The only thing Floyd Mayweather likes more than Floyd Mayweather is money. Every time Floyd gets bored or lonely or insecure, he can be found on Instagram, posting receipts for shit he bought in a futile attempt to fill the void where his soul should be. Whether that's the $100,000 chinchilla fur coat he wore to the Super Bowl or the $23,000-per-night suite he's been cooling his heels in over in Hong Kong, Floyd goes to great lengths to make sure everyone knows not only what he's got, but how much it cost. Of all his obscene displays of wealth, however, his latest may just be his craziest:

That's Jacob & Co.'s so called Billionaire Watch. It features a manual-wound skeleton tourbillon, a 72-hour power reserve, and a whopping 260 carats of Emerald-cut diamonds adorning everything from the crown to case. It's not subtle, it's not supposed to be, and it costs a whopping $18 million dollars. You can buy a house in Beverly Hills fo..

Theo Wargo(Photo by Theo Wargo/WireImage)I'll admit, I was a Doubting Thomas. The premise seemed extremely thin, like when a Saturday Night Live sketch is turned into movie. The trailers did little to inspire hope. It had Shaquille O'Neal, whose IMDB page would make Freddie Prinze Jr. embarrassed. It appeared destined for the almighty zero on Rotten Tomatoes.
“It” being “Uncle Drew,” the somewhat-entertaining Pepsi commercial turned feature film. For those unfamiliar with the ad campaign, Kyrie Irving and a handful of retired NBA stars put on make-up to look like geriatrics, show up at a neighborhood park, ball against a group of stand-in actors unsuspecting regulars, hilarity ensues. That Hollywood took this recurring set-up and made it a full-length movie truly shows that studios have run out of idea. (Which is a perfect time to pitch my film, “By the Book.” Imagine a cop who, wait for it, does play by the rules! Lot of paper work being filled out, working security at ball ..

Here at The Loop we have the utmost respect for people who make it to Jeopardy!, contrary to some of our past digs at these NERDS. But the fact is, they didn't make it to the big show for their sports knowledge, or lack thereof. Sure, there may be the rare contestant who can cash in on some of Alex Trebek's easier sports questions, I mean, answers (little Jeopardy! insider tip), but more often than not they fail miserably.
RELATED: This golf-related Jeopardy! question got really dark, REALLY quickly
So when “Sporting Events” appeared as the final Jeopardy! category on Wednesday night, I immediately perked up, knowing hilarity was likely to ensue, like the time that guy mixed up Magic Johnson and Wayne Gretzky. As Trebek read off the question answer I really perked up, because it was the easiest golf-related answer in Jeopardy! history:

KILDEER, Ill. (AP) Inbee Park is energized and ready to take aim at her eighth major.

The thumb and back that bothered her in recent years are fine. Though, one thing is weighing on the LPGA Hall of Famer entering the KPMG Women’s PGA Championship. Someone broke into her house in Las Vegas last week, and she’s still not sure exactly what was taken.

”Talking to police, talking to insurance,” Park said. ”It’s so hard when you’re not there trying to figure out what’s lost. I mean, this is the life we get on the road.”

The home crisis aside, Park appears to be in a good place.

The top-ranked South Korean star tops a loaded field at Kemper Lakes in the third of five majors on the LPGA Tour schedule. They are trying to conquer a challenging course where the late Payne Stewart won the 1989 PGA Championship for the first of his three majors. And there is no shortage of story lines this week.

There’s Park, trying to win the event for the fourth time. She’ll be ..

John Smoltz talks about playing in the U.S. Senior Open

SAN DIEGO (AP) Phil Rodgers, a five-time winner on the PGA Tour who became one of golf’s top instructors, died after a long battle with leukemia. He was 80.

Rodgers died Tuesday morning at his home near San Diego.

Rodgers developed into one of top young players in the 1950s under Paul Runyan at La Jolla Country Club, winning an NCAA title at Houston. He won the 1962 Los Angeles Open for his first PGA Tour title, closing with a 62 for a nine-shot victory.

That also was the pro debut of Jack Nicklaus. They were rivals and friends, and Nicklaus later leaned on Rodgers for help with his short game. Nicklaus gave Rodgers credit for his U.S. Open and PGA Championship victories in 1980.

”We lost one of golf’s greats, one of its most colorful individuals, and one of my dearest friends in Phil Rodgers,” Nicklaus said in an Instagram post.

Rodgers won all five of his PGA Tour events in his 20s, and that included two close calls in the majors. He was at 2-under p..

POTOMAC, Md. (AP) Tiger Woods is playing the Quicken Loans National for the last time, and so much about this year feels new.

Woods played his first 18-hole round at the TPC Potomac at Avenel Farm during the pro-am Wednesday, and it didn’t take long to realize why the course rated as the fourth toughest to par last year on the PGA Tour, behind only three majors.

”It’s certainly a lot more difficult than what I had envisioned,” Woods said. ”They’ve got the rough up, fairways in. It’s like a mini-Open here.”

Also new: his putter.

Maybe.

Woods has been struggling with just about every aspect of putting since March, when he made a brief charge in the final round at Bay Hill until tying for fifth. He missed the cut at the U.S. Open two weeks ago, and last week in the Bahamas he began tinkering with a new putter. The one he used in nine holes of practice on Tuesday, and in the pro-am, was a mallet variety.

”I’m trying to find something that I can feel again..

Each year on the PGA Tour, there are golfers who stand out for how often they're in contention yet just can't quite break through
