Phil Mickelson, Bryson DeChambeau and nine other golfers from the LIV Golf circuit filed an antitrust lawsuit against the PGA Tour on Wednesday that challenges the golfers' suspensions.
The big picture: This is the beginning of a legal battle between LIV Golf and the PGA Tour, two rival circuits, which could redefine professional golf in the years to come. The Justice Department has already opened an investigation into the PGA over antitrust violations.
What once seemed impossible is now a reality: 23-year-old superstar Juan Soto is no longer a National, traded to the Padres for a historic haul.
The big picture: The Padres haven't made a non-pandemic postseason since 2006. Now, one of the league's most active GMs in A.J. Preller hopes his splashiest move yet will help them emerge from the Dodgers’ shadow.
Vin Scully, who provided the soundtrack of summer for Dodgers fans for 67 seasons and called baseball games in a way that made it feel like he was sitting in your living room, died Tuesday. He was 94.
What they're saying: Joe Davis, who replaced Scully in 2017, reported the news to viewers in the bottom of the fifth inning at Oracle Park where, fittingly, the Dodgers were playing the Giants.
Miami Dolphins owner Stephen Ross will be suspended over a tampering case involving quarterback Tom Brady, the NFL announced Tuesday.
Driving the news: The NFL in findings from a six-month probe said the Dolphins violated the league's anti-tampering policy by trying to sign Brady and former head coach Sean Payton while they were on contracts for other teams.
Why it matters: Woods' decision comes as many other major professional golfers have signed lucrative deals to compete in the LIV Golf circuit despite the tension between the event series and the PGA Tour.
