Starting in the NHL, Minnesota Wild goalie Filip Gustavsson is headed for offseason hip surgery, and the timing couldn't be more uncertain. The procedure puts his availability for the start of training camp in serious doubt, leaving the Wild with real questions about their crease heading into a critical stretch of the offseason.
Shifting to the desert, Jacoby Brissett is skipping Arizona Cardinals OTAs as he pushes for starting quarterback money, and that's not a great look for a guy trying to win a locker room. New head coach and new staff already dealing with an absent signal-caller before a single regular season snap has been taken — not exactly the foundation you want to build on.
And on the golf course, Aaron Rai is riding the momentum of his first major championship all the way up the world rankings, vaulting twenty-nine spots to a career-high number fifteen. Meanwhile Jon Rahm is climbing back toward relevance at number twelve, reminding everyone that the LIV exile hasn't completely closed the door on his standing in the global game.
That's your play-by-play. Sports Desk, back to the booth.
