Dustin Johnson on LIV's future: 'Your guess is as good as mine'

NEWTOWN SQUARE, Pa. — Dustin Johnson is content to compete in the PGA Championship this weekend — and that’s about as far as he’s willing to look ahead.

When asked where he will be in 2027 in the wake of the Saudi Arabia Public Investment Fund’s announcement that it will no longer back LIV Golf beyond this year, Johnson didn’t have much of an answer.

“I think Scott’s doing a good job,” Johnson said of LIV CEO Scott O’Neil. “I think your guess is as good as mine with what happens next year.”

In January, LIV Golf announced a multi-year extension with Johnson, the 4Aces GC captain and two-time major champion.

A 24-time winner on the PGA Tour, Johnson was one of the first players to defect for LIV Golf and became the Saudi-backed circuit’s first season champion in 2022. Johnson, 41, won the U.S. Open in 2016 and the Masters in 2020.

Johnson carded an even-par 70 on Friday that included three birdies against three bogeys. That followed an opening-round 72 to place him at 2-over-par 142 for the tournament.

“I’m happy with my game, honestly,” Johnson told reporters. “Not very thrilled with my driver. Everything else feels really good. I’m rolling it well, short game is good and obviously it’s difficult around these greens. It’s hard to judge the last few shots I hit, seemed really nice and that I hit better shots than where they ended up.

“But it’s just tough. Everybody’s dealing with it. The wind will be blowing and then all of a sudden all the way down a little bit, and that’s the difference 10 or 15 yards out here and that’s a big deal.”

Tom Brady's latest venture: fashion model

Tom Brady has a full career resume that includes listings as a seven-time Super Bowl winner, minority owner of the Las Vegas Raiders and top NFL analyst.

On Saturday, he added a non-football line: runway model.

Demna Gvasalia, the creative director of Italian fashion house Gucci, debuted his first “cruise” collection Saturday night in New York’s Times Square, with part of the area turned into a runway. The city was chosen for the unveiling because of its deep ties to Gucci; it was where the designer opened its first store outside of Italy in 1953, the New York Post reported.

Cruise collections aren’t just vacation wear anymore. Instead, the line is supposed to reflect the area in which the fashions are worn, reflecting the “plurality of styles that intersect like the streets of the city,” said Demna, who goes by one name.

Brady, 48, strutted on the runway in a fitted black leather jacket with matching pants.

Others in the fashion show included heiress Paris Hilton and supermodel Cindy Crawford, who closed the show in a black evening gown.

Celebrities in the crowd included entertainers Mariah Carey and Shawn Mendes, actress Lindsay Lohan, and F1 champion Lewis Hamilton, whose reported girlfriend, Kim Kardashian, also was there.

The Tampa Bay Rays placed outfielder Jake Fraley on the 10-day injured list Sunday due to a hernia.

The move is retroactive to Saturday, when Fraley was scratched from the lineup for Tampa Bay’s game against the Miami Marlins. He went 0-for-3 in Friday’s series opener against the Marlins in St. Petersburg, Fla.

Fraley, 30, is batting .232 with two homers and five RBIs in 28 games during his first season with the Rays.

Also Sunday, the Rays recalled infielder Carson Williams from Triple-A Durham.

Williams, 22, is batting .238 with five homers and 21 RBIs in 32 games this season.

He appeared in seven games with the Rays earlier this season, batting .130 (3-for-23) with three RBIs.

Quinn Hughes open to contract extension with Wild

Quinn Hughes made a tremendous impact during his half season in Minnesota, and the standout defenseman is interested in a contract extension with the Wild.

The older brother of New Jersey Devils center Jack Hughes made headlines when he was traded from the Vancouver Canucks to the Wild on Dec. 12, 2025.

A captain with the Canucks, Quinn Hughes did not disappoint in Minnesota, amassing 53 points (five goals, 48 assists) in 48 games. He also led the NHL in ice-time average in the regular season (27:44 per game).

Hughes continued his production in the postseason, putting up 15 points (four goals, 11 assists) in 11 games and a plus-10 rating. He led Minnesota to a first-round upset of second-seeded Dallas before the Colorado Avalanche ousted the Wild in five games.

“I really like it here. I would definitely be open to re-signing. We’ll see what (general manager) Billy (Guerin) wants to do,” Hughes said Friday. “We’re 36 hours removed (from elimination). I’m not sure I’m ready to get into details, what they would look like.”

Hughes will be entering the final season of his six-year, $47.1 million deal, but can sign an extension with Minnesota on July 1.

All three Hughes’ brothers (Luke is a defenseman with the Devils) are represented by agent Pat Brisson. Jack is signed through 2030 and there has been speculation that Quinn would sign a three-year deal so both brothers could sign with the same team in advance of the 2030-31 season.

“Between brothers, there’s so many conversations. But we haven’t had any specific (conversations) about this,” Brisson said. “Those are possibilities. I’m not going to deny the fact.”

Hughes plans on remaining in Minnesota for at least part of the summer as he decompresses from a year with three teams, including his stint as a member of the gold-medal winning United States Olympic ice hockey squad.

“I think I can say that I really like it here,” Hughes said of Minnesota. “I love the team. I love the city and the fans. Just being in that locker room, it’s a special group. It’s an amazing state, so passionate about hockey.

“From a mental aspect, a lot has happened this year. I never let myself process it or let my hair down a little bit,” he said. “It’ll be nice to just go home, process the whole year and get some rest.”
