Brooks Koepka recently became the latest—and last—golfer to appear in the ESPN Body Issue, but now he's got some surprising company in the golfers-showing-skin category. Kiradech Aphibarnrat posted video of him practicing shirtless. All of Kiradech Aphibarnrat, that is. And it's a magnificent site to behold.

Kiradech, you sexy beast, you. Looking good, man. And unlike Koepka, there was no kooky crash diet required for that more, um, natural look. What a specimen.
Come to think of it, we shouldn't be too surprised by Aphibarnrat baring his belly. After all, the 30-year-old from Thailand is often called “the John Daly of Asia,” and, well, JD never shied away from some shirtless golf:

Solheim Cup: Europe leads despite big win for Korda sisters

Europe holds the lead, US has the momentum in Solheim Cup

Robby Shelton shot an 8-under 62 to take a two-stroke lead after the first round of A Military Tribute at The Greenbrier

Following his victory at Colonial in May, Kevin Na didn't exactly finish the season strong. In his very next start at the U.S. Open he missed the cut, then withdrew from the 3M Open a few weeks later. After that he tied for 43rd in a field of 63 players at the WGC-FedEx St. Jude, and followed that up with a T-77 at the Northern Trust, which included a final-round 80, his most recent competitive round.
The upside? Na got a full month off before returning to action on Thursday at The Greenbrier, where he is the defending champion. The extra down time has paid dividends so far, as Na is four under on the day with a few holes to play. His game isn't the only thing in mid-season form either. On the front nine, Na was up to his usual tricks, strolling in birdie putts well before they dropped into the cup:

While it couldn't possibly top his walk-in from the 2012 U.S. Open, this one has got to be in the top three of Na walk-..

On the list of ridiculously dumb potential purchases, we didn't think anything could top Gucci selling a pair of purposely dirtied sneakers for nearly $1,000. Well, we were wrong.

Introducing the hot dog sofa currently being sold by Neiman Marcus, which, not surprisingly, also sells those stupid Gucci shoes. And this one takes the ketchup for two reasons. For one thing, the hideous creation costs $7,100. For another, at least with the shoes, someone could be talked into buying a pair because probably somewhere “all the cool kids are wearing dirty sneakers.” Let us assure you, though, that no one cool has this stupid hot dog sofa in their house.

What a time to be alive, indeed. Look, I love a good hot dog, especially one that comes with a soda for $1.50 (Costco!), but having a giant fabric one on display and sitting on it? Wouldn't that just make you hungry all the time? What&#..

Korda sisters to make history at Solheim Cup

If you thought the arms race between the U.S. and Russia crumbled with the Berlin Wall, think again. In recent days, U.S. sports have rolled out an unprecedented display of celebratory muscle—breaking out ice-laden chains, giant Ticonderoga No. 2s and D-II pimp canes in celebration of the almighty turnover. Russia's sleeper cells have clearly taken note, however, because on Wednesday our global nemesis fired a retaliatory shot, with VHL hockey team Izhstal unveiling an actual AK-47 as their new player-of-the-game trophy. Somewhere Gilbert Arenas is strapping on a pair of skates.
Originally designed by Soviet Union general Mikhail Kalashnikov, the Avtomat Kalashnikova, or AK-47, was officially introduced in 1948 and quickly became one of the most infamous, widely circulated assault rifles on earth. In the early aughts, Jazz center Andrei Kirilenko ushered the weapon into the American sports mainstream, earning the nickname AK-47 as a homage to his Russian heritage, initials, and, o..
