What majors has Scottie Scheffler won?

Yahoo2 days ago
Entering Sunday's final round at The Open Championship, Scottie Scheffler was in a prime position.
Not only did the 29-year-old have a several-stroke lead thanks to a dominant first three rounds, but he also actually started adding to it over the course of the day. He was truly piecing together an all-around masterpiece.
Provided Scheffler simply enters a veritable cruise control, this year's Open Championship seems like it's far and away his to lose. He's just been that good, that locked in, that focused. He's playing it's his major to win, and no one else even has a realistic chance:
Now, given his youth, you might be wondering the all-too-pertinent question: at the time of this writing, how many majors has Scheffler already won? And actually, he's already on a pretty good pace, especially provided he closes out the Open. To date, Scheffler has won The Masters twice (2022 and 2024), and he also has the 2025 PGA Championship to his name. Which, phew.
To put it lightly, three majors at this stage in Scheffler's career, particularly two green jackets already, is nothing to sneeze at.
Which majors does Scheffler still have to win to complete a career Grand Slam?
We can do math and engage in some deductive reasoning after all this discussion, can't we?
At the time of this writing, Scheffler has never won the U.S. Open, and he has never won The Open Championship. His best finish at the U.S. Open was as the runner-up in 2022. Before the 2025 edition of The Open, his best finish at the tournament was taking home seventh place in 2024. Provided he maintains his composure, it sure looks like he'll only need to win the U.S. Open after this to say he's won every major.

Official – Ex Inter Milan Striker Joins Red Star Belgrade On Short-Term Contract

Former Inter Milan striker Marko Arnautovic has joined perennial Serbian champions Red Star Belgrade on a short-term deal. According to Calciomercato, the veteran center-forward has signed a one-year contract at Stadion Rajko Mitic. This move is the fulfillment of the 36-year-old's childhood dream. Indeed, Marko Arnautovic has never hidden his love for Red Star. On the contrary, he had reiterated his ambition to wear the red-white shirt multiple times in the past. Ex Inter Milan Ace Marko Arnautovic Joins Red Star Belgrade Despite captaining Austria's national team, Arnautovic has Serbian origins. Furthermore, he fluently speaks Serbian and maintains strong ties to the country through his family. Meanwhile, his transfer to Red Star is not only a sentimental homecoming. It should also help the 1991 European Cup winners gain a foothold in the Champions League next term. It's also worth noting that Red Star tried to sign Arnautovic last summer. However, the deal was not feasible. Arnautovic made 65 appearances for Inter and won two Serie A titles, an Italian Super Cup, and a Champions League over two spells.

A school in Cardiff now has a purpose-built esports room

Pupils at a school in Cardiff will be able to play Overwatch 2, League of Legends and Minecraft competitively in schools, as part of a plan to boost their academic, technical, and personal skills which teachers say will help teach transferable skills ready to start their careers. They will be able to use the space, before, during and after school and some will be able to choose esports as an option from year 9. Cardiff council has given Mary Immaculate High School in Caerau, Cardiff, £130,000 to kit out a room with 25 gaming PCs and two Formula 1 simulators. Students can also study esports as part of the Key Stage 4, with a BTEC in esports being offered from Year 9 to pupils who have an attendance record of at least 90%.

The esports industry is rapidly growing as gaming becomes more popular, making £3.5 billion globally, and £184 million in the UK. Adam Speight, acting assistant headteacher at Mary Immaculate, said esports is much more than just gaming. He said: "Esports is opening doors to a wide range of career pathways. "For example, the military is actively recruiting gamers to operate drones, the events industry needs people to organise large-scale esports tournaments, and the technology sector requires IT professionals to build and maintain the infrastructure needed for these events to take place. "We are proud to be one of the first schools in Wales – and indeed the UK – to have a purpose-built facility dedicated to esports. "We recognised the importance of this fast-growing industry and decided it should be part of our curriculum. "We have to move away from thinking about traditional subjects to thinking what careers are out there in the modern world and what contemporary qualifications are available that will give pupils the transferable skills they need for the jobs of the future." As well as being an extra-curricular area for pupils, the main aim is to support learning in areas such as teamwork, communication, strategic thinking, digital literacy, and event management. The Esports suite was developed by YoyoTech. Michael Stevens, business development executive at YoyoTech, said: "Esports is a huge area for growth in education. "It's a lot more than teaching pupils how to be a professional gamer; it's teaching them about the industry and everything that goes with it, from digital media creation and social media to marketing and event management."

Bob Bubka, longtime voice of golf, dies at 83

Bob Bubka, known for his velvety voice as one of the longtime voices of golf, died on Saturday at age 83. His "Musings on Golf" podcast co-host, Kelly Elbin, confirmed that it was due to congestive heart failure. For a quarter century, Bubka was the golf correspondent for TalkSport in the United Kingdom, which is recognized as the world's biggest sports radio station, during a career that spanned six decades. "His velvety, iconic voice carried with it the passion and love that Bob had for the game and the people he covered along the way," Elbin wrote in a tribute to his friend and podcast partner on Facebook. "He was, indeed, the Voice of Golf." Bubka, who grew up in Sag Harbor, N.Y., started working in radio in 1964, covering high school football locally at WLGN in Long Island, and provided sports commentary to the station for more than 50 years. He began covering golf in the 1980s, working for Westwood One and the PGA Tour Radio Network, including his "Outside the Ropes" show. Among his many claims to fame, he was the first member of the media to interview Jack Nicklaus after he won the 1986 Masters. Bubka and Nicklaus maintained a longstanding relationship and when Nicklaus was made an honorary citizen of St. Andrews, Scotland, during the 2022 British Open, Nicklaus invited him to be his guest at the ceremony. Bubka also penned a book on the history of the Ryder Cup, and counted the biennial competition among his favorite events. He would've been particularly proud of the 2025 Ryder Cup being played at Bethpage Black in late September, not far from where he grew up. In 2000, Bubka landed a job with Talk Sport, bringing his booming New York tones to the UK sports radio station. Bubka traveled the world, covering more than 130 major golf championships. In his later years, he lived outside of Houston with partner Janis Self, the executive producer of his podcast. Bubka's Talk Sport producer Sean O'Brien recalled once asking Bubka why he kept working long hours during major championships, providing updates around the clock long past the typical age of retirement when he easily could have "sailed off into the sunset and basked in the glory of an extraordinary broadcasting career." 'You could spend every day on the beach,' O'Brien told him. 'But Sean, this is my beach,' Bubka responded. "Bob gave golf its most recognizable voice, and in return, golf gave him a sense of purpose — and he dedicated his life to covering it well," O'Brien said. For the last 25 years, Rupert Bell was Bubka's partner in crime. 'Radio is about voices," Bell said. "There is no doubt when you heard Bob Bubka speak, it just grabbed you." In recent years, he and Elbin teamed up to do a popular podcast, "Musings on Sports," which morphed into "Musings on Golf." Through their vast network of relationships in the game, they welcomed a who's who of guests from Jim Nantz to, most recently, Lee Trevino over the course of more than 150 shows. "What a thrill it was for me to partner with the guy who always called me, 'my man,'" Elbin said. This article originally appeared on Golfweek: Golf announcer Bob Bubka dies at 83
