The wind hit 40 miles per hour on Saturday at Shinnecock Hills. It took one hour and 50 minutes for the first birdie to appear. Ten players started the day under par. By sunset, five remained. The course was baking out. The greens were turning pale. And somewhere in the middle of all that attrition, […]
The sun dropped behind Shinnecock Hills, and Wyndham Clark walked off into it. A Long Island sunset, the kind photographers chase. He had just bogeyed the 18th from four feet—a push right so weak it looked like a confession—and still led by six. The crowd thinned. The grandstands emptied. And Clark began the hardest part […]
NEW YORK — A startup called Micro AGI is sending camera-equipped cleaners into New York City apartments at no charge, collecting first-person footage to train the next generation of household robots. The initiative, called Shift, launched with cleaners operating five apartments daily, five days a week, each worker wearing a cap-mounted camera connected to a […]
GENEVA — US Vice-President JD Vance landed in Switzerland early Sunday for direct talks with Iran, hours after Tehran announced it had closed the Strait of Hormuz in response to Israeli strikes on southern Lebanon. The US military disputed the claim, with Centcom saying 55 merchant ships transited the waterway on Saturday, carrying over 17 […]
BEIRUT — A ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah took effect at 4 p.m. local time on Thursday, according to US officials. Within minutes, rescue workers in Nabatieh reported at least 12 air strikes across southern Lebanon. The Lebanese health ministry confirmed 47 people died in the overnight bombardment, including women and children. Another 97 were […]
The number on the report was 148,805. Tons of carbon dioxide equivalent, down from 228,793 in 2018. A 35% reduction. A 12% drop year on year. Formula 1’s annual sustainability review, published this week, declares the sport “on track” to achieve its commitment to become net-zero carbon by 2030. Stefano Domenicali, the president and chief […]
The error was 77 metres. The pit lane at Monaco, measured by Formula 1 and the FIA for the purpose of enforcing the speed limit, was 77 metres longer than the route drivers could actually take. The speed limit is calculated by the time it takes to travel a certain distance. If the distance is […]
The drive on the 14th sailed so far right that it left the hole and found the trampled-down grass where the spectators had been walking. Wyndham Clark had a perfect lie. He punched his second onto the green. He made par. On the 15th, he drove into the undergrowth again, hacked out again, found the […]
The fog burned off. The wind dropped. The afternoon wave played Shinnecock Hills as it rarely allows itself to be played—softened, gentled, almost forgiving. Wyndham Clark took his chance. Five birdies. An eagle. One bogey. A 64 that left him at six under par, two shots clear of the field, the first-round leader of the […]
The fog rolled in before dawn. The start was delayed two hours. When play finally began, the wind was already gusting past 30 miles per hour across the 7,440-yard track, and Shinnecock Hills was doing what Shinnecock Hills does: punishing good shots, exposing bad ones, separating the players who can survive from those who cannot.
