BRASELTON, Ga. -- Charlie Woods now shares one honor with Tiger Woods, as the son of the 15-time major champion was named first-team All-America by the American Junior Golf Association on Wednesday. Charlie Woods, a junior at The Benjamin School in South Florida, was among 12 boys named to the first team of the AJGA's annual list. Miles Russell, the 17-year-old who was an alternate at the Walker Cup this summer, was selected player of the year for the second time.

Creme: Yes, and the Huskies might be even more dominant this season. It seems strange to say that a team that lost Bueckers might be better than it was a year ago, but this Huskies team could be even more successful than the 2024-25 version that lost three games en route to the national title. In adding Wisconsin transfer Serah Williams, coach Geno Auriemma provides help that Strong might not even need but will surely welcome.

Who is most likely to battle for those rights is more apparent in the major conferences. Duke's Cameron Boozer and NC State's Darrion Williams are candidates in the ACC. Donovan Dent, the UCLA star who transferred from New Mexico, could push Purdue's Braden Smith and Trey Kaufman-Renn in the Big Ten. Kentucky's Otega Oweh and Florida's Alex Condon lead a crowded field of candidates for individual honors in the SEC.

Nelson Dong's victory at the 2025 Australian Poker Open main event marks a significant achievement with 690 entries and a prize pool exceeding $2 million.
