'Everything but the comeback': BLINKs slam YG over BLACKPINK's lack of new music before DEADLINE world tour

Yet another update on the world tour—but still no word on a comeback? On June 10 KST, YG Entertainment revealed the official poster for BLACKPINK WORLD TOUR 'DEADLINE' IN GOYANG through the group's social media channels, officially launching the countdown to their next chapter. Set for July 5 and 6 at the Goyang Sports Complex Main Stadium, the concert will mark BLACKPINK's first full-group performance in nearly 1 year and 10 months. With overwhelming demand, all tickets—including limited-view seats—have completely sold out, highlighting the group's unrivaled global presence. #BLACKPINK WORLD TOUR IN GOYANG#블랙핑크 #WORLDTOUR #DEADLINE #DEADLINE_IN_GOYANG #YG Where is the comeback? YG Entertainment had previously described the event as "the pinnacle of BLACKPINK's live performance," promising an unforgettable experience. With each member refining her craft through both group and solo ventures, fans anticipated a top-tier production that would highlight their artistic growth. However, many BLINKs are frustrated by the group's limited discography—just 32 songs in an eight-year career. Despite BLACKPINK's global success, the small number of tracks has long been a point of contention among fans, who had hoped for more consistent releases over the years. The disappointment only grew when YG's Yang Hyun-suk recently unveiled his agency's future plans. Regarding BLACKPINK, he simply mentioned that a new single would be released—falling far short of fans' expectations for a full album. Since that vague announcement, no further updates about the song have been shared. WHERE'S THE COMEBACK????????? Adding to the frustration, fans have noted the lack of promotional content. There have been no new group photos released by YG, leaving many wondering about the current status of BLACKPINK's comeback. With each member busy with solo endeavors, the group's collective presence has been virtually nonexistent, fueling concern and disappointment within the fandom. WHERE IS THE FUCKING COMEBACK ANNOUNCEMENT Everything except the comeback we still haven't seen a single new photo of the girls it's amazing how we've held on so hard More about DEADLINE world tour Following the Goyang shows, BLACKPINK is set to embark on an expansive world tour covering 16 cities and 31 performances. Key stops include Los Angeles, Chicago, Toronto, New York, Paris, Milan, Barcelona, London, Kaohsiung, Bangkok, Jakarta, Bulacan, Singapore, Tokyo, and Hong Kong. At the same time, the group is gearing up for a long-anticipated comeback, marking their first new music release in nearly 2 years and 8 months since their 2022 album BORN PINK.

The Next Chapter of Nike Golf Starts with Luke Clanton

Back in late January, there were signs thatNike Golfwas preparing to stage a comeback. AfterTiger Woods' long-term contract ran its course, questions began swirling about the Swoosh's staying power in the sport. But whenthe brand made a surprise splash at the PGA Show—unveiling an expansive and clearly expensive booth filled with apparel, shoes and larger-than-life banners—the golf world took notice. Sure,Nikeretained names likeScottie Scheffler,Tony FinauandNelly Korda. But who would carry the next generation? Who could bring both on-course results and, potentially one day, off-course presence? That's where Luke Clanton enters the picture. The 21-year-old Florida State standout has been a fixture on college leaderboards for the past few seasons, leading FSU through deep postseason runs and earning All-American honors in the process. With a compact, powerful swing and an undeniable maturity about him, Clanton has the skills to execute and the confidence to mix it up with the world's best players. Last summer he went on an unprecedented run where he finished inside the top 10 at consecutive TOUR events, the first time an amateur had done that since 1958. Now he's ready to turn pro as Nike Golf's newest signing (with an announcement video to boot). And while he may not be a household name yet, the partnership already feels meaningful. 'Like a dream come true,' he said of putting on the Swoosh for the first time at late February's Cognizant Classic. Weeks before making hisPGA TOURdebut at the RBC Canadian Open, Clanton sat down with Hypegolf to talk about the moment and what it means to step into the next chapter. How has it been over the last year or two balancing your journey through pro tournaments, college golf and academics? Yeah, I mean, I'll be honest I was kind of just going with it as it came. It was definitely new to me. Originally, we thought I'd have one PGA TOUR start after winning the Valspar Collegiate to get into Valspar the next year. Then, suddenly, I had 12 starts before that. So it kind of happened in a blur. Thankfully, the academic staff, coaching staff and everyone at FSU were a massive help. I was a bit lost in it all, but I had a great team behind me. Whether it was being away for a week and a half or jumping straight into a college event, the coaches made sure I was right—physically and mentally. At the beginning, I wasn't even thinking about a TOUR card. I just thought it would be cool to play in some PGA TOUR events. Then my agent came to me—I think I had four points at the time—and said we had a platform to actually get the card. I kind of laughed like, 'Well, we need 20.' And he goes, 'Yeah, we can do that.' So we started checking off boxes. By the fall, around RSM [Classic], I had my first real moment where I was like, 'Damn, I can actually contend in these events.' Getting the card at Cognizant, especially being so close to where I grew up, was just an unbelievable journey. So while the card wasn't part of the initial plan, did you always see professional golf in your future—even if the path was uncertain? In the beginning of my sophomore spring, I had only one college win and I was top 20 in the world, which was great—but my goal was just to play the best golf I could. Then I won three college events in a row that spring, and that boosted my confidence. I felt like my game was getting where I wanted it. But after losing Nationals [NCAA Division I Men's Golf Championship] the way we did, I was crushed. The next week, I hadU.S. Openqualifying. I remember my mom driving me there, and I was still so down about Nationals. She looked at me and said, 'You gotta focus up. You've got three big things coming.' I ended up qualifying, and my first thought was, 'Holy crap, I'm in a major.' Then I shot 6-over in the first round. I thought I was done. Came back with a 1-under, made the cut, then shot another 1-under. Suddenly, I had a chance to win low amateur. I missed a five-footer on 18 to tie for it, so I was back to being disappointed. But the emotional rollercoaster of that week taught me a lot about expectations. Same thing at John Deere [Classic] and Rocket Mortgage [Classic]. I was contending, then frustrated not to win. But six months earlier, I'd have been thrilled just to play. Each week taught me more, and by my last start at Valspar, I felt like, 'I can win this.' I'm just trying to keep expectations in check while building confidence. After those big tournament moments, did you feel a shift in how you were seen by your college teammates when you returned to campus? Not one bit, and that was the coolest thing. When I came back after the summer, the first day of class, all the guys were there, and nothing had changed. We have a rule: no matter if you're a freshman or a senior, we treat everyone the same. That team chemistry has been so important for me. It keeps me grounded. They were obviously curious and asked how things went, but we were all still competing, all still trying to reach the same goal. You're with Nike now, but in the past you had the Good Good logo on your gear. You seem pretty tuned in to the creator community in golf. How much do you follow that space, and has it influenced you whether in mindset or social media? Funny enough, when I was 16, I DMedGarrett [Clarke]fromGood Good—back when he was still GM Golf and had maybe 100k followers—just saying, 'Hey, want to play 18 holes?' He replied, said he was in Miami, and we played. A couple months later, the whole Good Good crew came out to my home course, and I got to know them really well. I stayed in touch with Garrett and started learning about what they were doing creatively with YouTube. I think what they've done to grow the game is really impressive. A lot of people who don't watch the PGA TOUR are still watching golf on YouTube because of them. They've become a big business, doing charity events and more. Garrett helped me understand social media, helped boost my profile, and I'm really thankful for that. Playing in front of a camera is hard. It's a whole different thing. So having that experience early was super valuable. And tell me about the Nike partnership. How did that come about, and how does it feel to get to wear the Swoosh? I mean, yeah—just having the honor to wear the Swoosh has kind of been my dream growing up. You think about all the top players, all the top athletes in the world and they wear Nike. So when the opportunity came, it was incredible. I told my agent immediately, 'I'm in.' The first time I ever wore it was at the Cognizant Classic, and I remember putting it on that Thursday morning and thinking, man, this is a dream come true. Like, not only do I have a chance to earn my card, but I also get to wear Nike. I remember talking to my caddie that morning and just saying how thankful I was for everything that's happened in my life to even get to that point. It's really incredible to be a part of it. Have you gotten as far as thinking about what you're going to wear at certain moments? Is that something you're looking to take part in? A little bit, yeah. I'm definitely excited to see what Nike has coming in the future. I've actually never been a big fashion guy, which is funny to say now. But once I got signed and they started sending me some gear, I was like, damn, this is really cool. Now I'm learning every step of the way. Growing up, we didn't have much of that kind of stuff, so even just getting a nice pair of shoes or anything from the Nike store is incredible. I'm just excited to keep seeing what's next with them. And then building up to your first pro start in early June—just broadly, how are you feeling about it? What are you most looking forward to? I haven't thought about it too much, honestly, just because of everything going on with the college season. We've still got Regionals and Nationals coming up. It does creep into your mind sometimes, like when you're watching the PGA TOUR on TV and you see those guys out there. You want to be out there too. But right now, my one goal in college is to win a national championship with this team. We've been so damn close twice now. I'm super pumped for that first start at RBC, I really am, but it's hard not to stay locked in on Nationals. Once that last putt drops and hopefully we're holding that trophy, that's when I'll really start thinking about the next chapter. Until then, it's all about enjoying every moment I've got left here. Because I've got less than a month left on campus, and we're trying to soak it all in.

Scottie Scheffler mounts late charge to take 1-shot lead into final round of Memorial Tournament

At stake for Scheffler is a chance to win for the third time in his last four tournaments and join Tiger Woods as the only back-to-back winners at the Memorial. 'I don't know what the scoring average was today, but I was definitely proud of the way I finished and it was really challenging,' Scheffler said. 'Through 13 holes, I felt like I was playing really good and I was only even par. Just a hard course.' The scoring average for the 57 players who made the cut was 73.9, and three players failed to break 80. Scheffler, the only player to break par all three rounds, was at 8-under 208. Advertisement Griffin, who won last week at Colonial, made five birdies and five bogeys over his last 13 holes. Scheffler was six shots behind Griffin at one point in the cool, blustery weather. And then it all changed so quickly. Griffin, who became the only player this week to reach 10-under par when he ran off three straight birdies, gave it all back with four straight bogeys. He was in the fairway or on the tee when he made three of those bogeys. Advertisement Ben Griffin has led/co-led the past five rounds in a row on TOUR ... 🤯 He currently leads by FIVE — PGA TOUR (@PGATOUR) Scheffler was lurking, as always. The world's No. 1 player has an uncanny knack of hanging around and winding up with the low score by the end of the day. This was no exception. 'I did see that Ben got to 10 under, but it's not going to change my play in the middle of a Saturday,' Scheffler said. 'This golf course is really challenging and no lead's safe around this place. I knew if I kept going and played a decent round, I would be in somewhat of a position to chase him down tomorrow.' He holed a 10-foot birdie putt on the 14th — his first of the day — followed getting on the collar of the green at the par-5 15th for a simple birdie. He hit 7-iron into the wind to 8 feet for birdie and closed with the last one that gave him the lead. He's no longer chasing, and he's a tough customer to track down. Scheffler has won the last eight times when he held the 54-hole lead. Jordan Spieth also was in the chase, tied with Scheffler in second place at one point, until he failed to save par from a bunker on the 17th and drove into the creek on the 18th for a closing bogey and a 72. He was five shots behind, feeling better about his game. There was just one problem. Spieth talked about the fun of being in the mix, of making six birdies on a tough course, of needing to keep moving in that direction. And then he paused. 'The bummer for me is Scottie's at 7 or 8 (under) and he just … you can't count on him shooting even tomorrow,' Spieth said. 'So it would take something special. But all in all, just trying to shoot a few under each day out here.' Advertisement Nick Taylor of Canada wound up three shots behind after a 74, and for that he was thankful at the end. Taylor went into the water and made double bogey on the diabolical par-3 12th, followed that with a bogey and was sliding out of contention. And then he holed out from fairway for eagle at the 14th, birdied the next hole and played that four-hole stretch in even par. Double bogey. Bogey. EAGLE. A crazy stretch for Nick Taylor ends with a 117-yard hole out! — PGA TOUR (@PGATOUR) The best round belonged to Sepp Straka, a two-time winner on the PGA Tour this year. He posted a 66 as the leaders were just getting started and was in the group at 3-under 213 that included Spieth and Ryder Cup captain Keegan Bradley (68). Patrick Cantlay and Rickie Fowler each shot 69 and joined Shane Lowry (73) at 214. It's a long way off, and it can feel even longer with Scheffler the one they are chasing. 'It's a tough golf course. I'll be trying to chase him down,' Taylor said. 'He's obviously playing phenomenal, so I'll have to play some of my best golf to be in the hunt there with the last few holes to go. But it is playing so difficult that being a few under early will get me back in there.'
