Philadelphia Eagles Super Bowl repeat chances suffer major blow
The Philadelphia Eagles ' Super Bowl chances took a blow Sunday, less than a month before the start of the 2025 NFL season. The reigning champions will look to defend their title when the NFL returns to action in just under four weeks but they may have to do so without a key member of their offensive line. Left guard Landon Dickerson had to be helped off the field after suffering what appeared to be a right leg injury during the Eagles' open practice Sunday evening. The Pro Bowl guard was injured on a pass play and remained down on the field for several minutes, silencing the 50,000-strong crowd. The 26-year-old was unable to put any weight on the right leg before being helped to a cart and being transported inside. Dickerson is expected to undergo an MRI scan on his knee on Monday, Adam Schefter reported. Dickerson had been listed on the injury report on Saturday with a knee injury. He was not listed on the report on Sunday. He was replaced in the lineup by Brett Toth, who has also stepped in for the three-time Pro Bowler in previous absences. It comes as a blow for Nick Sirianni's team as they look to maintain their crown this season as Dickerson has proven to be a critical member of one of the NFL's best offensive lines in the past few seasons. Last year, Dickerson paved the way for Saquon Barkley during the star's record-breaking 2024 campaign, in which he rushed for 2,504 on the way to the Eagles' Super Bowl victory. Dickerson was a second-round pick in the 2021 NFL Draft out of the University of Alabama. He is a three-time Pro Bowl selection and has started 62 of 63 regular-season games played for the Eagles in his four-year NFL career. He also has started nine playoff games, including all four last season as Philadelphia won the Super Bowl. He has quickly established himself as an elite interior offensive lineman. Last season, he earned a 79.2 overall PFF grade, ranking 13th among 136 qualifying guards. The Eagles' injury report on Sunday listed wide receiver Elijah Cooks (shoulder), guard Kenyon Green (shoulder), long snapper Charley Hughlett (neck), running back Montrell Johnson Jr. (hamstring) and defensive tackle Byron Young (groin) as not practicing. The Eagles are slated to have joint practices scheduled with the Cleveland Browns this week. Dickerson's availability for those training sessions in currently unknown.

Son Heung-min's signing opens up a new frontier for LAFC and MLS in Asia
South Korean baseball fans have long been accustomed to organizing their weekends around MLB schedules – now it is time for soccer supporters to do the same with MLS. Son Heung-min has now started his two-year contract with Los Angeles FC, coming just after the attacker helped Tottenham Hotspur become the biggest club in his homeland (even if claims of close to 13 million fans are surely wildly overexaggerated) and one of the biggest in his home continent. Now it is the time to see what he can do in Los Angeles on the field and what the club can do off it. 'They've got 24 months to milk the hell out of it,' Sasi Kumar, a former Singapore international and founder of sports marketing agency Red Card Global, told the Guardian. 'The commercial opportunities are obvious, staring LAFC in the face.' Son has been the main man in Asian soccer for years: a golden boot and Puskas award recipient who lifted one of European football's biggest trophies as a captain of a major club just months ago. Having one of the biggest stars in the world's most popular league for so long was a matter of national pride in Korea and appealed across Asia. It fueled his superstardom. Son has helped to ensure that, now, pretty much every talented young Korean star wants to go straight to England's top tier. MLS does not enjoy anywhere close to the same stature – there has traditionally been little interest in the league in Asia, and it was barely mentioned as a possible destination for the 33-year-old. There has been a debate in Korea going back a few years when and where Son should go –a club like Barcelona was the one often mentioned. Even when the forward struggled for form and fitness last season, there were still options in Europe, where most expected him to stay. A move to Saudi Arabia was always unlikely. For a player who has never played in the K-League, going to a rival Asian competition may not have gone down well in his homeland where he has been the face of over 30 brands. Still, MLS was not, initially, a popular choice. 'At the beginning, the fans' reaction was divided as some wanted Son to stay in Europe and play in the Champions League for at least one more season,' said Lee Seung-mo, a Seoul-based author and journalist. 'However, after Son explained why he chose LAFC and MLS, now the majority of fans understand and support his decision.' Being based Stateside also makes sense ahead of the World Cup, likely to be Son's fourth and last appearance at the tournament. Lee admits that not all the fans who have watched Son in England will watch him in the US. 'It won't be 100% the same in MLS in terms of viewership as the Premier League has the most fans of any league but most Son fans will want to watch MLS.' Those years at the top of the game have made Son into such an icon that he can transcend any competition he plays in. 'His image cuts across different demographics, geography -everything,' said Kumar. 'Whenever Spurs played you got Asians from all of Asia supporting him, he's such a loveable character, you didn't need to be a Spurs fan to like him,' Sign up to Soccer with Jonathan Wilson Jonathan Wilson brings expert analysis on the biggest stories from European soccer after newsletter promotion LAFC has advantages. While MLS may not be the EPL, the USA is also not the UK. Economically, South Korea already has a strong connection with the US, sending almost 20 percent of exports in an export-based economy to the United States in 2024, compared to just one percent for Great Britain. 'The Korean market is so connected to the US; it is a huge market for Korean beauty products, electronics, cars, phones etc,' Kumar said. 'Son has provided a platform and opportunity to enter the market with a huge asset. The obvious thing for LA is to tour Asia and they should actively look in different markets for brand and content partnerships. LAFC's commercial team will be working overtime how to sell digital assets, image rights and work with global brands like Samsung and Kia.' Such Korean companies have always been involved in sports (the was –and, to a large extent, still is- based on corporate ownership and Hyundai has been hugely influential in the Korean Football Association over the years) and there should be plenty of knowhow on the opposite side. 'What is well known about American sports in general is that they are arguably the best in sports marketing, and I'm sure LAFC and MLS both will try their best in Korean market,' said Lee. The fact that LA have made such a big deal of the signing has gone down well. Steve Han is a LA-based Korean content lead for Fifa and host of Fairpoint podcast and has witnessed the excitement. 'At the introductory press conference, there were Korean journalists who attended with LAFC shirts on,' Han told the Guardian. 'For years, LAFC have already been one of the most well-branded clubs in MLS. Even the contents that the club pushed out so far have really got the fans excited. The stage is set for Son to put the icing on the cake now.'

Justin Rose claims FedEx St Jude Championship on third play-off hole
Justin Rose produced a sensational finish at the FedEx St Jude Championship with six birdies in his last final eight holes to win a play-off against US Open champion JJ Spaun. The Englishman, who at 45 became the oldest European to win on the PGA Tour in the modern era, looked out of it after a bogey at the 12th dropped him to 12 under, two off the pace with Tommy Fleetwood, world number one Scottie Scheffler and Spaun ahead of him. Advertisement But four birdies from the 14th catapulted him to the top of the leaderboard and he just missed a 13-footer at the last to win outright. He produced two more birdies in three play-off holes – one a clutch effort after Spaun had holed from distance – with the second from 14ft after Spaun was half that distance away proving decisive as his opponent's attempt to extend the contest raced past. The 2018 FedExCup Champion has won the @FedExChamp ! @JustinRose99 's 12th win comes at @TPCSouthwind . — PGA TOUR (@PGATOUR) August 10, 2025 'That was an amazing last 90 minutes. I never stopped believing,' Rose said in his post-round interview. 'I played unbelievable golf coming down the stretch and had so much fun with it. JJ dropped a bomb on me (at the second extra hole), it was a lot of fun. Advertisement 'When I bring my best I know I'm good enough to play against the best players in the world. This is going to be a fun one for us to celebrate.' The play-off was packed with drama from the start as Rose – who barely cleared the lake with his drive – gave himself an identical 13-foot putt to the one he missed to win the tournament, but it burned the edge of the cup. Playing the hole again, Rose hit to eight feet but Spaun recreated his US Open final green heroics with a monster birdie, forcing the Englishman to hold his nerve. The hole location was re-cut for the third attempt to avoid shadows and Spaun duly hit it to seven feet but Rose, who had lost his previous four play-offs including, like Spaun, to Rory McIlroy this year, dramatically turned the tables by holing his 14ft birdie and Spaun fired past. Advertisement Rose's joy meant more heartbreak for Fleetwood, who blew another chance to break his PGA Tour duck at the 162nd attempt with a poor finish. Tommy Fleetwood walks on the 18th green during the final round of the St Jude Championship George Walker IV/AP) The Ryder Cup team-mates had holidayed together in Portugal last week, but failed to spark each other into life in the final group. Fleetwood did not make a birdie until holing his longest putt of the week from 33 feet at the 12th to put him back in a share of the lead. Birdies at the 13th and 15th edged him two in front on 16 under, but as he was escaping with a par after chipping across and off the green with his third at the 16th, Spaun was tying the lead with a birdie at 17. Advertisement Fleetwood's weak attempt at a seven-foot par putt at the 17th never threatened and needing a birdie at the last just to make a play-off, he drove into a bunker and missed the green with his approach. 'I'm obviously going to be disappointed. There's a lot of positives to take but it won't feel like that right now,' said Fleetwood, whose 29th top-five PGA Tour finish is 11 more than any other player without a win over the last 40 years. 'I'm just going to look at what I feel like I could have done and how close it was.' Scheffler, without his regular caddie Ted Scott who returned home due to a family emergency, finished a shot outside the play-off after two birdies in his final three holes. Advertisement Jordan Spieth's Ryder Cup hopes were dealt a blow after he dropped out of the top 50 of FedEx Cup rankings and missed the cut for next week's penultimate event after dumping his approach to the last into the water, ending his season and, at 27th in the United States' rankings, likely his Ryder Cup hopes.
