The PGA Tour has a lot on its plates these days with the emergence of the LIV Tour, players departing for said tour, and the seemingly never-ending negotiations with the Saudi Public Investment Fund (PIF) over a potential deal between the two organizations. The last thing the tour and Commissioner Jay Monahan need is for one of its crown jewels to come under scrutiny on the eve of the event. I'm talking about the FedEx Cup Playoffs.

In the mid-1970s, Good Timesmade a star of actor/comedian Jimmy 'JJ'/'Dynomite' Walker. However, behind the scenes, the tension between the stars was relatively challenging. According to what Jimmie Walker once relayed, most of the show's cast rarely had any interaction behind the camera. Walker didn't recall having any conversations with actress Esther Rolle, who played his TV mother, Florida Evans, or actor John Amos, who played James Evans, his TV mother.

John Daly and Bryson DeChambeau’s eagerly anticipated ‘Break 50’ episode is officially in the books. As the latest guest on golf’s version of ‘Hot Ones,’ Daly put on a show, hitting barefoot bombs and downing his signature Good Boy cocktails like pitchers of ice-cold lemonade on a hot summer day. That last detail is particularly notable not for the quantity Daly consumed—upwards of 20 by his count—but by how he stored them, in the, ahem, coolest golf-course cooler you have ever or will ever see. Take it away, king.
