennies. The three are related, of course. There’s no reward in the stock market without taking on some risk – and penny stocks offer investors an optimum combination of both. The ‘pennies’ are the lowest cost stocks on the public markets, typically priced below $5 per share. At such a low share price, even a small gain – a share price increase of mere pennies – can quickly… Source link

Trump turns on his own party and labels Republicans who don’t want to talk about Arizona ‘weak and stupid’

Donald Trump is still a big name in Republican politics (AP) Former President Donald Trump has labelled Republicans who do not want to discuss Arizona vote recount as ‘weak and stupid’ in an interview. Speaking on One America News Network, Mr Trump said to anchor Chanel Rion about the vote recount in the state the GOP lost for the first time in 20 years in 2020. It is a significant event in the ‘Stop the Steal’, a campaign based on the unverified claims that the last election contained… Source link

Yahoo Golf Talk: 2021 PGA Championship

The Ocean Course at Kiawah Island reclaims its role as host venue ahead of this week’s PGA Championship. It last played that role during the 2012 PGA where Rory McIlroy lapped the field. The course is known for being extremely exposed to the wind but the wind forecast is currently on the mild side. That could change at the drop of a hat so keep an eye on that. Other than being exposed to the wind, golfers talk a lot about the wall-to-wall paspalum which is a grass they don’t see very often on… Source link

What ‘The Ellen Show’s’ exit says about the future of TV, talk shows

Ellen DeGeneres is ending her eponymous daytime talk show after nearly two decades.  DeGeneres, who discussed the show’s ending with fellow daytime legend Oprah Winfrey on Thursday, said that although she feels like it was “the right thing to do… it’s a weird thing to announce that I’m stopping.”  The long-running chat fest, much like the rest of Hollywood these days, has been clouded in controversy after allegations of a “toxic work environment” behind the scenes exploded on social media… Source link

Yahoo Golf Talk: AT&T Byron Nelson

TPC Craig Ranch hops in this week to fill the void of hosting the AT&T Byron Nelson. They have a five-year contract for this event but as we saw with Trinity Forest, that could end sooner if it doesn’t go well. What do we know about Craig Ranch? It’s a par 72 that will play over 7,400 yards. The course has been soaked with rain in the lead-up to the event. The zoysia fairways don’t get much run to begin with so we should expect big hitters to have a nice advantage if they don’t move up some… Source link

Yahoo Golf Talk: Wells Fargo Championship

Quail Hollow Club returns this week to host another Wells Fargo Championship. The course is one of the longest on TOUR. It’s loaded up to 7,521 yards as a par-71 layout. Distance is a clear advantage when you get a course that long. There are two stats I will focus on this week and both of them bake in power as part of the equation. I want to find golfers that can stripe it off the tee and also attack from long range on approach (200+ yards). Let’s jump into the numbers to see if any value… Source link
