U.S. Girls' Junior primer: Players to watch, TV schedule, info
The 76th U.S. Girls' Junior begins Monday at Atlanta Athletic Club's Riverside Course in Johns Creek, Georgia. The format will be a familiar one – 36 holes of stroke play on Monday and Tuesday before the top 64 players advance to match play, which starts Wednesday. The 36-hole final will take place Saturday. Here is the TV schedule (all times ET): Friday, July 18 (Semifinals): 3 p.m.-5 p.m. (Peacock) Friday, July 18 (Semifinals): 9 p.m.-11 p.m. (Golf Channel, Tape Delay) Saturday, July 19 (Final): 3 p.m.-5 p.m. (Peacock) Saturday, July 19 (Final): 9 p.m.-11 p.m. (Golf Channel, Tape Delay) In the 156-player field are seven players ranked inside the top 100 of the World Amateur Golf Ranking, including No. 17 Asterisk Talley, who is already a USGA champion (2024 U.S. Amateur Four-Ball) and twice a USGA runner-up (2024 U.S. Girls' Junior and U.S. Amateur). Talley, 16, has also played a Curtis Cup, beating Lottie Woad in singles last year at Sunningdale, and was low amateur at last year's U.S. Women's Open. The player who beat Talley in both of those USGA championship finals last summer, Rianne Malixi, the 18-year-old who just missed the cut in the Evian Championship, is not competing. Talley is hoping to join Malixi, JoAnne Gunderson (1956) and Peggy Conley (1964) as the only players to win a U.S. Girls' Junior the year after finishing second. Talley's partner at the 2024 Four-Ball, Sarah Lim, is also in the field, as are this year's Four-Ball champions, Natalie Yen and Asia Young. The average age of the field is 16.42 with the oldest competitor, South Dakota signee Morgan Rupp, turning 19 later this month, and the youngest, Bella Simoes, just weeks from her 12th birthday. Two current college players are teeing it up – Wake Forest's Chloe Kovalesky and Memphis' Claire Swathwood. Sixteen countries are represented, including one competitor apiece from Bolivia, Lebanon, South Korea, Sri Lanka and Venezuela. Aside from Talley, here are 10 other players to watch: Kaya Daluwatte: The 16-year-old is Sri Lanka's top-ranked player and is playing in her first USGA championship. Her victories include last year's Nepal Amateur Open. Aphrodite Deng: Just 15 years old, but already the second-best player in the field per WAGR, where she is ranked No. 38. She won both the Junior Invitational at Sage Valley and AJGA Mizuho Americas Open earlier this year. Nikki Oh: The daughter of teaching pro Ted Oh, the 17-year-old Oh, a member of the Class of 2026, is one of seven U.S. National Development Team members in the field. She's ranked No. 76 in WAGR and is verbally committed to Stanford. Alexandra Phung: The 14-year-old from New York City is a two-time Drive, Chip and Putt national champion, including winning this year's 12-13 age division. Last year, she debuted on the AJGA and won the Junior All-Star at Meadowbrook in a playoff. Victoria Richani: The 17-year-old, who now lives in Corona, California, will make history as the first player representing Lebanon to play a U.S. Girls' Junior. She was the player of the year on the Southern California Junior Tour in 2022.

Mandatory Credit: Katie Goodale - Augusta Chronicle/USA TODAY NETWORK Katie Goodale / USA TODAY NETWORK via Imagn Images Scarlett Schremmer: Another U.S. National Team member, the 18-year-old Schremmer was a competitive surfer before transitioning to golf. She signed with Texas A&M last November and is the daughter of former LPGA player Patricia Ehrhart, who was low amateur at the 2022 U.S. Senior Women's Open. Schremmer advanced to the Round of 16 at both this championship and the U.S. Women's Amateur last summer. Bella Simoes: The youngest player in the field at 11 years old, Simoes won four straight IMG Junior World Championships from 2020 to 2023. She also became the youngest to attempt to qualify for the U.S. Women's Open two years ago. Alli Wiertel: The 16-year-old from Oswego, Illinois, is the daughter of Jason Wiertel, who caddies for Luke Clanton. Wiertel made the quarters of the Women's Western Junior last month. Natalie Yen and Asia Young: A package deal as the reigning Four-Ball champs and fellow Oregonians, Yen is an 18-year-old from West Linn who is signed to play at Texas A&M this fall while Young is a 16-year-old from Bend. Yen won last year's AJGA Annika Invitational and was a member of the U.S. Junior Solheim Cup team. She advanced to the Round of 16 at the U.S. Girls' Junior two years ago before losing to eventual champ Kiara Romero. Young has a couple notable junior wins this year, at the Callaway Junior at Canebrake and the Arizona Silver Belle Championship.

NHL Legend Bests Steph Curry, John Smoltz to Win American Century
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Competitive golf built on scorecards and birdies is fun, but fans go even more wild when all their favorite athletes swap their regular arsenal with golf clubs. That spirit was front and center at the American Century Championship, where retired NHL star Joe Pavelski pulled off a bold win on Sunday. It was not an easy job. The 41-year-old outpaced golf lover Stephen Curry, John Smoltz, and Taylor Twellman, piling up 73 points in total, including 29 on Sunday alone. His showdown included five birdies and a roaring eagle on the 18th hole. JOE PAVELSKI. WALK-OFF EAGLE TO WIN IT. 🦅 — NBC Sports (@NBCSports) July 13, 2025 Meanwhile, baseball Hall of Fame pitcher John Smoltz put up a strong fight with 28 points on Sunday. He finished second with 64 total points. Jake Owen followed in third with 62, and Taylor Twellman landed fourth at 61. Steph Curry, who won the event in 2023, was in contention until a costly double bogey on the final hole dropped him to fifth with 58 points. "It feels so good to finally get one," Pavelski said, holding the trophy. "Selfishly, I get to play a bunch of golf. It's a very competitive group out here and just an awesome setting."

The 4-time NHL All-Star additionally took home a $150,000 paycheck from the tournament's $750,000 purse. He becomes the third NHL player to win the event, joining Dan Quinn and Mario Lemieux. "I got the text last night from Quinny, little pep talk. Pretty awesome to go get one for the hockey guys," Pavelski said. "We're a tight-knit group. I know they were cheering for me. It's special to get it done." The fans were out in full force, many waving Sharks and Stars jerseys, and Pavelski noticed. "It doesn't go unnoticed when I hear you guys shouting, cheering from behind the rope," he said. "The hockey side is special, and the connections I had with the fans in San Jose and Dallas mean the world to me." More Golf: Travis Kelce strikes fan in the neck at American Century Championship
