Not many golfers can say they’ve hit a hole-in-one on the PGA Tour. Now Si Woo Kim can say that he’s done it six times — and twice at a major championship after his most recent ace Friday.
In the PGA Championship, the 29-year-old Kim teed off from the longest par-3 at Quail Hollow. After holding his follow-through for a beat, he leaned over, as if guiding the ball with his mind, and watched it bounce onto the green and head straight for the pin.
After it landed in the cup, an excited Kim threw his club in the air and started running in celebration.
Kim hit 5-wood on the 252-yard sixth hole, making it the longest hole-in-one in major championship history. His six holes-in-one are the most from any golfer on the Tour since 2016.

The South Korean finished the day 7 under par and in a tie for second place.

Jhonattan Vegas was in front for the first time in a major and didn’t back down Friday. Vegas cruised through the back nine at muggy Quail Hollow and was 10-under par until he missed a 3-foot putt on 18 and ended an otherwise splendid day with a double bogey for an even-par 70, giving him a two-shot lead.
He was at 8-under 134, two ahead of Matthieu Pavon of France (65), former U.S. Open champion Matt Fitzpatrick (68) and Kim.

Craque Neto se revolta com dívida absurda de clube do Brasileirão: “Contrata todo mundo”
Craque Neto, em discurso na Rádio Bandeirantes (Reprodução) Craque Neto, ao abordar o crescimento da dívida do Atlético-MG, ficou espantado com o momento financeiro do Galo. Isso porque a dívida, anteriormente em R$ 1,4 bilhão, subiu para R$ 1,814 bilhão, situação avaliada como um absurdo. Neste cenário, diante das cifras elevadas, o ex-jogador também quis deixar um recado para os membros da imprensa que só enfatizam os débitos do Corinthians. “A dívida do Atlético-MG chegou em R$ 1,8 bilhão. Contrata todo mundo, paga dinheiro para todo mundo…. é uma coisa absurda fazer isso com o Atlético-MG. Os atleticanos falam: ‘Quem é ele para falar?’. Eu sou o Craque Neto.”, disse o comunicador da Band, em vídeo da Rádio Craque Neto. PUBLICIDADE PUBLICIDADE “Um absurdo o Atlético-MG chegar em R$ 1,8 bilhão.

Milton Neves elege time fraco do Brasileirão hoje e faz alerta
Milton Neves em participação no "Inteligência Ltda" (Reprodução - YouTube) Milton Neves não está nada satisfeito com o rendimento do Santos e voltou a subir o tom contra a equipe alvinegra, em texto publicado no UOL Esporte neste sábado (17), onde prospectou os jogos da 9ª rodada do Brasileirão, entre eles o clássico entre Corinthians e o Peixe, em Itaquera.

Whispers of a dark-horse CFP run pit Illinois against the program’s fiercest rival — preseason expectations
Getty Images You'll have to forgive Illinois football fans for wincing when the words "playoff contender" or "this year's Indiana" are tossed about as liberally as they have been this offseason. Not because the comparison to Indiana is misguided -- it is, as the Hoosiers were coming off a 3-9 record last season with a first-year coach while Illinois won 10 games in 2024 -- but because Illinois and expectations have gone together like oil and vinegar.You'll hear a lot about how Illinois returns nearly every key starter from last year's team, including its offensive and defensive lines. You'll also hear about third-year starting quarterback Luke Altmyer, who hasn't posted gaudy numbers the last two seasons but has routinely found ways to make big plays when his team needs him most.What you don't hear much about is this: the last […]
