You're locked in to Sports Desk, let's get into it.
Scottie Scheffler, the world's number one golfer, is staring down his first missed cut in nearly four years after a brutal two-over seventy-two at the Scottish Open. The defending PGA champion looked out of sorts at Royal Birkdale, and barring something dramatic, he'll be heading home early before the Open Championship build-up even gets going.
Meanwhile, the LeBron James sweepstakes are heating up on two fronts. The Miami Heat have a path to offer King James a seven million dollar deal, enough to bring him back to South Beach for a second chapter. At the same time, Golden State is reportedly exploring a Moses Moody trade that could free up the cap space needed to make their own run at LeBron. Two franchises, one king, and a free agency race that just got a whole lot more interesting.
And across the Atlantic, Liverpool are entering a new era on multiple fronts. Not only do they have a new head coach in Andoni Iraola, but now chief executive Michael Edwards is departing Fenway Sports Group before preseason even begins. That is significant structural change at one of the biggest clubs in the world, and Reds supporters will be watching closely.
That's your play-by-play. Sports Desk, back to the booth.
