Day, a member at Muirfield Village, entered the week without a top-25 finish in the event. But he’s on track to demolish that stat after firing a 6-under 66 on Thursday, spurred by an eagle on the par-5 15th.

Johnson moved into a two-stroke lead at TPC Boston thanks to a stunning 11-under 60 – a career-low – on Friday. The 2016 U.S. Open champion, and two-time Northern Trust winner, was 9 under through eight holes and then picked up shots at 10 and 11, but he parred his last seven to miss out on a 59. The American is still two shots clear of Scheffler and Cameron Davis, who continued his consistent play with a 65....

Footage shown on Dutch TV shows customs officials confiscating the food from bemused drivers, as they are told they can no longer bring “certain foods to Europe, like meat, fruit, vegetables, fish, that kind of stuff” following the end of the transition period between the U.K. and the EU on New Year’s Day. One of the startled drivers is shown asking if he can at least take the bread after the ham has been seized, to which a customs official replies: “No, everything will be confiscated....
Betters have been showing their support for the actor since his fiery speech yesterday in which he lambasted Donald Trump in response to the widespread protests taking place across the country following the death of George Floyd. Bookmakers currently have ‘The Rock’ priced at +40000, which suggests there’s only a 0.2 percent chance the WWE star will win the 2020 Election. Which kind of makes sense, seeing as he’s not even running....
One aspect of the interview that was particularly interesting was his admission of being afraid to fail. A lot of athletes have an overwhelming confidence that they can do anything. That’s often the image they like to portray of themselves, and it’s something fans admire in them. MORE: NBA Mock Draft 3.0: Who do the 76ers want with top pick?

Why Dani Alves’ Barca love affair ended In fact, the comprehensive 3-0 victory over the Blaugrana only strengthened the Argentine’s belief that he is already representing one of the game’s top teams. “Juve have no reason to be jealous of Real Madrid, Bayern Munich or Barcelona,” the 23-year-old declared after extending his contract with the Old Lady until 2022. As the most recent Deloitte Football Money League underlined, the Bianconeri still have some way to go before they can claim to be operating on the same financial plain as Europe’s elite but Juve are now more competitive - on and off the field - than they have been at any point during the past decade....
Juve 8/1 with dabblebet to win CL Following the record-breaking €222 million sale of Neymar to Paris Saint-Germain, Barca are in the market for attacking reinforcements. Several options are reportedly being considered, with the likes of Liverpool playmaker Philippe Coutinho and Borussia Dortmund winger Ousmane Dembele among them. Argentina international Dybala is another of those to have sparked transfer talk for some time, but the 23-year-old claims to be happy in Turin and will let Juve decide how long he stays at the club....

Released on August 16, the University of North Florida (UNF) poll showed DeSantis with a two-point lead over Trump among registered Republican voters in the state, with just 7 percent of voters saying they’d vote for someone else. While other polls have directly compared Trump and DeSantis—a rising star in the GOP who has modeled his political brand after Trump’s—the UNF poll appears to be the first public example of DeSantis’ viability in his home state in a head-to-head contest for the presidency against the man who is still widely considered the head of the modern Republican Party....
Jeffery Moore, previously the only Republican on the five-member Gadsden County Board of County Commissioners, resigned on Friday and is facing questions from local clergy after the photo allegedly showing him in a KKK robe and hood surfaced, the Tallahassee Democrat reported Tuesday.

And as such they are, presumably, on edge as rumors swirl about the franchise quarterback’s future in Houston. That future appears more likely to take place with any team but the Texans, with reports of a growing rift between Watson and Houston brass growing wider. Those reports spurred the Houston faithful to take action: On Monday, a group of diehard fans decided to gather at NRG Stadium and march for Watson, in support of the quarterback in light of the team’s treatment of him....
But running around and throwing lasers again to his college go-to guys at wide receiver and tight end provided a reminder of his greatest, most immeasurable asset vs. any other QB in the class — he’s the only one who can boast that he’s fresh off leading a team to a national championship.

Before the encounter, Sarak M’Barek’s ladies were yet to win a league game in six successive matches, after picking three draws and defeats. The 23-year-old scored in the 84th minute to cancel out Anais Dunmont’s early goal for the hosts before Laura Bourgouin got the winning goal four minutes before full time. The win sees them move out of the relegation zone to ninth spot with six points from eighth games and the goal was the striker’s second in seven matches this season....
He sure did. Not only is Desmond still looking for a team with only a few weeks remaining until spring training, but there is absolutely no buzz around him. There’s been a little more chatter around Yovani Gallardo and Dexter Fowler, but nothing actually doing. They’re still free agents, still attached to poison pills they bear no responsibility for.

Trump pleased with joint World Cup bid Not everyone shared in Montagliani’s joy. Complaints have poured in from critics from all three participants in the joint bid — the United States, Mexico and Canada — with issues ranging from the breakdown of the games (75 percent of which would be held in the U.S.) to the fact the countries even agreed to combine their bids after all three initially showed interest in bidding independently....
