Weekend winners
› Aldrich Potgieter is all of 20 years old and hits bombs off the tee. His average drive is a full six yards longer than the next on the PGA list in driving distances. He prevailed in a five-hole playoff for his first PGA win this weekend. He pocketed a cool $1.728 million.
› Tarik Skubal, and all of us who are riding this ATM in betting circles when he pitches. Skubal went seven innings with 13 Ks, one hit and one walk in a prime time 3-0 win for the Tigers.
› Matt Freese. The goalkeeper for the USMNT delivered in the toughest pressure cooker in soccer — finding a way to grab saves in a shootout. Man, a pre-Gold Cup filled with drama has been redirected — like the shots Freese turned away — in this tournament. Winning does cure all ills, right?
