Charlie Woods scores Top-10 finish at 49th Junior PGA Championships
The 16-year-old son of legendary golfer Tiger Woods carded a score of 5-under par in the third round on July 31, moving into a tie second place at 12-under for the tournament heading into the final round. On Friday, Woods wore the iconic Sunday red shirt and black trousers that his father always wore on the final day of competition. Ultimately, Woods concluded his final round tied for ninth place, finishing the tournament with an overall score of 9-under 276.
The final round saw Lunden Esterline from Andover, Kansas, continue to dominate and claim the trophy with a score of 19-under. He was followed by Giuseppe Puebla from Royal Palm Beach, Florida, who finished in second place with Tyler Mawhinney from Fleming Island, Florida, rounding out the top three.

Charlie Woods score, results after Round 4
Charlie Woods completed the 2025 Junior PGA Championship with a 3-over-par in the final round, bringing his total to 9-under 276 for the tournament, which placed him in a tie for 9th overall. Unfortunately, Woods did not secure an automatic spot on the Junior Ryder Cup team. Currently, he is ranked 20th in the American Junior Golf Association, making it unlikely for him to be chosen as a captain's pick.

A weird year for Happy Gilmore's funniest cameo star
The Pulse Newsletter 📣 | This is The Athletic's daily sports newsletter. Sign up here to receive The Pulse directly in your inbox. Good morning! Eventually, some putts will fall for you today. Of the dozens of celebrity cameos in 'Happy Gilmore 2,' I found Nelly Korda's to be the funniest. Most of the elite golfers who appeared in the film were playing themselves as, well, golfers. But there is Korda, the No. 1 player in women's golf. She appears on a parole board of sorts, denying the release of Shooter McGavin, Happy Gilmore's onetime nemesis and the former best player on a fictional golf tour, from a mental hospital. Also there: Nancy Lopez, who shares a page in the history books with Korda. Advertisement The throwaway cameo almost felt ironic in juxtaposition with this fascinating moment in her career. In 2024, nobody could touch Korda. Beginning with her second start of the year, in January, she reeled off five wins in a row, joining Lopez (1978) and Annika Sorenstam (2004, 2005) in a tiny club of five-in-a-row winners. The last of those five was Korda's second major title, at the Chevron Championship. She added two wins later on. Golf nuts have long appreciated Korda, her success and her unbelievable swing. Now 27, she's become a more mainstream star, a golf version of her pro-am partner, Caitlin Clark. Korda's 2025 has been funky, though. Today is the final round of the Women's Open, the fifth and last major of the ladies' season. Korda didn't really contend, but made the cut. That Korda (or any player) would finish the year majorless is not such a shock, but a bit more surprising is that she'll be winless altogether in 13 starts. Has Korda declined, then? A little, but we're grading on a ridiculous curve. Entering the Women's Open, Korda was averaging2.31 strokes gained on the field per round. That's not the 2.84-shot advantage she posted in 2024, but it's still a top-three figure on the LPGA Tour. For good reason, she still draws a crowd unlike anyone else on tour. I asked Gabby Herzig, who has covered Korda for The Athletic, what she makes of Nelly's season: 💬 Korda's season is basically the epitome of why professional golf is such an endless pursuit. You can win five consecutive titles, and then just a few months later, it can feel impossible to come out on top. But in this sport, the win percentage is miniscule. Looking at Korda's season, I still see five top-seven finishes, including two runner-ups, and zero missed cuts. One hot putting day or a few good bounces could easily have changed how we're discussing her season. Korda is still the best player in the world (I know Lottie Woad is on the rise, but she has a ways to go), and her winless season isn't an indicator of anything to me, other than how difficult it is to achieve excellence in this game. The golf gods will grant Korda parole from her winless streak soon enough. Connecticut Sun moving to Boston The Sun have reportedly been sold to Celtics minority owner Steve Pagliuca in a record $325 million deal that is set to see the franchise move from Connecticut to Boston as soon as 2027. The Athletic reported in March the Sun were exploring a sale, and it seemed like a foregone conclusion the team would wind up in Boston at some point. In response to yesterday's reports, however, the WNBA pumped the brakes on any relocation talks. Read our full report. Advertisement Speedway Classic suspended The Braves and Reds endured a two-hour-plus rain delay, played less than an inning and then shut down once again in the first MLB Speedway Classic at Bristol Motor Speedway last night. The game is scheduled to resume at 1 p.m. ET today. But it was a logistical nightmare for the much-anticipated showdown, which sold more than 85,000 tickets. At least Reds catcher Tyler Stephenson got to display his custom Ricky Bobby catching gear.

Luka Dončić signed a three-year, $165 million contract extension with the Lakers yesterday. It's a fresh start in LA. A fan who threw a green sex toy onto the court during a WNBA game Tuesday has been arrested. It happened again at a different game Friday night. Katie Ledecky continued her absurd run of dominance yesterday, claiming gold in a thrilling 800-meter freestyle final at the swimming world championships. She has won the event all 11 times she's competed at the Olympics and world championships. NWSL: Washington Spirit vs. Portland Thorns | 12:30 p.m. ET on ABC This is the game Meg Linehan picked in her Pulse takeover last Monday.

MLB: Tigers at Phillies | 7:10 p.m. ET on ESPN The Tigers had a lousy back half of July, but they remain on cruise control in the AL Central. They'll face a tough test in the form of the Phillies' Christopher Sánchez, who goes against newly acquired Tiger Charlie Morton. Get tickets to games like these here. What if college basketball ran conference realignment? Jim Root sorted all 364 teams to find out. Breaking for my usual esoteric ephemera to weigh in on a low-brow indulgence: Was 'Happy Gilmore 2' good? No. Was it stupid? Very yes. Was it also a Trojan horse of nostalgia from a time when bad-and-stupid movies were exactly what we all loved? Absolutely. This movie was terrible, but terrible in a way that meant I thoroughly enjoyed it. — Levi Weaver Fluto Shinzawa has an informative read about how and why some NHL players are choosing sleep optimization over alcohol consumption during the season A recent edition of The Morning reminded me that, oh right, overnight oats exist. So I reintroduced them this week, and my mornings have been less hectic and I stay full longer (I do 1/2 cup oats, 1/2c non-dairy milk, 1 tbsp peanut butter, 1 tbsp chia seeds, 1 scoop protein powder). — Torrey Hart Advertisement 'Expedition 33' is gonna win all the game-of-the-year awards. Second play-through loaded with fun foreshadowing. French existentialist fun, at least. — Jason Kirk Jason Jones explains how Gilbert Arenas, the former NBA guard with an unserious persona, is reacting to a serious situation. I once bought 'The Lost City of Z' by David Grann ('Killers of the Flower Moon'). As you do, I waited a decade before devouring it this week. I'm such a sucker for a good 'lost expedition' story, and this one lives up to its reputation. Just … don't Google the Amazon jungle diseases mentioned in here.

The streaming numbers are out for 'Happy Gilmore 2' and that's what we call a hole-in-one
The reviews on "Happy Gilmore 2" are mixed. The results are not. The sequel to Adam Sandler's 1996 comedy hit Netflix on July 25 and the numbers don't lie. According to Variety, 46.7 million viewers streamed the movie in just three days — making it the biggest U.S. opening weekend in Netflix history. It also hit a high-water mark for Sandler, who has been a key cog for the platform. The movie brings back Sandler in the lead role. Co-stars Julie Bowen and Christopher McDonald are back to reprise their roles as Virginia Venit, a PGA Tour publicist-turned romantic interest for Happy, and cocky pro golfer Shooter McGavin, respectively. The film includes a ton of pro golfers making cameos as well, including Scottie Scheffler, Rory McIlroy, Justin Thomas, Keegan Bradley, Rickie Fowler, Tony Finau, Collin Morikawa, Xander Schauffele, Jordan Spieth and Will Zalatoris from the PGA Tour, as well as Bryson DeChambeau and Brooks Koepka from LIV Golf. Legends of the game make appearances, too, such as Jack Nicklaus, Lee Trevino and John Daly. When asked, McDonald said he loved meeting many of the players, but one two-time Masters champ stood out. "He's a good man, Bubba Watson. I have known a few of these golf legends and legends-in-training," McDonald said. "But seeing them one-on-one, it's like: 'Oh, my God, that's Rory McIlroy. That's Bryson DeChambeau. That's Scottie Scheffler.' It was mind-blowing for me. And I came in on my days off just to hang out with them."
