1 week ago Stick review – Owen Wilson is utterly charming in the Ted Lasso of golf

This solid comedy-drama features the ever-watchable Hollywood star as a washed-up pro given a shot at redemption when he mentors a teen prodigy. It’s pleasant, feelgood TVI’ve never met a golfer in real life. I’ve always assumed I’m the wrong demographic – perhaps in terms of age, or class or at least tax bracket – or perhaps my lack of athleticism is so aggressive that it has prevented me from becoming friends with anyone with even the mildest sporting proclivity for all my life. Instead, I have essentially taken Mark Twain’s word for it that golf is a good walk spoiled, and gone about my days.Now, however, I think golf may be the spoiler of a good new comedy drama.

Unai Emery’s team will have to make do with the Europa League next season but they were culpable for many of the steps that led them thereSign up for Soccer with Jonathan Wilson hereA season reduced to a single moment – in Aston Villa’s case, perhaps even more than a season. The Manchester United goalkeeper Altay Bayindir slid out to gather the ball. He fumbled, slightly, allowing Morgan Rogers to poke the ball away from him. The referee Thomas Bramall thought Bayindir had had the ball under control and blew for a free-kick just before Rogers knocked the ball into the empty net. Replays showed decisively that Bayindir never had the ball under control. But because Bramall had stopped the game before Rogers put the ball over the line, the goal could not be given by the video assistant referee.Three minutes later, Amad Diallo put United ahead, his team went on to win, and Villa finished sixth in the Premier League, meaning they are out of next season’s Champions League. Given how close...
