Fashionista Jason Day pulled up to the final major of the season in an outfit that would be better used to disguise oneself in a dense woods.

Day’s outfits are always one to watch out for as the 38-year-old is known for his spontaneous sets and is sponsored by Malbon. He prepared for the Masters in a yellow set covered with colorful birds before Augusta National chiefs told him it was too much. At the final major of the season, Day was up to it again.

This time, his outfit was a matching camouflage for the practice round and included a dark green base with some pastel yellow lines. Needless to say, fans took to the comments to share their opinion.

• MLB slammed for 'un-American' Netflix coverage of Home Run Derby

• Jordan Walker more than doubles his 2026 MLB earnings with Home Run Derby prize money

“I think my grandson has a pair of PJs and that look like this,” wrote one fan.

“I don’t know how much Malbon pays JDay…..but for his wife to allow him to leave the house like this…it has to be a s--- ton of $$,” wrote another.

One other mentioned the marketing by Malbon, specifically on major weeks as they also signed Jackson Koivun who recently missed the cut at his debut tournament and the John Deere Classic.

“Need to see Malbon's gross social media impression data on Major weeks. Masterclass,” wrote another fan.

At the Masters though, higher-ups denied a few of his outfits, forcing the tour star to find a different article to represent.

Day was told a top is acceptable, but was forced to skip out on the matching set and wear solid bottoms.

• Skip Bayless warns Republicans' Caitlin Clark letter will 'antagonize and infuriate' WNBA stars

• Davante Adams drops massive Aaron Donald hint to fuel NFL retirement U-turn speculation

“If you are on the course and you are tuned in with nature and know the sounds of birds, you'll make more birdies," Malbon said of his outfit. “It's inspired by Native American beliefs. Each one of these birds has a different meaning. I’ve been sending the noises of the birds to Jason for the last six months. Hopefully, he’s trying to stay in touch with nature.”

A former World No. 1, Day made his 15th Masters appearance, having secured five top-10 finishes at Augusta National.

"We kind of did, but we kind of cut everything in half," Day, 38, said last year. "With what we're supposed to wear, they said that's a little bit much, but that's OK.

- Christopher Nolan’s *The Odyssey *has fans planning major life events around the movie’s premiere.

- Tickets went on sale last year for the Greek epic, with some fans traveling cross-country or going to early morning screenings just to see the movie in IMAX 70mm.

- *The Odyssey *premieres on July 17 — for those who have tickets, that is.

For Christopher Nolan fans, it’s been an odyssey to see, well, *The Odyssey*.

Fans are flying across the country, buying tickets for 2 a.m. screenings months in advance, and even planning their family around the premiere of the Oscar winner’s latest movie. Yes, you read that right. Someone planned their pregnancy around *The Odyssey *premiere.

Amber Connaghan told *Variety** *that after a friend of hers got pregnant last year, she said: “‘OK, it’s time for you to have your second child.” Connaghan demurred, all because of *The Odyssey*. “I was like, ‘No, I have to wait a few months. Otherwise, it’s going to be too close to *The Odyssey*.’”

She bought a ticket for the movie last year at a theater three hours away from her in California so she could see the film in the IMAX 70mm format.

“There’s a little bit of FOMO,” she added. “I want to see what someone like Nolan can do with something as epic and spectacular as *The Odyssey*. As soon as the tickets went on sale a year ago, I knew this was going to be something pretty special. I knew it was something I didn’t want to miss.”

The movie, adapted from Homer’s ancient Greek epic poem *The Odyssey*, was filmed entirely with IMAX cameras, sending fans to IMAX theaters, along with the selected ones showing the film in 70mm.

Jim McHugh, for example, is flying from Pittsburgh to Los Angeles to experience Nolan’s movie-making magic. “Seeing something in IMAX 70mm has been a bucket list item for me since I saw Ryan Coogler do a video about the screenings for *Sinners*,” he told the publication, mentioning that his high school job working the local cinema’s projector endeared him to the medium.

Meanwhile, Christopher Vanderpool told *Business Insider** *that he will be flying from New England to the Bay Area to catch the movie with friends for its opening weekend.

“As people have rediscovered what the possibilities of cinema are, especially event cinema, I think it’s compelling for folks to find a way to get out with their friends — or themselves — and engage in this,” Vanderpool declared. “It’s a really, really rare format, even now.”

Tickets have been available for *The Odyssey *since last year. Even after the movie’s distributor Universal released another batch of tickets in June, fans faced crashing websites and hours-long waits online to lock in a screening.

Fans posted on social media about the strange times and seating arrangements for showings they need to book in order to experience the film, if they even are able to secure a seat.

*Business Insider** *reported that the average price for a ticket through July 10 on eBay is $165. Some opening night spots in Los Angeles are selling for closer to $600.

The hype surrounding the movie may be worth the hassle.

Fandango and Rotten Tomatoes’ Erik Davis declared *The Odyssey *is “the must-see cinematic event of the summer — and quite possibly the year.”

“The production design is incredible, the action is breathtaking, and the scale is unlike anything he’s done before,” he wrote on X.

*The Odyssey* is “staggering” until the final act, “that’s as good as anything Nolan’s done,” wrote *DigitalSpy* movie editor Ian Sandwell.

Nolan’s films, such as *Inception*, the *Batman *trilogy, *Interstellar*, and most recently *Oppenheimer*, have endeared him to cinephiles around the world. His new epic* *is expected to do the same.

- Daveigh Chase’s death certificate revealed her final resting place.

- The *Ring* star died at 35 on June 16.

- She died from AIDS and drug use.

New details surrounding Daveigh Chase’s death are emerging.

A death certificate for the *Lilo & Stitch* actress obtained by Page Six revealed Chase’s final resting place.

The document stated that Chase was cremated after her death, and that the actress’ remains were given to her mother, Cathy Chase Schwaller.

Chase died on June 16 at age 35. Her cause of death was later determined to be acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS), with drug use listed as a significant condition.

Court documents indicated that the *Ring* star left behind an estate worth $400,000.

Cathy previously told the *Daily Mail* that she believed her daughter’s struggle with addiction began around 2016 after she was prescribed painkillers following an injury from a motorcycle accident. “She was seeking drugs and was partying with the wrong people,” she said. “I never kicked my daughter out. She wanted freedom and these people got her hooked on some drugs. That was the beginning.”

The *Donnie Darko* star’s former manager, John Ryan Jr., previously told ** that Daveigh checked into “a couple rehabs,” but indicated that she sought treatment more for “drinking than heavy drugs.” He also said that the actress was “sober [for] a while” when he fell out of contact with her in late 2015.

Cathy also told *Daily Mail* that she last saw her daughter in person in 2019 after the actress had publicized run-ins with law enforcement.

“She was completely gone, like, out of her mind,” the actress’ mother said. “I honestly thought there was something wrong with her. My daughter was never diagnosed with mental health other than PTSD. But the drugs took hold of her.”

The former child star’s mother said that she had not heard from the actress in six years when she came across a Reddit video that claimed to feature the actress.

“In the video, she was in a really bad shape. She was very frail. She was fragile. She was saying no, and trying to push the camera away, and they were shoving it in her face. It was gross,” Cathy remembered. “She was obviously drugged out of her mind. She was nothing but skin and bones, and I didn’t want to think that was my daughter.”

Chase last appeared on screen in the 2016 films *Jack Goes Home *and *American Romance.* Other prominent projects included the American dub of *Spirited Away*, *Lilo & Stitch: The Series*, *Betsy’s Kindergarten Adventures*, and episodes of shows like *CSI: Crime Scene Investigation*, *Without a Trace*, and *Touched By an Angel*.

HR Derby

Fans are fed up with the Home Run Derby, and it isn’t because of the new format.

Several fans took to X to express their displeasure with comedian Will Ferrell being on the Netflix broadcast for the event, especially after he began the night at Citizens Bank Ballpark on Monday, asking: “Are you ready to watch some balls go very far into the air?”

It’s the streaming service’s first time broadcasting the Home Run Derby.

Ferrell was joined by Luke Wilson and Jimmy Tatro during player intros.

All three are in the new Netflix series “The Hawk.”

“I love Will Ferrell, he’s arguably the most important comedic figure of my childhood. Hearing him instead of Chris Berman at the Derby breaks my heart,” one fan wrote.

“I’m not sure if this is a hot take or not, but I find will ferrell insufferable. instant turn off anything he’s in,” added another fan.

“Ben Rice was in diapers the last time Will Ferrell was funny please don’t put him on my screen again,” a third wrote.

It wasn’t just Ferrell sparking a fan outrage. It was also Netflix and its camera work.

“they fixed the Derby format, it’s pretty much perfect, but Netflix is giving the worst camera angles imaginable for 90% of swings,” a fan wrote on X.

“Why is the Netflix broadcast literally showing ONLY THE BP THROWER on some swings what the hell,” another person wrote.

“this has been one of the worst home run derby broadcasts I have ever watched. they’re straight up not showing many of the swings. no exit velocity. taking the wrong camera constantly. putrid stuff from ye olde Netflix,” a third typed.

Another fan on X was outraged that Netflix didn’t show exit velocity and basic launch angle metrics on every homer hit in the Derby.

The fan added that any national broadcast would’ve done a better job.

France (1), Spain (3), England (4) and Argentina (2) are the top four teams in Fifa's rankings

The World Cup is now at the business end.

One of France, Spain, Argentina or England will be crowned world champions on Sunday in New York.

But who will it be?

Is France against Spain on Tuesday in the semis the real final, as many are suggesting? Can Argentina become just the third team to defend their title? Will England end 60 years of hurt?

BBC Sport has spoken to journalists and fans from the countries involved to see what they think is going to happen.

We also want to know what you think, so please comment below.

'This could be England's summer' - the view from Spain

Guillem Balague, Spanish journalist:

Spain - the best team.

France - the best player and the most frightening attack.

Argentina - the best idea: doing more with less than anyone else.

England - two world-class players on form.

All four semi-finalists have what is needed to win the tournament.

If Spain take the ball off France and stop their counters - plus if they are more efficient than they have been - they have a very good chance of making it to the final.

But they have to play the perfect game, with the perfect (or a very good) Lamine Yamal.

Argentina will try to make the game against England uneventful, and then wait for a moment of brilliance from Lionel Messi or Julian Alvarez. But they have been playing with fire.

England are still trying to find their identity but they have a huge amount of personality and two world-class stars.

A final of Spain v England would be incredible. And in a way a win-win for me, but I would like England to win a World Cup soon. This could be the summer.

Spanish fans in the United States:

Lionel: France will be tough but I think we can beat them and, if we do, we have a strong chance. We are strong in attack and strong in defence. The only downside is Pedri hasn't played at this top level yet.

Jack: Argentina are looking strong but England can't be ruled out. They have Harry Kane, who is one of the most difficult strikers in the world.

Michel: Spain will win the tournament, I have no doubt. No one is giving us a chance against France but we will control the match and beat them. The winners of that game will win the tournament.

'Hard to see past France' - the view from England

Phil McNulty, BBC Sports chief football writer:

I would love to be able to say England, but the evidence of what we have seen so far in this World Cup tells me France will make up for losing to Argentina in Qatar in 2022 by lifting the trophy this time.

England will, in my opinion, reach the final for the first time since 1966 by beating Argentina.

But it is very hard to see past France's sheer attacking brilliance, with Kylian Mbappe on a mission and others such as Ousmane Dembele, Michael Olise and Desire Doue backing him up.

This is before we even get to Bradley Barcola and Rayan Cherki, who were on the bench when Morocco were beaten in the quarter-final.

So I see an England v France final, with Didier Deschamps making his farewell with a World Cup win - but my predictions have been known to be wrong before so there is plenty of hope for Three Lions head coach Thomas Tuchel and his players.

England fans in the United States

Paul: It's coming home. Seriously. Why not? We know England haven't played brilliantly but we have Jude Bellingham and Harry Kane and I think that will be enough. I can't see Argentina stopping us and then a final against France or Spain is 50/50.

Dean: I would love to be so confident, but I'm struggling. We looked like we were struggling with injury and fitness in the game against Norway and it is all taking its toll at the moment. I can just see Lionel Messi spoiling our party.

Kane: France are going to win the World Cup. The rest of us are also-rans. Will England beat Argentina? It's touch and go but they won't beat France.

Most clinical? Least creative? Best in the air? Comparing the last four

'A lot of confidence' - the view from France

Abdoul-Karim, French journalist for TV5 Monde:

We don't know what to expect from Spain and especially Lamine Yamal because he has disappointed a little bit at the start of the competition, but still he can wake up against France.

But there is a lot of confidence in France. This time there is no controversy or debate hanging over the team. It has been quite smooth compared to previous major tournaments.

The whole of France will stop to watch this semi-final. Tuesday is Bastille Day and in some cities they have decided to postpone some fireworks. The fireworks will happen after the game, when the whole of France hopes to be celebrating a place in another World Cup final.

France fans in the United States:

Rachel: This is the best France team I have ever seen. We should win the World Cup because we are the best but we know it is not definite. Spain are dangerous and I expect England in the final.

Gerard: Of course we will win the World Cup. Have you not seen us? The best by a long way.

BBC experts pick their England World Cup semi-final XI - do you agree?

'France a step above everyone' - the view from Argentina

Santi Sciola, Argentina journalist

I think France is the top team to win the title. Offensively, they have a team that strikes fear into everyone, and as the tournament has progressed they've also got better defensively.

Of course, I hope Argentina wins the championship, they could easily do so because they're a team that plays with heart - but in terms of football, I see France as a step above everyone else right now.

Argentina fans in the United States:

Emma: We are confident. It will not be easy but England know it will not be easy for them as well. I can't remember the last time they played each other, I'm too young. But I do know England haven't played against Messi, and he is our genius. I think we win on penalties but lose to France in the final.

Javier: Of course we will win. We have had difficult games but we have got through. We can beat England and, if we get to the final, we will not lose.

Bruno: It's impossible to predict. England have brilliant players, Spain and France look the best. But I will say Argentina will win.

Scottie Scheffler made headlines for curious reasons at last year's Open Championship when he said he was struggling to find a reason why he still competes, and he went a step further this year by discussing his legacy after he passes on.

Scheffler is the defending champion at Royal Birkdale and has endured a difficult 2026, with just one win this season coming at the American Express back in January. The World No. 1's preparation for the Open Championship, having missed the cut at last week's Scottish Open - his first missed cut in four years.

A four-time major champion, who only needs a U.S. Open to join Rory McIlroy in the Grand Slam club, Scheffler's legacy is already secure as one of the best golfers in living memory. But speaking at his pre-tournament press conference on Tuesday, Scheffler turned heads by admitting he doesn't care too much about a competitive legacy — because one day he'll die.

• Justin Rose stands by unexpected club change ahead of The Open Championship

• Justin Rose responds to doubters after making unpopular change before PGA Championship

"To be completely honest, not really. I don't really play, like, for a place in history," Scheffler said. "I'm not playing for anything like that because — this is going to sound a little morbid — at the end of the day, I'm going to live my life, and it's going to end. When it ends, I'm going somewhere else, and I'm not going to be here anymore. Legacy and all that stuff was never really something that motivated me. For me, it was always competition.

"I loved playing golf. I loved waking up with butterflies because I'm going out to play a tournament and I get a chance to compete today. I love those feelings, and when I retire, I'm going to miss them.

"For me, I was always trying to get out, play, get the most out of myself, and I love the challenge of trying to play golf. I love trying to get the most out of myself, trying to manage not only my body but my mind as well, and trying to control this little golf ball and to get it to do the things that I want to do with it.

"Those are the things that motivate me and try to get the most out of myself. I've never been one to play for history or legacy or anything like that."

Scheffler was then asked about that quote later on in his press conference and gave a quick, witty response, saying: "Sorry!" Before joking: "Is that going to be a quote after last year's 'what's the point?' This year 'we're all going to die'."

He continued: "I think it matters more to me just in terms of the competition. There's things I would like to accomplish in the game, but at the end of the day, I have never once thought about how I'm going to be remembered. To me, it truly doesn't matter from a sense of like accomplishment. Like when I die, hey, Scottie won four majors and 20 tournaments and he won this much money. That has zero effect on me.

• Rory McIlroy's comment to caddie sums up conditions at The Open Championship

• Justin Thomas facing up to The Open challenge with warning to rivals

"It's more like from a competition side, it's more just the things that I can try to achieve in the game. That's something just for me just trying to get the most out of myself, like do you want to be able to win tournaments, you want to be able to put yourself in those positions. That's what I love about the game.

"History to me -- yeah, I guess maybe just isn't that important. I'm not really sure how to elaborate on that, to be honest with you. If I could be remembered -- like I don't necessarily want to be remembered for winning the tournaments that I won. I'd much rather be remembered for the way that I did it than the tournaments that I won. So if I'm doing things the right way, treating people the right way -- like I said, a successful week for me is when I approach things the right way, when I'm committed to what I'm doing.

"But I'd much rather be remembered for doing things the right way than the guy that won all the tournaments. For me, competition is extremely important. I love being able to go out and compete, but over time I've gotten much better at just being able to take your hat off and shake hands."

July 13 (Reuters) - Wall Street futures fell on Monday, as a fresh escalation between Iran and the U.S. in the Gulf rattled investors and sent oil prices higher, while chip stocks came under pressure.

Markets started the week on a dour note as Iran and the U.S. exchanged attacks in the Gulf and Tehran claimed it had closed the Strait of Hormuz, a vital conduit for global energy supplies.

The latest hostilities cast doubt on an interim U.S.-Iran agreement signed last month that aimed to reopen the strait and end the war after 60 days of negotiations.

Crude futures rose more than 3% after investors weighed the renewed threat to the key shipping route. Tech-heavy Nasdaq futures led declines, with semiconductor stocks among the biggest premarket losers.

Memory-chip makers fell sharply, with Micron Technology down 5.3%, while Western Digital, Seagate and Sandisk dropped 5.5%, 4.3% and 6.5%, respectively.

U.S.-listed shares of SK Hynix fell 8.1% after a blockbuster Nasdaq debut on Friday.

IShares semiconductor ETF fell 2.6%.

"This suggests that the rise in geopolitical tensions and the spike in the oil price are disrupting the momentum trade once again, which will hit the tech trade and the chip stock rally," said Kathleen Brooks, research director at XTB.

At 6:58 a.m. ET, Dow E-minis were down 19 points, or 0.04%, and S&P 500 E-minis were down 23.25 points, or 0.31%. Nasdaq 100 E-minis were down 283.5 points, or 0.94%.

The moves came ahead of a busy week of economic data and corporate earnings that could test the resilience of the U.S. equity rally and the health of corporate America.

The S&P 500 is up more than 10% this year and less than 1% below its early-June record close. The benchmark posted a second straight weekly gain last week, overcoming volatility in semiconductor shares and renewed U.S.-Iran tensions that put inflation risks back in focus.

Major Wall Street banks, including JPMorgan Chase, Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley, will kick off second-quarter earnings this week. Netflix, General Electric and UnitedHealth are also due to report.

S&P 500 earnings are expected to rise 23.7% in the second quarter from a year earlier, according to LSEG I/B/E/S.

Investors will also parse several key economic reports, starting off with Tuesday's U.S. consumer price index, an inflation reading that could reset expectations for the path of interest rates. Producer prices and monthly retail sales data are due on Wednesday and Thursday, respectively.

On Tuesday, Fed Chair Kevin Warsh is expected to deliver his first monetary policy testimony before Congress. Fed Governor Christopher Waller is scheduled to speak later on Monday on the economic outlook.

Markets are pricing in at least one 25-basis-point rate hike by year-end, according to LSEG data.

Among other movers, Deckers Outdoor added 1.6%, as Jefferies upgraded the footwear maker's rating to "buy".
