Anybody watch The Masters and The Chevron? Scheffler and Korda (whose daddy won the AO in 1998) are now the dominant faces of professional golf, hands down. Great stuff!

If you're talking about Nelly, I heard on the news she won her 5th straight event! Petre must be a very proud Papa as all 3 of his kids are successful in sports doing something to keep the Korda name out there well past Daddy winning the AO almost 30 years ago! It's so strange seeing his face every time I see Nelly!

This Caitlin Clark thing is just mind boggling to me. Is women's basketball self sabotaging? Biggest draw in the history of women's basketball and her colleagues can't see past their jealousy to understand that this will ultimately benefit them!

Strange ^ but, who knows with all the "politics" in this crap.

I've heard so many angles to this. It's jealousy about her fame and fortune. It's a race thing. It's the fact she's heterosexual in a lesbian dominated sport. What I do know is there are a whole load of female pundits who've suddenly developed a bad case of 'get off my lawn' mentality. And I admit I find the irony delicious

^ hey now! You're talking to a lesbian trapped in a man's body!

Hey, @shawnbm and @Kieran , first time I check this thread. Huge Formula 1 follower here, I can count on the fingers of one hand the number of races I missed since the early 80's.

I used to be a Ferrari fan (being of Italian descent), but decades ago I realized they are too phony and obnoxious for my taste. I still cannot shake they completely, and right now they have Leclerc there, who I think is an amazing driver, so in the end I still root for them -- or maybe I hate the rest even more. I wish Lamborghini would come back one day... There was Alfa Romeo, but that was just branding.
