How November, and Dustin Johnson’s stellar play, gave us a truly unique Masters
In the most unique Masters tournament of our lifetime, Xander Schauffele had 71 yards left into the 15th green during Thursday’s opening round.

A tradition unlike any other in a year unlike any other: The Masters, with no azaleas in bloom
Among the wackiest sports nuggets of 2020 will be the Masters, an April tradition being played in November.

Mets Owners Gave Bill de Blasio $5,400 The Day Before He Quit His Presidential Campaign
In 2019, Jed Lowrie suffered a lower-body injury in spring training that somehow never got better or better-understood; for much of the year, the injury was just designated as “left side.” While he was unable to play the field at all, Lowrie did finally make it back to the bigs at the very end of th...
Andy Murray Is Back To Beefing
Andy Murray’s happy return to tennis wouldn’t have been complete without some trademark stink-faced kvetching—mostly at himself, but occasionally at his opponent when the situation warrants. Few opponents deserve a good kvetch in the face like Fabio Fognini, Murray’s matchup in the second round of t...
This Guy Truly Has No Idea What He's Talking About
It is a problem for President Donald Trump that it’s often impossible to tell what the hell he’s talking about.
