Jason Day asked by Augusta National to keep outfits more reserved


AUGUSTA, Ga. — Jason Day, who turned plenty of heads with his outfit choices at last year’s Masters, said he won’t be wearing such bold ensembles after Augusta National requested he sport a more reserved look this week.

The Australian former world No. 1, who left Nike in early 2024 to join Malbon Golf, had some interesting outfits ready for the year’s first major this week but has since had to make changes.

“We kind of did, but we kind of cut everything in half,” Day, 37, said Tuesday. “With what we’re supposed to wear, they said that’s a little bit much, but that’s OK.

“We had to send it in. I think I’m on the short list of guys that have to send their scripting in now. I get it. It was a little bit much on Thursday.”

At the 2024 Masters, Day wore baggy blue pants and a loud sweater vest that featured “No. 313. Malbon Golf Championship” in large block letters across the front when he showed up on the Friday to complete his first round alongside Tiger Woods.

But when he showed up for the second round later that day, the vest was gone. He later said tournament organizers had asked him to remove the garment.

Day, who finished runner-up in his Masters debut in 2011 and this week will make his 14th start at Augusta National, said he was fine altering his outfits and did not want to be a distraction.

“It’s good. I understand. We’re here for the tournament,” Day said. “This is why we come every April. We’re here to play the tournament and I understand. We’ll do what we can with what we have fashion-wise and enjoy playing the tournament.”

Drew Lock agrees to return to Seahawks


Drew Lock is headed back to the Pacific Northwest.

Per Tom Pelissero of NFL Media, Lock has agreed to terms on a contract with the Seahawks.

Lock, 28, previously spent two seasons with Seattle. He was a part of the Russell Wilson trade in 2022, heading to the Seahawks after playing his first three seasons with the Broncos.

While he did not play in a game in 2022, he made four appearances with two starts in 2023. He completed 63.2 percent of his throws that year for 543 yards with three touchdowns and three interceptions — highlighted by a 20-17 comeback victory over the Eagles on a Monday night in December.

Lock spent 2024 with the Giants, appearing in eight games with five starts. He finished the season having completed 59.1 percent of his passes for 1,071 yards with six touchdowns and five picks.

The Broncos selected Lock in the second round of the 2019 draft and he started 21 games for the club before being traded to Seattle.

Now back with the Seahawks, Lock is set to back up Sam Darnold in 2025.

‘Harry Potter’ Actor Nick Moran Has Emergency Surgery


British actor Nick Moran’s friend has asked fans to send prayers after the Harry Potter star was rushed to hospital for surgery with a condition described as “life-threatening.”

Moran was seen lying in a hospital bed in intensive care in a photo previously shared to social media (but later deleted) by his friend Terry Stone, who wrote:

“Nick was been rushed into hospital this week for a life saving operation which may mean he may never talk or walk again.”

Later Stone added:

“News update for you all on Nick Moran. He’s had major surgery and is recovering in the ICU he’s giving us the thumbs up but still needs your support, prayers & love. Let’s pray he fully recovers and is back to normal soon.”

Stone added: “We did a fantastic podcast together a few months back…. If there are any further updates on Nick I will let you all know in the live chat this coming Sunday.”

Stone shared with the Daily Mail newspaper that Moran had been persuaded to visit hospital by his girlfriend after he experienced a pain in his neck. Stone said: “Nick’s girlfriend was saying ‘You’ve got to get it checked out’ but as a bloke he said ’No I’ll put some deep heat on it’ then he went to the doctors and got sent to A&E and told, ‘We need to take you in for an emergency operation because this is life threatening.’”

Moran is now recovering at home from the surgery.

The actor is best known for his role of Scabior in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. He also appeared in Guy Ritchie’s gangland drama Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, as well as Another Life, The Musketeer, Nemesis, Boogie Man and New Blood.

The star grew up on east London and made his first hit film appearance in the 1990 film Buddy’s Song.

Jason Day will opt for ‘toned down’ Masters outfit as organizers check what he plans to wear at the tournament




CNN
 — 

Former world No. 1 Jason Day has said that Masters tournament organizers pre-empted any of his planned fashion statements to ensure there would be no repeat of last year’s infamous sweater vest.

In fact, Augusta National asked to see what outfits Day had planned before this year’s tournament, given the uproar around the bold lettering on the vest he wore last time out.

The Australian was requested to remove the sleeveless white, black and red top, which had the words “Malbon Golf Championship” on the front, after the first round in 2024.

“If they would have let us do what we first put the scripting through to them, it would have been a lot crazier than last year. But, you know, it will be a lot less. Toned down,” Day humorously revealed about this year’s outfits on a recent episode of the “Dan on Golf” Show.

“They’ve never asked to see scripting of mine because I’ve always been pretty, you know, neutral and down the middle. This year, they asked because (of) obviously what happened last year.”

The designer of last year’s sweater, Malbon Golf, made Day its first golf ambassador in January 2024. Since then, he and the lifestyle golf brand have worked together to show off his personality on the course.

Day said he simply chooses what he thinks looks good, and although he expected to get some attention, he never intended to disrespect the tournament or Augusta National.

“I think I had a sense that it was gonna go crazy just because it’s just a little bit different,” said Day. “It’s literally a knit vest, right? But it just said Malbon Golf Championship on it … It doesn’t take much to kind of stand out in golf because just everyone wears the same thing, essentially.

“The whole experience of Augusta is phenomenal,” he added. “I just want to make sure that I’m not trying to do anything that’s too crazy or outlandish to disrespect the tournament.”

The Masters isn’t the first professional sporting event to ask an athlete to change their look. In 2018, the French Open banned Serena Williams from wearing her catsuit at future tournaments.

Then in 2021, Norway’s beach handball team was fined for wearing shorts instead of bikini bottoms. Both of these decisions opened up wider conversations about gender and dress codes in sport.

And who could forget Magnus Carlsen’s jeans incident at the 2024 World Rapid Chess Championship? The five-time world champion walked away from the competition after refusing to change out of jeans, which the International Chess Federation (FIDE) said breached the tournament’s dress code. However, Carlsen later returned to play in the World Blitz Championship after “fruitful” conversations with FIDE.

As for Day, he said that he does not see himself as a fashion icon. Even so, fans will have to wait for another tournament to see what statement piece he’ll wear next.

Hideki Matsuyama Winds Up in Creek on the Unluckiest Shot of The Masters So Far


Hideki Matsuyama caught what is easily the worst break of the 2025 Masters so far.

On Thursday, during the opening round of the tournament, Matsuyama hit an incredible shot that, thanks to an unlucky bounce, wound up in the water.

The 2021 Masters champion hit his third shot on the par-5 13th hole right at the pin. In fact, it bounced, then hit the flag stick. Things went rapidly downhill from there.

The deflection sent it right off the green and the ball rolled directly into Rae’s Creek.

Video is below.

That is simply excruciating to watch. Instead of being inside 5 feet with a chance for an easy birdie, he got a penalty.

Matsuyama wound up taking a 7 on the hole, which took him from 1 under to 1 over on the day. That double bogey followed a bogey at the 12th hole and completely flipped his round on its head.

Analyst says pro’s slow play led to Rory McIlroy’s Masters collapse


By:

Kevin Cunningham




Rory McIlroy plummeted down the Masters leaderboard Thursday with two late double bogeys.

Darren Riehl/GOLF

The opening round of the 2025 Masters offered up another edition of Rory McIlroy’s losing battle with Augusta National. In the thick of contention, McIlroy collapsed late with a chip in the water and two double bogeys to plummet down the leaderboard. After the round, TV analyst Paul McGinley pinpointed another player’s slow play as the catalyst for Rory’s collapse.

McIlroy plummets down Masters leaderboard

If you’re a Rory McIlroy fan and you missed the moment yesterday, you might want to stop reading here.

After a great drive on the par-5 15th hole on Thursday, McIlroy sat at four under near the top of the leaderboard. There’s little doubt he envisioned making another red number to continue his ascent toward the lead.

But Rory’s second shot went over the green. Then, disaster struck. McIlroy’s next chip had too much juice, and it rolled all the way across the slick putting surface and into the water that guards the front of the green. Rory was then forced to head back to the other side of the hazard to hit his fifth shot. The end result? A devastating double-bogey 7.

Another double bogey followed shortly thereafter at the par-4 17th, and McIlroy eventually signed for an even-par 72.

However, the way McGinley sees it, there was an obvious culprit for McIlroy’s 15th hole collapse: a loss of concentration caused by slow play.

McGinley’s take on McIlroy’s blunder

A former European Ryder Cup captain and four-time European Tour winner, McGinley now plays the role of golf TV analyst for Sky Sports. And on Thursday evening, he focused his Masters segment on McIlroy’s mess.

In the video, McGinley argued that the seeds to Rory’s issues on Thursday were planted when playing partner Akshay Bhatia “took ages to play his shot” after hitting his own approach into the water on 15. He claimed that significant distraction caused McIlroy to lose focus.

“I think he got distracted. It took him a long time to play that pitch shot. His playing partner Akshay Bhatia put his second in the water. He took ages to play his shot – he took about 10 practice swings,” McGinley said on Sky Sports, as transcribed by golfwrx.com. “So A it took a long time. Then B his ball landed in Rory’s line so he had to wait for him to walk around the lake to mark his ball. Then he had to wait for the players to walk off the 16th tee. So he ended up waiting five minutes to play his shot.”

But McGinley was also quick to clarify that he did not think Bhatia or any other player was ultimately responsible for Rory’s double bogey.

“[McIlroy] is such a quick player – he wants to get on with it. He got distracted. I don’t blame Bhatia or the players walking off 16.” McGinley said.

Instead, McGinley put the blame squarely on McIlroy’s shoulders, arguing that “great champions” find a way to maintain concentration no matter what happens on the course.

“For a player who likes to play quickly, it was a drop in concentration. And that is what great champions don’t do. And I am sure that the 17th was a legacy of it.”

Following his disappointing 72 on Thursday, McIlroy will start Friday’s second round of the Masters seven shots behind leader Justin Rose.

The rest of Bhatia’s round went quite differently than Rory’s. Bhatia managed to save bogey on 15, then he reeled off three birdies in a row to close out an opening-round 70.
