WWE star Danhausen talks debut, Danhausenettes
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
Danhausen made his debut at Elimination Chamber in February when he appeared out of a mysterious box that was set up on the stage.
The pro wrestling star’s entrance came with a puzzled fan base and questions about who this guy was and how he was going to fit on a crowded roster filled with talented wrestlers all vying for championships and time on the major premium live events, “Monday Night Raw,” and “Friday Night SmackDown.”

Danhausen came out with his faced painted and several women, known at the time as the Danhausenettes. It was his first appearance since he left All Elite Wrestling, where he had the same gimmick – putting a “curse” and emerging as more of a comedy act than anything.
In the weeks leading up to WrestleMania, Danhausen caught on with the fans. He “cursed” The Miz, Kit Wilson, Dominik Mysterio, the New York Mets and Stephen A. Smith in between his debut and WrestleMania 42. In Las Vegas, his T-shirts were everywhere and dozens of fans painted their faces to match the “very nice, very evil” superstar.
“I’ve only been here for about two months, and look at the impact Danhausen’s made,” he told Fox News Digital before WrestleMania Night 1. “He’s got a merchandise stand at WrestleMania. He’s going to be at WrestleMania. And his face is on everything. Gotta get it on the side of the truck still. But what was your question? I was talking about how great I am.”

Danhausen also provided an update on the Danhausenettes, who haven’t been seen since they were dancing and performing on the stage at Elimination Chamber.
“Well, we gave them a vacation,” he said. “A great reception. We gave them their human monies to go off and do whatever they want for the time being. Perhaps we’ll see them again. Perhaps we won’t. I don’t know. It’ll be a surprise.”
Danhausen appeared at WrestleMania Night 2 – his first WrestleMania.
He came out to a huge reaction in a segment that involved John Cena, The Miz and Wilson. He was accompanied by pro wrestlers rom Micro Wrestling. They also got involved as Danhausen struck The Miz in the groin. The Micro Wrestling performers carried The Miz out of the ring.

Hockey India secretary general held guilty of contempt by Delhi HC | Other Sports News
The Delhi High Court has held Hockey India secretary general Bhola Nath Singh guilty of contempt of court for wilfully disobeying its order.
Justice Purushaindra Kumar Kaurav said he would hear the issue of sentence on May 4 but granted Singh liberty to “purge” the contempt by undertaking “such measures as found fit.”
The court passed the judgement on April 20 on a contempt plea by Syeed Asima Ali, the elected Vice President of Hockey India, who alleged non-compliance with an order passed on January 17, 2025, by the sports body’s officials.
The court stated that as per its directions, Hockey India officials were required to give requisite links to the petitioner to enable her to participate in all executive board meetings but they failed to do so for meetings held on July 4, 2025 and July 27, 2025.
It observed that any purported subsequent events did not excuse the officials from their obligation to provide links to the petitioner, when they had not even sought modification of the direction.
“No endeavour has ever been made to purge the contempt. The minutes of the meeting, links for which were not provided to the petitioner, still stares at the face of the Court’s subsisting directions. There was not even a whisper of an apology, let alone an unconditional apology. Even otherwise, also, an unconditional apology, unlike the holy water from the Ganges, cannot purify the respondents, specifically Mr. Bhola Nath Singh, of his conscious, concerted, deliberate and willful disobedience of the Court’s directions,” the court stated in the judgement.
It held that the manner in which Hockey India and Singh conducted himself through the course of the present proceedings amounted to a clear case of contempt of court.
Stating that non-compliance of court orders by a National Sports Federation, which functions under the aegis of and receives funds from the State, was no less than an administrative sin, the court concluded, “This Court finds the respondents, and specifically Mr. Bhola Nath Singh, Secretary General of Hockey India, guilty of committing contempt of Court, by willfully disobeying/not complying with the order dated 17.01.2025”.
The order of January 17, 2025 was passed on a petition by Ali for the removal of Singh from the post of secretary general of Hockey India.
It was alleged that Singh is ineligible to hold any elected office in Hockey India owing to the tenure and age restrictions enumerated in the Sports Code.
As an interim direction, the court asked Hockey India officials to provide the requisite links to the petitioner to enable her to participate in all executive board meetings.

Marco Rose: Bournemouth ‘in good hands’ with new boss, says Andoni Iraola
Bournemouth manager Andoni Iraola says the appointment of Marco Rose to replace him in the summer will leave the club “in very good hands”.
Former Borussia Dortmund boss Rose, 49, will take over at the end of the season when Iraola’s contract expires.
Rose has been without a club since he was sacked by RB Leipzig in March 2025 and has not previously managed in England.
He led Red Bull Salzburg to two Austrian Bundesliga titles and the Austrian Cup, and won the German Cup and German Super Cup with Leipzig.
Rose was also one of the candidates considered by Tottenham Hotspur after the sacking of Thomas Frank in February.
Iraola said: “I think the club will be in very good hands. He’s a great manager.
“I praised him a few years ago, I always liked his teams and I hope he continues that.
“He’s a good manager with a lot of European experience. He looks very exciting. I don’t know him personally but I always like his teams.
“They should be happy because he’s someone who can definitely improve the team. I’m sure the players are happy they know what’s happening. “
Iraola has guided the Cherries to a 13-game unbeaten run in the Premier League and they are eighth before facing Leeds on Wednesday.
He could deliver European football for the first time in Bournemouth‘s history before departing. His next job is not yet known.
“We are in a good place in the standings but it’s going to be so difficult for us,” Iraola said.
“We are competing against not one or two but a lot of teams.”

Christian Pulisic makes big statement about US team ahead of World Cup
Christian Pulisic has declared the current United States national team to be the strongest he has ever been a part of, with the AC Milan forward expressing significant optimism for the squad ahead of the 2026 World Cup.
Pulisic, a long-standing figurehead for US soccer, believes the team is in an excellent position as anticipation builds for the tournament, which is set to be staged across the United States, Canada and Mexico.
“I think you could say so,” Pulisic told Reuters when asked if this iteration of the US team was its strongest since he established himself in the squad.
“Looking at the guys playing at the highest levels and doing extremely well at their clubs, and I think for sure you have a really, really strong squad and depth as well. Multiple guys that can play in every position. It’s a very strong team.”
The squad, led by Pulisic and coach Mauricio Pochettino, is expected to feature attacking talents such as Folarin Balogun and Tim Weah, alongside midfielders Weston McKennie and Tyler Adams. Defensively, Tim Ream and Chris Richards are anticipated to play key roles, with Matt Freese and Matt Turner in goal.
For Pulisic, the prospect of competing in a World Cup on home turf adds an extra layer of motivation to soccer’s premier event.

“A World Cup is enough motivation in itself and having it in the US, having my family and close friends there, there’s just nothing more you can ask for,” he stated.
The 27-year-old hopes American fans will provide a crucial boost to the team when the tournament commences. The US are scheduled to face Paraguay on 12 June at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles.
“I know the energy in the stadiums is going to be great,” he said. “We want to take as much of that as we can, take that motivation and push to make the American people proud.”
Pulisic, who has represented the US since his teenage years, emphasized the profound significance of wearing the national team shirt.
“Representing the US and being able to wear that crest, I don’t take it lightly,” he affirmed. “It’s something I’ve been doing since I was 17 years old… I’m very proud to be an American and am grateful for everything this country has given me. I just want to give everything back and hopefully make some people proud.”
Often labelled “Captain America” and seen as the public face of the men’s game in the country, Pulisic revealed he prefers to ignore such external pressures.
“I’d say I definitely tune it out,” he explained. “It’s not something I look into too much. I worry about what I can do and how I can help my team and how I can help us win.”
He added that his leadership style has evolved towards setting standards through his work ethic rather than through speeches.
“I hope what I do from a day-to-day perspective, in training every single day, the way that I work, I hope I can show people my dedication to the team and lead by example,” he said.

Pulisic also clarified that he does not feel burdened by a broader responsibility to be the sport’s standard-bearer in the United States, though he hopes to inspire younger players.
“I’m focused on doing my job,” he said. “If I can inspire some people along the way, that’s amazing. That pushes me and I hope to do that. But I don’t feel pressure to do it.”
Despite growing expectations for the co-hosts, Pulisic was hesitant to define success by a specific finishing position, stating only that the initial objective is to progress from the group stage before approaching the tournament one match at a time.
His message to supporters, however, was unequivocal: “The team’s in a good place. People should be excited and hopefully ready to cheer us on.”

PGA Tour leaving Hawaii in 2027, ending a 56-year tournament streak
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
The PGA Tour has announced that it will not be hosting an event in Hawaii during the 2027 season, ending a 56-year run of holding a tournament in The Aloha State. The change comes as the Tour and CEO Brian Rolapp have consistently teased a revamped schedule beginning next year.
The Tour was forced to cancel The Sentry at the start of the 2026 campaign due to the dying grass on the Plantation Course at Kapalua amid a local dispute with the company responsible for delivering water to the area.

PGA TOUR CEO ADDRESSES LIV GOLF’S UNCERTAIN FUTURE, PLAYERS POTENTIALLY RETURNING
With The Sentry being canceled, the Sony Open at Waialae Country on Oahu served as the Tour’s season opener in ‘26, which was won by Chris Gotterup. The event was in the final year of its sponsorship, although the Tour has shared that it is working toward making the event the opening event on the PGA Tour Champions circuit.

The Tour’s removal of The Sentry and the Sony Open wipes out what has now turned into a traditional two-week stretch on the island to begin a new season.
MATT FITZPATRICK HAS PERFECT RESPONSE TO USA RYDER CUP FANS AFTER PGA TOUR VICTORY
The PGA Tour did not share further details about the 2027 schedule upon its announcement about leaving Hawaii, but with Sentry reportedly being an event title-sponsor through 2035, it will need to find a new landing spot on the calendar. The logical stop would be Torrey Pines in San Diego, which checks the West Coast and great weather boxes, but the venue is also looking for a new sponsor, as its deal with Farmers Insurance ended in 2026.

The Tour’s decision not to begin next season in Hawaii makes sense, as there are plenty of venues in the lower 48 states that are much easier to operate from, but the departure will have a tremendous financial impact on the state.
The Honolulu Star-Advertiser reports that The Sentry is estimated to have a $50 million annual impact on the community, while the Sony Open directly generates an estimated $100 million in revenue per year, plus another $1 million per year to Friends of Hawaii charities.

Canada rises to ninth in latest FIFA women’s rankings
Canada’s women’s soccer team moved up one place to ninth in the FIFA rankings released Tuesday after a two-win showing at the recent FIFA Series in Brazil.
The Canadians opened with a 4-0 win over Zambia on April 11 and a 3-1 win over South Korea on April 15 before closing with a 1-0 loss to seventh-ranked Brazil on Saturday.
Those results were enough to move Canada up one spot, with the Netherlands rising to 10th just behind them and Korea DPR dropping out of the top tier to 11th.
At the top, Spain held No. 1, the United States stayed second, and England climbed to third after beating Spain, pushing Germany down to fourth.
Japan made the biggest move inside the top 10, jumping three places to fifth after an Asian Cup title.
Canada is building toward the CONCACAF W Championship in November, which will serve as a qualifier for both the 2027 World Cup in Brazil and the 2028 Olympics in Los Angeles.

Adam Schefter Reveals Patriots Have ‘Interest’ In This Prospect With No. 31 Pick
Adam Schefter Reveals Patriots Have ‘Interest’ In This Prospect With No. 31 Pick originally appeared on NESN. Add NESN as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
The pursuit of an A.J. Brown trade currently is the top story surrounding the New England Patriots. The reporting on the Brown trade has made it easy to forget that the Patriots soon will add several players in the 2026 NFL Draft.

So, what will New England do with the 31st-overall pick?
ESPN insider Adam Schefter offered insight in the latest episode of his podcast. Schefter identified Arizona State offensive tackle Max Iheanachor as a prospect whom New England could target late in the first round.
“I have a sense the Patriots might have some interest in (Iheanachor),” Schefter said. “They have to operate under the assumption that AJ Brown’s gonna be coming in, so they’re gonna be in a good spot.”
It’s unclear whether the Patriots would target a tackle like Iheanachor as a replacement for right tackle Morgan Moses or left tackle Will Campbell. Iheanachor primarily played right tackle at Arizona State, but New England could view him as a player capable of playing either spot.

Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel and personnel executive Eliot Wolf have insisted Campbell will remain at left tackle, but that wouldn’t preclude them from drafting a prospect with left-tackle traits as a contingency plan in case Campbell eventually needs to be moved to left guard. It’s also worth noting that Vrabel attended a scouting event at Arizona State last month, giving him an up-close look at Iheanachor.
Here’s what NFL Media’s Lance Zierlein wrote of Iheanachor in his scouting summary:
“An ascending, traits-heavy tackle prospect, Iheanachor is a former high school hooper and late-comer to football. He has good length and excellent lean mass. His hands and footwork need refinement, but his range and play strength should translate to any run scheme. There is work to do with pass-protection technique, but strong performances against Texas Tech’s rush duo last season and at the Senior Bowl suggest Iheanachor might be more game-ready than I previously anticipated. In a year light on high-end tackles, Iheanachor’s measurables, athleticism and upside could push him up the board.”
The NFL draft begins Thursday night.

Metz: Tahirys dos Santos signs first contract after surviving Swiss bar fire
Metz defender Tahirys dos Santos, who survived a Swiss bar fire on New Year’s Eve that killed 41 people, has signed his first professional contract.
The 19-year-old, who helped rescue his partner at the Le Constellation bar in the ski resort of Crans-Montana, was one of more than 100 people injured, sustaining burns to 30% of his body that needed a skin graft.
He returned to action for Metz reserves on 11 April.
Dos Santos, who joined the academy aged eight, has agreed a one-year deal.
“This moment has an even more special meaning after the difficult months I went through in hospital,” he told the club website.

Does storing a left-behind club in your bag count toward your total?
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.
During a local tournament, I walked onto a green and spotted a pitching wedge obviously left by a group ahead. After we all putted out, I picked up the wedge and put it in the basket of my cart, thinking I would drop it off at the clubhouse at the turn or give it to its owner if we caught up with him. After I teed off on the next hole, a fellow competitor said I had violated Rule 4, having more than 14 clubs in my possession which called for a 4-stroke penalty. I argued that I never intended to use the club and did not even put it in my bag, so it couldn’t be a violation. What say you? – Rick Itami, Liberty Lake, WA
We say kudos to you for not telling this dunderhead to go pound sand or taking even more drastic action.
Clearly, there can be quite a difference between referencing a Rule and knowing what in fact it says. Rule 4 — 4.1, to be exact — specifically covers this courteous act, noting it does not add to one’s club count, so long as the club isn’t used. Your competitor was at best wrong and at worst trying to get one (or four) over on you.
For more club-count related guidance from our guru, read on …
Can you carry clubs outside of your bag and not have them count toward the legal limit of 14? —Joseph Mills, Pinehurst, N.C.
Yes… but only if you balance them on your nose.
Come now, Joseph — 14 clubs maximum means 14 clubs maximum (per Rule 4.1b[1]), not 14 clubs and however many more you can stash under your armpit, in your opponent’s bag and behind bushes.
Breaching this rule is a two-stroke penalty per hole in stroke play, maximum two holes, and once you realize you’re in breach you must declare the extra clubs out of play immediately or be disqualified. Golf is a game of honor, not hoarding.
