It's been a hectic couple days in the wild world of celebrity golf. Just about the same time Larry Fitzgerald was wrapping up another Pebble Beach Pro-Am title on Sunday, Hollywood's biggest stars were assembling on the red carpet for the 92nd Academy Awards just a couple of hours south. In attendance? Ray Romano, who played 54 holes up the coast before jetting down to present. But there's no rest for the wicked . . . famous, that is, who assembled once more at Riviera Country Club on Monday for the Genesis Invitational Celebrity Cup.

Pitting Team Woods vs. Team Watson in a knockdown, drag-out no-holds-barred battle for celebrity golf supremacy friendly seven-on-seven competition, the 2020 Celebrity Cup still hung in the balance when Michael Pena drained an eight-footer on 18 to claim the title for Tiger's black-clad ballers. It was Woods' second consecutive victory in the competition, driven in large part by his tough-love coaching sty..

You could argue that there is not a more universally-loved athlete than Washington Capitals winger T.J. Oshie, and the only pushback you'd get is from people who don't follow hockey and have never heard of him. And even those people might still remember him as the American hero who scored four shootout goals to beat Russia in the 2014 Olympics.
All Oshie has done since then to endear himself to fans is funnel beers at the American Century Championship, wear a beer helmet at the American Century Championship and chug beers through his shirt during the Capitals Stanley Cup parade. Slugging brews makes you an instant fan favorite. Oshie knows how to play to his base.
More importantly, he's an all-time family man. Oshie and his wife Lauren are must-follows on Instagram, and their two daughters Lyla and Leni are as adorable as it gets:

Michael ReavesLet's get this out of the way right now: The MLB's new playoff proposal, which hit the interweb on Monday afternoon, is a little wacky. Maybe it's not as divisive as robo umps, starting runners on second in extras, or the Civil War, but it's still going to drive wedge between more than a few brothers before it makes its proposed debut in the fall of 2022. The idea, at least as it's being reported, is to expand the playoff field to 7 teams in each league and allow each league's top seed to PICK THEIR OWN OPPONENTS. Yes, really.

If this sounds a little too much like Baseball Bachelor to you, well, you're not alone, with the MLB's reigning outrage king Trevor Bauer taking to Twitter after the news leaked to flatten commissioner Rob Manfred with an acme steam roller. Tell us how you really feel, Trev.

Tiger Woods is back in action as part of the strongest field of the year at Riviera

Golf Digest editor-in-chief Jerry Tarde recounts his “bucket list” experience playing four days of the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am alongside winner Nick Taylor.

This week on a brand new episode of We Couldn't Make This Up if We Tried, we're thrilled to present professional tennis player Vasek Pospisil! Pospisil just wrapped up a great run at Open Sud de France in Marseille, advancing all the way to the final against Gael Monfils on Sunday. But we're not here to talk about tennis. We're here to talk about what happened between the tennis, when the Canadian-born player was spotted refueling with swigs off a maple syrup bottle during his decisive match with Monfils. Yes, this is a real thing that happened. No, we don't know why . . . besides, you know, Canada.

Maybe it's a sugar thing? Does maple syrup have electrolytes? Gatorade pancakes anyone? We have a million and one questions, but whatever the answers, this is still about as good a power move as you'll ..

For content people, this past weekend was like an all-you-can eat buffet. Where do you even start? Duke-UNC. Bob Knight returning to Indiana. XFL kicking off. The Oscars. The Independent Spirit Awards (go watch Adam Sandler's speech right now if you haven't). Golf even provided it's fair share of chaos thanks to Phil Mickelson, who didn't even win at Pebble Beach. It was can't stop, won't stop, which allowed perhaps the best moment of the entire weekend to fly a bit under the radar.
That moment occurred early in the second half of the Stanford-Colorado game, when Colorado big man Evan Battey stole the ball and began barreling down the court. Battey, who stands at 6-foot-8 and weighs 262 pounds, drove to the hoop and was met by Stanford's Oscar da Silva. Da Silva fouled him hard, and the two collided and slammed down hard against the hardwood. Both players appeared to be shaken up, but Battey sat up immediately. Da Silva, who hit the floor head first a..

If you're thinking about buying new clubs, here are some tips about when it makes sense to get a lesson

David Cannon/Getty ImagesRory McIlroy and Erica Stoll at the 2016 Ryder Cup.This week’s Genesis Invitational features a loaded field with nine of the top 10 players in the world competing at Riviera Country Club, including new (again) No. 1 Rory McIlroy.
The 30-year-old Northern Irishman has come to enjoy spending time in Los Angeles over the years—in his two appearances in the tournament the last two years, he has finished T-20 and T-4. He also seems to like getting away from the course, moonlighting apparently as a tourist.

That’s among the things you can glean in the second installment of a series of fantastic interviews McIlroy has done with Paul Kimmage of the Irish Independent, published on Sunday. In the piece, McIlroy discusses, among other things, taking on Tiger Woods at the 2018 Tour Championship, missing the cut at the Open Championship at Royal Portrush and winning the Players Championship.
