Controversial Olympic skier Eileen Gu in ‘very terrible' accident while training
American freestyle skiing star Eileen Gu said she was injured in a 'very terrible accident' Friday while training in New Zealand, according to the South China Morning Post. Gu — who resumed training last month after being injured at the Winter X Games in January — explained in a post on Weibo, a Chinese social media platform, that she was flown to Christchurch Saturday for medical imaging. She did not explain the extent of her injury. According to South China Morning Post, eyewitnesses said Gu appeared to be seriously injured and was taken to the hospital on a stretcher. 4 Eileen Gu poses during the awarding ceremony of freestyle skiing women's freeski halfpipe at Zhangjiakou Medals Plaza of the Winter Olympics in Zhangjiakou, north China's Hebei Province, February 18, 2022. Xinhua News Agency via Getty Images 'Unfortunately, a very terrible accident occurred yesterday due to human error,' Gu, 21, wrote. 'I hope I can return to the snow soon, but I'm still waiting for confirmation from the expert team.' The two-time Olympic champion explained that it is 'dangerous to be interrupted' and cautioned not to film her during her training sessions. 'I have to concentrate fully during training, especially when I am preparing to start, as it's very dangerous to be interrupted,' Gu said. 'I also have to focus on picturing and imagining the moves while on the cable car. 'In order to save time, I don't have lunch breaks and try to use the bathroom as little as possible. So please don't record or take photos while I'm training.' 4 Eileen Gu competes during the Women's Freeski Halfpipe Final at the 2024/25 FIS Snowboard & Freeski Halfpipe World Cup at Secret Garden on December 7, 2024 in Zhangjiakou, Hebei Province of China.

Rory McIlroy Hints at More Changes to FedEx Cup Tour Championship Format
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. The Tour Championship will tee off Thursday, with 30 of the best players in the world vying for the season-long title where Rory McIlroy seeks his fourth FedEx Cup title at East Lake. Scottie Scheffler is the favorite, fresh off his win at the BMW Championship. McIlroy is the second favorite, followed by Tommy Fleetwood, Russell Henley and Ludvig Aberg. The 2025 Tour Championship is taking on a new format. All players will start level, unlike recent years. Previously, the points leader would begin the tournament at 10-under, second place at 8-under, with each place after that starting one stroke further back until you reach even par. Fans and golfers alike voiced their displeasure with that system. But apparently, McIlroy was not among them. "I'm maybe part of the minority. I didn't hate the starting strokes," McIlroy told reporters Tuesday. "I thought that the player that played the best during the course of the season should have had an advantage coming in here. But the majority of people just didn't like the starting strokes. "I was on the PAC when we were trying to go through that, and really it was just a way to try to simplify the advantage that the top players were going to get over the course of the week instead of Steve Sands doing calculations on a white board," the Northern Irishman joked.

(Photo by Kevin C. Cox/Getty Images) More Kevin C. Cox/Getty Images With all players now starting at even par, anyone can win. McIlroy clearly feels that format is not the fairest way to determine a season champion. But as a member of that PAC (Player Advisory Council), another format was brought to the forefront. "Look, there was a lot of other stuff on the table. Match play was on the table, and that got canned for this year. That might be brought back up in the conversation for next year or the year after," said McIlroy. It remains to be seen how long the new, current system will be used. But if someone who barely finished inside the top 30 after the BMW wins the FedEx Cup, leaving stars like Scheffler and McIlroy empty-handed, another change is not hard predict. Determining a season-long champion since the inception of the FedEx Cup has long been up for debate. But McIlroy is just going to roll with whatever comes. "I don't know if it's the best format, but it's the one that we have for this week." More Golf: PGA Tour 2026 Schedule Revealed With One Major Shake-Up

Jake Paul will fight Gervonta Davis in exhibition bout with massive size disparity

It had long been rumored that Paul was going to fight heavyweight Anthony Joshua, although it appears that fight has fallen through.

'Canelo only fights real fighters,' Alalshikh said in a statement. 3 Expect Gervonta 'Tank' Davis to attempt to use spped to his advantage in this fight. Getty Images This fight echoes a similar bout that took place in 2021, when Jake's brother, Logan Paul, fought Floyd Mayweather in an exhibition. Logan weighed 189 1/2 pounds in that fight, while Mayweather weighed in at 155. Davis, 30-0-1, is coming off a 12-round decision win over Lamont Roach Jr. at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn. 3 Jake Paul will have a massive advantage in the size aspect of this fight against GerVonta Davis. Getty Images He also previously knocked out Ryan Garcia in April 2023. Paul is coming off wins over Tyson and Julio Caesar Chavez Jr., 39 — a June decision for which he weighed in at 199.4 pounds.
