Bryson DeChambeau Grabs Attention With Five-Word Message to Justin Bieber
Soon after, social media turned its eyes to another kind of golf buzz, one involving celebrities trading red carpets for green fairways. Justin Bieber, dressed in an all-white outfit (including a tank top), shared a flood of Instagram Reels over the weekend, showing off his swing. While his GHIN handicap remains a mystery, 'he isn't entering his scores,' as noted by golf sleuths, his passion for the game is clear.

That's when DeChambeau made a move—off the course and into Bieber's comments section, with five simple words:

'Let's film some golf content.'
It was enough to stir golf fans and pop culture junkies alike. The idea of a DeChambeau-Bieber collaboration suddenly didn't seem far-fetched. Imagine 'Breaking 50 with Justin Bieber' or a music video with the reigning U.S. Open winner walking beside the singer down the fairway.
With stars like Tiger Woods and Nelly Korda having attended the Met Gala in years past, golf's pop culture crossover seems overdue for another moment. DeChambeau's playful pitch to Bieber might just tee it up.
DeCha͏mbe͏a͏u will now arrive at the 2025 P͏GA Champion͏s͏hip͏ as a confiden͏t ͏threat to win the Wanamaker. For Bryson DeChambeau, ͏the͏ fourth ti͏me was a charm in 2025.

Is Pilates Political?
In early April, MaryBeth Monaco-Vavrik, a 24-year-old barre instructor and fitness influencer living in Washington, D.C., was sitting at the airport waiting for a flight to board when she had an idea for an Instagram Reel. Ms. Monaco-Vavrik studied political science and communications at Davidson College. It became a habit, she said in a recent interview, to 'always connect random things that don't seem to relate.' In that moment, she juxtaposed two concepts that had been on her mind: Pilates and President Trump. Grinning at the camera, and lip-syncing to a popular TikTok clip about the Broadway musical 'Wicked,' Ms. Monaco-Vavrik made her case: 'Does anyone want me to explain the connection between the popularization of Pilates & running instead of strength training… and the rise of extreme American authoritarianism?' She elaborated in the caption, saying that conservatism was correlated to 'smaller bodies,' and that curves were out and heroin chic was back in. Given our current political climate, she did not think it was surprising that the trend for 'Pilates arms' among 'Pilates girlies' was surging. A post shared by MaryBeth MV | Fitness & Culture Creator (@ Ms. Monaco-Vavrik was new to content creation in the fitness space — she posted her first Instagram Reels, focused on training tips and exercise advice, in February — and this particular post was, she said, somewhat spur of the moment. 'I made that Reel in five minutes sitting at the airport, just to put it out there,' she said. 'I was just like, 'Why not?'' She was not prepared for the reaction: two million views in two days, and nearly five million as of this writing. Want all of The Times? Subscribe.

Emma Navarro beats defending Wimbledon champ Barbora Krejcikova. There will be a first-time winner
LONDON -- LONDON (AP) — Emma Navarro describes herself as 'stubborn' and her tennis as 'scrappy.' The American's attitude and game both were in just the right places at Wimbledon on Saturday, when she pulled off another Grand Slam victory over a defending champion by eliminating Barbora Krejcikova 2-6, 6-3, 6-4. Sending an ill and dizzy Krejcikova home in the third round, the 10th-seeded Navarro extended a recent run of one-and-done winners at the All England Club and assured the grass-court major of yet another first-time women's champion. 'Something I take a lot of pride in is being tough and fighting till the last point, no matter what the circumstances are. It's something I always try to do,' said Navarro, who was born in New York, grew up in South Carolina and won the 2021 NCAA championship for the University of Virginia. 'I could never live with myself if I ever gave up. It's just not in my nature. I don't think it's in any of my family members' nature to ever give up on anything. I guess we're a stubborn bunch.' Krejcikova faded in the third set, getting her blood pressure checked at the changeover after Navarro broke her to lead 3-2 at No. 1 Court. Krejcikova ate a banana and drank liquids during the medical timeout, while Navarro walked to her guest box and spoke to her coach during the break in action. When play resumed, Krejcikova showed clear signs of being in distress, often leaning over and placing her hands on her knees between points. 'I was actually feeling worse and worse,' said Krejcikova, who was seeded 17th but now will tumble out of the top 70 in the WTA rankings. 'It's very sad for me and very unfortunate.' This is hardly Navarro's first big win on a big stage. Last year, she eliminated Coco Gauff at Wimbledon to reach her first major quarterfinal. Then, in a rematch a couple of months later, Navarro won again at the U.S. Open — where Gauff was the 2023 champion — en route to her debut in a Slam semifinal. Whoever ends up winning the Wimbledon women's title on July 12 will be the ninth champion in the past nine editions of the grass-court Grand Slam tournament. Serena Williams was the last repeat champ in 2016. The trophy-takers since then have been Garbiñe Muguruza in 2017, Angelique Kerber in 2018, Simona Halep in 2019, Ash Barty in 2021 — all of whom are now retired — Elena Rybakina in 2022, Marketa Vondrousova in 2023 and then Krejcikova (the tournament was canceled in 2020 because of COVID-19). Rybakina lost Saturday; Vondrousova exited in the second round. Against Krejcikova, Navarro was down a set and a break at 2-1 in the second before turning things around. 'I kind of regrouped a little, tried to slow things down a bit from my side and make her look at some different shots,' said Navarro, 24, who will meet No. 7 Mirra Andreeva, an 18-year-old Russian, on Monday for a quarterfinal berth. 'Kind of just try to make her as uncomfortable as I could.' Most points were decided by what Krejcikova did. That's how she ended up with 34 winners — 21 more than Navarro — and 53 unforced errors. Remarkably, Navarro finished with just 11 unforced errors. Last year's triumph was the second at a major tournament for Krejcikova, who also won the 2021 French Open. It has been a fortnight filled with surprises, and Navarro is one of four top-10 seeds left in the women's bracket. The others are No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka, who won her third-round match Friday against Emma Raducanu, Andreeva and No. 8 Iga Swiatek, a 6-2, 6-3 winner against Danielle Collins on Saturday. 'My slice is coming along pretty nicely. I'm able to use that to my advantage,' Navarro said. 'Played scrappy at times. Played tough. Hit some good groundstrokes, as well. I feel pretty good about where I'm at.'
