Fight Night Long Island
- July 23, 2017
In addition to the left hand he dropped Weidman with early, he landed several good jabs - but struggled to string together those bursts of offense. Weidman soon had Gastelum's back, and when Gastelum muscled his way up Weidman slammed him back down again - and then again. (more...)

McIlroy 'still in it' after recovering from bad start at The Open
- July 23, 2017
And Royal Birkdale is primed for more blustery weather after Friday's early starters contended with winds of up to 20mph. He might not be the most consistent golfer on earth, but he moves the needle more than anyone else now playing, and he's the one golfer who can inject adrenaline into any major with a string of birdies.

How India should guard against being tripped up by England
- July 23, 2017
Acting President C.K. Khanna said: "The BCCI acknowledges the performance of the Indian women's cricket team that has qualified for the final of the ICC Women's World Cup 2017". "When we were started from Bombay, we wanted to reach the semi-final, then reach the final ". After beating England by 35 runs in the opener, they went on to hammer Pakistan, West Indies, New Zealand and Sri Lanka in the group stages. (more...)

Jordan Spieth has leading edge heading into last day of the Open
- July 23, 2017
Applications for media accreditation for next month's US PGA Championship , where Spieth could try and become the youngest victor of the career grand slam. It is a false narrative that dogs Spieth, one that could be viewed as an insult to his competitive resolve, his ability to fight through adverse conditions, the unrelenting desire to simply will the golf ball into the hole.

Joe Morelli's picks to win the British Open
- July 23, 2017
Conditions at Royal Birkdale for the opening round of the Open Championship (that's a fun sentence) were fairly mild, especially for those players not forced to go out right as play began. The American star survived the driving rain and gusting wind to shoot a one-under-par 69 and sit at six-under at the championship's halfway point. "Nothing said "4" about this hole". (more...)

Anirban Lahiri: Rory McIlroy's recovery highlight of second day's play
- July 23, 2017
On a day when Branden Grace carded the first 62 in a major , McIlroy was unable to make any inroads into Jordan Spieth's lead after failing to build on a good start. Open where his first-round score was a six-over 78, this day was a positive one, especially the way it ended. I saw some really good putts going in. (more...)

The Open: Ian Poulter angered by 'disappointing' third round at Royal Birkdale
- July 23, 2017
Meanwhile, former Masters champion Charl Schwartzel of South Africa had briefly joined the leaders on five-under with a birdie at the par-three 4th hole. We had a couple awfully challenging days there at the Scottish Open . "I'm excited about it". McIlroy got up and down from a front bunker for par at the short 7th hole, rolled in a 15-foot putt for par at the 8th hole having pushed his drive into the rough, and birdied four of his last eight holes to shoot a 1-over 71.

"Ecstatic" McIlroy roars into Open contention
- July 23, 2017
Open at Erin Hills to capture his first major championship. Kuchar has yet to win a major championship. He posted a 74 and a 36-hole score of 3-over, and made the cut. He knows what to say out there and what not to say. His pep talk was simple and, it must be said, perfect. He played in the afternoon Thursday when the wind had subsided some, and in the morning on Friday, finishing just before the wind picked up and heavy rain fell. (more...)

Chelsea 3-0 Arsenal: Sensational Batshuayi strike helps seal win
- July 23, 2017
Moments later it was Willian this time who was clear through on goal , after an Ainsley Maitland-Niles mistake, though the Brazilian dragged his shot wide. French global Olivier Giroud entered the game in the second half and provided some spark but his early shots were saved or wide. One reason why I believe that Arsenal will have the advantage is that we have already played three matches and have gained some match fitness, while this will be Chelsea's first warm up game after the ...

And I think this place really fits my game well. His threesome required 18 shots to play that hole. Spieth , world number three and twice major champion, putted smoothly to pick up five birdies and did not drop a shot as fierce crosswinds buffeted the early starters at Royal Birkdale . (more...)

What stands out is St. Andrews in 2015, when the 23-year-old Texan was going for the third leg of the Grand Slam and missed the playoff by one shot. He has been through these mini-slumps a couple of times in the 10 years since he first played the British Open at Carnoustie. (more...)

Derrick Rose, Cavaliers discussed winning now as player's top priority

Despite the tumultuous time with the New York Knicks last season, Rose averaged 18 points, 3.8 rebounds, and 4.4 assists. He missed the entire 2012-13 season and played less than a month of the 2013-14 campaign before a season-ending right knee injury. (more...)

Mithali Raj, Harmanpreet Kaur take guard as endorsement stars

Harmanpreet Kaur's commanding 171 not out helped India trounce defending champions Australia in the semi-final on Thursday but three-time champions England will pose an equally tough challenge. For Raj and India pace bowler Jhulan Goswami, the leading run-scorer and wicket-taker in women's one-day global history respectively, this could be the last chance the two 34-year-olds have to win the World Cup.

Boasson Hagen wins Tour de France stage 19
- July 23, 2017
When he rides into Paris on Sunday he will know that only Belgian great Merckx, Frenchmen Jacques Anquetil and Bernard Hinault , and Spanish freight train Indurain have won the Tour more times than him. "Then next year I will target the one-day classics and then the Tour". Froome now heads into the final day having increased his overall lead over former team-mate Rigoberto Uran to 54 seconds.

Possible Kyrie Irving trade scenario with Suns and Spurs

James has said that he was " blindsided and disappointed" by Irving's request to leave the team. Irving, 25, has been with the Cavaliers since they made him the No. The four-time All-Star no longer wants to play alongside LeBron James and prefers to go to a team where he can be more of a focal point, sources said.

Derrick Rose nearing a relatively cheap one-year deal with Cavaliers

The Cavaliers have had a rather lackluster free agency period. After seeing the Cavaliers thoroughly outworked by the loaded Golden State Warriors in the NBA Finals in June, it's easy to see just how important depth is to a winning formula. (more...)

Barrett and Coles back, but Hurricanes won't underestimate Brumbies

Larkham said he had been optimistic about Lealiifano's chances of returning. "I've seen him build himself back up, I've seen him go through some really hard times and I've seen him push himself beyond breaking at times to get right for this", he said. (more...)

Spieth, Koepka tame tough conditions at Birkdale
- July 22, 2017
Two-time major victor Jordan Spieth held the halfway lead on six under par , two shots ahead of Ryder Cup team-mate Matt Kuchar , with England's Ian Poulter on three under alongside US Open champion Brooks Koepka . Not putting that much pressure on myself, but very much wanting to win it. If he can do that, it would mean a 10th different victor in 10 majors, although it would end a remarkable run of the last seven being won by first-time major winners. (more...)

Open Championship: Rory McIlroy 'ecstatic' after second-round 68
- July 22, 2017
And I went with those today and it worked. But I'll keep an eye on the leaderboard. After playing his first six holes in 5 over par, a shell-shocked McIlroy responded by playing his final 12 holes in 4 under. "Thankfully he's not had to do it too often", said McIlroy, who has missed three of his last four tournament cuts, something he had not done since the summer of 2012. (more...)
