MLB  – A’s stadium deal wins legislative approval in Nevada as MLB weighs move to  Vegas

  The  Oakland Athletics have cleared a major hurdle for their planned relocation to  Las Vegas after the Nevada Legislature gave final approval to public funding  for a portion of a proposed $1.5 billion stadium with a retractable roof. The  deal approved Wednesday still needs the governor’s signature and approval from  MLB, but both are anticipated. Republican Gov. Joe Lombardo is the one who  proposed it.  The Nevada Assembly made  minor changes Wednesday to the measure the Senate had approved Tuesday just  hours before the Vegas Golden Knights won the Stanley Cup. The Senate voted  final approval Wednesday night.

Golf – Chaos rules the day as US Open comes to the  glitz of Los Angeles

  Brooks Koepka says he enjoys chaos. He’s come to the  right place at this U.S. Open. Players have been trying to digest the news of  the PGA Tour’s shock partnership with LIV Golf’s Saudi Arabian backers. And  then PGA Tour Commissioner Jay Monahan had to turn off day-to-day control to  two executives because of what’s described as a medical situation. Still to be  determined is what kind of chaos Los Angeles Country Club delivers. The U.S.  Open starts Thursday on a course smack dab in the middle of LA on a course that  looks big and plays small.

Golf – US Open barranca offers beauty, danger at LA  Country Club

  The word of the week at the U.S. Open is barranca. It  stems from the Spanish word meaning cliff, precipice, gully or ravine.  Merriam-Webster defines it as “a deep gully or arroyo with steep sides.” At Los  Angeles Country Club, the barranca, lined with sand and dotted with native  grasses and ball-entangling plants, winds through most of the first nine holes  and part of the back nine, as well. Much like the seawall cliffs at Pebble  Beach or the church pew bunker at Oakmont, it’s the barranca that stands out as  the most feared and talked-about feature for the U.S. Open’s first return to LA  since 1948.

NFL – Diggs returns to Bills practice; Coach McDermott  says concerns are resolved

  Stefon Diggs was back on the field practicing, and  Bills coach Sean McDermott said whatever lingering issues from last season that  raised concern and confusion over the absence of Buffalo’s top receiver a day  earlier have been resolved. McDermott expanded and clarified on the limited  statements he made a day earlier by saying Diggs didn’t skip the team’s  mandatory session on Tuesday, but was in fact excused. He also said a series of  discussions airing out Diggs’ concerns have left the team and receiver “in a  real good spot.” Diggs’ participation was his first with the team this  offseason after he skipped the Bills voluntary workout and practice sessions.

NHL – Golden Knights’ success lifts Las Vegas to  another level in sports world

  The modern era for Las Vegas sports began when the NHL  awarded the city an expansion franchise in 2016. The Golden Knights began  playing in the 2017-18 season. They won their first Stanley Cup on Tuesday.  Since the Knights came onboard, Las Vegas acquired an NFL team in the Raiders,  and the WNBA’s Stars moved from San Antonio and became the Aces. The Aces won  the championship last year and this season are again the league’s best team.
