Kentucky Oaks moves to primetime TV for the first time in 2026
LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — The Kentucky Oaks is shifting to primetime for the 152nd edition of the race for 3-year-old fillies. It will be run at 8 p.m. ET on NBC and streaming on Peacock on May 1, 2026, Churchill Downs and NBC Sports announced Thursday. The $1.5 million race that is traditionally held the day before the Kentucky Derby has had a post time shortly before 6 p.m. ET for years. Next year will be the first time it's been run as late as 8 p.m., which puts it in twilight in the Eastern Time Zone. 'By moving the Kentucky Oaks to primetime, we're giving one of horse racing's most treasured traditions the national stage it deserves,' said Bill Carstanjen, CEO of Churchill Downs. 'This decision is rooted in our commitment to growing the sport, reaching new audiences and creating unforgettable experiences for our fans.' The 152nd Kentucky Derby will air May 2 on NBC and streaming on Peacock. The race typically goes off shortly after 7 p.m. ET. This year's Derby, won by Sovereignty, was the most watched edition since 1989. The audience averaged an NBC record of 17.7 million, peaking at 21.8 million from 7-7:15 p.m. ET during the race. Last year, NBC Sports and Churchill Downs extended their deal to air the Derby through 2032, making the network the longest running home of the race. It first aired on NBC in 2001. ___ AP horse racing:

Gotterup Surging, Finau Searching As FedExCup Stakes Rise At 3M Open

(Photo by Mike Egerton/PA Images via Getty Images) The pro golf world may still be basking in the afterglow of Scottie Scheffler's bravura fourth major victory, but while fans pause to reflect on whether the current world No. 1 may be echoing Tiger in his prime, the tour has pressed onto Minnesota for the 3M Open. With only two events to go in the regular season, the stakes are elevated at TPC Twin Cities as players battle to improve their position in the FedExCup standings. For those hovering around the bubble, the margins are as thin as Scotch Tape and there's way more on the line than simply a share of the 3M Open's $8.4 million purse. The top 70 after next week's Wyndham Championship advance to the FedExCup Playoffs. Golfers who finish in the top 50 in the standings after the FedEx St. Jude move on to the BMW Championship and from there only the top 30 will be left standing and go on to East Lake in Atlanta for the Tour Championship. Beyond the immediate postseason horizon, to secure spots in next year's lucrative signature events, players must stick inside the top 50 when the season is in the bag. Otherwise, they'll need to punch their ticket via the Aon Next 10, Aon Swing 5, or else hold onto the hope of a sponsor's exemption. PORTRUSH, NORTHERN IRELAND - JULY 20: Tony Finau of the United States acknowledges the crowd on the ... More 18th green during day four of The 153rd Open Championship at Royal Portrush Golf Club on July 20, 2025 in Portrush, Northern Ireland. (Photo by) Tony Finau is tied with Xander Schauffele for the longest active streak of Tour Championship appearances with eight straight East Lake appearances. But the Utah native isn't quite on solid footing to extend his run to nine. The six-time PGA winner, who topped the leaderboard here in 2022, finds himself perched at 59th in the standings, inside the top 70 but still shy of that all-important top 50 cutoff, so he's got work to do. 'It's definitely in the back of my mind because I know how important that top-50 number has become on the PGA Tour,' Finau said in his pre-tournament press conference. 'I'm trying to put myself in a situation to have a chance to win on Sunday this week and if I'm able to do that, then I know the points and everything will take care of themselves,' he added. Gotterup Rising You don't have to scroll too far back on the calendar to the days when Chris Gotterup wasn't on most golf fans' radar. Sure, he'd won the inaugural Myrtle Beach Classic last year—an opposite-field event—but his sophomore season on the PGA Tour had been more steady than spectacular. He notched nine top-25 finishes, offset by just as many missed cuts. But then cue up Born To Run. Gotterup vaulted 55 spots in the FedExCup standings in the space of a fortnight, outdueling Rory McIlroy to win the Scottish Open and showing he had staying power by coming in third in the Open Championship. No one would begrudge the New Jerseyan if he took a week off after his cross-the-pond breakout, but Gotterup wants to keep the pedal to the metal. 'I'm trying to ride the hot hand obviously right now, so that's goal No. 1.,' Gotterup said. '3M gave me a spot a couple years ago when I came out of school and I felt like I kind of owe a little something back to them. I was planning on playing but that definitely helped,' he added. Now firmly inside the top 30 in the FedExCup standings, Gotterup is navigating uncharted territory—and embracing the moment. 'I feel like I'm playing with house money at the moment, especially with what's happened. I'm excited for the rest of the season.'

Who's in, who has work to do to make the top 70 for 2025 FedEx Cup Playoffs?
The race is on to the 2025 FedEx Cup Playoffs. There are just four events left (two this week) over the next three weeks for players to stay or get inside the top 70. That's the new rule in 2025, only the top 70 players earn playoff spots. The three FedEx Cup Playoff events are the same: the FedEx St. Jude Championship in Memphis, the BMW Championship, played this year at Caves Valley Golf Club in Owings Mills, Maryland, and then the Tour Championship at East Lake in Atlanta, where a new format will be used this season. FedEx Cup stadings Nos. 1-5 Just a slight change at the top of the standings with Thomas and Henley flipping spots. Position Name 1 Scottie Scheffler 2 Rory McIlroy 3 Sepp Straka 4 Justin Thomas 5 Russell Henley FedEx Cup standings Nos. 26-30 Top 30 is actually the key place to be as only the top 30 advance to the Tour Championship. The last five in for the top 30 looks like this: Position Name 26 Daniel Berger 27 Sungjae Im 28 Ryan Fox 29 Brian Campbell 30 Jacob Bridgeman FedEx Cup standings Nos. 46-50 To make the second leg of the playoffs at the BMW, golfers need to be inside the top 50. Position Name 46 Bud Cauley 47 Joe Highsmith 48 Jordan Spieth 49 J.T. Poston 50 Max Greyserman FedEx Cup standings Nos. 61-70 But you can't make East Lake or the BMW if you don't first make it to Memphis for the St. Jude. Here's the last five in for a top-70 spot: Position Name 66 Matti Schmid 67 Emiliano Grillo 68 Davis Thompson 69 Eric Cole 70 Alex Smalley So that makes Smalley this week's bubble boy. He was No. 70 in the official rankings a week ago as well. FedEx Cup standings Nos. 71-75 And here's the first five out, with Rickie Fowler, playing in the Open Championship this week, the first one on the wrong side of the line. He was 68 a week ago. It's not an unfamiliar position for Fowler, who was hovering around the top 100 cutoff mark a year ago. He's 30 or so spots better this year but because of the reduction to 70, he's walking a fine line once again. Position Name 71 Rickie Fowler 72 Chris Kirk 73 Gary Woodland 74 Kevin Roy 75 Christiaan Bezuidenhout Movers up and down in the latest FedEx Cup Playoffs standings Like Fowler, Chris Kirk has slid from inside the top 70 to out. Kirk was 69th a week ago and now he's 72nd. With someone sliding out, someone else slides in and that someone this week is Matt Fitzpatrick, who went from 73rd to 60th in the standings after a tie for fourth at the Genesis Scottish Open on Sunday.
