Wimbledon 2022: Nadal survives injury and Fritz scare to enter semifinals as he keeps career slam hopes alive
In the semifinals on Friday, the second-seeded Spaniard will face Australia's Nick Kyrgios who beat Chile's Cristian Garin 6-4, 6-3, 7-6 (7-5) in an another last-eight encounter. Nadal's hopes of landing a first calendar slam remain alive after he dug deep to edge Fritz in a fifth-set tie-break and reach the semifinals. Competing at this stage of a Grand Slam for a 47th time - compared to a first time for Fritz - Nadal battled through the pain barrier to prevail at SW 19. Nadal, who was regularly checked over by his physio, will now face the temperamental Kyrgios as he looks to add to the Australian Open and French Open crowns already won this year. Fritz had not dropped a single set en route to the final eight, but facing Nadal initially appeared a challenge too far when the Spaniard broke his serve in the opening game. However, the number 11 seed responded brilliantly by whittling off five games in a row - breaking Nadal twice - to take the first set and lay down a … [Read more...] about Wimbledon 2022: Nadal survives injury and Fritz scare to enter semifinals as he keeps career slam hopes alive

The 2022 Open Championship will be a chance for Scottie Scheffler, Justin Thomas and Matt Fitzpatrick to win a second major this year.

2022 Scottish Open: Live stream, watch online, TV schedule, tee times, radio, golf coverage
Getty Images Before players turn their attention to the 150th Open Championship at St. Andrews, they will first head to North Berwick, Scotland, for the 2022 Scottish Open. Serving as a precursor for the year's final major championship, the Scottish Open marks the first co-sanctioned event between the DP World Tour and PGA Tour outside of the World Golf Championships. As such, a stout field has taken shape with 14 of the top-15 players in the Official World Golf Rankings choosing to tee it up at The Renaissance Club. The lone name missing from this list is that of world No. 2 Rory McIlroy, who culminated four straight weeks of competition at the Travelers Championship. The Northern Irishman is readying for the Open on his own, and given the fact he has finished inside the top 10 of all three major championships this season, should probably not be questioned. In his absence, world No. 1 Scottie Scheffler will look to reenter the winner's circle for the first time since his … [Read more...] about 2022 Scottish Open: Live stream, watch online, TV schedule, tee times, radio, golf coverage

2022 Barbasol Championship odds, field: Surprising PGA picks, predictions from model that’s called 8 majors
USATSI The 2022 Barbasol Championship was always going to be played without its defending champion. Seamus Power, who won in a six-hole playoff last year, chose earlier this year to play in the Scottish Open on the same weekend. As it turned out, he ultimately chose to not play in that, either, and took a tie for 30th at last weekend's Irish Open on the European Tour.

Ranking all 32 NFL rosters ahead of 2022 training camp: Bills, Buccaneers, Chargers crack top five
USA Today Training camp is just around the corner in the NFL, and then comes the 2022 season. Plenty of teams have been busy this offseason, spending big to upgrade their lineups. Others have been more focused on rebuilding, tearing things down with the hopes of a brighter future. But which clubs boast the best all-around talent entering the hottest days of summer? Let's rank all 32 teams strictly according to their rosters going into camp, with full knowledge that the remainder of the offseason, the preseason and particularly the real games this fall will come to determine the true pecking order: 32. Falcons Arthur Smith is essentially starting from scratch for a second straight season, and this time, he doesn't have Matt Ryan's veteran savviness to at least mask the offense's thin weaponry. Kyle Pitts and Drake London could form a solid big-boy duo at pass catcher, but there's still a general lack of explosiveness here. Regardless of whether it's Marcus Mariota … [Read more...] about Ranking all 32 NFL rosters ahead of 2022 training camp: Bills, Buccaneers, Chargers crack top five
College World Series 2022: Oklahoma’s go-ahead run against Ole Miss erased due to interference call
Sunday's Game 2 of the College World Series Finals between Oklahoma and Ole Miss was a pitchers' duel of the highest degree through the first five innings as the Sooners looked to extend their season after losing Game 1 to the Rebels on Saturday. With some early production against Ole Miss' Hunter Elliott in the top of the sixth, it appeared that Oklahoma was on the verge of taking a lead. Then the Sooners' Brandon Spikerman laid down a perfect safety squeeze bunt to apparently score the go-ahead run to put OU up 1-0. But the umpire crew took the run off the board after a review, citing runner's interference at first base as Ole Miss catcher Hayden Dunhurst's throw could not get through to first baseman Tim Elko with Spikerman outside of the runner's lane. Oklahoma failed to score in the inning, and Ole Miss' Jacob Gonzalez hit the go-ahead home run in the bottom of the frame. Below is a look at the controversial call. Ahem so you see the Oklahoma player was called out of the … [Read more...] about College World Series 2022: Oklahoma’s go-ahead run against Ole Miss erased due to interference call
