Gervonta Davis found himself in hot water again after he was arrested on July 11 in Miami Beach on charges of assaulting his ex-girlfriend.

Reports emerged that Davis slapped his former girlfriend in the face and hit her on the back of the head which left her with a cut inside her lip. Her mother also recorded a video where the WBA lightweight champion was seen throwing objects at the victim.

The incident occurred on Father’s Day, June 15, when Davis went to pickup his children from his exes home in Coral Gables. The former couple shares two children together.

Davis was released on bail Saturday morning and cameras were there to capture the first images of him since his arrest. He was seen walking out covering his face with a t-shirt, while multiple police officers escorted him to a vehicle, which can be viewed below.

Fans have reacted on social media to his arrest and release, with many taking a firm stance against it.

However, Davis still had some supporters in his corner.

Although Gervonta Davis is one of the biggest superstars in boxing, he’s certainly no role model outside the ring, often finding himself in trouble with the law. And this most recent incident put his rematch against Lamont Roach in jeopardy.

Their first encounter ended in a majority draw as ‘Tank’ took a deliberate knee but didn’t have a knockdown scored against him. Considering the controversy surrounding the fight, the rematch is massive for both fighters. Roach has claimed that the fight is still on course despite the recent turn of events.

Amanda Balionis mocked Rory McIlroy live on CBS Sports, highlighting his failed haircut following the third round of the Genesis Scottish Open.

McIlroy is tied in first heading into Sunday’s finale, as the Northern Irishman appears to have benefited from some family time after a short break from golf. McIlroy is 11-under-par through three rounds and seems to have rediscovered his form ahead of the Open Championship.

However, McIlroy’s haircut is much shorter than fans are used to, and Balions pressed him on the new style. During a comedic interview at The Renaissance Club, McIlroy admitted that he wrongly assumed that a shorter style would hide his gray hairs.

“You seem a little lighter, and it might be because of the haircut,” Balionis said to McIlroy as he wore a cap during their interview. “Can you just take the hat off for us? What happened there, Rory?”

McIlroy begrudgingly removed his hat to present a very short haircut, and said: “You know, I’m getting a little gray as everyone probably knows. I stupidly thought that by going shorter, it would take the grays out.

“If anything, I think it makes me look more gray. But it’ll grow back, that’s the good thing. It’ll be the perfect length for the Ryder Cup in September.”

While the Ryder Cup is considered the premium event, McIlroy will be desperate to win the Open Championship on July 20. The 153rd edition of the British Open will be held at the Royal Portrush in Northern Ireland for the third time, McIlroy’s home course.

McIlroy admitted to feeling frustrated after winning the Masters earlier this year, which saw him complete the golfing Grand Slam. He has since enjoyed a reset and has shaken the rust off at the Genesis Open.

“I think over these last couple of weeks, coming back over here, seeing people that I know that I haven’t seen since Augusta, having conversations about how people felt watching it, obviously rekindles how I felt playing,” McIlroy said.

“It’s been nice to have these couple of weeks to reflect, as well as rekindle my excitement and enthusiasm for the rest of the year. We have this week in Scotland and a massive week next week in Portrush.

“I’m excited for the rest of year,” McIlroy concluded. Although the World No. 2 has rediscovered his excitement, his form has also returned.

In an interview with Mirror U.S. Sports on Saturday, McIlroy admitted that he’s playing at a similar level to when he won the Masters. “I think… I think I’m just back to… pretty close to being back to the level I was at going into the Masters,” he said.

“I think i’ve had a little bit of a lull, which is understandable. I just feel like I’m getting back to the level I can play at.”

Former tennis superstar and former world No. 1 Serena Williams is now enjoying life with her family. 

After achieving everything possible in the world of tennis, she is embracing motherhood to the fullest. That doesn’t mean she’s neglecting her physical condition-quite the opposite.

She recently posted photos of her gym routine, showing how well she’s kept herself in shape. Her abs are sharply defined, even after giving birth to her second daughter, Adira.

Since retiring from professional tennis, Serena has not lowered the intensity with which she approaches life. While she no longer has to prepare relentlessly for Grand Slams or the constant demands of elite competition, she remains extremely active with other projects that keep her fully occupied.

Serena is a successful entrepreneur with several business ventures to manage, in addition to her role as a mother, which now involves caring for two daughters. Still, that hasn’t stopped her from staying in top physical condition. She frequently shares her workout routines on social media, keeping her millions of followers updated on her post-tennis lifestyle.

A post that earned admiration from her fans

On Instagram, Serena gave fans a glimpse of her gym strength and training routine. She took a mirror selfie showing off her sculpted abs, captioning the photo:

“Working out and working on my angles”.

Now 43 years old, Serena seems untouched by time. She looks phenomenal-especially for someone who has had two children. There’s no doubt that her genetics are exceptional, which is one of the reasons she was able to dominate the global tennis stage for so many years.

She now takes time to enjoy her family life. The chapter of constant, intense effort belongs to her professional past. These days, she enjoys vacations with her husband, Alexis Ohanian, and their daughters, Olympia and Adira.

Serena draws parallels between tennis and business

Williams has invested in ventures such as WYN Beauty and 926 Productions. She recently opened up about how closely managing her business interests mirrors the discipline required in tennis, where she reigned supreme.

In a recent interview with CNBC, Serena explained how the values that led her to greatness on the court are now part of her daily life as a businesswoman.

Tennis is played every day, you have to do it every day. You have to train, and business is the same. It is exactly the same. You have to be very disciplined. You also have to be determined through ups and downs, be determined to keep going.

She added:

And that’s one thing that I’m excited to do, is to talk to these mentors about that determination that I’ve shown so much in my past career and just bring it out to this new career. I think a lot of things are nature, but a lot of things can be nurtured.

Together with her husband and her sister Venus, Serena has also invested in multiple businesses, including the Los Angeles Golf Club, which they acquired a couple of years ago.

Erica Stoll made a statement without saying a word at last year’s Scottish Open, her presence signaling a strong character just weeks after she and Rory McIlroy reversed their decision to divorce.

The celebrated PGA Tour pro and his spouse stunned the golf community when they announced their intention to divorce last May. The couple tied the knot in April 2017, exchanging vows at the grand Ashford Castle in Ireland, following a whirlwind three-year romance.

Their marriage, however, teetered on uncertainty just before the 2024 PGA Championship, as divorce filings hit the headlines, portraying the union as “broken” after seven years. Yet, within a month, McIlroy and Stoll backtracked on their separation, with McIlroy confirming ahead of the U.S. Open that they would stay together.

Speaking to The Guardian, he said: “There have been rumors about my personal life recently, which is unfortunate. Responding to each rumor is a fool’s game.

“Over the past weeks, Erica and I have realised that our best future was as a family together. Thankfully, we have resolved our differences and look forward to a new beginning.”

A month later, Stoll was back on the golf course, supporting her husband as he aimed to defend his Scottish Open title at the Renaissance Club. Despite the intense scrutiny of their relationship by the global media, she showed remarkable resilience with her appearance, reports the Mirror US.

She was spotted following her husband around the North Berwick course, attentively watching his every move. McIlroy was also seen once again wearing his wedding ring, which he had removed in June when they announced their divorce plans.

Erica Stoll smiles

Although he started strong at the Scottish Open, he ultimately tied for fourth place with Aaron Rai, Collin Morikawa, and Ludvig Aberg, finishing at 14-under-par. The tournament’s top spot went to Scottish hero Robert MacIntyre, who ended Sunday’s play with an overall score of 18-under.

It’s been over a year since Stoll and McIlroy decided to reconcile and remain a couple, and the 37-year-old American has been spotted alongside her husband at numerous tournaments. Stoll was a significant presence during McIlroy’s Masters win in April, where she was photographed smiling and embracing him as they strolled along Augusta National’s greens and fairways.

She was also one of the first to congratulate him after his historic win at the tournament, where he joined the ranks of the elite few who have completed the Career Grand Slam. A tearful McIlroy was seen approaching his wife just off the 18th green, where they shared a heartfelt embrace. Shortly after, McIlroy hugged their young daughter, Poppy, in a tender moment.

In his victory speech, upon receiving the prestigious Green Jacket, McIlroy once again acknowledged his family for their unwavering support throughout the tournament’s ups and downs. He said: “And last but certainly not least, over to my left, my family, my team.

“They’ve been on this journey with me the whole way through. They know the burden that I’ve carried to come here every year and try, and try, and try again, and the one thing I would say to my daughter Poppy that is sitting over there, never give up on your dreams. Never ever give up on your dreams.

“Keep coming back, keep working hard, and if you put your mind to it you can do anything. I love you.”

Recently, Tiger Woods has been making more frequent public appearances, mostly to support his son Charlie’s rising junior golf career.

But while the 15-time major winner looked relatively recovered from his latest Achilles surgery, another rumor has resurfaced over the internet. This time, it is about his hair.

Last week, Dr. Gary Linkov, a certified hair and skin surgeon with over one million YouTube subscribers, disclosed that Woods may have undergone two failed hair transplant surgeries.

ORLANDO, FLORIDA - DECEMBER 20: Tiger Woods

READ: After Upsetting Tiger Woods With Retirement Call, Ex-Rival Tries to Undo Damage With 10-Word Statement

He predicted one to be around 2012, while another in 2017, totaling roughly 3,000 grafts to the frontal and mid-scalp.

To do this, Linkov used over 60 photos of Woods from the past three decades and traced the hair loss timeline. Per his observations, in 1994, Tiger had a full head of curly hair, but by the time the Big Cat won his first Masters (1997), there was “some frontotemporal recession.”

Frontotemporal recession is when there is hair loss or thinning at the front and top sides of the head. Usually, it is above the temples.

“It’s very mild, but it’s clearly there compared to just a few years before,” Linkov stated. Following years, there was still thinning of the hairline, but the major difference was spotted in 2006, the year Woods lost his father, Earl Woods.

The 40-year-old surgeon pointed towards Woods’ picture from his video game launch in 2006 and described it as “progressive frontal scalp thinning.”

Tiger Woods Undergoes First Transplant

Then came 2012, the year of his first suspected transplant.

“Tiger’s hairline is looking a bit stronger,” Linkov said in his video, adding he saw signs of FUT (Follicular Unit Transplant) scarring on the occipital scalp.

FUT scarring, in simple words, means the mark left on the back of the head after a hair transplant surgery.

The second surgery, according to Linkov, likely occurred in 2017, the same year Woods underwent spinal fusion surgery.

“The primary population of hair in the frontal area is actually the transplanted grafts,” Linkov explained. But the results didn’t hold.

According to the American doctor, by 2023, Woods’ crown thinning had worsened, and Tiger likely didn’t pursue much medical therapy after hair transplant (finasteride or minoxidil), which could have helped preserve density.

Reports confirm that 25% of men experience hair loss by age 21, and by age 50, that number jumps to 70%.

Woods, now 49, fits squarely into that curve. And if you skim through his photos from the 1990s to now, the transformation is pretty undeniable.

As of now, the 3-time Open Championship winner is unlikely to return to competitive golf until 2026, as stated by his doctor, Dr. Charlton.

Anthony Joshua will have been out of the ring for over 12 months by the time he returns.

The former two-time champion was last seen competing in September 2024 when he was stopped inside five rounds by young IBF champion Daniel Dubois.

That came after a period of rebuilding following two back-to-back losses in 2021 and 2022 to Oleksandr Usyk, which left Joshua without any of his three world title belts.

Right now, he is out recovering from minor elbow surgery but will soon be back in the ring and looking for an appropriate opponent.

Speaking to JackPotCity, former WBO heavyweight champion and current interim champion Joseph Parker was asked about the fight he would like most, and he went with the man who beat him back in 2018.

“I would most like to avenge the AJ fight because back in 2018 I was a very different fighter to the fighter I am now, and AJ is a different fighter as well. He’s been the poster boy for boxing and he’s brought a lot of attention to boxing, and I’d like to avenge that loss. I would love the opportunity to fight Joshua. I think he’s had some surgery, and he’s looking to come back again, so if that opportunity arises, I’ll take it with both hands, and it’ll be a great fight. If he’s still motivated and passionate about boxing, he should keep going. If that’s what he wants to do. He’s still got a lot to give.”

A rematch between these two would be a good fight for both at this stage. Parker holds the interim WBO strap and is keen to push on for a world title and Joshua is in need of getting back to winning ways and proving he still has plenty left and big ambitions of his own.

Parker, as mandatory for the full belt, is first in the rotation of challengers to face the winner of Usyk and Dubois’ upcoming undisputed contest. If the Ukrainian wins, there is a chance he decides to vacate the belts, meaning Parker could soon be elevated or fighting for the belt. Joshua would do well to keep him in his sights.

Renowned trainer Eddy Reynoso has fiercely defended his reputation after being dragged into the doping scandal involving Mexican fighter Francisco “Chihuas” Rodriguez.

Rodriguez analytically tested positive for a banned substance following his stunning win over Olympic gold medalist Galal Yafai in June, as revealed by Matchroom Boxing.

Hours before, a photo emerged of Reynoso alongside Rodriguez, and speculation exploded online. As the image went viral, some falsely suggested the coach was involved in the boxer’s preparation.

Reynoso’s Full Statement
Reynoso, known for masterminding the rise of Canelo Alvarez, responded directly to the allegations on Thursday with a full statement under his “No Boxing, No Life” brand.

“Given the recent comments and speculations about my relationship with boxer Francisco ‘Chihuas’ Rodriguez, it is pertinent to make the following clear:

“First and foremost, I am not Francisco’s coach or manager, whom I had the pleasure of meeting in person just yesterday.

“The support he received was through the promotion and sponsorship of the No Boxing No Life brand, which arranged three fights with Clase y Talento to help him achieve a championship fight.”

Denying Guilt by Association
On the guilty by association allegations, Reynoso added, “I have dedicated almost my entire life to boxing because it is my passion and reason for being; everything I have achieved has been through sacrifice, discipline, and dedication.

“In the way we supported Francisco, we have supported many fighters, and we will continue to do so until God allows us to.

“Regarding the positive test result in his recent fight, it will be Francisco who will have to make the pertinent clarifications regarding the same.

“I had no participation of any kind in that fight, nor was I present at it; therefore, I will not comment on it. To Francisco, all our support, and that he may overcome this obstacle.”

Prior Doping Links
Having links to five boxers who have tested positive, Reynoso’s reputation is taking a beating. Rodriguez follows Jaime Munguia, Julio Cesar Martinez, Ryan Garcia, and Canelo Alvarez himself.

Reynoso is making it clear he had nothing to do with Chihuas’ preparations.

“I consider it unfair that for appearing in a photo supporting Francisco Rodriguez, they want to hold me responsible for situations outside of my work.

“In my position as a trainer or manager, I have nothing to do with my fighters’ nutrition plans. I don’t cook for the fighters, I don’t buy their food, I don’t give them supplements, I don’t recommend supplements, and I certainly don’t give them banned substances.

“I support drug testing and clean boxing, and I hope that everyone I work with shares the same values.

“I am very grateful to the professional media that have investigated in depth and that have reported the facts about me,” he concluded.

Supporting Anti-doping
Reynoso’s statement is an apparent attempt to distance himself from any implication that his gym culture condones or promotes performance-enhancing drug use.

His reference to “clean boxing” reaffirms his long-standing position in support of anti-doping measures and VADA testing.

As of now, Rodriguez remains under investigation, with the result of the bout against Yafai hanging in the balance.

After a difficult, contentious weekend at the 2025 U.S. Open, Rory McIlroy was ready to get out of Pennsylvania.

McIlroy, 36, finished in a tie for 19th place at Oakmont Country Club on Sunday, June 15, eight shots behind the eventual winner, J.J. Spaun.

The tournament saw McIlroy lash out in anger on Friday, June 13, smashing a tee marker with his club out of frustration. Earlier in the day on Friday, McIlroy was also seen throwing his club down the fairway after hitting a poor approach shot.

When all was said and done, McIlroy admitted he was looking forward to putting it all behind him.

“It’s always nice to get home,’’ he told reporters after his final round on Sunday. “I feel like I live two different lives. I’m a dad and a husband when I’m away from here, and then I’m who I am when I’m here. It’s always nice to get away and feel a bit of normality.’’

McIlroy’s wife, Erica Stoll, and the couple’s 4-year-old daughter, Poppy, did not make the trip to Oakmont to watch the U.S. Open in person.

The golfer filed for divorce from Stoll after seven years of marriage in May 2024 before calling it off the following month.

McIlroy and Stoll are currently in the midst of building a new home in the UK, as McIlroy prepares for a busy summer golf schedule.

“We’ve got a lot to look forward to, got our new house in London, [playing] the Scottish [Open] and then obviously The Open [Championship] at Portrush,’’ he said. “Just trying to get myself in the right frame of mind to approach that.’’

The Open Championship, the final major on the 2025 PGA Tour schedule, will take place from July 17th to the 20th at Royal Portrush Golf Club in northern Ireland, roughly 60 miles from McIlroy’s hometown of Holywood, Ireland.

McIlroy will play in the Travelers Championship in Connecticut this weekend before the Genesis Scottish Open begins on July 10 at the Renaissance Club in North Burwick, Scotland.

When asked about his visible frustration on the course during the U.S. Open, McIlroy tossed it back into the face of the assembled media.

“It’s more a frustration with you guys,” McIlroy said on Saturday.

McIlroy’s relationship with reporters has grown increasingly antagonizing in recent months, with McIlroy routinely deciding to forego speaking to the media at tournaments.

“I’m just, yeah, I don’t know,” McIlroy said. “I’ve been totally available for the last few years, and I’m not saying — maybe not you guys, but maybe more just the whole thing.”

When McIlroy was asked if he thought being one of the faces of golf for so long had earned him a bit of grace with the media, he did not hesitate to answer.

“I feel like I’ve earned the right to do whatever I want to do, yeah,” McIlroy said.

Doral, Florida’s Local 10 reports that WBA lightweight champion Gervonta “Tank” Davis was arrested this morning after allegedly battering the mother of two of his children last month.

Police said Davis went to the victim’s home to pick up their children for Father’s Day, but a verbal altercation between him and the victim ensued, which escalated to a physical altercation.

According to the report, Davis told his ex-girlfriend to remove their children from his car as he no longer intended to take them, but when she leaned forward to retrieve their daughter from the backseat, Davis struck her in the back of the head and then slapped her in the face, causing a minor cut to the inner area of her lip.

Police said the victim then sent a text message to her mother, informing her that Davis was assaulting her and asking her to come outside.

The victim’s mother then exited the residence and saw her daughter visibly distressed and crying while arguing with Davis, the report stated.

According to the report, the victim’s mother filmed part of the altercation on her cellphone, which showed Davis throwing a small box at the victim.

Davis (30-0-1, 28 KO) has spent nearly a decade in trouble with the law for various reasons, most notably pleading guilty to a 2022 hit-and-run that left a pregnant woman injured and subsequently violating the terms of his house arrest. This marks his third arrest for allegedly assaulting a woman.

It is long past time to cut bait on this guy. Years of facing no consequences for his actions have made him a consistent and unrepentant danger to others. Scrap the Roach rematch and enforce some accountability for once.

When we talk about successful athletes, Serena Williams is one of the first names that comes to mind.

But this time, it wasn’t a play on the court that made her go viral, it was a TikTok video that many initially thought was a teaser for a reality show. And while it totally looked like one, the intention behind it was far more personal.

Serena has always kept it real on her socials, showing up without filters and talking about topics many tend to avoid body image, motherhood, self-love. Like that time she shared a postpartum photo and spoke openly about embracing her body as it is. That same honest and unfiltered energy came through once again in her most recent video.

The clip, posted on her official TikTok account, shows Serena sitting in a heart-shaped chair, soaking up the sun. The caption reads: “Love starts with loving yourself. Be kind to yourself today,” making it clear this wasn’t a sneak peek at a TV show, but rather a simple yet powerful reminder: self-love deserves the spotlight too.

Messages that resonate

The comments poured in. Many fans were touched by Serena’s message. “A beautiful reminder to practice self-love and kindness,” one user wrote. Another said, “You look gorgeous, you go girl,” and dozens more agreed that this kind of message is exactly what social media needs, especially in a space where so much feels fake or curated.

It’s not the first time Serena has used her platforms for more than just showcasing herself. With 2.7 million followers on TikTok, she’s made it clear she wants her legacy to go beyond tennis by being a voice for living with authenticity, acceptance, and self-love, without trying to meet anyone else’s standards.

Even though she’s stepped away from professional sports, Serena remains a force. She doesn’t just inspire through her athletic achievements, but through her humanity. And while, for a second, it seemed like she might be launching a show, what she gave us was something much more personal: a reminder that everything starts within.
