CARLSBAD, Calif. (AP) Laura Davies had a nightmare round days after contending for a title at age 54, and Caroline Hedwall, Jackie Stoelting and Hee Young Park topped the Kia Classic leaderboard.

Davies shot a 10-over 82 on Thursday at rainy Aviara Golf Club – four days after tying for second behind Inbee Park in the Founders Cup, and five days after shooting a 9-under 63 in the Phoenix event.

Fighting Achilles tendon and calf problems in her left leg, Davies opened double bogey-bogey-par-bogey. She bogeyed Nos. 9, 10 and 12, had another double on 15 and bogeyed 16. The 82 was the World Golf Hall of Famer’s highest score on tour since also shooting 82 in the 2013 Marathon Classic. On Monday, she jumped 208 spots to No. 155 in the world.

Smith, Cantlay and Matsuyama all have a chance to emerge from Group 5.

Going into Friday’s final day of round robin, 20 players already have been mathematically eliminated, a list that includes defending champion Dustin Johnson, last year’s runner-up, Jon Rahm, and Zach Johnson.

Five matches are between players already eliminated.

Dave J HoganRussell Crowe is getting divorced. For most ordinary humans, this is cause for introspection and consternation—an opportunity to reevaluate one's self in the face of our most universal societal failure. Russell Crowe, however, is not an ordinary human. He's an Academy Award-winning Cinderella Gladiator Spy Captain and for him divorce isn't a failure, it's just another excuse to get shithoused on old cognac and Australian bikini models. Case in point: The Art of Divorce, Crowe's gleefully over-the-top, Sotheby's-sanctioned “Divorce Auction”, which is set to get underway next month with a veritable treasure trove of Crowe estate goodies—including but by no means limited to the greatest divorce auction catalog in the short history of divorce auctions catalogs—on the block.

More than a few clubs have been broken on golf courses. Here's what to do when you break your putter.

Thanks to the internet and the stupid teenagers that seem to populate it, there's no shortage of mind-numbing “trends” that TAKE SOCIAL MEDIA BY STORM on a seemingly weekly basis. One minute they are innocently planking on a wall somewhere and the next they are eating laundry detergent and literally poisoning themselves. Buncha rascals!
But every now and then, there's a fad we can get behind, even if it forces a husband to rethink his entire marriage. That latest fad is called “Morissetting” and it's not even really a fad, and it's actually just called “Morissetted”, because Twitter user Lisa Shmeesa (@LisaRieffel) is the only one to ever do it that we know of. Watch as Lisa repeatedly belts out Alanis Morissette songs (a spot-on impression, by the way) in her husband's face and films the absolutely incredible results:

That's what happens when you find yourself in the singe-digit percentage of human beings capable of doing what you do while getting paid millions of dollars to do it. I guess when you're that lucky, you don't want to change a thing, underwear included. Enter Tampa Bay Lightning defenseman Victor Hedman, who became the first ever Tampa Bay Lightning defenseman to ever go viral this week thanks in large part to his truly, utterly, ridiculously entertaining pre-game warm-up routine:

Ethan Miller/Getty ImagesMy work brought me to Las Vegas recently, and like any self-respecting degenerate, the first thing I did when I got off the plane was run straight to a sportsbook. The Masters is on the horizon, after all. Am I really supposed to not bet on golf in the one place where I’m actually allowed to?
In any case, I made my Masters bets (Justin Rose, Rory McIlroy and Paul Casey, in case you were wondering), but along the way I was reminded about all the various quirks that accompany betting in a sportsbook that nobody tells you about. I learned the hard way, but you don’t have to. Here are nine things to remember about how to bet on golf in Las Vegas for the next time you head to Sin City:
1. Not all the sportsbooks are equal
Maybe that goes unsaid, but not all casinos have sportsbooks, and not all sportsbooks are equal. Most of the bigger casinos have sportsbooks, but odds, types of bets and the atmosphere within the sportsbooks often differs between locations. Some sp..
