Bryson DeChambeau Makes Leukemia Survivor's Dream Come True With VIP Golf Getaway
Big-hearted pro golfer Bryson DeChambeau made a 14-year-old leukemia patient's dream come true — flying brave Evan Hayes and his family to Texas for the VIP treatment of a lifetime!
The Tennessee teen, who's battled leukemia since he was 6, got the surprise of his life when Bryson not only invited him to his Grapevine home, but also gave him the run of the place!
The golf-loving youngster chipped balls alongside the PGA champ on Bryson's backyard putting green, toured his personal gym and trophy room, and even scored a full golf outfit right from the pro's closet — plus autographed balls and gear.

'He bought us lunch, dinner, put us up in a hotel, and paid for our flights,' says Evan's mom, Stephanie. 'I can't even begin to explain what an amazing person Bryson DeChambeau is!'
The emotional high point? A round of golf at the Grapevine Golf Course, where Evan teed off with his idol and watched in awe as the star stopped to greet nearly every fan who recognized him.
'He's so humble,' Stephanie adds of Bryson. 'He is such a positive guy and he made Evan feel like a star.'

PGA Tour Makes Troubling Weather Announcement Before Charles Schwab Challenge
With the year's second major tournament in the rearview, the PGA Tour shifts its focus to the Charles Schwab Challenge taking place at Colonial Country Club in Dallas. World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler decided he didn't need any extra time to celebrate his five-shot PGA Championship victory, and the Texas native will be teeing it up in his backyard this week. Four other golfers, though, decided to withdraw from the tournament just two days before the competition. Advertisement The PGA Tour Communications department announced that brothers Rasmus and Nicolai Hojgaard, Zach Johnson, and Will Zalatoris won't compete this weekend. Akshay Bhatia, William Mouw, Camilo Villegas and Dylan Wu are the beneficiaries of the openings and will play in the tournament starting May 22. That wasn't all from the PGA Tour's communications account, though. The weather outlook for the Charles Schwab Challenge's first round starts off well for the early tee times, but trouble looms in the afternoon. "Increasing moister and a weak disturbance aloft is expected to set off clusters of rain and thunderstorms to our north along the TX/OK state line after 2 p.m," a statement from the Tour read. "These thunderstorm complexes will sink to the south, with the greatest threat across the Metroplex expected to occur between 5-10 p.m. Breezy conditions are expected to arrive out ahead of these storms in the late afternoon, with gusts around 20 mph. Activity should diminish in coverage and intensity after 10 p.m. with dry conditions likely by 2 a.m. Saturday." Advertisement The worst was yet to come. "Strong to severe storms are possible this afternoon and evening with threats of large hail and thunderstorm wind gusts between 55-65 mph," the statement said in closing.

Sacha Baron Cohen and Isla Fisher finalize divorce
NEW YORK — Sacha Baron Cohen and Isla Fisher have finalized their divorce, more than a year after announcing their shocking separation. The 'Borat' comedian, 53, and 49-year-old 'Wedding Crashers' star confirmed the news on Friday in a joint statement shared to their Instagram stories. 'Our divorce has now been finalized,' Cohen and Fisher begin. 'We are proud of all we've achieved together and, continuing our great respect for each other, we remain friends and committed to co-parenting our wonderful children. We ask for the media to continue to respect our children's privacy.' The actors similarly announced their split via Instagram Stories in April 2024, sharing a snap of themselves in tennis wear. 'After a long tennis match lasting over 20 years, we are finally putting our racquets down. In 2023, we jointly filed to end our marriage,' the couple confirmed, adding they'd been 'quietly working through' the split. Cohen and Fisher first met in 2001 in Sydney, Australia, and got engaged three years later. They gave birth to their first child, daughter Olive, in late 2007 and tied the knot in Paris in March 2010. They welcomed their second daughter, Elula, later that summer. They also share son Montgomery, born in early 2015. The news of their separation broke in the wake of Rebel Wilson's memoir, 'Rebel Rising,' in which the actress claimed Cohen pressured her into performing inappropriate acts on the set of the 2016 film 'The Brothers Grimsby' and even pulled his pants down in her presence. Wilson then accused Cohen — who denies the claims — of 'bullying and gaslighting' when the Daily Mail quickly published previously unreleased footage from the apparent sex scene in question. Amid a defamation lawsuit filed by producers, the 'Pitch Perfect' star she refused to 'be bullied or silenced by high-priced lawyers or PR crisis managers.'
