Try to avoid Arsenal fan internet but I am very tested by these two ridiculous takes; 1) Arteta out I mean really 2) Odegaard out I mean reeeeally
Arteta lowest position since taking over Arsenal is 5th. In his first full season. Every other season he's lead Arsenal to runners up mainly against a team many say were the best prem team ever. But apparently he isn't good enough. Do me a favour!!
Fair to say Wadey wasn’t watching the golf last week. Great work from @ChrisHammer180.
"He doesn't have to get on an EasyJet. He doesn't have to get on a Happy Bus." This is what happens when you talk to James Wade about Scottie Scheffler and it doesn't go to plan 😂

You’re kidding aren’t you?
No kid remembers their best day in front of the TV.
🧵: A couple weeks ago, when some guys from some bro-centric podcast I'll never listen to made the claim that the worst thing that can happen on a golf course is getting paired up with a random, I had the same military-grade eyeroll reaction that most golfers had. And like many

Here's my preview of the 3M Open sportinglife.com/golf/news/ben-…
🏆🙇♂️ Our latest episode begins (after the preamble) with a tribute to Scottie Scheffler, as @BenColeyGolf and @sam_golf bow down to greatness Also covered... 💪 Bryson goes beast mode 👏 Contenders back from driving yips 🤔 What now for the Ryder Cup? linktr.ee/slicedgolfpodc…
Think that 40/1 dead-heat for 8th in the Rocket Classic headlined by I can’t even remember, followed by seeing him place at a shorter price for the actual Open, rather sums up 2025 for me, but also offers encouragement in some ways. 3M Open today, of course. 7 or 8pm, will see.
Matt Fitzpatrick's last five starts worldwide 📈
Too good. Witnessed greatness as a kid, now witnessing it as an adult. Not sure I'm able to sum it up now and feel certain I won't do him justice in 20 years, when someone else is on top. Scheffler, greatness, done. sportinglife.com/golf/news/ben-…
Scottie Scheffler and Haotong Li may be the friendship we didn't know we needed
