Aldrich Potgieter wins Rocket Classic on 5th playoff hole, outlasting Max Greyserman and Chris Kirk
Aldrich Potgieter made an 18-foot birdie putt on the fifth playoff hole, outlasting Max Greyserman to win the Rocket Classic on Sunday for his first PGA Tour title.'I finally got one to the hole,' Potgieter said after missed opportunities on the green by three players led to the longest playoff of the season on the PGA Tour. The 20-year-old from South Africa is the youngest player on the tour and its biggest hitter. He became the ninth player to win for the first time this season. Chris Kirk was eliminated from contention after missing a 4-foot putt on the second playoff hole after pushing a 9-foot putt past the cup on the first extra hole with a chance to win. Greyserman and Potgieter each had opportunities to win it on the 72nd hole at Detroit Golf Club, but couldn't convert on birdie opportunities to break a tie at 22 under with Kirk. Potgieter, two strokes ahead entering the round, closed with a 3-under 69, and Greyserman and Kirk each shot 67. Greyserman missed a 12-foot putt, and Potgieter came up short on an uphill 42-foot putt. That set up Kirk with an opportunity to win it, but he couldn't take advantage. After Greyserman two-putted from 39 feet for par and Potgieter did the same from 20 feet, Kirk had a chance to win it with a 9-foot putt, only to push it to the right of the cup to extend the playoff. The trio then went to the par-3 158-yard 15th, and Greyserman was the only one who was accurate off the tee and didn't take advantage. The trend continued on the par-4 16th where both Greyserman and Potgieter missed 16-foot putts with a chance to win. At the par-5 14th, Greyserman hit his drive 361 yards–his longest of the week–and was just 2 yards behind Potgieter's blast. Potgieter hit his approach from 195 yards to 19 feet, and he pulled his putt. Greyserman two-putted from 29 feet for birdie. Back at No. 15 for a second time in the playoff, Greyserman two-putted from 34 feet, and then Potgieter finally ended it. Michael Thorbjornsen (67) and Jake Knapp (68) finished a stroke out of the playoff. Collin Morikawa, meanwhile, is still waiting to end his drought. He shot a 68 to finish 19 under and in an eighth-place tie. The two-time major winner, who was the highest-ranked player in the field at No. 5 in the world, has not won the PGA Tour since October 2023 at the Zozo Championship in Japan. Ryder Cup captain Keegan Bradley, who rose to No. 7 in the world after winning the Travelers Championship last week, closed with a 67 to tie for 41st at 12 under.

Marlins Use 8th-Inning Rally To Beat Diamondbacks 6-4, Win 7th Straight Game
Otto Lopez hit a go-ahead two-run single, and Kyle Stowers added a three-run double during an eighth-inning rally. The Miami Marlins completed a three-game sweep by beating the Arizona Diamondbacks 6–4 on Sunday. The streaking Marlins have won seven in a row. The Diamondbacks took a 2–1 lead into the eighth inning, but lefty Jalen Beeks walked the bases loaded with two outs. Lopez then hit a line drive into left that scored Liam Hicks and Dane Myers for a 3–2 lead. Agustin Ramirez was intentionally walked to load the bases again, and Stowers hit a bases-clearing double to push the advantage to 6–2. Arizona's pitchers walked 10 batters, and the team dropped its fourth straight game to fall below .500 at 41–42. Beeks (2–1) gave up five earned runs and recorded just two outs one day after giving up three earned runs and recording one out in an 8–7 loss. Diamondbacks lefty Eduardo Rodríguez had another good outing, giving up one run on four hits and three walks over 5 1/3 innings. He struck out five. The 32-year-old had a 1.98 ERA over 27 1/3 innings in June. Miami's Cal Quantrill gave up two runs on three hits and a walk over five innings, striking out five. Lake Bachar (4–0) pitched two scoreless innings of relief, and Ronny Henriquez handled the ninth for his third save. Ketel Marte's solo homer in the third put the Diamondbacks up 2–1. It was his 17th homer of the season. The Diamondbacks cut it to 6–4 in the bottom of the eighth, but Calvin Faucher struck out Jake McCarthy with runners on first and second to end the threat. Arizona's bullpen is one of the worst in baseball with a 5.22 ERA coming into Sunday's game. The Marlins return home to face the Minnesota Twins and RHP Joe Ryan (8–3, 2.86 ERA) on Tuesday. The Diamondbacks continue their homestand on Monday when RHP Ryne Nelson (4–2, 3.71) takes the mound against the San Francisco Giants and RHP Logan Webb (7–5, 2.52).

Angel Reese Tops 15 Rebounds for Record 4th Straight Game as Sky Beat Sparks 92-85
Angel Reese scored a season-high 24 points and became the first WNBA player with 15 or more rebounds in four straight games, finishing with 16 boards and leading the Chicago Sky to a 92–85 victory on Sunday over the Los Angeles Sparks, who retired Candace Parker's No. 3 jersey at halftime. Reese had 11 points in the fourth quarter and gave the Sky an 85–74 lead on a three-point play with 2 1/2 minutes to go. She had 19, 17, and 18 rebounds in her previous three games. She also had seven assists and two blocks on Sunday. Parker, a two-time MVP and Chicago native, played 13 seasons for the Sparks, two for the Sky, and one for the Las Vegas Aces. She won titles with the Sparks in 2016, the Sky in 2021, and the Aces in 2023, her final season. The Sky will also retire her jersey later this summer. Reese had a basket as Chicago got the last four points of the third quarter to pull within 62–61. She scored six straight points early in the fourth to help Chicago take the lead for good. Ariel Atkins added 20 points for Chicago (5–11). Kia Nurse scored 14 off the bench, Rachel Banham had 13, and Elizabeth Williams 12. Kelsey Plum led the Sparks (5–12) with 22 points, and Dearica Hamby added 20 points and 10 rebounds. Azura Stevens scored 17 points, and Emma Cannon had 15 off the bench. The Sky took a 40–34 halftime lead. Parker then took to the court to address the crowd before her jersey was raised to the rafters next to those of Sparks greats Lisa Leslie and Penny Toler. The Sparks shot 31 percent in the first half. A three-point play by Reese early in the third quarter gave Chicago a 48–36 advantage, but the Sparks responded with a 17–3 run to take a seven-point lead.
