Johnson started his career in 1998 and has played a total of 520 events, earning a total of almost $50 million. He is 49 years old and is quickly approaching 50 years of age. With that in mind, Johnson shared his perspective on his upcoming career during press conference at the John Deere Classic on Wednesday.
"I hope I have the option of coming back here for the foreseeable future. I don't know what the future will hold." Johnson said when asked about whether he will be leaving the current tour.
"Honestly, going back to the beginning of that, a lot of what is going to transpire next year is going to be determined by the next so many odd weeks out here." He added.

Johnson has been suffering from elbow issues. He wears the KT tape to help with the pain of tennis elbow. So, he also adds physical condition as another factor in deciding his future career trajectory.

"I pay attention probably now more so to the physical side of me more so than the technical side of me. And I don't mind that," he continued.
"It's just the evolution of the game and the evolution of where I'm at as a pro. I've got a great team, great plan, great plot as to how to navigate that."
"If I can keep coming back here and playing, I'm not going to come back here necessarily just to play, I want to come back here to compete. That's what I am, first and foremost." Johnson added.

Comcast Awaits NBA Boost as Peackock Losses Hit $10 Billion
A seasonal dearth of live sports content contributed to a mixed bag for Comcast's streaming service, as Peacock subscribers remained flat at 41 million, while losses narrowed to $101 million in the second quarter of 2025. While that marked a not-insignificant improvement compared to the $348 million hit the platform took in the year-ago period, Comcast's latest results pushed Peacock's cumulative losses past the $10 billion DTC service boosted revenue by 18% to $1.2 billion in the April-June period, and Comcast executives on this morning's earnings call said they were confident that NBC Sports' new NBA rights package will drive subscriber growth at the unit. Two weeks ago Peacock upped the monthly fees for both its ad-supported and commercial-free plans by $3 per month.'The impact of this price increase, combined with [our] strong upfront results … helped position us as we launch the NBA,' said Comcast president Mike Cavanagh, who went on to note that the league's return to NBC will trigger 'higher sports programming expenses' in the fourth quarter and beyond. NBC's 11-year pact with the league will cost it $2.45 billion per season, although the company believes that the positive impact on advertising revenue and Peacock sign-ups should go a long way toward diluting those the sleepy sports calendar did its usual job of throttling Peacock's momentum on the customer-acquisition front, the losses at Comcast's legacy cable unit were similarly predictable. The operator ended the quarter with 11.8 million video customers, which marked a sequential loss of 325,000 hook-ups and a year-over-year defection of 1.43 million subs. Over the past 12 months Comcast has lost another 11% of its pay-TV base to the ravages of cord-cutting, a churn rate that was only slightly less vertiginous than the 12% hit the company took in Q2 defections have really piled up in recent years, with Comcast shedding 3.21 million video customers, or 21% of its base, since the analogous period in 2023, while nearly one-third (31%) of its subs have dropped the bundle in the last 36 months. Five years ago at this time, Comcast had 20.4 million video customers; since then, 8.6 million have ditched their traditional cable reported its latest round of cable losses just days after Charter managed to reduce its own quarterly churn rate to -5%. Media revenue rose 2% to $6.44 billion, as Peacock's intake helped offset the impact of a 7% decline on the domestic advertising front. Sales at the stateside media channels were down $143 million from the year-ago period, to $1.85 closed out its 2025-26 upfront cycle with what it characterized as 'record' advanced commitments from advertisers, with the new NBA inventory contributing to a 20% boost in new clients. The media unit saw unprecedented demand in this year's bazaar, as marketers scrambled to stake out a claim in NBC's sports portfolio, which in the next year alone will feature the Super Bowl, the Milano-Cortina Winter Olympics and the FIFA World Cup on the Spanish-language outlet Telemundo. Comcast said Thursday that Peacock sales represented over one-third of the company's upfront dollar in the call, Comcast reiterated that the spinoff of the Versant cable channels should wrap by the end of this year or the start of 2026. The Versant transaction cost the parent company $110 million on the quarter. Meanwhile, executives were characteristically mum on the recent chatter that Comcast is considering the launch of a new cable channel devoted to sports—a development that's begun brewing just four years after NBCSN was shuttered. While the idea is in the larval stage, the upshot is that the new entity would serve as a means for NBCU to simulcast live sports that are otherwise exclusive to the broadband front, Comcast lost 226,000 domestic internet subscribers in the quarter, besting consensus forecasts of -257,000. Overall revenue at the Philadelphia-based media giant increased 2% to $30.3 billion, ahead of forecasts for $29.8 billion, while adjusted earnings per share improved 3% to $1.25, topping projections for $ grew 1% to $10.3 billion.

Bengals expected to sign tight end Noah Fant
CINCINNATI (AP) — Tight end Noah Fant is expected to sign with the Cincinnati Bengals. The team has not announced the signing, but coach Zac Taylor said before Thursday's practice 'we potentially have a good signing there" when asked about reports of a deal. ESPN reported the sides were working on a one-year contract. 'You've got a player that's really a plus player in both the run and the pass. At the point of attack blocking, back side of blocking. Protection, can help you. Also really explosive as a receiver," Taylor said about Fant. "Great size, great explosiveness, really good hands. Tough to bring down. We really feel good about where our tight end room will be.' Fant visited the Bengals last week after being released by the Seattle Seahawks on July 20. He had 48 receptions for 500 yards and a touchdown in 14 games last season. Fant also visited New Orleans and Miami after his trip to Cincinnati. The addition of Fant will give quarterback Joe Burrow a solid tight end duo. Mike Gesicki is expected to the starter. Fant will be going into his seventh season. He was a first-round pick by the Denver Broncos in 2019 and spent three seasons there before going to Seattle. ___ AP NFL: Joe Reedy, The Associated Press

Highlights from Day 8 of Bears training camp
The Chicago Bears were back at Halas Hall for their eighth practice of training camp, where there were plenty of notable observations and highlights. The Bears passing offense put on a clinic in what head coach Ben Johnson previewed would be the longest practice to date, and it certainly was an intense session. Quarterback Caleb Williams and the starting offense thrived in the passing game, where he connected with rookie Luther Burden III and veteran Olamide Zaccheaus throughout practice. Burden had a monster performance, connecting with all three quarterbacks, and it's clear he's hitting his stride on his second full day of practice. With fans and media in attendance, there were plenty of highlights from this padded practice, including Williams' big day, Burden's array of plays, Zaccheaus showing off and Rome Odunze getting in on the action.
