Novak’s Putter Changes His Season as Yamashita Wins Again
Andrew Novak captures his first solo PGA Tour title at the VidantaWorld Mexico Open, turning a weak putting game (ranked 158th in strokes‑gained putting) into a winning advantage by gaining over eight strokes on the greens and finishing 25‑under 259, five strokes ahead of Steven Fisk and Kristoffer Ventura. The win lifts Novak from 89th to 53rd in the FedEx Cup standings. Meanwhile, LPGA star Miyu Yamashita defends her Maybank Championship, posting a 22‑under 266 to beat Yan Liu by two, marking her third victory of the season and her fifth career title. Both players’ stats—Novak’s surge in putting and Yamashita’s 62% greens‑in‑regulation—highlight why they dominated their tournaments.

‘We’re Entering Our Competitive Phase“ AGM Jeff Kealty’s Rise In Nashville And San Jose’s Next Move

Bart Scott Says Jets Should Target Mac Jones, Not A First-Round QB
Former Jets stars Bart Scott and Willie Colon say New York’s 2‑4 start stems from “situational football” failures, not talent. They point to miscommunication on fourth‑down plays against the Patriots and question why rookie sensation Garrett Wilson isn’t getting more targets. Looking ahead, they believe a win over Miami or Las Vegas could bring the Jets to a 4‑4 record. Scott adds the team doesn’t need a first‑round QB; a veteran like former Patriots Pro Bowler Mac Jones or a second‑round prospect could solve the quarterback need.
