TULSA, Oklahoma (Reuters) -Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy may not agree with the comments Phil Mickelson made before taking a self-imposed hiatus from the sport, but both said on Tuesday they miss not having him in the field this week to defend his PGA Championship title. Mickelson, who became golf's oldest major champion at last year's PGA Championship when he triumphed shortly before turning 51, stepped away from the game in February amid the reaction to comments he made regarding a Saudi-backed golf league. The six-times major champion's public image took a hit when the author of an unauthorised biography said the American golfer told him he was willing to look past Saudi Arabia's human rights record to gain economic leverage over the PGA Tour. Saudi Arabia's government has denied accusations of human rights abuses and Mickelson later apologised for the comments, which he said were off the record. Woods, speaking during his pre-tournament news conference at Southern Hills, … [Read more...] about Golf-Mickelson’s absence from PGA Championship felt by his peers

(Reuters) - Masters champion Scottie Scheffler said on Tuesday that despite figuring out a winning formula that has produced one of the best runs in recent memory, he remains as hungry as ever going into this week's PGA Championship. World number one Scheffler, a co-favourite for this week's PGA Championship at Southern Hills Country Club, said other than more requests for his autographs and people hollering his name, life has remained mostly the same. "Winning the Masters is a huge honour for me and we've definitely been able to enjoy that a little bit," Scheffler said at his pre-tournament news conference. "After a little while, it's kind of back to business and so I've been preparing and getting ready for this week." In his last major, Scheffler enjoyed the biggest win of his career with a three-stroke Masters victory in April to extend an impressive run during which he won four times in six starts. Scheffler, fresh off a share of 15th place at last week's AT&T Byron … [Read more...] about Golf-Masters champ Scheffler hungry as ever at PGA Championship

Republican Sens. are rejecting calls for gun control coming from President Joe Biden and other Democrats in the wake of the Buffalo, New York, mass shooting. The Hill notes Sens. John Barrasso (R-WY) Charles Grassley (R-IA) have made very clear gun control is a non-starter. On Tuesday, Barrasso responded to the Democrat push for gun control, saying, “It just doesn’t seem to be helpful to me to go after law-abiding citizens and our Second Amendment rights, so I’m going to continue to hold that position.” Grassley said, “I think I heard a Black person from Buffalo on television say that guns don’t kill, people kill. So what are you going to accomplish by gun control?” Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) sent out a fundraising email on Monday to fill his campaign coffers off of the Buffalo, New York, mass shooting. https://t.co/WnjHm1XKNk — Breitbart News (@BreitbartNews) May 18, 2022 Grassley was referencing the Buffalo resident who went viral in an interview after the … [Read more...] about Republican Senators Reject Gun Control as a Response to Buffalo Mass Shooting

Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) expressed frustration in the wake of the mass shooting in Buffalo, New York, that his legislation on gun control cannot get the votes necessary for passage. The Hill reported that Manchin made comments Monday, saying, “We can’t even get Manchin-Toomey, which didn’t violate anyone’s rights. It just said there should not be a commercial transaction unless there’s a background check.” Manchin said of his gun control bill, “It’s the most, I think it’s the most agreed upon, it’s the most accepted in the country and we can’t even get that done.” The Manchin-Toomey gun control package was created in the wake of the December 14, 2012, attack on Sandy Hook Elementary School. Numerous gun controls were included in the bill, the chief of which being an expansion of background checks. The bill failed, however, in part because background checks were not causal in the Sandy Hook attack. The guns carried by the attacker were stolen from his mother earlier in the … [Read more...] about Joe Manchin Frustrated His Gun Control Can’t Garner Votes for Passage

He was involved in the worship team at church, and was the drummer in a teen/young adult worship band. He was a tech nut and loved to program. "The truth is that Scripture says that all our days are numbered. That there is nothing we can do to add a single hour to our life. He knew that. Matthew 6: 25-34." … [Read more...] about Father pays tribute to “quirky” teen who died after beach hole collapsed
