Gary Neville backs up Graeme Souness as FIFA slammed ‘senseless’ over Japan World Cup goal | Football | Sport

“I can’t believe FIFA aren’t showing us pictures that conclusively show the ball over the line. This is not subjective, this is a black and white situation. Show us the pictures. “We’re getting close to an hour since the incident. The longer they don’t come up with a picture, that last bit would show me that ball is out of play.

Column: A shot for Kamaiu Johnson, a boost for minority tour

The words on the back of his wedges remind Kamaiu Johnson that while nothing in golf has ever come easily, he is determined not to let that get in the way of his dreams. Johnson, a 27-year-old Black man with a most serendipitous entry into the white world of golf, had done well enough on the Advocates Pro Golf Association Tour that he was awarded a sponsor exemption into the Farmers Insurance Open at Torrey Pines, his first taste of the PGA Tour. “I was talking to him that Tuesday and he was barely coherent,” said Ken Bentley, the CEO ...
