Scottie Scheffler is now a three-time major winner after coming out on top of the 2025 PGA Championship at Quail Hollow in Charlotte.
Before raising the Wanamaker Trophy on Sunday, the 28-year-old Scheffler sent a strong message to the rest of the field in the third round, grabbing the top spot on the leaderboard by putting together an impressive performance down the stretch.
An eagle on the 14th hole of that round set the table for Scheffler’s takeover, as he had three birdies in the final four holes. On the 18th, he birdied on a par-4 before letting out an expletive-laced celebration.
“[Expletive] yeah, baby,” the world’s No. 1 golfer was heard saying, per ESPN.
"I typically don't show much emotion,” Scheffler explained his action afterward. “I don't know how much I showed there. I don't really think about what I'm doing," Scheffler added.
"Wherever the emotion came from, felt like an important part of the round to finish off the round the right way."
Scheffler wasn’t as dominant in the fourth round, as he recorded four bogeys, but he did more than just enough to stave off the other challengers for the crown. Overall, Scheffler went 11-under through four rounds, five shots better than runner-ups Harris English, Bryson DeChambeau and Davis Riley.
With two Masters Tournament victories and a PGA Championship title, Scheffler needs to win the US Open and The Open Championship to complete a career grand slam.
So far in the 2025 PGA Tour season, the former Texas Longhorns golfer has two wins with seven top 10s and 10 top 25s in 10 starts.

Jerry Jones says Cowboys have made one trade, possibly more to come
Per Jon Machota of The Athletic, Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said on SiriusXM that they have made a trade. Jones also said they could make a couple more moves before Tuesday's 4 p.m. ET deadline. He said the player will be on the field immediately and implied it could be on the defensive side. “Immediately it will have him on the field and it will address some of the things that have been our shortcomings,” Jones said. Jones, 83, bought the team from Bum Bright back in 1989 for $140M and has raised the value to $10B. Since purchasing the team, Jones has operated as owner, team president, and general manager. He replaced HC Tom Landry with Jimmy Johnson, and shortly after, the team won three Super Bowls in 1992, 1993, and 1995, respectively. In 2014, Jones was named the league’s Executive of the Year, and he was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 2017.
Chiefs have a no-brainer trade target after loss vs. Bills
The last time the Kansas City Chiefs lost four games in a season, they went on to make the Super Bowl and beat the San Francisco 49ers. Six years have passed since, and Andy Reid's team will have to make some adjustments to replicate that fortune. That's especially evident after another heartbreaking regular-season loss to the Buffalo Bills, which exposed what might be the Chiefs' biggest flaw on offense: a lack of an explosive running game. That's why they need to pick up the phone and reach out to the New York Jets to trade for Breece Hall. Chiefs need to trade for Breece Hall According to Dianna Russini of The Athletic, the Jets are more than open to trading Hall, who's in the final year of his contract. "The Jets have been getting calls on RB Breece Hall for a while, and while there is interest, New York is looking for at least a third-round pick in return," wrote Russini. Hall is just 24 years old, and while he had a major injury as a rookie, he's been pretty durable since. This season, he's up to 117 carries for 581 rushing yards and two touchdowns, averaging 5.0 yards per carry. He also has 21 receptions on 30 targets for 178 receiving yards. The Chiefs average 121.2 rushing yards per game, the 12th most in the NFL. That's with Patrick Mahomes accounting for one-third of their rushing yards, though. Neither Isiah Pacheco — who's currently out with an injury — nor Kareem Hunt has been efficient, and rookie Brashard Smith might not be ready to take on a bigger role. The Chiefs ran for just 79 yards against a Bills defense that gives up the fourth-most rushing yards per game (141.4), and Hall could certainly fix those woes.
The Air Jordan 11 'Rare Air' Takes Flight This Week
Throughout 2025, Jordan Brand has rightfully focused most of its attention on the 40th anniversary of the Air Jordan 1. However, this year also marks 30 years since the Air Jordan 11 first took flight. In September, Jumpman announced the upcoming release of nine Air Jordan 11 colorways scheduled to be released over several months. One of the most anticipated drops takes place this week. After minor drops at select boutiques last month, the Air Jordan 11 "Rare Air" officially launches globally on Wednesday. Below is a detailed look and breakdown of everything shoppers must know to secure the sneakers. Release Information The Air Jordan 11 "Rare Air" colorway will launch globally at 10:00 a.m. EST on Wednesday, November 5. Online shoppers can buy the sneakers on the Nike SNKRS app, Foot Locker, and other select retailers. Unfortunately for fans, the old-school basketball shoes will not be released in full-family sizing. Instead, they will have a retail price of $235 in adult sizes and $190 in big kid sizes. Nike and Jordan Brand have released several fan-favorite sneakers throughout this year. Despite all of the exciting drops, consumers can still expect these kicks to sell out quickly. Those who miss the initial drop can find the Air Jordan 11 "Rare Air" on trusted sneaker resale websites like StockX and GOAT. Details The "Rare Air" colorway is not an OG colorway, but a new design sporting a vintage aesthetic. Jordan Brand has applied the same pre-aged treatment to the Air Jordans 1, 3, and 4 already this year. Built to close the Rare Air series with a bang, the Air Jordan 11 "Rare Air" sports a tumbled Sail leather that fuses with Fire Red and Deep Royal Blue color-blocking, interchangeable laces, and a tinted outsole for a touch of heritage. Additional details include "Rare Air" on the insoles, Jumpman logos, and Jordan's #23 on the heels. Last but not least, the polarizing 'Jordan' lettering returns for this colorway. Tech Specs Like most of us, the Air Jordan 11 has aged off the basketball court. While the retro hoop shoe is no longer suitable for the hardwood, it still contains enough performance technology to make fans feel like Jordan dominating NBA arenas. All of the familiar performance technology is back. A ballistic-mesh upper keeps athletes fresh, while the full-length Air-Sole unit and Phylon midsole deliver a lightweight, firm ride underfoot. Lastly, the carbon fiber shank plate is still visible from the rubber outsole. The added stability, complemented by a legendary traction pattern, is a reminder of greatness with each step. History Jordan debuted the Air Jordan 11 on May 7, 1995, during Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals against the Orlando Magic. Of course, the Bulls lost that game and series. But Jordan's 11th signature sneaker is still synonymous with his comeback and return to the NBA after playing Minor League Baseball. The Air Jordan 11 "Rare Air" is a perfect tribute to one of the most popular silhouettes from the iconic sneaker line. The vintage design applied to the retro basketball shoe makes it a must-have for hoops fans this fall and winter. The holiday shopping season is just getting started, so fans can expect more exciting Air Jordans to be released over the coming weeks.

Angels Pegged as Top Landing Spot for All-Star Batting Champion in Free Agency
The Los Angeles Angels have several holes to address in their lineup this offseason, and MLB.com's Mark Feinsand believes they could make a move on All-Star and three-time batting champion Luis Arraez. Arraez spent the last season and a half with the Padres, where he continued to do what he does best: Put the ball in play. The utility infielder batted .304 through his two seasons with the Padres, ending his tenure in San Diego with an OPS+ above league average. He is the current active leader in batting average, and would be a key upgrade to the Angels offense. The Angels struggled for runs despite their home run numbers, which ranked fourth in MLB, in 2025, and having a batter like Arraez to get on base for those bombs would be a big plus for their offense. The Angels had the lowest batting average in MLB last season, so adding perhaps the best contact hitter in baseball could be a realistic change. "He still led the NL with 181 hits and ranked at the top of the league in whiff, strikeout and Squared-Up percentage, remaining one of the elite contact hitters in the game," Feinsand wrote. "Arraez’s below-average defense (-9 OAA) could cause some teams to look at him in a DH role, but he’ll be a solid presence in whatever lineup he winds up with." While his bat would be a boost to the offense, the Angels would definitely like to improve their defense as well before the 2026 season. The Angels' -53 outs above average last season were the worst in the major leagues. The Angels already have a long-term option at first base with a similar skillset in Nolan Schanuel, and will likely give Christian Moore a solid run of games at second next season. That would leave designated hitter as Arraez's best available position on the Angels, however they may not be able to accomodate that either with Mike Trout's health struggles. After suffering a bone bruise in April, Trout did not return to the field and served as the team's DH for the season. Feinsand also pegged the San Francisco Giants and Texas Rangers as viable options for Arraez. Latest Angels News
