Jon Rahm accidentally hit a volunteer with a grass divot during an incident on the 7th hole at the PGA Championship when he angrily smashed his club into the ground

Jon Rahm has apologised to a volunteer after hitting them with a grass divot during an angry reaction to a poor shot at the PGA Championship. Rahm shot an opening round of 69 at Aronimink, with the lowest moment coming on the 7th hole.

The Spaniard played a poor shot out of the rough, sending his ball way over the back of the green on the par four hole. In frustration, he then swung his club once more, taking a big chunk of grass out.

Rahm didn’t immediately notice that the grass had been propelled straight into the face of a nearby volunteer. He then recognised what had happened and apologised to the elderly gentleman he had struck – and reiterated things after his round.

“Thanks for reminding of that,” Rahm told Today’s Golfer. “I got a flier on my second shot that went long . It’s not a good spot. Just out of frustration, I tried to make an air swing just over the grass, and I wasn’t looking, took a divot, and unfortunately I hit a volunteer.

“Unfortunately it hit him in the shoulder and then the face. I couldn’t feel any worse. That’s why I was there apologizing. I need to somehow track him down to give him a present because that’s inexcusable and for something that could be completely avoidable. Whether it was my intention or not, it was just not good.”

It remains to be seen whether Rahm will land himself in hot water with the PGA. But the PGA’s chief championships officer, Kerry Haigh, recently explained that there is a newly-introduced code of conduct that players are expected to abide by.

“The player code of conduct is something that has been a collaborative effort among all the majors and the major tours … We had a number of meetings to discuss the issue and how we could come up with a program that we feel is fair and effective,” Haigh said before the tournament.

“From our standpoint, which is all I can speak from the championship way, we have adopted the code of conduct … If a player does something sort of egregious, unfortunately, we would give a warning to that player, and if they were to do it again, there would be a two-shot penalty.

“And there’s a sort of number of sort of examples in the code that sort of gives us some guidance.”

The two-time Major winner could therefore find himself issued with a warning for his conduct, regardless of his apology and promise of a gift for the volunteer.

Rahm player alongside Rory McIlroy and Jordan Spieth and finished his round with back-to-back birdies to finish one under-par following a difficult rollercoaster round.

The results of the second semi-final of Eurovision 2026 are in the history, with the final line-up for the Grand Final confirmed just days before a new champion is crowned.

This year’s edition of the annual song competition is being held in the city of Vienna. Austria won the right to host the Eurovision for the third time after singer JJ won last year’s event in one of the tensest finals of recent memory.

Heading into the week, 35 counties turned up at the Wiener Stadthalle seeking to book their spot in the final. This year’s final is scheduled to take place on Saturday night (May 16).

Due to only 25 countries competing in the final, a number of iconic Eurovision nations have departed before one of the most watched TV events of the year.

On Tuesday night (May 12), viewers saw Belgium, Croatia, Finland, Greece, Israel, Lithuania, Moldova, Poland, Serbia, and Sweden book their spot in the final.

The second semi-final was held on Thursday night (May 14). On presenting duties once again was Austrian stars Victoria Swarovski and Michael Ostrowski, with the pair showcasing their banter.

What made the second semi-final interesting for UK viewers was that they got to vote for their favourite acts. On top of this, UK entrant Look Mum No Computer performed their song Eins, Zwei, Drei.

As is tradition, the UK got sent through to the final automatically due to being part of the ‘Big Four’ with Germany, France and Italy. Spain is normally part of this group, but chose not to compete in this year’s Eurovision in protest against Israel’s inclusion.

Full list of countries and songs in the second semi-final

• France: Monroe – “Regarde!” (Big Four)
• Austria: Cosmo- “Tanzschein” (Hosts)
• United Kingdom: Look Mum No Computer – “Eins, Zwei, Drei” (Big Four)

It means Azerbaijan, Luxembourg, Armenia, Switzerland, and Latvia did not qualify for the final.

A former imam pretended to be a ‘possessed’ Jinn spirit to sexually abuse girls as young as 12 for years.

Abdul Halim Khan, 54, told his victims that harm would come to them through so-called black magic if they reported him, leaving them feeling unable to come forward for years.

Khan was an imam at a mosque in east London and used his position as a trusted religious leader within the community to gain access to his victims and manipulate them.

He arranged meetings in isolated locations, and even their own homes, where he sexually abused victims under the false pretence of being possessed or disguised as a jinn (supernatural spirit).

Melissa Garner, Specialist Prosecutor at the Crown Prosecution Service, said: ‘Abdul Halim Khan abused his position as a trusted religious leader to prey on women and girls over many years, manipulating and controlling them for his own sexual gratification.

‘He used their deeply held beliefs to instil fear and silence them, making them believe their families would be at risk if they ever spoke out.

‘I hope this prosecution sends a clear message that the Crown Prosecution Service will work tirelessly to protect women and girls and bring anyone who commits these appalling crimes to justice.’

During the investigation, further victims were identified after the initial reports were made.

Prosecutors worked closely with the Metropolitan Police to build a case spanning more than a decade of offending.

To support the jury’s understanding of complex evidence involving spiritual beliefs – including references to jinn and black magic – the CPS instructed a cultural expert to provide essential context central to the case.

Khan was sentenced to life imprisonment and will serve a minimum term of 20 years at Snaresbrook Crown Court on Thursday 14 May.

He was convicted of 21 offences, including rape, sexual assault and child sexual offences, against seven women and girls between 2004 and 2015.

DCI Jennie Ronan, whose team led the investigation, said: ‘Abdul Khan presented himself as a respectable man who could be trusted. However, this was far from the truth, and he instead preyed upon and took advantage of others.

‘Today, I want to focus on the victim-survivors, who have shown remarkable bravery in reporting Khan and great strength throughout the trial.

‘We hope that today’s outcome provides as a measure of comfort as they continue to rebuild their lives and serves as a reminder to anyone who has experienced sexual violence that support is available.

‘We remain absolutely committed to tackling violence against women and girls, targeting dangerous offenders and removing them from London’s streets.’

The 25 countries that will compete in the Eurovision Song Contest 2026 have finally been officially confirmed ahead of this weekend’s grand final.

Mum Paris remarked: ‘That’s very gypsy-esque. That’s lovely’ as her daughter unwrapped her first wedding present.

Tyson and Paris Fury‘s 16-year-old daughter is getting ready to marry fiance Noah Price this weekend. With days to go Venezuela opened up one of her wedding gifts early, with Paris remarking: “That’s very gypsy-esque. That’s lovely.”

A TikTok video shared by the teenager on Thursday gave fans another glimpse into the wedding prep, showing Venezuela unwrapping a gift from the crew of the family’s Netflix show At Home With The Furys.

She said: “OK guys, open my Netflix wedding present with me,” before explaining how she was dressed, adding: “I’m freezing so I’m in a dressing gown in the middle of the day. Oh my god what is it?”

Pulling a crystal vase out of its box, she said: “Oh that’s lovely. Oh it’s beautiful, check me out,” before posing with it. The camera, operated by Paris, then swung round to show the Netflix crew in the family living room.

Speaking last month, Gypsy King star Fury, 37, said he has had “zero” involvement with his eldest daughter’s wedding planning because he’s been so focused on his latest boxing comeback.

However, Paris, 36, has been by her daughter’s side. Earlier this month, fans saw their visit to a bridal store, which showed Venezuela holding a huge bag with a smile on her face next to her mum, writing: “Said yes to the dress!!”

Venezuela has also threatened to wear Crocs on her big day, telling fans: “I’m having a bit of a struggle on what shoes to wear. Do I wear white New Balance trainers or white Crocs? I don’t know. Or, maybe I wear blue Crocs? I’m not sure.”

Despite Venezuela’s age, mum Paris, 35, and dad, Tyson, 37, are said to be unfazed by the prospect of their eldest daughter tying the knot. Paris herself was just 19 when she wed 21-year-old Tyson in 2008.

Tyson had been training for his fight with Arslanbek Makhmudov, which he won, in the run-up to the wedding. He praised his wife and daughter for their efforts in planning it, saying: “Fair play to Paris and Venezuela, they’ve actually done this wedding without my input at all.

“I’ve had zero to do with it. I’m away doing business. I’m not thinking about domestic stuff at home. I’m thinking about the fight and that’s it. I’m out of bounds. Don’t tell me about anything like that.”
