The KLPGA Championship will mark the restart of pro golf in South Korea, with several top players competing in a tournament that will be played without fans

Ian Happ is a good enough recreational golfer to probably have briefly considered quitting his day job at some point. That is, if the Chicago Cubs second baseman didn't already have a dream day job playing Major League Baseball. But we're guessing he realizes how foolish a notion that would be after what happened on Friday.
Happ, a two-handicap in Golf Digest's latest pro athlete rankings and whose dad was a longtime agronomist for the USGA, fired a nice little 69—and lost. By ELEVEN strokes.

As you might have guessed, Happ was beaten by someone who plays golf for a living on the PGA Tour. And even if the current golf season has been put on hold by the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, Joel Dahmen appears to be in mid-season form. Check out this incredible scorecard from his 58—including a back-nine 26!—to break the course record at Arizona's Mesa Country Club:

I mean, he stepped over another human being after nailing a game-sealing NBA Finals jumpshot in his face and wasn't immediately kicked out of the league. An icon.

Focus On SportThe year is 2020. Michael Jordan has been retired for over a decade and a half. We've seen three presidents, a couple of wars, the entire Marvel Cinematic Universe, and the birth and death, at least culturally speaking, of something called Facebook since MJ hung up the AJs. The world has changed, but one thing hasn't: Everyone, at least in the wake of 'The Last Dance', still wants to “Be Like Mike.” The question, though, in today's day and age, knowing all we know, hindsight being 20/20 and all, is should we?
Well, if this story from longtime NBA writer and Jordan insider Sam Smith about how #23 used to treat teammates, namely Horace Grant, after bad games is true, the answer is almost definitely not. Here's what Smith told the Tolbert, Krueger and Brooks Podcast this week:
