Chris Manhertz Standing Out

Phil Mickelson Just A Guy At The Open Championship

Houston Texans rookie wide receiver Nico Collins -- a third-round selection in the 2021 NFL Draft -- could see some early snaps this season, says Aaron Reiss of The Athletic.

Baltimore Orioles starting pitcher Jorge Lopez was placed on the bereavement list on Wednesday, according to Jon Meoli of The Baltimore Sun.

Brendan Beck Could Be Close To Reaching The Majors

New York Yankees pitcher Brendan Beck could be close to reaching the majors, according to Bryan Hoch of MLB.com.

Christiaan Bezuidenhout Is A Lock For A Top-40 Finish

Ryan Palmer Is A Decent Option At A Cheap Price

While Ryan Palmer has largely struggled in Open Championships with six missed cuts and zero top-25 finishes in 10 appearances, his impressive performance last week at the Scottish Open is certainly worth mentioning.

Shane Lowry Sets Up For A Strong Title Defense

Shane Lowry memorably claimed victory at this tournament in 2019, and while retaining the Claret Jug feels like a big ask, there is no reason to believe that Lowry cannot compete this week.
