Paul Casey withdraws from the rain-plagued BMW Championship

Golf Capsules

Rain continued to make a mess of the BMW Championship on Sunday morning. Final-round tee times were originally moved up to 7 a.m. in hopes of getting in some play, but there was this green blob sitting over the Aronimink Golf Club and frankly the entire commonwealth of Pennsylvania.

And so there has been this steady drip of depressing announcements from tour officials:

With each subsequent tweet, players were forced to continue to hang around Aronimink in hopes that some good news might surface. But then again, did you see that big green blob?

Rob FoldyNew Florida head coach Dan Mullen has a lot of work to do to win back the Gator faithful in a short period of time. His job got 10 times tougher on Saturday night when, for the first time in THIRTY-ONE years, Florida lost to SEC East “rival” (for lack of a better term) Kentucky on their home turf. But wait, there's more!

That's right, it somehow got worse for Mullen in the immediate aftermath of the Gators' 27-16 loss inside “The Swamp” where no one gets out alive, except Georgia Southern and Kentucky.

The Naomi Osaka and Serena Williams U.S. Open women's final on Saturday was not short on emotions and dramatics. In fact, it was quite unbelievable. Osaka, a 20-year-old upstart ranked 20th in the world, defeated Serena, who was looking for her 24th Grand Slam title, in straight sets on Saturday.
Osaka would win in straight sets, defeating Serena, 6-4, in the second set, but it was one of the most peculiar scenes we've seen in Grand Slam tennis that will have people talking. Serena was called on a very game penalty by U.S. Open chair umpire Brian Earley for misconduct. First, Serena was called out by Earley for advice given by Serena's coach during a game, considered to be misconduct, and she was assessed a point penalty.
Following the penalty, and continuing into following games, Serena let Earley have it. She stopped at the official's chair multiple times, yelling that she has never cheated in her life. Then Serena broke her racquet in frustration after dropping t..
