Lisa Lane talks with various athletes at the 2018 Celebrity Championship.

WILLIAMSBURG, Va. (AP) In Gee Chun shot a 5-under 66 on Friday to take the lead in the suspended second round of the LPGA Tour’s Kingsmill Championship.

Three-quarters of an inch of rain fell overnight on Kingsmill Resort’s River Course, delaying the start of play an hour. Storms developed again in the afternoon and play was suspended for more than hour, then finally called for day at 7:25 p.m.

Chun played in the morning. The South Korean star had six birdies and a bogey to get to 11-under 131.

”I felt good,” Chun said. ”I could see the putting lines very well today.”

Chun’s two victories came in major championships in the 2015 U.S. Women’s Open and 2016 The Evian Championship.

”I really like this course,” Chun said. ”I always happy to play here and see all the good people from here. Everything was very comfy. Everything is very comfy.”

Austin Ernst (65) and Nasa Hataoka (66) were a stroke back after bogey-free rounds.

”Just really solid,” Ernst said..

DALLAS (AP) Wind or no, Marc Leishman likes his chances at the AT&T Byron Nelson after breaking the 36-hole record previously shared by Tiger Woods.

Hometown star Jordan Spieth really wants it to blow.

Leishman followed the best round of his PGA Tour career with a 5-under 66 at the new Trinity Forest course Friday, reaching the halfway point at 15-under 127 for a one-shot lead over 21-year-old rookie Aaron Wise – and keeping Spieth eight back on the links-style layout where the Dallas native is a member.

Maybe Spieth isn’t the only one who feels at home.

”This course has got a real Australian feel to it,” said Leishman, the 34-year-old Aussie who opened with a 10-under 61 . ”Reminds me a lot of home. So that might have something to do with it.”

Winds were stronger on the treeless tract, but not until late in the morning rounds of Leishman and most of the others on the second-round leaderboard.

The wind didn’t bother Wise, who shot a bogey-free 63 in t..

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (AP) Gene Sauers shot a 5-under 67 to move into a first-place tie with Miguel Angel Jimenez on Friday in the second round of the Regions Tradition, the first of five PGA Tour Champions majors.

Sauers completed his second straight bogey-free round to finish at 11-under 133. Jimenez had four birdies for a 69 at Greystone Golf & Country Club, a day after matching the course record with a 64.

Jerry Kelly, Kevin Sutherland and Scott McCarron are two strokes back going into the weekend. Kelly shot 69, McCarron 68 and Sutherland 66.

Sutherland and McCarron had eagles. Sutherland had a bogey-free round.

Sauers had opened with a 66 and is seeking his second PGA Tour Champions win. His first came at the 2016 U.S. Senior Open Championship.

Michael NagleTis the season for hungover 22-year-olds to drag themselves into a piercingly fluorescent stadium or sock-sopping dewy lawn and let the words of wisdom from a Notable Person roll into their skulls, phrases that there like bingo balls shall tumble, doomed never to be called out, to go unheard and unspoken for the listener's remaining years on this misunderstood planet that spins us always and unstoppably towards sunset.
I'm not a commencement speech enthusiast. But I know there are more than a few of them out there, and believe it or not I get it: It's a nice thing to have hope, to feel the thrill of inspiration even if only for a few moments. It's nice to put your cynicism aside for a while and appreciate the morning, appreciate what it's like to be young and hungry, and to encourage those young, hungry people to go out and devour the world. Because the truth is they will change it, maybe because of these speeches, maybe in spite of them.
This year..

Whenever Peter Kostis starts his swing analysis using the Konica Minolta BizHub Swing Vision Camera (full name, of course) on a golf telecast, you know it's about to go down. Lines get drawn on the player to illustrate angles and swing planes, and Kostis breaks down players swings in an intellectual way most golfers can actually understand (sometimes).
How about giving Happy Gilmore's swing the Peter Kostis treatment? The hockey-player-turned-golfer swing has been replicated by so many golfers around the world since the Adam Sandler movie was released in 1996. So much has already been done with Happy Gilmore's swing, with actual Sports Science videos devoted to the character's swing, and even tour pros trying to replicate the swing (shoutout, John Peterson, for doing it in competition).
But someone had the hilarious idea to dub Kostis' analysis of another tour pro, including with lines for angles and swing planes, and added it over Gilmore's swing. The res..

Here at The Loop, we love Shaq. Especially when he's arguing with Chuck. Slightly less when he's filming selfie videos while driving. Thus, when we saw that the Big Real Estate Mogul had listed his 31,000 square-foot Florida pad for a cool $28 million, we knew we had to, at the very least, check it out. Suffice to say, we weren't disappointed.
Featuring a 6,000-square foot basketball gym, a walk-in cigar humidor/wine cellar, a 95-foot-long pool with a swim up bar, a living room with a Shaq Diesel semi-truck bursting out of the wall, and more Superman “S”-emblazoned accoutrements than you can shake your original VHS copy of Kazaam at, it probably goes without saying that Shaq's Orlando-area abode is not exactly subtle. But you know what, let's let the photos do the talking (images courtesy of Uneek Luxury Tours):

Ian Poulter has had quite the resurgent season on the PGA Tour. The 42-year-old won his first tour title in more than five years with his playoff win at the Houston Open over Beau Hossler. So, the Englishman's bank account is looking better and better these days.
If you're Ian Poulter and your bank account has increased quite significantly over the past year, what's the next move? Buy a new car. Of course. What else? Ian Poulter's cars and his obsession with them is well known for who has followed the European Ryder Cup star. His Ferrari collection has continued to grow over the years, but Poulter has never owned a Porsche, apparently. Until Thursday.
We were treated to a live Instagram reveal of Poulter's newest purchase. Some people do this sort of thing for their baby. Poulter's big reveal was the Porsche …
Here's the sequence of photos (we captured them from his Instagram Stories, since you might not have seen them):
