Fans of Paris Saint-Germain football team celebrated late into the night on May 6 after their victory over Bayern Munich, which secured their place in the Champions League final on May 30.
Mumbai: May 7, 2026, marked exactly 35 years since one of the greatest Ranji Trophy finals ever played. On this day in the 1990-91 Ranji Trophy season, Haryana, led by India’s 1983 World Cup-winning captain Kapil Dev, stunned heavyweight Mumbai by just two runs at the Wankhede Stadium to lift their maiden Ranji Trophy title. For those raised on IPL thrillers, this was a domestic classic that went right down to the final ball on Day 5. The match, telecast live on Doordarshan Sports, is still remembered for its dramatic twists and high-quality cricket, though the broadcaster later deleted the footage. Played from May 3-7, 1991, the final saw Haryana post 507 in the first innings, powered by Deepak Sharma’s 199 and Chetan Sharma’s remarkable 98 from No. 9. Mumbai replied with 410, despite Sanjay Patil top-scoring with 85 and Lalchand Rajput making 74. Kapil Dev took three for 54, while Yogendra Bhandari claimed five wickets. Mumbai then bowled Haryana out for 242, leaving themselves 355 to win in 67 overs. However, they slipped to 35 for three at lunch on the final day, with Rajput, Shishir Hattangadi and Sanjay Manjrekar dismissed by the Kapil-Chetan combination. What followed remains one of the most memorable partnerships in Indian domestic cricket. Dilip Vengsarkar and a teenage Sachin Tendulkar added 134 runs for the fourth wicket to drag Mumbai back into the contest. Vengsarkar remained unbeaten on 139, while Tendulkar smashed a brilliant 96 off just 75 balls. “If we hadn’t grassed as many as seven catches, Haryana wouldn’t have scored 522 in the first innings. If Tendulkar had stayed for even five more overs, we would have been through. I don’t recall having seen a better knock from him in domestic cricket,” Vengsarkar told TOI on Thursday. Despite the heartbreak, Vengsarkar still considers it a landmark day in Indian domestic cricket. “It is the greatest day ever in India’s domestic cricket history. I don’t recall any instance of a packed crowd on the final day of a Ranji Trophy final ever at the Wankhede after that. In fact, nowadays you hardly see any crowds for the Ranji Trophy,” he said. At Vengsarkar’s stand-naming ceremony at the Wankhede in 2021, Tendulkar had emotionally recalled the impact the defeat had on him. “We lost the final by just two runs on the last day. Abey Kuruvilla got run out. Vengsarkar scored an unbeaten century [139]. I will never forget Vengsarkar’s reaction after the match while walking towards the dressing room. I saw tears in his eyes. In the dressing room, he sat and covered his head with a towel for some time. I realised then what commitment and passion, what the khadoosness of Mumbai cricket, meant. He had already played more than 100 Tests, he was such a big cricketer, still he was playing for Mumbai and had tears in his eyes after Mumbai’s loss. I just felt that the stand [Dilip Vengsarkar Stand] which we are seeing now named after him, is a tribute to those tears,” Tendulkar remarked. Kapil Dev later described it as “the greatest match of my life.” Former Mumbai all-rounder Sanjay Patil, now Mumbai’s senior team chief selector, also recalled the extraordinary commitment shown by players in that era while speaking to TOI. “It feels great that it’s been exactly 35 years since the greatest match of my life. I was on the field for all five days. I shouldn’t have been playing that game in the first place, as I had fractured a finger in my left (bowling) hand in the quarterfinal against Delhi after being struck by a Manoj Prabhakar beamer, and was told by our MCA doctor Arun Samshir to take a seven-week rest from the game. However, my captain Sanjay Manjrekar asked me to play in the semifinal against Hyderabad, so I forgot about my injury.” “A couple of days after the semis was the final. Forgetting that my finger was fractured, I bowled 50.3 overs in the first innings. Then, at 4.15 pm, Hattangadi was out, and suddenly, just as I was looking to take some rest, I was asked to go in as the nightwatchman. Somehow, I got ready, with our 12th man Sameer Dighe helping me put on my pads. In the hurry, I even forgot to wear my guard and was to face Kapil! However, I’m proud to say that even as a No. 10 batsman, in a star-studded batting line-up which had Tendulkar at No. 5 and Vinod Kambli at No. 6, I ended up top-scoring with 85! In the second innings, I bowled 34 overs, taking three for 65.” It should have been Vengsarkar’s final season for Mumbai. The former India captain revealed that he had initially planned to retire after the 1991-92 Australia tour, but was persuaded by former India opener Sudhir Naik to continue playing in the Ranji Trophy knockouts for Mumbai. Vengsarkar responded with a memorable 284 in the quarterfinal against Madhya Pradesh at the Wankhede Stadium before eventually playing his final match for Mumbai in the semifinal defeat to Delhi — another example of the commitment and loyalty shown towards Mumbai cricket by players of that era.
We’ve heard a lot from Bryson DeChambeau at this week’s LIV Golf event at Trump National Golf Club in Virginia. It’s the first LIV tournament since the league confirmed reports that the Saudi Arabian PIF would pull funding after this season.
As a result, reporters and fans alike were eager to hear what DeChambeau, LIV’s biggest star, thought of the monumental news. He told GOLF’s Alan Bastable that he was caught off guard when the PIF funding news first broke.
“There’s no way. That’s frickin’ impossible, considering what I’d heard a couple months earlier. I thought there was a plan through 2032. It was a flip of the switch,” DeChambeau said on Tuesday in Virginia.
On Wednesday, DeChambeau revealed his current thinking about a potential PGA Tour comeback. In an interview with Skratch Golf, he laid out two specific requirements he would need met to make a PGA Tour return a reality.
Bryson DeChambeau on PGA Tour comeback: ‘It’s really about if the membership wants me back’
In his latest interview with Garrett Johnston of Skratch, DeChambeau detailed two specific hurdles preventing him from rejoining the PGA Tour.

The first obstacle he identified was the current PGA Tour players. DeChambeau declared that ultimately they would need to “want him back” before he’d consider a return.
“I think there’s a way to solve any problem. It’s really about if the membership wants me back and if they just want me back. That’s what it’s about,” DeChambeau admitted. “I don’t even think it’s Brian Rolapp or anybody like one of the top executives, it’s really if the players want me back and if not, then I understand that.”
Bryson’s comments speak to how acrimonious the PGA Tour-LIV Golf rift has been over the past five years. The rise of LIV divided the top players, and relationships have been strained. That’s especially true when it comes to vocal star players like DeChambeau, who is divisive among golf fans in the best of times.
DeChambeau’s other issue has to do with his YouTube account and other social media platforms. Bryson has repeatedly said those pursuits will be a big part of his future. He told Skratch that the PGA Tour policy governing players’ creation of social media content at tournaments was one of the biggest pain points preventing his Tour comeback.
DeChambeau argued, “If you look at it, it’s affiliate marketing, so me being able to create content on that golf course that week at that event should only bring value to the tournament, and that’s what I care about most, entertaining like I’ve always said from day one.”
But he also incorrectly claimed that the PGA Tour restricts players from creating content at tournaments during practice rounds and pro-ams.
“So if I was to film a video during the week of one of their events with a content creator or a celebrity, that would be in violation to my knowledge. It’s their policy, they didn’t let me do it when I was on there. I asked various times,” DeChambeau claimed.

The PGA Tour clarified to Skratch that under current PGA Tour Social Media Policy Tour pros are allowed to create content at events prior to the tournament rounds.
There is one reality that makes a PGA Tour return more feasible for DeChambeau than some of his LIV compatriots.
DeChambeau’s current LIV deal expires at the end of the season. Therefore, he’s not required to play LIV events beyond 2026. Furthermore, the massive new contract he was originally seeking is likely off the table with LIV’s funding issues.
That stands in stark contrast to Jon Rahm, for example. Rahm is under contract with LIV for years to come, giving him less flexibility than DeChambeau moving forward.
NEW DELHI: The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) explained on Thursday why Bengaluru was not chosen to host the IPL 2026 final, with board secretary Devajit Saikia saying the Karnataka State Cricket Association (KSCA) had sought a large number of complimentary tickets beyond the allowed quota.While Dharamshala and New Chandigarh will host the other playoff matches, the final will be played at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad.

Speaking to news agency ANI, Saikia said IPL rules allow only 15 per cent of the total stadium capacity as complimentary tickets for the host association.“As per IPL protocol, we are required to provide only 15 per cent of the total seating capacity as complimentary tickets to the host association. This constitutes the standard protocol; all host state associations receive a 15 per cent allocation of their total capacity in the form of complimentary tickets,” Saikia said.He added that the BCCI received reports that KSCA had been asking for far more tickets during IPL league matches.“However, we received information from various sources indicating that during the hosting of IPL league matches, the Karnataka State Association was claiming a significantly higher number of complimentary tickets far exceeding the stipulated 15 per cent,” Saikia said.According to Saikia, the BCCI then wrote to KSCA seeking details. He said the board was surprised by the reply received on May 2.“Consequently, we sent them an email requesting precise details regarding this matter. We were shocked when we received a response via email from the Karnataka State Cricket Association on May 2nd; in that email, they stated that, over and above the 15 per cent complimentary ticket quota, they would require an additional, substantial allocation of tickets for their members, affiliated clubs, and various others,” Saikia said.“Most surprisingly, they also requested tickets for their local Members of the Legislative Assembly (MLAs) and Members of the Legislative Council. And also to the government of Karnataka, 700 complimentary tickets. Thus, over and above the 15 per cent allocation, they were demanding approximately 10,000 additional tickets,” he added.In March, Karnataka deputy chief minister D K Shivakumar had announced that each MLA would get three free tickets for IPL matches, while two complimentary tickets would be given for international matches, with an option to buy two more. The announcement came after discussions with KSCA representatives.The issue had also been raised by legislators in the Karnataka Assembly, who complained about ticket and seating arrangements at the Chinnaswamy Stadium. Following that, Assembly speaker U T Khader had asked the government to ensure that every MLA receives four VIP tickets during matches at the venue.
Mikel Arteta’s side are looking to complete a famous double, with the title race against Manchester City heading towards the final day, too.
Uefa has switched the kick-off time for this year’s final, however, with the game kicking off at 5pm BST on 30 May.

That is three hours earlier than previous years, when the match kicked off at 8pm BST, with Uefa detailing their reasons for the move.
“The decision is designed to enhance the overall matchday experience for fans, teams and host cities by optimising matchday logistics and operations, while delivering several tangible benefits,” read a Uefa statement. “Our goal is to make match day a truly enjoyable experience for everyone who wants to be part of the excitement, while creating a welcoming atmosphere that makes it easy for families and children to attend the biggest and most important club football match of the season.

“For travelling supporters, it will mean improved access to public transport – especially after the match – and a safer, more convenient journey back from the stadium. For the host cities, it will boost the positive economic impact of the event by giving fans the possibility to continue their celebrations.
“The new kick-off time also aligns with a more accessible broadcasting window, helping the final reach an even broader television and digital audience worldwide, with a particular focus on engaging younger viewers.”
While Uefa President Aleksander Ceferin added that the change would allow fans to enjoy the rest of their evening and debrief on the match and season overall for their teams.

He added: “With this change, we are placing the fans’ experience at the heart of our planning. The UEFA Champions League final is the highlight of the football season, and the new kick-off time will make it even more accessible, inclusive, and impactful for everyone involved.

“While a 21:00 CET kick-off is well suited for midweek matches, an earlier kick-off on a Saturday for the final means an earlier finish – regardless of extra time or penalties – and offers fans the opportunity to enjoy the rest of the evening with friends and family, reflecting on the game of the season.”
How can I watch?
Viewers in the United Kingdom can watch the match live on TNT Sports 1, with coverage on the channel from 7pm BST. A live stream will also be available via HBO Max and the HBO app.
In the United States, the match will be broadcast in English on CBS and streamed live on Paramount+. Spanish-language coverage is available on Univision and TUDN, which can also be streamed via Fubo.

The school hired Matt Campbell as its new head coach after he spent 10 years with the Iowa State Cyclones, turning them from a 3-9 team to a school that made seven bowl appearances after going four years without making one.

Penn State quarterback Rocco Becht, who transferred to Penn State from Iowa State, talked Wednesday about how Campbell will be able to change the culture within the program.
“He wants to build a player-led program,” he told ESPN. “When you’re not all aligned with the same goals and expectations, you’re not going to win those big games. … Last year, it wasn’t really player-led and the culture just wasn’t always there.

Campbell is taking over for James Franklin, who was with Penn State for 12 years before he was fired in the middle of the 2025 season as the team lost three games in a row, including an upset loss to unranked UCLA when the team was ranked seventh in the nation.
Terry Smith took over for Franklin and helped salvage the season with a Pinstripe Bowl win over Clemson.
Now, with a new head coach, new quarterback and a 12-team College Football Playoff, the excuses for the Nittany Lions to not make it to the postseason are running out.
Penn State made the College Football Playoff in 2024, but lost to Notre Dame in the semifinals. It was the team’s only CFP appearance.

TKO’s Mark Shapiro provided certain details about WWE during the first-quarter 2026 earnings call.
Some of the topics Shapiro focused on were WWE’s rising ticket prices, creative criticism by the fans, and the fate of events planned for Saudi Arabia, among others.
Thanks for the submission!

He spoke about premium live events and those being the revenue-driving factor for the quarter. Mark Shapiro revealed that WWE Elimination Chamber’s had a “meaningful” YOY increase after it’s debut on ESPN. The premium live event has emerged as the second-highest arena gate in the company’s history.

Apart from Elimination Chamber, Shapiro revealed that Royal Rumble 2026 was the event that kick-started the increase in YOY for live events and hospitality.
Mark Shapiro revealed where the company stands with fan criticism about prices and creative decisions
WWE has been criticized by fans for the way storylines are unfolding and the rate at which ticket prices are increasing. TKO’s focus on revenue over affordability has caused several fans to opt out of purchasing tickets to premium live events.
Shapiro has claimed that the company makes it its top priority to listen to criticism and act as much as possible to improve the situation. However, he also revealed that what WWE is hearing as creative criticism isn’t new, and dissatisfaction will always persist within the WWE Universe.
Coming to commercial elements and ticket prices, TKO’s COO revealed that while the company has heard the criticism with utmost priority and is working around it, when it comes to commercial elements, there is no magic formula to make things work. Trial-and-error is the way to figure out how to make the change work for both fans and the company.

Apart from that, Mark Shapiro clarified that the planned events for Saudi Arabia are not cancelled and will move ahead as previously stated.
Lately, news has surfaced that TKO was directly behind the recent wave of superstar releases and how the situation was handled. Even Kevin Nash pointed out the irony in offering lower wages to superstars while the top executives bagged in billions.

“On behalf of the NBA, I send my deepest condolences to Ted’s family and friends,” Silver said.
Turner was one of the most influential figures in sports media and played a major role in expanding the NBA’s audience through television broadcasting.
Bayern Munich board member for sport Max Eberl has signaled that he is open to extending his contract beyond the summer of 2027.
“Right now, I think we’ve set a lot of very, very good things in motion. I feel very, very comfortable here,” Eberl, who took over the role in 2024, said in an interview with DAZN.

“People should judge my work. And if they think I’m doing a good job, then I’m also willing to stay at Bayern longer,” he added.

The former Borussia Mönchengladbach and RB Leipzig executive also admitted that his beginning at the Bavarian club were not always straightforward.
“I think everything I’ve invested here – the passion, the work I’ve done together with the people here – wasn’t entirely easy at first, because naturally a few strong personalities came together,” he explained.
“But I think that’s also what helps a big club like Bayern Munich – that people challenge each other and have discussions together.”

Meanwhile, FC Bayern supervisory board member and honorary president Uli Hoeneß recently stressed that formal talks over Eberl’s future can’t begin just yet – even if the club wanted them to.
“First of all, you need to know that board contracts cannot be extended more than one year before they expire,” Hoeneß told DAZN, while confirming that Eberl’s future has already been discussed internally.
“We spoke about a possible contract extension for the board member for sport for the first time at the last board meeting almost two weeks ago,” the honorary president revealed, but declined to go into further detail.
“I don’t want to preempt the discussions that can begin in July,” he stressed.
