Tyrrell Hatton goes nuclear, dropping f-bomb, c-bomb on PGA Championship live broadcast
Much of the powder-keg Englishman's, umm, charm on the golf course is that he always seems ready to blow and frequently looks more exasperated at good shots than bad.

At the Masters, he raised some eyebrows by complaining about the conditions of the famous greens, saying the late-day footprints were throwing him off and caused him to miss a one-foot putt.
Article content
'Yeah, that green had a ton of footprints and it's just one of those things that you're never really going to get around. Sometimes they bobble in for you and obviously that time it bobbled a miss for me … It's frustrating to come off the course and feel like you kind of have shot the worst score that you could every time. It was very easy to look stupid.'

After that Masters blow up, the 33-year-old was asked how he would have handled similar things as a younger man.

Three things we learned from the Formula 1 Hungarian Grand Prix
Ferrari may have endured another afternoon to forget in Hungary on Sunday with polesitter Charles Leclerc finishing fourth and Lewis Hamilton a disappointing 12th, but their underlying performance showed they could be challengers for victories this season. Article content Post-race analysis and reaction to Hamilton's emotional outbursts revealed a very different evaluation of a race dominated by runaway leaders McLaren. Article content Article content Two unhappy drivers and the speculation over Hamilton's form and future suggested Ferrari continued a downward spiral, but rivals and seasoned viewers said that simple conclusion is inaccurate. Article content Leclerc grumbled the team wrecked the 'one opportunity' to win this season, but he changed his view once he learned the cause of his car's mid-race loss of pace while leading. Article content He had thought a front wing set-up change, during a pit-stop, was his undoing, but Ferrari said it was something else which cost him around two seconds a lap. Article content Article content Boss Fred Vasseur did not reveal the problem, but stressed that Leclerc's recent form, including pole in Hungary and a podium in Belgium, confirmed their upgraded car was competitive — a view shared by rival team chief Andrea Stella of McLaren. Article content He said he thought Ferrari will be a 'contender for victories for the remainder of the season' while both Vasseur and Mercedes boss Toto Wolff said Hamilton would shine again, after the 40-year-old declared he was 'useless' and should be replaced. Article content Article content 'He's demanding,' said Vasseur. 'But I think it's also why he's seven-times world champion… I understand him and he will be back.' Article content Wolff, who guided Hamilton to six drivers' titles, said: 'That is Lewis, wearing his heart on his sleeve. It's what he felt very much when asked straight after that session and it was very raw. Article content 'But he is still the GOAT (greatest of all time) and he still has it (the talent to win an eighth title).' Article content Norris honesty reflects new age Article content This was in evidence as Carlos Sainz defended his friend and former McLaren team-mate Lando Norris' honesty. Article content Article content 'He opens up to the media and to people more than any other driver on the grid — and people use that against him,' said the Spaniard. Article content 'What you see on TV is what he is as a human being. He's very good at showing himself. I find it ironic and frustrating — he's the only guy being 100 percent genuine… and then people go back at him.'

"He bowled unbelievably well": Varun Aaron hails Siraj for his spell in 3rd session of Day 4 in Oval Test
London [UK], August 4 (ANI): Former Indian seamer Varun Aaron believes Mohammed Siraj and Prasidh Krishna delivered high-intensity overs, resulting in key wickets in the third session of the fifth Test on Day 4. Aaron felt Siraj was unlucky, bowling very well but not getting LBW calls. Siraj and Prasidh bowled a fiery spell post Tea, however Siraj didn't took any wicket in the final session but was bowling on tight length, while Prasidh cleaned up Jacob Bethell for five followed by centurion Joe Root for 105 in his following over. 'Siraj and Prasidh bowled five high-intensity overs each after tea, and that effort resulted in two crucial wickets. Siraj was quite unlucky, as he has been throughout the day--he bowled unbelievably well. So many of his deliveries hit the pad, but he just didn't get the LBW calls,' JioHotstar expert Varun Aaron said. At the end of the day's play, England were 339/6, with Jamie Overton (0*) and Jamie Smith (2*) unbeaten. England still need 35 runs to win, with uncertainty over whether Chris Woakes will come to bat or not after a shoulder injury. Aaron felt England find themselves in a tough spot and praised Indian skipper Shuman Gill for his smart captaincy post tea, which didn't allow easy singles to the visitors. 'England now find themselves in a tough spot, and I genuinely feel this break is going to do India a world of good. The bowlers get to rest, stretch, have a massage, and get some treatment from the physios. They can come back fresh and give it everything again. This post-tea session has been brilliant--accurate bowling, smart captaincy by Shubman Gill, who didn't allow easy singles, and two very important wickets,' he added. Centuries from Joe Root and Harry Brook put England in the driver's seat, while the Indian pace unit continues to give hope following a late fightback, as the action of the fifth and final Test at The Oval is all set to reach the final day on Monday due to rain and bad light interrupting proceedings during day four.

First Nations youth head to Europe for hockey tournaments
Players from the First Nations Voyageurs U16 Elite AA/AAA hockey team are seen at a farewell ceremony in Edmonton on Aug. 3, 2025, as they head to Europe to play against teams in Germany and Czechia. (CTV News Edmonton/Connor Hogg) First Nations hockey players from B.C., Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba are headed to Europe Monday to compete against teams in Czechia and Germany. Players from the First Nations Voyageurs U16 Elite AA/AAA gathered in Edmonton on Sunday for a send-off ceremony, celebrating the team's achievements as they begin their journey representing their nations on an international stage. Juliann Yellowbird, the team's manager, said the team is compiled of all young players who are First Nations with treaty status. 'These are the best of the best,' Yellowbird told CTV News Edmonton. The team was formed after Tobias Monaco of Germany and Kehewin First Nation Chief Gordon John reconnected in 2024. John had previously hosted Monaco for six months as an exchange student. In the fall of 2024, Monaco and John gathered allies in Canada and Germany to create an annual cultural sports exchange for young First Nations athletes in hockey and other sports. First Nations and sponsors help the players with funding for equipment and travelling. But the team is about more than just playing a game. 'The brotherhood that is created with this team is amazing,' said Yellowbird, adding that they include tradition, prayer and ceremony in their play. Lincoln Kitchemonia of Okanese First Nation, who has been playing Canada's game since he was six-years-old, said he feels more comfortable playing on an all-Indigenous team. 'You're more shy when you're playing with non-Indigenous people,' Kitchemonia said. 'Playing with this team, I feel comfortable … there's a whole different connection.' Friends, family and community members gathered at the Kihchihkaw Aski Sacred Site to see the 20 players off on their big adventure across the pond. Easton Houle from Dene Tha' First Nation said he has never been on a plane, let alone out of the country – but the nervousness is cut with excitement. 'I'm really excited because I get to see the world … not everybody gets that and I'm very grateful for that.' He said the support from his community at Sunday's farewell motivates him to accomplish his dreams. 'That's one thing about our culture, we have a strong community all the time.'
