Are you required to declare a provisional shot before you hit it?
The Rules of Golf are tricky! Thankfully, we’ve got the guru. Our Rules Guy knows the book front to back. Got a question? He’s got all the answers.
On a par 3, my playing partner, “Steve,” flew the green into the hedges beyond. He re-teed and without declaring a provisional hit it to 4 feet. Upon reaching the green, the group on the next tee — located on the far side of the hedges — said the ball was next to that tee, in-bounds but with no real shot. Steve was adamant that his second ball was in play, as he hadn’t said, “Provisional.” I argued that you can’t declare your own ball lost. Who was right? – Joe Lauder, Warrington, Cheshire, England
“Steve” was adamant, and he was also correct.
Sorry, Joe, but you always have the option to play under penalty of stroke and distance, and the Rules do not require you to play a ball provisionally. When “Steve” did not announce his provisional before making the stroke, that ball became his ball in play under penalty of stroke and distance. He laid 3 with a 4-foot putt for his bogey 4. And you are now better versed in Rule 18.3.
For more provisional-ball guidance from our guru, read on …
My friend drives wide right. Presuming it is lost, he hits a provisional, which also goes far right. We eventually found both balls in-bounds. Problem: the balls were identical, and neither was marked, so we couldn’t determine which was the original and which was the provisional. He was advised to play the one further from the hole as his first ball, then take a two-stroke penalty at the end of the hole. Was that correct? – Bart Calvanese, Denver, Colo.
Oh, what a tangled web we weave when we neglect to mark our golf balls differently.
Bart, when a player can’t distinguish between original and provisional, and both balls are found on the course, the player must choose one — either one — and treat it as the provisional, under Rule 18.3c(2).
Thus, your friend would have been taking his fourth stroke with the ball of his choosing. To anticipate the follow-up question, were one ball in bounds and the other OB, you’d play the in-bounds ball as the provisional.

Wolves vs Liverpool live: Latest team news and updates from Premier League clash
Where has this Wolves resurgence come from?
Wolves are doomed for relegation, sitting 14 points adrift from safety with 10 games to go. But if we’re being honest, they haven’t looked like a team destined for the drop as of late.
Molineux has witnessed two of the biggest upsets of the season over the past two weeks, with Rob Edwards’ men first holding leaders Arsenal to a 2-2 draw before stunning high-flying Aston Villa with a comfortable 2-0 win!
Both results could well prove pivotal to both sides in achieving their respective ambitions – whether that be title or Champions League-based – and with Liverpool also in the hunt for top five, can Wolves hurt another of the division’s top teams?

James Milner: Jurgen Klopp told me to have a break when I retire – but then I’m running marathons
Here’s our interview with legendary former Liverpool midfielder James Milner, who broke the record for most Premier League appearances last weekend…
Walking into Brighton’s Elite Football Performance Centre, I was swiftly approached by a member of the club’s communications team. “Have you got the frames?” he asked this bemused writer, who only had his phone, laptop and notepad with him. It turns out he was after a different Will; not from The Independent, but from Guinness World Records. We were both here for James Milner.
For Milner, his record-breaking 654th Premier League appearance was just another game. “Massive victory on the road, delighted for the boys and travelling fans, thanks for the support,” read his very ordinary Instagram post, with the comments limited, after Brighton’s hard-fought win at Brentford. No self-congratulations, no fuss. It was very run-of-the-Milner.
The 40-year-old had his priorities straight. “I’ve always just tried to get on with my job and keep my head down really,” Milner said, ironically surrounded by journalists – and the aforementioned GWR dignitary, adorned in the trademark blue blazer and tie – who had all congregated on the south coast to discuss his remarkable milestone. “I know obviously there’s been a lot of talk around this sort of thing, but for me, I just want to do my job and [was] especially pleased to get the win, that was so important for us at the weekend. So to contribute to that, that’s always number one.”

Arne Slot admits he gets no ‘joy’ from Premier League set-piece dominance
Liverpool head coach Arne Slot has expressed a distinct lack of enjoyment for the current style of football prevalent in the Premier League, though he concedes it represents “the new reality” of the game.
“First of all you have to accept it. I think it is mainly here in the Premier League; if I watch other leagues I don’t think there is so much emphasis on set-pieces,” he stated, drawing a stark contrast with the Eredivisie, where he observes goals disallowed and fouls on goalkeepers called more frequently.
“Here you can almost hit a goalkeeper in his face the referee will say just go on. Do I like it? My football heart doesn’t like it. Now most of the games I see in the Premier League are not, for me, a joy to watch.
“But it is always interesting because it is so competitive and that’s what makes this league great because there is so much competitiveness – everyone can win against everyone.”

Wolves vs Liverpool live
Despite being 14 points off safety, Wolves have not looked like a side doomed for relegation of late, with Rob Edwards’ side boasting results against teams in the top four in their last two home outings. They notched a late draw against leaders Arsenal two weeks ago before dispatching high-flying Aston Villa in a Midlands derby on Friday night.
Liverpool will be seeing a lot of Wolverhampton this week, with tonight’s clash coming just three days before they return to the Black Country to face this opposition in the FA Cup fifth round.

Terence Crawford’s trainer knows the next man to beat Canelo: “We got the blueprint”
Terence Crawford retired off the back of a victory over Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez. Coach Brian McIntyre was instrumental in the gameplan to make that happen.
‘Bud’ Crawford moved up two divisions from his previous outing to challenge for Canelo’s undisputed super-middleweight world title, fighting his way to a unanimous decision victory to become champion in a fifth weight class.
The 38-year-old from Omaha, Nebraska announced his retirement not long after, calling time on an undefeated campaign that was helmed by trainer ‘BoMac’ from start to finish after they had worked together in the amateur ranks.
With Canelo set to return in September in pursuit of more world titles, BoMac believes he has the man to stop that happening: Lester Martinez.
Speaking to Pro Box TV, the acclaimed trainer talked up his charge’s chances, and said Crawford had to raise his game when sparring Martinez prior to the Alvarez fight.
“People are starting to talk about Lester Martinez. It’s great, man. He fits right in there. I personally feel he could beat Canelo. You know we got the blueprint, right?
“He damn sure [helped Crawford]. It was great work. That is where you saw Bud’s greatness come in, by switching up his styles, what he to do to get the work in with Lester. Lester, one of his weaknesses [could] sometimes play against him, but [he] got past that and to push Terence to a level where he needed to go and to get out there and do what he wanted to do in the [Canelo] fight. It was phenomenal.”
Martinez fought Christian Mbilli for the WBC interim title on the undercard of Canelo–Crawford, with the bout ending in a split draw. Mbilli, after retaining the interim belt, has now been upgraded to full champion in the wake of Crawford’s retirement.
A rematch was ordered in the wake of the fight and may still take place, with Mbilli currently weighing up his options for his first defence, another of which being Canelo himself.
Guatemala’s Martinez has time on his side at 30 years old and just 20 fights into his campaign, and many feel a world title is within his reach, particularly with the brain of BoMac in the corner. Should the opportunity to face the Mexican icon present itself, the coach believes he can solve that puzzle once more. First up is Immanuwel Aleem on March 21, again for the interim WBC strap.

Galatasaray Deny Owing Osimhen Amid Salary Rumours
Galatasaray have dismissed reports claiming that Victor Osimhen and some of his teammates are owed unpaid salaries.
In recent days, several Turkish media outlets reported that the Nigeria striker had not been paid for two or three months. The rumours gained more attention after Osimhen did not celebrate some of his recent goals.
One moment that raised questions was his calm reaction after scoring against Juventus in the UEFA Champions League knockout stage. Some fans suggested his muted celebration was linked to the alleged salary issues.
Osimhen later explained that he chose not to celebrate out of respect for Juventus manager Luciano Spalletti, his former coach at Napoli. However, the speculation continued despite his clarification.
Galatasaray president Dursun Özbek has now responded firmly to the claims. The 76-year-old businessman insisted that the club has paid all players in full and on time.
He said reports of unpaid wages were false and disrespectful to the professionalism of the players. According to him, Galatasaray have not defaulted on any salary payments and do not owe any player outstanding wages. He added that bonuses and incentives are also paid as agreed.
While the debate continues off the pitch, Galatasaray are enjoying an impressive season.
Under coach Okan Buruk, they currently lead the Turkish Süper Lig by four points ahead of rivals Fenerbahçe. In Europe, they have reached the Round of 16 of the UEFA Champions League for the first time in 12 years, where they will face Liverpool.
Domestically, they are also preparing for a Turkish Cup fixture against Alanyaspor.
Osimhen has played a major role in the club’s success this season. The Super Eagles forward has scored seven goals in the Champions League and 10 in the league.
However, he is expected to miss the cup game against Alanyaspor as the club manages his fitness ahead of the important league derby against Beşiktaş this weekend.

EFL clubs to vote on Championship play-offs expansion this week
English Football League clubs are set to cast a crucial vote on Thursday concerning a significant expansion of the Championship play-offs for the upcoming season.
The proposal aims to increase the number of participating teams from four to six, mirroring the National League’s model.
Should the motion pass, the top two teams in England’s second tier would still secure automatic promotion, but the play-off spots would extend to those finishing between third and eighth.
This would be a departure from the current system, which involves only teams placed third to sixth.
The vote, scheduled for late Thursday morning, requires a majority from all EFL clubs, alongside a separate majority among Championship clubs, to be carried.
Thursday’s decision, it is understood, will focus solely on the principle of expanding the play-offs, with the precise format to be determined at a later stage, potentially during the league’s annual general meeting this summer.
The National League’s six-team format sees clubs finishing fourth and seventh, and fifth and sixth, face off in single-leg eliminators.
The winners then progress to join the second and third-placed teams in the semi-finals.
Last season, Oldham Athletic notably triumphed in the National League play-offs despite finishing 23 points adrift of second-placed York, a result that intensified discussions around the limited two promotion spots from the fifth tier to League Two.
While a debate concerning a potential increase of National League promotions to three teams is anticipated, no vote on this matter will take place this week.
Such a decision would necessitate the prior distribution of full briefing papers and voting slips.
The two-day all-club meeting, which commenced on Wednesday, also includes addresses from David Kogan and Richard Monks, the chair and chief executive of the Independent Football Regulator.
Kogan recently called for a new financial settlement to be agreed between the Premier League and EFL amid fears that relegation is a “near death sentence” for some clubs.

Bracketology: Iowa State falls to No. 4 seed, Texas Tech rises in NCAA Tournament projection
Iowa State dropped to a No. 4 seed in CBS Sports Bracketology following its 73-57 loss at No. 2 Arizona on Monday night. It marked the Cyclones’ third loss in their last four games and underscored just how tightly packed teams in the Nos. 2-4 seed range are with less than two weeks until Selection Sunday.
Less than two weeks ago, Iowa State landed as the fourth No. 1 seed in the March Madness bracket preview. But with little separating teams 6-14 in the overall seeding hierarchy, recent struggles have come with a cost for the Cyclones, who are still a solid 14-6 across Quad 1 and Quad 2 games.
Texas Tech rose from a No. 4 seed to a No. 3 seed to replace Iowa State as it continues thriving without star forward JT Toppin. The Red Raiders have won three straight since losing their leading scorer and leading rebounder for the season due to a knee injury. In that time, they have hit 45.1% of their 3-pointers. Among their victories is a Saturday road win over Iowa State that could be especially impactful if the selection committee compares the teams side-by-side.
Here is a glimpse at how the CBS Sports Bracketology model sees the top of the bracket entering a busy Tuesday of action.
Bracketology top seeds
Check out the full field of 68 at the CBS Sports Bracketology hub.
Movement since the preview
Another faller since the Feb. 21 bracket preview is Purdue. The Boilermakers landed on the No. 2 line when the selection committee offered its annual glimpse at the top 16 overall seeds. Now the Boilermakers are a No. 3 seed following consecutive losses to Michigan State and Ohio State.
Among those on the rise since the bracket preview is Michigan State. The Spartans are on a four-game winning streak and now reside on the No. 2 seed line in CBS Sports Bracketology after landing as a No. 4 seed in the committee’s preview. Florida and UConn have also risen in our model. The Huskies landed as the top No. 2 seed in the bracket preview but are the fourth No. 1 seed in CBS Sports Bracketology following recent losses from former No. 1 seed contenders like Iowa State, Houston and Purdue.
After landing as a No. 3 seed in the bracket preview, Florida is now nipping at UConn’s heels for the final No. 1 seed. The Gators can wrap up an outright SEC title with a win over Mississippi State on Tuesday. Alabama has also quietly risen from a No. 5 seed in CBS Sports Bracketology to a No. 3 seed while piecing together an eight-game winning streak highlighted by this past Saturday’s road win over Tennessee.
Rematch rules
Amid conference consolidation and the proliferation of nonconference matchups between high-major schools, the NCAA Tournament Selection Committee faces challenges in attempting to avoid regular-season rematches. The 2025 NCAA Tournament bracket featured three potential second-round games between conference teams, although none came to fruition.
The committee will still seek to minimize conference meetings and nonconference rematches, and our model is coded to do the same. However, NCAA bracketing principles permit games between conference teams in the second round, so long as the teams played each other just once before the NCAA Tournament. For conference teams that met twice prior to the NCAA Tournament, principles state they should not meet prior to the Sweet 16. If the teams played three times, NCAA bracketing principles state they should not play before the Elite Eight.
Concerning rematches of nonconference games, NCAA bracketing principles state that they should be avoided “in the First Four and first round.” The committee will also “attempt to avoid” nonconference rematches in the second round. But the committee has historically prioritized keeping teams on their natural seed line over changing their seed line for the sake of avoiding a rematch.

Report: Braves’ Profar facing 162-game suspension for second PED violation
The Atlanta Braves‘ designated hitter is reportedly facing a 162-game suspension after testing positive for a performance-enhancing drug for the second time in the last year, per ESPN’s Jeff Passan on Tuesday.
Profar, 33, would be the sixth player to receive a 162-game ban for PED use since Major League Baseball increased the penalty to a full season in 2014 for two-time offenders.
The one-time all-star was previously suspended for 80 games last season after testing positive for human chorionic gonadotropin, a hormone that can encourage testosterone production.

Maple Leafs trade deadline preview: No choice but to sell
TORONTO — This was not the plan, but it is imperative that this becomes the plan.
Hang around the cellars and you have no choice but to become a seller.
In the case of the Toronto Maple Leafs, a team coming to bitter grips with demise of the NHL’s longest active playoff streak, they will be posting a FOR SALE sign at the trade deadline for the first time in the Auston Matthews–William Nylander era.
That means a handful of skaters on expiring contracts should be up for rent to the highest bidder, of course. But it should also mean that Toronto’s veterans with term and reasonable cap hits are in play.
Even still, all signs point to a modest reset and reload as the club tries to regain its relevance in 2026-27.
The knife might not cut as deep this week as fans wish.
What management cannot afford, though, is to whiff on easy sells. The cupboards are too barren. Use cap space to retain salary and sweeten the returns.
It’s asset-recouping time in Toronto.
Projected deadline day cap space: $5.03 million
Our understanding of the Leafs’ scrambling plan is that they are treating 2025-26 as an off year, a bum-luck blip. They are the 2024-25 Bruins or the 2021-22 Golden Knights or 2016-17 Lightning — all of whom missed the post-season before returning to relevance.
We’re not convinced that’s true. But if this roster is to successfully reset, it needs youth and speed and a more mobile defence corps.
Because the trade deadline is mostly a rental market, GM Brad Treliving will have difficulty adding young players with term — but that shouldn’t prevent him from trying to swing a hockey deal that injects energetic legs and offensive upside into his blue line or two-way skill into his forward group.

Sportsnet and bet365
At bet365, you can watch thousands of live games, build your own bet, and can even make a bet while the game’s still being played. 19+. Play responsibly. Ontario only.
The easier and more realistic path is to add to a draft pick and prospect pool that has been stripped bare after years of going for it.
Whether newly accrued picks and prospects are kept for a rebuild or flipped for NHL-ready talent in 2026-27 is a decision for another day. Either way, Toronto — without a first-rounder or second-rounder in 2026 or a first-rounder in 2027 — is desperate for those assets.
But if McMann, a pending UFA, wants anything near $5 million per season, it’s time to move on. Twenty-goal scorers are too hard to come by on the rental market, and the Leafs need to recoup a nice return here. A first? Fantastic. Two seconds? Let’s go.
Scott Laughton: Like McMann, Laughton has expressed his desire to remain a Leaf. And like McMann, Laughton can’t block a trade and should fetch great interest from contenders. The centre-slash-winger can win a faceoff, kill a penalty and inject leadership. Every room or bench improves with Laughton on it. (Murmurs are also kicking up about third-line centre Nicolas Roy, who has an extra year of term on his contract. The Oilers are one team said to be interested.)
Troy Stecher: A wonderful waiver find, the competitive Stecher has done yeoman’s work in Toronto, logging more than 20 minutes a night and filling in the role of right-shot minutes muncher admirably. But he’s on an expiring deal. If Stecher doesn’t wish to re-sign for a reasonable rate and short term, it’s time to ship him off for a pick.
Oliver Ekman-Larsson: OK, now we’re into the deeper cuts. Ekman-Larsson has term, carries a friendly cap hit ($3.5 million), and is amid one of his best showings yet — at age 34, no less. His trade value will never be higher. Yes, the Oilers may have found their guy in Connor Murphy, but that shouldn’t deter Treliving from exploring other landing spots.
Brandon Carlo: Unfairly to the player — a meat-and-potatoes shot blocker and cycle stuffer — the right-shot Carlo carries the ill feelings around Treliving’s worst move, last year’s shedding of Fraser Minten, a 2026 first-round pick (top-five protected) and a fourth-rounder to rival Boston. But that doesn’t mean Carlo wouldn’t be a boost to playoff-bound blue line. And in a market thin on defence rentals, Treliving stress the value of Carlo’s term and low cap hit.
Picks and prospects: Let’s not get picky here. High time to stock the cupboards, and it falls on management to secure the highest draft picks and most talented young players available this week. Sell high.
Robert Thomas: Aging pivots like Nazem Kadri and Ryan O’Reilly are non-starters. But if the available Thomas, 26, can be nabbed from St. Louis, we’re here for the retool-on-the-fly conversation. Unfortunately, with Treliving’s minimal asset pool, securing for a high-end target like Thomas will be a reach. A significant asset (Matthew Knies? Easton Cowan?) would have to go.
Braden Schneider: The Rangers are open for business, and this six-foot-four, 24-year-old, right-shot defenceman is fast approaching restricted free agency. If the Leafs are to come back younger, they must hit on some new acquisitions who won’t be overpriced. Schneider’s best hockey should still lie ahead.

Ahead of the main ceremony, which is expected to be held on March 5, the first visuals of the couple’s Mehendi ceremony went viral on Tuesday. Both the Tendulkar and Chandhok families got together for a lavish ceremony. Some reports claimed Yuvraj Singh and his wife Hazel also attended the ceremony.

Sachin recently invited top dignitaries like Prime Minister Narendra Modi, President Droupadi Murmu and others for the wedding ceremony, which is expected to be held on March 5, 2026.
“Jab beta koi ladki ko ghar leke aata hai, introduce karne ke liye, then you know ke beta bada ho gaya hai (When a son brings a girl home to introduce her, then you know that the son has grown up). They look madly in love with each other. Arjun, I have to say I am extremely proud of you to have found someone so special who loves you as much as you love her,” said Sachin recently at a ceremony.
Arjun and Saaniya got engaged in August 2025. Arjun, who was recently traded from the Mumbai Indians to the Lucknow Super Giants in the Indian Premier League (IPL), is a regular in the Indian domestic cricket circuit. Saaniya is a successful entrepreneur and comes from a prominent background. She is the granddaughter of well-known Mumbai businessman Ravi Ghai and has reportedly been a close part of the Tendulkar inner circle for quite some time.
Arjun has carved out a distinct path in domestic cricket, transitioning from his early days in Mumbai to becoming a vital bowling all-rounder for Goa. A tall left-arm fast bowler and a capable lower-order batsman, he made a sensational Ranji Trophy debut for Goa in 2022 by scoring a century, famously emulating his father’s feat of reaching three figures in his maiden first-class match.
While he has faced the inevitable pressure of carrying a legendary surname, he has shown glimpses of his potential during his IPL stint with the Mumbai Indians. He will be under the spotlight again as he dons the LSG jersey next season.
