FootJoy release colorful Legends Series Drop 1 footwear
The first Legends Series footwear is a limited-edition version of the Packard ($245 at select retailers and footjoy.com) that features a floral outsole along with hand-selected, premium leather. If it has been a dreary start to spring in your area and watching the season's first major in Georgia didn't bring enough colorful jolts for you, these shoes should do the trick.
Like the standard Packard, the Legends Series Drop 1 edition features a VersaTrax+ outsole. It has replaceable spikes, along with ground-grabbing traction elements with varying levels of firmness, so they can help to keep your feet firmly in place regardless of what type of ground you encounter when you swing.
The OrthoLite EcoPlush footbed helps to enhance comfort while the leather upper repels water. In fact, the Legends Series Drop 1 comes with a two-year waterproof warranty.
According to FootJoy, three more Legends Series shoes are coming, one in May, another in June and the last one on July 5.

FedEx Cup standings 2025: PGA Tour rankings after first playoff event
The first FedEx Cup playoff event of 2025 is in the books and Justin Rose came away with a thrilling win at the FedEx St. Jude Championship that needed its own playoff to be completed. Rose surged past Tommy Fleetwood down the stretch of the back nine in regulation and then outlasted U.S. Open champion J.J. Spaun to emerge with the trophy. The event in Memphis, Tennessee also served as a cut down for the BMW Championship in Owings Mills, Maryland beginning on Thursday, Aug. 14, which serves as the second playoff event before the Tour Championship in East Lake, Georgia. The top 50 in the FedEx Cup points standings after the conclusion of the FedEx St. Jude Championship qualified to play in the BMW Championship. Only the top 30 in FedEx Cup points after the BMW Championship will play in the Tour Championship, which starts Aug. 21. The player with the lowest stroke total over 72 holes at the Tour Championship will win the FedExCup and earn a bonus of $10 million. Scottie Scheffler still holds a commanding lead, and Rory McIlroy – even though he chose to skip the St. Jude Championship – remains second in points this year. Here's a look at the current FedEx Cup standings heading into the PGA Tour's second playoff event at the BMW Championship in Owings Mills, Maryland: FedEx Cup playoff standings Note: These standings reflect results through the 2025 FedEx St. Jude Championship in Memphis, Tennessee.

Who is Victoria Mboko? What to know about teenage Canadian tennis star
There's a new Canadian tennis star who announced her presence on the worldwide stage this month ahead of the 2025 U.S. Open. Teenager Victoria Mboko pulled off a stunning run to capture her first WTA title on Thursday, Aug. 7, defeating four former Grand Slam champions after entering the bracket as a wild card at the 2025 National Bank Open in Montreal. She beat Naomi Osaka in a thrilling final, which featured Mboko storming back after losing the first set. Mboko became the second-youngest player in WTA history to beat four Grand Slam champions in one event, with wins over Sofia Kenin, Coco Gauff and Elena Rybakina as well. Only Serena Williams accomplished the feat at a younger age during the 1999 U.S. Open. Here's what to know about Mboko now that she's suddenly a player to watch at the U.S. Open, which is the final Grand Slam on the 2025 tennis calendar: US OPEN: Prize money pool increases to record $90M, largest in tennis history How old is Victoria Mboko? Mboko is 18 years old. She turns 19 on Aug. 26, two days after the 2025 U.S. Open begins in New York. Victoria Mboko's parents, background Mboko was born in Charlotte, North Carolina after her parents, Cyprien Mboko and Godee Kitadi, moved to the United States in 1999 to get away from political turmoil and unrest in the Democratic Republic of Congo, according to the WTA. The family moved to Toronto when Mboko was a small child. Mboko is the youngest of four siblings and they all played tennis growing up. Victoria Mboko's ranking Mboko started the 2025 season ranked No. 333 in the world and it has been an incredible rise since then. She is now ranked No. 24 in the world in women's singles after winning the Montreal Open, with a 53-9 record in 2025. She entered the tournament ranked No. 85 in the world. Did Naomi Osaka snub Victoria Mboko? Osaka took some criticism on social media following her National Bank Open final loss to Mboko because she didn't mention Mboko during a brief speech at the trophy ceremony. Mboko, on the other hand, thanked Osaka "for an incredible match. I've always looked up to her when I was really little, so it's always great to play with such an amazing player like you." Osaka elected to skip her post-match news conference, but she later clarified her on-court comments in a transcript from the WTA and apologized in a social media post, referencing some awkward trophy ceremony speeches that didn't go well for her previously. "Thanks Montreal it's been a really great run. I also want to say sorry and congratulations to Victoria," Osaka wrote on Threads. "You played a great match and have an amazing career ahead! I realize I didn't congratulate you on the court. Honestly I was in a daze and I was so focused on not having the same speech as (Indian Wells) 2018 final or the Jenny/Jennifer situation that I tried to make my speech as short as possible." Is Victoria Mboko playing Cincinnati Open? No. Mboko and Osaka both announced after their Montreal Open final that they would be withdrawing from the Cincinnati Open. The tournament is already underway. Mboko previously revealed she had injured her wrist during her semifinal match in Montreal and underwent an MRI. She told reporters she was likely to skip Cincinnati as a precaution. Mboko is still expected to play at the 2025 U.S. Open, which begins on Sunday, Aug. 24.
