OAKMONT, Pa. (AP) — J.J. Spaun faced his first big moment on a big stage in golf and he wasn’t ready for it. He didn’t even have a club in his hand. Spaun was a 26-year-old PGA Tour rookie at Torrey Pines in 2017. He was not eligible for the pro-am and wanted to see the North course when he came across an enormous crowd that could mean only one thing: Tiger Woods. He was walking along the edge of the fairway when Amy Bartlett, a Nike representative, spotted him and offered a chance to meet Woods. Spaun shook his head and took a step back. Bartlett laughed and dragged him over. “I was too scared,” Spaun said a few weeks later. “I didn’t want to bug him.” Woods was gracious, as he often was with young players. For Spaun to imagine then that their names would be on the same piece of hardware — a silver U.S. Open trophy — would have been hard to fathom.  » Read More

CROMWELL, Conn. (AP) — Jay Monahan is leaving the PGA Tour next year after a decade that ends with a sport fractured by the Saudi riches of LIV Golf. He turns it over to top NFL executive Brian Rolapp in a new role as CEO that Rolapp sees as rife with commercial growth. Rolapp, the chief media and business officer for the NFL and seen as a potential successor to a Commissioner Roger Goodell, was introduced Tuesday as CEO, a position that had never existed in the tour’s six decades of existence. “Players are central to everything we do, and making sure they are supported and heard will be a top priority,” Rolapp said in an open letter. “At the same time, we are going to keep challenging ourselves to grow the game in new ways, reach new fans, and create a tour that reflects the future of sports and entertainment.” Rolapp met with the players for an hour on Tuesday morning ahead of the Travelers Championship, offering broad views more geared toward what the tour has in its favor before identifying any solutions to patch the game back together.  » Read More

Fujifilm North America Corp., Electronic Imaging Division, has announced the Fujifilm X Half and X-E5 cameras and the Fujinon XF 23mm F2.8 R WR lens. The X Half compact digital camera (pictured above) weighs 8½ ounces (including battery and memory card) and maintains the form and function of the X Series with its use of an aperture ring, Frame Advance Lever and other controls that celebrate the functionality of traditional analog photography. The in-camera 2-in-1 feature allows users to combine vertical stills and movies with a simple winding of the Frame Advance Lever. Users can also create 2-in-1 images with selected still-image combinations through the dedicated X Half smartphone app. The camera is equipped with 13 Film Simulations that emulate classic Fujifilm analog film varieties, as well as three new filters: Light Leak, which creates a slightly exposed look; Halation, a halo effect that appears around light sources; and Expired Film, which mimics the grainy look of older analog film. Also included are eight filters from the Instax instant-camera series, as well as a Grain Effect option that adds various textures of grain to the entire image.  » Read More

by Tom Ruminski Jun 15, 5:32 PM G Fiume / Getty Images Sport / Getty Washington Nationals manager Dave Martinez said he wasn't specifically blaming his players when discussing the club's offensive struggles with reporters amid a seven-game losing skid. Martinez appeared to take aim at his team Saturday when he said "you got to put the onus on the players" and that "it's never on coaching." However, he clarified his remarks Sunday. "They were great. I talked to a lot of them already. ... Hey, it wasn't on them, right?" Martinez said, according to Andrew Golden of The Washington Post. "My comments were nothing about them. They know that. They read through it. ... The clubhouse is about as good as it's ever been." He added: "Was never about them, right? I never mentioned anything about players, right? I played. I understand how hard this game is. They know that." Martinez acknowledged he was questioned about the coaching staff's role in turning the club's fortunes around.  » Read More

PHILADELPHIA – The Phillies have had a fog machine in the home clubhouse since 2022, the year where everything changed. It sits in one of Zack Wheeler’s lockers. It was upgraded a year later. Smoke fills the room. It sometimes sneaks into the hallway after big wins. The visibility was nearly zero as reporters walked into the clubhouse 20 minutes after the final out. Only the silhouette of Saturday’s starter Cristopher Sánchez could be seen as he sat at his locker. He laughed. “Welcome to the Philly party,” Sánchez said. A lot has been made about what this Phillies season has felt like.  » Read More

Published June 14, 2025 at 1:30 PM EDT A lot happened this week, and NPR has you covered. Catch up on the big news and culture moments you might have missed. The Trump administration deployed thousands of National Guard troops and mobilized hundreds of active-duty Marines to Los Angeles, California to control days-long protests sparked by ICE raids in the city, over the objections of the mayor and the governor. We spoke to several people about the situation, including California Gov. Gavin Newsom who said the mobilization was "illegal," and a spokesperson for the Department of Homeland Security who defended the decision. Plus, Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy spoke to Morning Edition about why he voted for President Trump, how he disagrees with him and whether he could support Democrats, and Questlove joined us to talk at length about Ladies & Gentlemen... 50 Years of SNL Music.

June 14, 2025Updated 12:10 pm EDT HOUSTON — Still in a dirt-stained uniform, Jacob Melton trudged across an almost empty clubhouse Friday night. He bore almost no weight on a sprained right ankle that dimmed the delight of his first big-league extra-base hit — a perfect personification of the Houston Astros’ predicament. A deluge of injuries is overshadowing Houston’s most dominant stretch of the season. The club has opened a four-game lead in the American League West with a skeleton roster in desperate need of some reinforcements. Yordan Alvarez’s right hand fracture has crippled an already top-heavy lineup. Isaac Paredes’ left hamstring strain Thursday night only furthered the problem. Friday brought a “pretty good sprain” of Melton’s ankle, forcing the Astros further into the most vulnerable piece of their organization. Position-player depth is almost nonexistent, part of why Houston signed a slew of veterans to minor-league deals before spring training. Two of them, Luis Guillorme and Cooper Hummel, will be summoned from Triple-A Sugar Land before Saturday’s game against the Minnesota Twins,  » Read More

by Dane Belbeck Jun 13, 6:43 PM Gregory Shamus / Getty Images Sport / Getty Apparently nobody told Sam Burns that Oakmont was supposed to be the hardest test of the year. The 28-year-old made the iconic layout look like a regular PGA TOUR stop Friday with six birdies against one bogey to post a sizzling 5-under 65. The stellar second round pushed him up the U.S. Open leaderboard and gave him the clubhouse lead at 3-under as the afternoon wave began teeing off. Burns' strong performance was the latest in a series of solid play. He fired a final-round 62 in Canada last week before falling short in a playoff against Ryan Fox. Burns showed throughout Friday's round why he's statistically the best putter on the PGA TOUR, canning all 16 of his putts inside 10 feet. He also ranked second among the morning wave in approach - a deadly combo that explains how he moved up following a 2-over opening round. Burns ranked 106th in the field in putting Thursday,  » Read More
