ST. ANDREWS, Scotland — Late Saturday evening, seven-time LPGA winner I.K. Kim received word that she’d be first off Sunday morning at the AIG Women’s Open, at 7:10. A chilly final round awaited in the wind and rain, not to mention another pre-dawn wakeup. But before she could tuck into bed, Kim, who is 36, had an important job to do. She had to alert her loved ones that this final round would be the final round. She was retiring.

CASTLE ROCK, Colo. — It already was a year to remember for Keegan Bradley but it became even more memorable on this day, in this place, when he was a captain marvel. Six weeks after he was named captain of the 2025 U.S. Ryder Cup team, Bradley, 38, demonstrated a game still good enough to compete with the best by winning the BMW Championship at Castle Pines Golf Club on Sunday. The irony is that with this victory he played his way into consideration for a spot on this year’s U.S. Presidents Cup team, a year after he was snubbed for a place on the 2023 U.S. Ryder Cup team.

But Furyk knows the waiting for automatic qualifying to end, which it did Sunday with the top 6 in U.S. points earning a spot on his team, was the easy part. Now comes the challenging part.

There are some dishes that just seem to always taste better at restaurants, and Caesar salads are a perfect example. When a stellar Caesar is brought to the table, the dressing tastes more vibrant. The Parmesan boasts a more nuanced flavor. Even the lettuce stands out for being markedly better than what we typically put together at home. There are reasons for that — but they’re all things that amateur cooks can easily replicate in their home kitchens, which is why we talked to Keegan Hughes, the chef at The Gallery, Sand Valley Resort’s latest eatery, which specializes in cuisine from central and southern Italy.
