Austen Truslow edges Luke Poulter in U.S. Open qualifier playoff
June 3 - Austen Truslow defeated Luke Poulter in a two-man playoff Tuesday for the fourth and final U.S. Open qualifying spot at Emerald Dunes Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Fla.
Play was suspended due to inclement weather on Monday night, extending the drama with four spots on the line for qualifiers to earn entry into the 2025 U.S. Open at Oakmont from June 12-15.
Justin Hicks (65-68), Philip Barbaree Jr. (69-64) and amateur Frankie Harris (66-67) all finished 11 under through 36 holes to qualify for this season's third major.
Truslow's game is distinguished on the course in part by his one-handed chipping method.
Truslow, 29, and Poulter, a 21-year-old junior at the University of Florida and son of LIV Golf's Ian Poulter, finished tied at 10-under and went to a sudden-death playoff.
Truslow shot 68-66 and when play resumed Tuesday, Poulter (69-65) carded three birdies to force the playoff. Truslow became the 47th and final qualifier for the U.S. Open and Poulter will serve as an alternate.
Truslow qualified for the 2023 U.S. Open and missed the cut at 5 over with rounds of 72 and 73 at Los Angeles Country Club.
Since turning pro in 2015, Truslow has competed in eight PGA Tour events and made the cut just once. He has six starts this year on the Asian Tour with one finish in the top 30 (T29 at the New Zealand Open in February).

Bruins tab former player Marco Sturm as new head coach
June 5 - The Boston Bruins hired Marco Sturm as their new head coach Thursday, filling the final vacant position in the NHL. Sturm, 46, will be a head coach for the first time in the league. The Bruins punched their ticket to the playoffs in eight consecutive seasons before limping to an Atlantic Division-worst 33-39-10 record in 2024-25. Boston replaced head coach Jim Montgomery after 20 games on Nov. 19, with interim head coach Joe Sacco finishing the season with a 25-30-7 mark. Sturm said he welcomes the opportunity to preside over a team he represented from 2005-10. "I'm incredibly honored to be named head coach of the Boston Bruins," Sturm said. "I want to thank Charlie Jacobs and the Jacobs family, (Bruins president) Cam Neely, and (general manager) Don Sweeney for trusting me with this opportunity. Boston has always held a special place in my heart, and I know how much this team means to the city and to our fans. I've felt that passion as a player, and I can't wait to be behind the bench and feel it again. I'm excited to get to work and do everything I can to help this team succeed." Sweeney credited Sturm's attention to defensive hockey as one of the reasons for his hiring. "Throughout this process, our goal was to identify a coach who could uphold our strong defensive foundation while helping us evolve offensively," Sweeney said. "We were also looking for a communicator and leader -- someone who connects with players, develops young talent, and earns the respect of the room." Sturm has coached Ontario of the American Hockey League for the past three seasons, guiding the Reign to the playoffs in all three campaigns. Sturm totaled 487 points (242 goals, 245 assists) in 938 career games with the San Jose Sharks, Bruins, Los Angeles Kings, Washington Capitals, Vancouver Canucks and Florida Panthers. He was traded from the Sharks to the Bruins as part of the Joe Thornton deal on Nov. 30, 2005. Sturm is Germany's all-time leader in NHL games played. --Field Level Media

NFL fans demand their teams sign female flag football star
A women's flag football star has caught the attention of NFL fans after showing off her hugely impressive arm strength. Ava Hanson, the starting quarterback for Wellington High School's flag football team, left NFL fanbases begging for her to sign after leaving them stunned with her display at the Florida state championships last month. In a video posted by user legendaryproductions727 on TikTok, Hanson can be seen dropping back before delivering a roughly 40-yard bomb right in stride to a receiver. The quarterback's Wellington teammate, Avery Schroeder, then scampered into the end zone as the crowd went wild. The impressive play has earned 2.5million views on TikTok - and has plenty of NFL fans asking their team to sign the talented passer. 'I've seen enough welcome to the Atlanta falcons blonde QB,' one wrote. ''She busy? Dolphins need a new QB,' a second added. 'On behalf of the Dallas Cowboys we'd like to welcome you and discuss possible contractual terms,' a third chimed in. And a fourth said: 'Both of York NOW!!!' While fans of those teams may not get their wish, it's possible that they could see the star passer at the upcoming Olympics. Flag football will be part of the Games for the first time in 2028 when they take place in LA. And the sport will feature both men's and women's divisions. However, before any shot at the Olympic stage, Hanson, a senior at the Palm Beach County school, is set to take her impressive skills to the collegiate level. In April, Hanson committed to playing for the Hendrix Warriors - a private liberal arts college in Conway, Arkansas - under head coach Doug Peterson. She had also attracted offers from Daytona State College, University of Mount Olive in North Carolina, and Midland University in Nebraska. The gunslinger threw for 3694 yards and 59 touchdowns for Wellington throughout this past season. Hanson and Wellington narrowly missed out on claiming glory at the state championships, which were held at the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' AdventHealth Training Center on May 8-10. They were narrowly beaten in the 4A final by the Alonso Ravens - a Tampa area school - in a devastating 21-20 overtime defeat.
