Welcome to Sports Desk, let's get into it.
LA28 has officially unveiled the triathlon courses for the two thousand twenty eight Los Angeles Olympics, and the setting could not be more cinematic. Venice Beach will host the women's race, sending athletes through Pacific surf, past the neighborhood's iconic sign, and over its historic canal bridges — meaning the very first medals of the LA Games will be earned against one of the most recognizable backdrops in the world.
Shifting to the NFL, the question surrounding Ben Johnson is getting sharper by the day. The Chicago Bears head coach has built a reputation as one of football's elite offensive minds, but he's done it with former number one overall picks under center. Now, with Chicago facing real quarterback uncertainty, the league is about to find out whether Johnson is a true coaching genius or a product of exceptional talent around him. The answer matters for his legacy.
And at Medinah Country Club just outside Chicago, the Presidents Cup gets underway Thursday, and President Donald Trump is expected to make his presence felt on Sunday during the final round. Trump accepted an invitation from the PGA Tour to serve as honorary chairman, continuing a growing relationship between the tour and the sitting president. All eyes will be on that back nine.
That's your play-by-play. Sports Desk, back to the booth.
