Rocket Classic field 2025: Who is playing in PGA Tour's Detroit stop
Cam Davis is the undisputed king of the Rocket Classic. The Australian is the only person to ever win the tournament twice. It's also the only place he's ever won on the PGA Tour.
Davis will look for a third title and his second in a row at the 2025 Rocket Classic, when the PGA Tour returns to Detroit Golf Club for the seventh time June 26-29.

Though the tournament has only existed since 2019, it has already featured two playoffs.
In 2021, Davis defeated Tony Merritt and Joaquín Niemann to claim his first title. In 2023, Rickie Fowler birdied the first hole of the playoff to hold off Collin Morikawa and Adam Hadwin.
All prior champions of the tournament, with the exception of Bryson DeChambeau, who joined LIV Golf, have announced their participation in the tournament.
The PGA Tour has been announcing new entrants as we get closer to tournament time. Among the commitments is Ryan Brehm, from Mount Pleasant, who helped Michigan State win three Big Ten championships from 2004-08.

College World Series Schedule: Complete Saturday slate as LSU takes the field
LSU baseball begins play in Omaha for the 2025 College World Series on Saturday. Inside Charles Schwab Stadium, the Tigers face a familiar opponent from their SEC schedule. LSU and Arkansas, the betting favorites to win the national championship, close out the first round of games on Saturday following two on Friday. UCLA and Murray State open the second day with an afternoon first pitch. The winners and losers of those matchups will face off early next week. Advertisement The Tigers took the regular season series against Arkansas at Alex Box Stadium in late May but the Razorbacks are loaded with MLB talent. The game will certainly resemble a championship atmosphere with fans of both teams expected in droves. The Bruins made it to the Big Ten championship and have yet to lose a game in the NCAA Tournament. They play the Cinderella team in Murray State. After winning the Missouri Valley Conference, the Racers went 3-1 in the Oxford Regional then defeated Duke twice in the super regional. Here is the Saturday schedule for the College World Series. Game Three: UCLA vs Murray State Time: 1 p.m. CT TV Channel: ESPN Game Four: Arkansas vs LSU Time: 6 p.m. CT TV Channel: ESPN This article originally appeared on LSU Wire: College World Series Schedule Today: When does LSU play?

International player trying out at Broncos mandatory minicamp
The Denver Broncos are taking a look at another Australian-born player. Among the seven players trying out at mandatory minicamp this week is Patrick Murtagh, a 25-year-old tight end who was a decathlete growing up before later switching to Australian rules football. He was rostered by the Gold Coast Football Club from 2020-2022 before joining the NFL's international player pathway program in 2023. Advertisement Murtagh had a brief stint with the Detroit Lions early in 2023 that was cut short by a medical issue. He then went to training camp with the Jacksonville Jaguars in 2024, spending the regular season on injured reserve. The Jags waived the tight end this spring. The Broncos (and all 32 NFL teams) are allowed to carry an extra international player on the practice squad during the regular season. So if Denver signs a player like Murtagh and he ends up on the practice squad, he would not count against the 16-player limit. Teams also get an extra active roster spot for an international player during the offseason. Right now, Australian punter Jeremy Crawshaw is the team's designated international player, and he does not count against the 90-man offseason roster limit.

Veteran linebacker trying out for Broncos at mandatory minicamp
The list of seven players trying out for the Denver Broncos at mandatory minicamp this week includes Austin Ekeler's younger brother, an Australian tight end and a veteran inside linebacker. The linebacker is Milo Eifler, a 27-year-old defender who played college football at Washington and Illinois. He entered the league as an undrafted free agent with the New York Jets in 2021. Eifler has spent time with five NFL teams since then, most recently spending part of the 2024 season with the Arizona Cardinals. Advertisement Eifler (6-1, 228 pounds) appeared in 13 games with the Washington Football Team/Commanders from 2021-2022, totaling four tackles on defense. He also played 259 snaps on special teams while playing in D.C. Eifler has appeared in 17 regular season games in his career, but he has never started. The Broncos are presumably giving him a look as a potential special teams contributor. Minicamp will wrap up on Thursday. Related: These 25 celebrities are Broncos fans.
