Rockies Fans Will Be Left Crying at This Insane Scottie Scheffler Stat
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. Summer is in full swing as the Major League Baseball season heats up. But the MLB is not the only thing getting warm. Scottie Scheffler, the world's best golfer, continued his torrid pace on Sunday. Scheffler defended his title at the Memorial on Sunday. In doing so, he joined Tiger Woods as the only players to repeat at Muirfield Village Golf Club. This was Scheffler's third victory in last month on the PGA Tour. He crushed the field at the CJ Cup Byron Nelson a few weeks ago. Scheffler then won the PGA Championship going way, winning by five strokes. Now, he has three titles under his belt since May 2nd. That happens to be the same amount of victories by the Colorado Rockies during that same stretch. The big difference; the Rockies have played 28 games over that span. Scheffler has played in four tournaments. It is difficult to beat a field of 100+ golfers any given week. Never mind, dominate and win three times in less than a month.

(Photo by) MoreIt might be equally difficult for an MLB team to lose 25 of 28 games. But that is what has happened to the Rockies. Last year, the Chicago White Sox set the MLB record for most losses in a single season ever. They finished 41-121 during their 2024 campaign. The Rockies are on pace to break that record. While Scheffler was winning The Memorial, the Rockies were losing their eighth straight game. They are now 9-50 through the first two-plus months of the season. That puts them on pace to win just 25 games in 2025, which would shatter the record set by the White Sox. The Rockies do not have a single player with double-digit home runs yet. As a team, they are hitting just .215, which is by all metrics, atrocious. Their pitching is not much better. Their team ERA is 5.59, second worst in the majors. Only the Athletics are worse (5.71). While the Rockies embody the worst baseball has to offer, Scheffler is clearly the best golfer in the world. With Sunday's victory at The Memorial, Scheffler won his 16th career PGA Tour tournament. He has the fourth shortest span of time between winning his first and 16th event. Only legends Sam Snead, Jack Nicklaus, and Tiger Woods accomplished that faster. Scottie Scheffler has already won three majors, and will go for his fourth in a couple of weeks at Oakmont, site of the U.S. Open. The Rockies will undoubtedly win more games than Scheffler tournaments by the nature of the sport. But the fact that a golfer can win as many tournaments over a month as a baseball team speaks volumes, on both fronts.

California girls track star gets disqualified from state championships over celebration
The California state track and field championships were under increased scrutiny because of a transgender athlete who participated in and won the girls' high jump and triple jump events. A separate controversy flew underneath the radar, and it had to do with the varsity girls 400 finals. Sophomore Clara Adams, of North Salinas High School, finished in second place in the prelims and came off the starting line quickly in the finals and ran her way to a first-place finish, or so she thought. Adams celebrated with her father after winning the race. She took a fire extinguisher from her father and sprayed her shoes with it, alluding to her being on fire, the Monterey Herald reported. Clara's father, David, said the celebration was done away from opponents. "She wasn't disrespecting anyone," he told the outlet. The California Interscholastic Federation (CIF) determined that Adams' celebration was unsportsmanlike, and Adams' state championship was taken away. She was also disqualified from the meet and lost an opportunity to compete in the 200-meter race as well. David Adams told the outlet that the CIF's decision was protested and said he felt like the disqualification was "racially motivated." Clara Adams is Black. The decision was upheld. "It's a very unfortunate event," Alan Green told the Monterey Herald. "We are all heartbroken. Clara ran an incredible 400 race and is the fastest 400-meter girl in the state. "She was trying to have some fun at the finish line after the 400. It was interpreted as unsportsmanlike. What an incredible season and run. It's unfortunate." Clara Adams said afterward she felt like she was "robbed" and was "in shock." Fox News Digital reached out to the CIF for comment. Adams finished in first place in the 400-meter dash at the Central Coast Section Championships and finished first in three races at the Pacific Coast Athletic League Masters Meet last month.

Houston Astros look vulnerable in the AL West. Is anyone ready to dethrone them?
Slowly but surely, the stars of Houston's 2017 World Series-winning team have scattered about in the years since. George Springer is in Toronto now, Alex Bregman in Boston and Carlos Correa in Minnesota. Justin Verlander pitches for San Francisco. Jose Altuve and Lance McCullers Jr. are still with the Astros, but it feels like it's only a matter of time before Houston's dominance of the AL West comes to an end.
