Xander Schauffele - English
The PGA Championship has returned to Quail Hollow Club, and with it, a fresh wave of excitement-and serious cash-on the line. As 156 players tee off in Charlotte, the stakes go well beyond trophies and bragging rights.
While fans will be watching closely to see who handles the pressure and whose putter catches fire, the players have even more on their minds: how much they stand to earn. The PGA of America hasn’t officially released the 2025 prize purse yet, but based on last year’s numbers and the rising trend across major championships, expectations are sky-high.

In 2024, Xander Schauffele walked away with a $3.3 million winner’s check from an $18.5 million purse. That was 18% of the pot. If the purse climbs to $20 million this year-as some experts anticipate-this year’s champ could pocket over $3.6 million.

Mariners’ Cal Raleigh ‘glad’ MLB All-Star voting process is over: ‘Seeing your face everywhere is a little uncomfortable’
Seattle Mariners catcher Cal Raleigh is being rewarded for his historic start to the season. On Wednesday, Raleigh was named a starter for the 2025 MLB All-Star Game, earning his first All-Star nod while being voted the best catcher in the American League.But while Raleigh is pleased about the opportunity, he has another reason to be grateful All-Star voting has ended. While speaking with reporters ahead of Wednesday's game against the Kansas City Royals, Raleigh said he'll be happy to have a little bit less publicity."Obviously, I'm very blessed, very excited and very honored. It's a cool accomplishment," Raleigh said, via The Seattle Times' Adam Jude, before adding: "I'm just glad it's kind of over, too. Seeing your face everywhere is a little uncomfortable. But I was just very happy."Raleigh, a Seattle fan favorite with a notorious nickname, has burst […]

Carlos Vinícius em ação pelo Fulham. (Foto: Richard Heathcote/Getty Images) Na noite desta quarta-feira (2), o Corinthians abriu negociações pelo atacante Carlos Vinícius, que estava disputando a Premier League. Aos 30 anos, o brasileiro está sem contrato desde terça-feira e livre no mercado, o que significa uma transferência gratuita. No entanto, torcedores do Timão não ficaram felizes com a ideia, muito devido aos números do jogador. PUBLICIDADE PUBLICIDADE Torcedores do Corinthians não aprovam Carlos Vinícius Informações divulgadas pelo Ge e por André Hernan dão conta de que o Corinthians gostou das características de Carlos Vinícius.

Porém, boa parte da fiel torcida não ficou feliz com a notícia, por conta dos números do jogador de 30 anos. Assim, um corintiano analisou a contratação como arriscada, […]
How USMNT Gold Cup hero Diego Luna quickly became a Mauricio Pochettino favorite after flirting with Mexico
It was not Diego Luna's first time with the U.S. men's national team but the abridged version of the story arc begins with an elbow to the face. In the first half of the USMNT's 3-0 win over Costa Rica last winter, an otherwise unmemorable match during the annual but frequently inconsequential January camp, Luna's nose was broken, blood rushing out of both of his nostrils. It inspired a great quote out of head coach Mauricio Pochettino, who was just months into the job, but more importantly, it is the origin story of the 21-year-old's quick rise from international obscurity to a national team mainstay."I was very surprised, because it was broke, you know?" Pochettino said in a post-match interview. "But I didn't want to say nothing [with] too much drama, because [it might] scare him. I said, 'How do […]

<!--> The same day he got selected to start an All-Star Game for the first time, Francisco Lindor was removed from the leadoff spot Wednesday night with the New York Mets in a major slump.And the move paid off immediately.After making 191 consecutive starts at the top of the lineup, Lindor batted second as the designated hitter in the finale of a day-night doubleheader against the Milwaukee Brewers and their rookie sensation, right-hander Jacob Misiorowski.Brandon Nimmo returned to the leadoff slot and launched a grand slam off the hard-throwing Misiorowski in the second inning. Lindor followed with his 17th home run to give the Mets a 5-0 lead, then added an RBI single with two outs in the sixth.A slumping Lindor went 0 for 4 as New York mustered only two hits during a 7-2 loss in the opener, leaving […]
Nationals CF Jacob Young makes wild home run robbery after scaling wall in win over Tigers
Jacob Young had absolutely no issue scaling up the outfield wall at Nationals Park on Wednesday night.The Nationals’ outfielder made his way up the wall in ridiculous fashion on Wednesday night and came up with what will easily be among the best home run robberies of the season.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementYoung, in the ninth inning of their 9-4 win over the Detroit Tigers, started tracking a deep shot from Riley Greene that appeared to be on pace to be a solo home run. But as he got to the wall, Young didn’t hesitate. He planted both feet onto the wall, climbed up and snagged the ball before it could cross over.He even made the catch backhanded, too, which made it that much more impressive.While it was a huge grab, it didn’t make much of an impact on the game. The Nationals flew ahead […]
USWNT revives set piece dominance with 3-0 win over continental rival Canada
The third and final match for the U.S. women’s national team in its busy window, and arguably its toughest test against continental opponents Canada, ended with their third consecutive victory. The USWNT sealed a 3-0 victory at Audi Field in Washington, DC in front of a sold-out crowd Tuesday evening.AdvertisementGoals from midfielders Sam Coffey and Claire Hutton opened the scoring in the first half; both were results of set pieces delivered by the third midfielder in their lineup, Rose Lavelle. Second half substitutes Yazmeen Ryan and Tara McKeown combined in the second half to bring the U.S. up to three.Coffey’s 17th-minute goal was her third in the last five games for the U.S., and Hutton’s, a head nod off a corner kick in the 36th minute, was her first for the U.S. senior team.Fifty-three minutes later, McKeown, who was very […]
