JR Motorsports driver Justin Allgaier has reacted to his wreck with Kris Wright during the NASCAR Xfinity Series race at Texas Motor Speedway.
Allgaier had led 99 laps of the race today and won stage 1. However, while attempting to lap Wright in his efforts to challenge Kyle Larson for the win, the pair collided. Wright moved up slightly, leading to Allgaier clipping his rear, sending them into a spin.
The JR Motorsports driver, who currently leads the Xfinity Series standings, was cleared by the medical team following the race. While speaking to the media, he admitted that it was his fault.
"The hard part is, ultimately it falls on my shoulders," Allgaier said.

Justin Allgaier, driver of the #7 Jarrett Logistics Chevrolet, looks on during qualifying for the NASCAR Xfinity Series Andy's Frozen Custard 300 at Texas Motor Speedway on May 02, 2025 in Fort Worth, Texas."We'd about gotten crashed a couple laps before the green-flag stop there, and I think they had some damage and he (Wright) was having a bit of a tough time with his race car, and I'm trying to catch back to the 88 and trying to push and ultimately put myself in a bad position...
"Kyle and I had a great battle, and I was having a lot of fun with it. Obviously, the guy's ultra-fast in anything that he drives. ... I think probably the most disappointing part about today is that it's my mom's birthday. I would love to get a trophy and celebrate her birthday with that, but instead I'm standing here talking to you guys."
Larson, who had stepped in last minute for Connor Zilisch, secured the victory. Reflecting on the race, Larson explained:
"It was a lot of survival, I felt like in that race. I got in some wrecks, the balance we had to work on quite a bit. So, it was fun. I felt like if I could ever get the lead, I could stretch it out, but I couldn't get by Justin [Allgaier]. He was running where I needed to be.
"Thanks to JRM for letting me come run this thing here today. Obviously, I wish Connor was in the car, but it means a lot that they thought of me to call up to run this thing."

Adam Hadwin's Wife, Jessica, Hysterically Reacts to Trump-Musk Breakup
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 recent back-and-forth on social media between US President Donald Trump and his former main supporter, Elon Musk, has even reached the world of golf. The popular wife of PGA Tour pro Adam Hadwin has been one of those to react, and, true to her style, she has done so in a hilarious way. Jessica Hadwin used her X account, where she is followed by more than 45,000 fans, to share some jokes about one of the main current narratives in American politics: "Watching the golf. Watching a bromance breakup live on twitter," she posted, using funny emojis to show that her attention was divided between the two topics. Watching the golf 🙂↔️ Watching a bromance breakup live on twitter 🙂↕️ — Jessica Hadwin (@jessicahadwin) June 5, 2025 No less popular journalist Claire Rogers reacted to Jessica's post, also with her own unique sense of humor: "It's giving Brooks Bryson 2021," Rogers posted. It's giving brooks Bryson 2021 — claire rogers (@kclairerogers) June 5, 2025 After course, she is referencing the now infamous beef between Bryson DeChambeau and Brooks Koepka. Their feud reached its peak a few years ago before both players left the PGA Tour for LIV Golf, and was the talk of the sport for quite some time. Interestingly, the two golfers eventually put their issues behind them. It remains to be seen whether that will happen between Trump and Musk. Adam Hadwin's wife is very active on social media, especially X. She frequently posts about various topics, offering glimpses into her daily life with the one-time PGA Tour winner. Her unique sense of humor and wit when interacting with other X users has made her a fan favorite and arguably the most-followed wife on tour. Adam and Jessica Hadwin met through a dating app in 2014. According to People, their relationship has only grown stronger since then, and they tied the knot in 2017, the same year Hadwin won the Valspar Championship — his only PGA Tour victory to date. The couple welcomed their first daughter, Maddox, in 2020.

After the first two rounds, the 37-year-old had a 5-under 36-hole score, which should easily allow him to make the cut. Hadwin carded a 67 on Thursday, with four birdies and a bogey. The next day, he carded a 68 with three birdies and a bogey. More Golf: Canadian Open: Rory McIlroy Stands Firm on Skipping Media with Harsh Retort

Rory McIlroy Posts Worst PGA Tour Finish of Career at Canadian Open
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. Rory McIlroy rode the struggle bus Friday at TPC Toronto at Osprey Valley for the second round of the RBC Canadian Open. Throughout McIlroy's illustrious career, the worst 36-hole finish on the PGA Tour career was tied for 142nd, according to Underdog Golf With two holes to play during Friday's second round, he sits in 150th place out of 153 golfers. On Thursday, he shot a 1-over 71, but things fell apart for him on Day 2 of the tournament. McIlroy was 9-over through 14 holes before anything went his way. The Northern Irishman opened his day with four straight pars before he made a quadruple bogey at the par-4 5th. He hit his tee shot 316 yards into the right native area off the tee, then sailed the green on his second shot into the woods left of the green. McIlroy took a drop and hit it off the front of the green, leaving himself 56 yards to the hole. On his sixth shot, the ball landed almost eight feet from the hole, and McIlroy proceeded to two-putt from there. It was a disastrous hole for him, resulting in a very unlikely snowman on the card. CALEDON, ONTARIO - JUNE 06: Rory McIlroy of Northern Ireland waits to putt on the tenth green during the second round of the RBC Canadian Open 2025 at TPC Toronto at Osprey Valley on June... CALEDON, ONTARIO - JUNE 06: Rory McIlroy of Northern Ireland waits to putt on the tenth green during the second round of the RBC Canadian Open 2025 at TPC Toronto at Osprey Valley on June 06, 2025 in Caledon, Ontario. More Photo byThe round did not get better for him. He made bogey at the par-4 8th, and with a par at 9, he turned in 40 strokes. The 5-time major winner added another bogey and a double-bogey at 10 and 11 to put him at 8-over on the day. McIlroy dropped another shot at the par-4 13th to drop to 9-over on the day and 10-over on the tournament. His first birdie came at the par-4 15th, and the 36-year-old desperately needed it for morale sake. But this tweet summed that up rather well. Rory McIlroy birdie on hole 15 — Max (@MaxFromKO35) June 6, 2025 The Northern Irishman lost shots in all main strokes gained categories, which is entirely unheard of for him. His driver struggles continued, as he lost -2.233 strokes off the tee through 36 holes. McIlroy hit only 12 fairways and 17 greens all week. He lost -4.045 in strokes gained approach to the green, his worst statistical area of the tournament. McIlroy lost -1.905 around the green and -2.415 on the greens. Overall, he lost -10.683 in strokes gained total. This performance is highly abnormal for the No. 2 ranked player in the world. Guys like McIlroy usually find ways to bounce back, but it was not his week in Canada. It will mark the first time he missed the cut in 10 events this season. His worst finish before this one was a T47 at Quail Hollow for the PGA Championship. McIlroy's game has not been the same since his driver was deemed nonconforming at the second major. It seems the reigning Masters winner is still adjusting to a new big stick. He continues to fight his swing, which makes next week at Oakmont for the U.S. Open seem daunting. Maybe this disgusting performance will light a fire in him ahead of the third major. After seeming to be the guy to beat after he won the career grand slam at the Masters, things have fallen off a cliff for McIlroy.
