In a period like no other, the world of golf finds itself in a battling civil war following the controversial introduction of the Saudi-backed LIV Golf Invitational Series last week. The newly born circuit has seemingly trampled on the soul of the sport, leaving the iconic traditions and integrity in its wake. The mega money on offer has lured away some of the golf’s biggest names - with the likes of Bryson DeChambeau, Phil Mickelson, Dustin Johnson and Ian Poulter all pledging their allegiances to Greg Norman’s new Saudi-backed golfing empire. Despite pocketing millions, the breakaway rebels could well have surrendered their biggest asset of all in PGA Tour membership. LIV Golf’s founding playing members have all been issued suspensions from the PGA Tour’s chief Jay Monahan, with further sanctions from the likes of the Masters and Ryder Cup expected. As well as the sport’s leading circuit turning its back on the LIV rebels, a number of fellow stars - and friends - have … [Read more...] about US Open provides much-needed break from trials and tribulations of LIV Golf civil war

Ian Poulter is set to appeal his suspension from the PGA Tour after competing in this week’s LIV Golf Invitational Series event in St Albans. Poulter is one of many stars who has joined the controversial circuit, and is playing at Centurion Club this week. Within minutes of the inaugural event kicking off on Thursday, PGA Tour commissioner Jay Monahan revealed that all those competing on the rebel circuit were in fact suspended. In a statement the Tour boss said: “Their participation in the Saudi Golf League/LIV Golf event is in violation of our Tournament Regulations. "The same fate [suspension] holds true for any other players who participate in future Saudi Golf League events in violation of our Regulations.” Following the sanction, Poulter revealed he would be appealing the decision, describing the ban as making ‘no sense’. While competing in Hertfordshire, he said: “I will appeal for sure. It makes no sense. “Having two Tour cards and the ability to play golf all … [Read more...] about Ian Poulter to appeal PGA Tour ban of LIV Golf players as civil war continues to erupt

Several influential left-wing celebrities — including A-list actors Harrison Ford, Mark Hamill, Sam Elliott, and Martin Sheen —  have lent their voices to the anti-Trump Lincoln Project, which now faces mounting criticisms and questions following damning accusations lodged against one of its co-founders, John Weaver, who has been accused of sending sexually explicit messages to young men. The super PAC, founded by anti-Trump Republicans, attracted support from high-profile Democrats who shared the common goal of ousting former President Trump from office. Left-wing celebrities gravitated toward the organization which gained fame as co-founder George Conway routinely criticized Trump, even as his wife, Kellyanne Conway, served as the president’s adviser. On September 11, 2020, for example, Conway declared Trump the “greatest threat to the safety and security of Americans.” But now, the organization faces unprecedented criticism as one of its co-founders, John Weaver, faces … [Read more...] about Harrison Ford, Sam Elliott, Martin Sheen, Mark Hamill Narrated Lincoln Project Political Ads

Now that their woke animated feature Lightyear has taken a record dive at the box office, the child groomers at the Walt Disney Co. must be truly bummed. Lol. Other than Onward (2020) — which doesn’t count because the coronavirus derailed its second weekend — LIghtyear currently holds the record for the worst second-weekend box office dive in Pixar’s 25-year history. After opening to a disastrous $51 million, in its second weekend, Lightyear earned just $17.7 million, which is a crash of 65 percent . This is a Toy Story movie. Lightyear is part of the most popular and iconic animated franchise in the universe, and after ten days and two weekends, it still sits at a pathetic $88.8 million domestic. Worldwide, it’s earned just $152 million. The production alone cost $200 million. Add another $100 million for advertising. In order to break even, Disney needs to see a worldwide take of at least $550 to 650 million, which will not happen. So Lightyear will … [Read more...] about Nolte: Woke ‘Lightyear’ Second-Weekend Box Office Hits Record Pixar Low

As we enter into Pride month, Brittney Griner—a Black lesbian and WNBA All-Star—enters into her fourth month of wrongful detainment in Russia. Griner’s case has shed light on the continued criminalization of cannabis—an injustice that is rooted in the “War on Drugs” both at home and abroad. It should also galvanize fans, public officials, and LGBTQ+ advocacy organizations to use their voices to fight against marijuana prohibition, a policy that’s rooted in racism and homophobia. To be fair, as outrage over Brittney’s situation has grown, organizations like the National LGBTQ Task Force, GLSEN, Human Rights Campaign , and the National Black Justice Coalition condemned this act by Russia as racist and homophobic and put out statements of support for Brittney. However, most of these statements left out a timely criticism of the global “War on Drugs” and the way it has criminalized cannabis, the substance for which Griner was allegedly detained. It’s easy to attribute Griner’s … [Read more...] about Brittney Griner Is a Rallying Cry for the LGBTQ+ Community to Fight for Cannabis Criminal Justice Reform

This is a carousel. Use Next and Previous buttons to navigate 23 TAMPA, Fla. (AP) — The Tampa Bay Lightning didn’t relinquish their grip on the Stanley Cup without a fight. Andrei Vasilevskiy rejected shot after shot, keeping the two-time defending champions’ quest for a threepeat alive. In the end, another superb performance by the star goaltender wasn’t enough to keep the Colorado Avalanche from wresting the title away. “It definitely stings," defenseman Ryan MacDonagh said. The Lightning were 3-0 when facing possible elimination before Sunday night’s 2-1 loss in Game 6 stopped their bid to become the first team to win three consecutive Stanley Cup championships since the New York Islanders captured four in a row from 1980-83. Steven Stamkos got them off to a fast start, scoring from in front of Darcy Kuemper less than … [Read more...] about Defending champion Lightning’s bid for 3-peat falls short

Pop star Pink has made her feelings towards the anti-abortion movement incredibly clear, suggesting they never listen to her music ever again. In the light of the overturning of Roe v. Wade , the singer, whose real name is Alecia Beth Moore, sent out an impassioned tweet over the weekend. There has been a number of protests held since the Supreme Court made a ruling that returns "the issue of abortion to the people's elected representatives." Celebrities have reacted with fury while Democratic politicians have also voiced their disapproval of the Supreme Court's decision. Musician Olivia Rodrigo even staged a musical protest against the decision at the Glastonbury music festival in the U.K. "Let's be clear: if you believe the government belongs in a woman's uterus, a gay persons business or marriage, or that racism is okay," Pink wrote on Twitter , before continuing, in all caps, "Then please in the name of your lord never f******listen to my music again." She … [Read more...] about Pink urges anti-abortion fans not to listen to her music: “We’re fine”

The DP World Tour have today announced punishments for the Saudi golf defectors with the sport's civil war escalating. A number of the Tour's biggest names - including Sergio Garcia, Lee Westwood and Ian Poulter - made the controversial LIV Golf switch ahead of the inaugural event earlier this month. In response to those who chose to sign on the dotted line with Greg Norman's new golfing empire, the PGA Tour issued suspensions to the rebels , with US stars such as Brooks Koepka, Dustin Johnson, Phil Mickelson and Bryson DeChambeau all being handed the punishment. Two weeks on, their European allies at the DP World Tour have now followed suit with sanctions of their own, issuing all those competing on the breakaway circuit £100,000 fines for competing without permission from the Wentworth-based tour. As well as this, the Saudi golf rebels will also be banned from competing in the Genesis Scottish Open, the Barbasol Championship (July 7-10) and the Barracuda Championship … [Read more...] about Saudi golf defectors sanctioned by DP World Tour as they follow PGA in stamping down

Phil Mickelson has responded to scathing criticism from the families of 9/11 victims over his decision to join the Saudi-backed LIV Golf. The controversial series has sent the golfing world into a state of civil war as Mickelson, and a number of other stars, defected to the rival circuit, which is bankrolled by Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund. The series’ inaugural event took place last week, which saw South African and former Masters champion Charles Schwartzel take home $4.75m. However, the event was dominated by questions of sportswashing as golfers were quizzed on the moral implications of taking part in an event funded by Saudi Arabia. That criticism continued as families of the victims from the 9/11 terrorist attacks came together to send a scathing letter to Mickelson as well as fellow American LIV Golf participants Bryson DeChambeau, Kevin Na, Dustin Johnson and Patrick Reed. In the letter they urged the golfers to reconsider their decision to be associated … [Read more...] about Phil Mickelson addresses 9/11 families’ scathing letter as he defends LIV Golf stance
