Cameron Smith has perfectly valid reason for playing Masters practice round in suit jacket
Turns out, it was a bit.
Smith explained Thursday after his opening 1-under 71 – not in a blazer – that the fashion decision stemmed from a recent hang with Greyson Clothiers founder Charlie Schaefer.
'Funny story,' Smith said, '… We had a couple of beers and maybe even a couple too many beers, and we got to talking about fashion. He said, 'It would be great if you wore a blazer at the Masters. I think it's the place to do it,' and I agreed to it. I'm a man of my word, so I did it.'
The announcers on 'Masters on the Range' had some good fun with Smith's attire as well, at one point breaking down the potential for the jacket to serve as a training aid.

'For how a sport coat or a blazer should feel, that one I was able to swing in pretty easy,' Smith added. 'It was a bit chilly, so it kind of worked out.
'I wouldn't say I'm a fashion guru by any standard, but I felt good in it.'

Willow Smith Posts Crying Photo & Talks About ‘Eating P—-‘
sparked widespread concern after she uploaded a selfie of herself crying on Instagram. Fans soon took to social media to criticize her famous parents, Will and Jada Pinkett Smith — who share a complicated dynamic that has often been reported on — for their parenting. In 2019, the singer, who is currently signed to Jay-Z's Roc Nation, made headlines after she came out as bisexual and identified as polyamorous. Willow Smith posts picture of herself crying on Instagram The 'Wait a Minute!' singer recently shared a crying selfie on social media. 'Who ate all the p—,' Willow Smith captioned the photo on her Instagram stories. Fans online reacted to the picture in a variety of ways. Some highlighted and questioned Will and Jada Pinkett Smith's parenting, blaming it for the 24-year-old musician's behavior. 'Why are Will Smith's kids so weird?' a fan wrote on X (formerly Twitter). 'Will Smith and Jada have utterly failed as parents,' another fan commented. 'Their kids are dumb as hell.' Moreover, one fan suggested that a documentary be made on the Smith family's life. They wrote, 'Ngl, we need a 6-part documentary on this entire family.' The fan reactions also included discussions about Willow Smith's sexuality. Previously, she came out as bisexual in a 2019 appearance on Red Table Talk, noting she loved 'men and women equally.' Moreover, in a 2021 appearance on the talk show, the 'Coping Mechanism' singer shared that she identified as polyamorous. She also noted that 'antiquated' monogamy led to infidelity. Smith explained, 'With polyamory, I feel like the main foundation is the freedom to be able to create a relationship style that works for you and not just [to be] stepping into monogamy because that's what everyone around you says is the right thing to do.' Willow Smith later addressed the fan reactions in a separate Instagram story. She mocked fans for their concern, calling them 'dense.' Smith wrote, 'Y'all forgot funny existed!' Further, she compared their concern to 'molasses' that was 'slow but also sweet though.' (via E! Online) Originally reported by Abdul Azim Naushad on Mandatory.

Seven SWLA kickers who keep their teams on the right foot, weaponizing third phase of the game
When it comes to kicking in football, high-pressure situations come with the territory. It could be a last-second field goal attempt, an extra-point kick to break an overtime tie, or a punt to pin the opponent deep on its side of the field. Luke Wainwright, Noah Menard, Sam Smith, Cameron Bonin, Payton Crawford, Braylon Beard, and Monte Farmer are a few of the returning starters in Southwest Louisiana looking to use their precision kicking to help their high school football teams in tough situations. Luke Wainwright Wainwright, a 5-foot-11, 160-pound senior, experienced a tricky situation firsthand last year. With 15 seconds on the clock in Grand Lake's Non-select Division IV bi-district playoff game against Jonesboro-Hodge, he drilled a 22-yard field goal for a 23-20 win. Earlier in the season, he made a 35-yarder, which was the second-longest in Southwest Louisiana in 2024 behind St. Louis Catholic's Zachry Sugandi- Pruitt's 53-yarder. Wainwright, who also plays golf and was the Division IV state runner-up medalist, made 33 of 37 point-after attempts. He will also see time at wide receiver this year. 'He has done really well this offseason,' said head coach Jeff Wainwright, Luke's uncle. 'I think he gained a lot of confidence last year, especially at the end of the year against Jonesboro-Hodge when he had a game-winning field goal. Those are big things for kids to bring back to the table the next year. He's already been in those pressure situations.' Sam Smith Before Smith became South Beauregard's kicking specialist last season, he made a name for himself on the soccer pitch. He scored a single-season school record 45 goals in his junior year. On the gridiron, Smith (6-2, 185) made 33 of 35 PATs, and head coach Brad Kellogg is looking for him to keep teams from getting any yardage off kickoffs. 'He's a soccer kid,' Kellogg said. 'Matter of fact, possibly a scholarship soccer kid, and he's got a strong leg. 'We're really hoping he can kick it in the end zone like St. Louis every time. He's really been working on that. We don't kick a lot of field goals. He's so strong-legged. He just keeps trying to get that ball in the end zone every time.' Payton Crawford Crawford (5-9, 180) made the 5-2A all-district second team as a freshman last season. Oakdale head coach Kevin Bertrand sees his young kicker continually improving after making 11 of 17 kicks last year and will use him at receiver. 'He's been working on it all summer, and he's been doing a good job,' Bertrand said. 'We know going in that he's a guy that understands what we're trying to do.' Menard, Bonin, Farmer, and Beard spread their talents all over the field at multiple positions. Noah Menard Menard plays all over the field for Hamilton Christian and earned all-district honors last season as a wide receiver, placekicker, and punter. He made 30 of 47 PATs, caught 20 passes for 216, and scored six total touchdowns. Braylon Beard Beard (6-1, 175) was the 5-2A second team all-district punter last season made 62 tackles with five sacks and eight tackles for a loss on defense. This year, he will start at defensive end and tight end and is working to learn to play offensive line. Cameron Bonin Bonin, a 5-9, 160-pound senior, was an all-district first team and American Press All-Southwest Louisiana Small Schools punter. He also plays quarterback and defensive back for Lake Arthur. As a junior, he averaged 38.7 yards a punt, made 19 of 27 PATs, and kicked a 22-yard field goal. Running the offense, he completed 36 of 77 passes for 870 yards and nine touchdowns, splitting time with fellow senior Jaxson Davis. Monte Farmer Farmer is a 6-8, 175-pound senior two-sport athlete. He averaged 38.7 yards per punt for Washington-Marion while running the offense at quarterback with 1,442 passing yards and eight touchdowns. The multi-faceted athlete has also played receiver at times and was the American Press All-Southwest Louisiana Big School basketball MVP last season. He averaged 17 points, 13 rebounds, and five blocks a game while playing nearly every position on the court.
