Scottie Scheffler closes with 68, wins another Masters title

A victory at the 2024 Masters seemed inevitable for Scottie Scheffler. The Texan has been ranked No. 1 in the world for more than 80 weeks during his short career. He’d won eight times on the PGA Tour since February 2022, a stretch that saw him become the first golfer ever to collect the Players Championship in back-to-back years. Scheffler is regarded as perhaps golf’s best ball striker since Tiger Woods in his prime, and Scheffler’s magical hands around the greens also have drawn comparison to you-know-who. Until Sunday, Scheffler had only one major championship victory, the 2022 Masters, which might have been […]

Stefanos Tsitsipas swept aside Casper Ruud 6-1, 6-4 on Sunday to win the clay-court Monte Carlo Masters for the third time in four years and then wept in his chair. Tsitsipas sat holding his head in his hands, briefly crying as he took in his first title of the year and biggest tournament victory in two years. “I’m very proud of myself today. I had been waiting for a moment like this for a long time,” said the 12th-ranked Tsitsipas, who reached a career-high No. 3 ranking in 2021. “I did not know what was going to happen this week.” The big-serving Greek […]

Real Madrid want Santiago Bernabeu roof shut against Man City

Real Madrid have asked UEFA for approval to play Manchester City under a closed roof at the Santiago Bernabeu in an effort to boost the atmosphere for Tuesday’s Champions League quarterfinal first-leg tie versus the Premier League side, sources have told ESPN. City, who won their first Champions League title last season, are due to face Madrid for the third-successive season in the competition. Pep Guardiola’s team drew 1-1 at the Bernabeu in last season’s semifinal first-leg and lost 3-1 in Madrid in the semifinal second-leg 12 months earlier. But after losing 5-1 on aggregate in last season’s semifinal, Madrid are now attempting to take […]

‘Pitbull’ Cruz stops ‘Rolly’ Romero; Lara and Martinez shine in wins

Isaac “Pitbull” Cruz set the tone early Saturday night at T-Mobile Arena, with wild overhand rights that whistled by the head of Rolando “Rolly” Romero.

Coco Gauff into 4th round in Miami, eyes first hometown title

Third-ranked Coco Gauff came from behind in the first set to defeat Oceane Dodin 6-4, 6-0 and advance to the fourth round of the Miami Open for the second time in her career. Gauff won 10 consecutive games after Dodin took a 4-2 lead in the opening set, thanks partly to nine double-faults by Dodin at critical moments. Gauff has just one loss in her past 23 matches in the United States. That defeat came versus Maria Sakkari at Indian Wells earlier this month. Gauff, who turned 20 on March 13, is the youngest American player to hold a top three seed at Miami. […]

Juan Francisco Estrada-Jesse Rodriguez close for June 29

Juan Francisco Estrada and Jesse “Bam” Rodriguez are concluding a June 29 fight in Glendale, Arizona, for Estrada’s WBC junior bantamweight title, sources told ESPN. Rodriguez, a unified champion at 112 pounds, is returning to 115 for a shot at the future Hall of Famer. Named ESPN’s No. 1 boxer under 25 years old in December, Rodriguez (19-0, 12 KOs) scored a career-best victory that month when he stopped Sunny Edwards in nine rounds to unify flyweight titles. “Bam” is on the cusp of pound-for-pound recognition, but he first must push past of the all-time greats in the lower weights in what shapes up as a […]

South Africa’s double World Cup-winning captain Siya Kolisi may not lead the side this year despite playing excellent rugby for French club Racing 92, coach Rassie Erasmus stated on Tuesday. Erasmus left his role as director of rugby to return as head coach of the Springboks ahead of the 2027 Rugby World Cup in Australia and has hinted that some of the ‘old guard’ will be phased out over the next few seasons. Eighteen of the Springboks’ 33 players in last year’s World Cup squad were over the age of 30, including Kolisi, who will turn 33 in June. Kolisi […]
