Don’t get distracted by the Team USA’s rally in singles - they have now lost 9 of the last 12 Ryder Cups, including three at home. How did we get here, and does the U.S. have the will to make the necessary changes? Put a lot into this one for @Skratch. skratch.golf/news/pro-golf/…
I’d like to congratulate @RyderCupEurope on their victory. Your team play the first few days was sensational. More importantly, I’d like to apologize for the rude and mean-spirited behavior from our American crowd at Bethpage. As a former player, Captain and as an American, I…
So this is cool: Here's an article on @TheAthletic today... by Steven Kwan. How the two-time All-Star deals with nerves and stress on the baseball field and how he has navigated his way through a wild season nytimes.com/athletic/66603…
I had never heard of Lamar Wilkerson. Great story. nytimes.com/athletic/66244…
From @TheAthletic: American kids spend twice as much time in organized sports as playing for fun. Many parents fear that their children will fall behind if they don't specialize in a sport early. But research argues otherwise. nyti.ms/41N2dVi
A former major-leaguer’s next pitch: Develop a bright baseball future for Native American players. Story: nytimes.com/athletic/66108…
From @TheAthletic: Rafael Nadal's life after tennis has not yet seen him pick up a racket. But he has plenty of opinions about its new stars. nyti.ms/3JP5HAv

Daniil Medvedev made his frustrations known after a cameraperson walked onto the court at match point. “[The referee] wants to go home. ... He gets paid by the match, not by the hour,” Medvedev said into the camera. 🎥 @espn
From @TheAthletic: At the 1993 ESPYs, legendary basketball coach Jim Valvano delivered one of the most powerful speeches in sports history. The message remains indelible, an emotional tour de force on life, death and hope. nyti.ms/4mz56Be
Why did Jacque Vaughn turn down two NBA jobs to return to be an assistant at Kansas? “I wanted to be depended on.” I sat down with Jacque to talk about his new job and his journey: nytimes.com/athletic/65606…
From @TheAthletic: Mets Dog, aka Sushi the pitbull, is a fixture outside Citi Field. She is cute, friendly, and fans pay to pose with her. She hardly moves for hours at a time. Many allege that they’re witnessing dog abuse, couched as a harmless photo op. nyti.ms/45zbstq
Good look at leadership, Andy Reid style. From @rustindodd. nytimes.com/athletic/62103…

From @TheAthletic: A Little League coach made a dad joke during a tense game. The moment went viral. It was equal parts strange, funny and endearing, our columnist writes. "Sometimes the best coaching has nothing to do with baseball." nyti.ms/4lpp7Jj
Ladies and gentlemen…. Johnny Dead Skies🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
My friend @JoshuaWSharpe helped free a man from prison after two decades for a double-murder he didn't commit. The story is chronicled in a new book, The Man No One Believed. It's an important look at the justice system. Read this WaPo review: img3.washingtonpost.com/books/2025/08/…
I’m excited to announce I’ve joined @TheAthletic and will be covering the Kansas City Chiefs, starting today. Can’t wait to get started with the nation’s top sports newsroom — while joining a bunch of talented writers I’ve admired for a long time.
