SAN DIEGO (AP) — Sports San Diego announced Thursday that DirecTV has extended its agreement as title sponsor of the Holiday Bowl. Neither side would say how long the agreement is for. DirecTV sponsored the previous two Holiday Bowls. After two editions at Petco Park, the downtown home of the San Diego Padres, the Holiday Bowl is moving to Snapdragon Stadium in Mission Valley. It will be played Dec. 27 and match a top team from the ACC against current and former teams from the Pac-12.
The PGA Tour has shown off its brand new production studio to golf fans on social media, with a tour video including an appearance by the sport's most recognizable face, Tiger Woods. Sharing the clip to their social media pages, 82-time PGA Tour winner Woods is seen making his way around the complex which spans a whopping 165,000 square feet in size. The studio, which is located in Ponte Verde Beach, Florida, will be the home to all PGA Tour productions starting in January 2025. Initially revealing the plans in January of this year, the sport's leading circuit has revealed aims to reach more fans than ever before, basing their new World Feed from the Studio in the New Year. Bryson DeChambeau teases Happy Gilmore 2 cameo after Adam Sandler's surprise trailer drop Golf fans send clear message over PGA Tour-LIV fallout to Rory McIlroy and Bryson DeChambeau Speaking earlier this year, Luis Goicouria, PGA Tour Senior Vice President of Media, said: "Everything that we’re doing in terms of forward thinking and new technologies is about serving the fans and meeting them where they are by customizing content so it’s maximized for any individual platform. "Some of the technologies coming out now will be really important and some won’t. Of course, you can’t tell where the fans will be, but there’s a lot of cool things you can do around golf, so the idea for us is to use some of these new platforms and technologies to show off our game and show off the beauty of our sport. “Every one of these things that we’re doing is with the fan in mind and trying to give the fan the best possible experience and engage them as long as possible.” And with the official launch now less than a month away, fans have been shown what to expect through the help of Woods. Follow us on X for the best and latest in sports news The new step comes at an important time for the PGA Tour, with the circuit in negotiations with the Public Investment Fund of Saudi Arabia (PIF) over ending their fallout with LIV Golf. Following a shock framework agreement in June 2023, the PGA Tour and PIF have been locked in negotiations. Over 18 months on, an official deal is yet to be signed off, but it appears those around the negotiation table have made significant progress. Earlier this month, a report from Bloomberg claimed that PIF was set to take a six percent share in the Tour's for-profit entity, PGA Tour Enterprises. The proposed deal will continue the ongoing investment being pumped into PGA Tour Enterprises after an agreement worth up to $3 billion was reached with Strategic Sports Group (SSG) earlier this year. It remains to be seen what this boardroom decision will mean on the course. As things stand, any PGA Tour player who competes on the LIV setup is banned from playing on the American-based circuit. This has seen the likes of Phil Mickelson, Bryson DeChambeau, and Brooks Koepka all lose their PGA Tour playing rights in recent years.Liverpool punish rivals’ errors with dominant win over Leicester to stretch lead12 Windows 11 Tips And Tricks Every Former Mac OS User Needs To Know
TFI International Inc. (TFII) to Issue Quarterly Dividend of $0.45 on January 15thRed Wings hire former Sharks head coach McLellan after firing LalondeVictoria police say it was “all smiles” when officers delivered a bike back to its rightful owner, a 10-year-old boy, after it was stolen from his front lawn in Esquimalt. The boy’s mom, Jessie Mollins, was “so excited” with the outcome, she took to Facebook to publicly thank police and staff at Marty’s Mountain Cycle , who made sure the bike was “fixed up” before it was returned. “Tuesday (Nov. 26) I got a call from Sgt. Barker from the Victoria Police Department that he (saw) a post on FB by a Jessie ... right then, I excitedly said, ‘(Oh my God,) you found Lucas’ bike!!!!’ And he did!” said Mollins in the post last week. It was back on Oct. 22 when she posted on social media saying her son Lucas’ bike had been stolen from the front walkway of their Esquimalt home. “It’s his baby and he loves it,” wrote Mollins at the time. “He takes his friends and brothers for rides on the back passenger seat all the time. Takes his brothers to and from school on it. He is just disgusted that someone would do this.” Just over a month later, the bike is back where it belongs, she says. “I was so excited, I called my mom right after and cried,” said Mollins, recalling the moments after she got off the phone with Sgt. Baker. “Pure tears of joy.” She noted the October theft wasn’t caught on video, despite there being a security camera. It was a tough time for the family, which recently experienced a furnace fire at home. “The house is fine ... we caught it in time,” said Mollins. VicPD says Lucas’ bike wasn’t in working order when officers found it. “While the bike had been damaged, Marty’s Mountain Cycle generously repaired the bike free of charge ... Shoutout to our team for recovering the bike, and a local business for making this moment possible,” said VicPD in a post on X Friday. ‘So suprised’ Mollins says she “can’t thank these guys enough for what they did. A few thank yous, hugs and thank you cards later we are happy, and beyond greatful.” She says Lucas had “no idea” why VicPD officers were pulling up to their yard, adding that her son was “so surprised when he realized they had HIS bike.” The Esquimalt mom is also highlighting Stolen Bicycle Avengers, a Facebook group with more than 8,000 members, saying it “truly helps get the word out.” The “amazing news” for her family came just days before a similar outcome for a Greater Victoria boy, 9, who had his bike “forcibly stolen” while he was riding it to school in James Bay, according to VicPD Chief Del Manak on Nov. 29 . “An unreal situation. (VicPD) officers went the extra mile to find the bike and recovered it by evening. The family was happy,” wrote Manak on X. It’s a positive end result in time for the holiday season. “Thanks again to Marty, Sgt. Barker and his fellow officers, we appreciate you guys so much and wish you all a very Merry Christmas,” added Mollins. Here’s another great outcome. Yesterday morning, a 9-year-old boy had his bike forcibly stolen while he was riding his bike to school in James Bay. An unreal situation. @vicpdcanada officers went the extra mile to find the bike & recovered it by evening. The family was happy. https://t.co/2XlazDDRyz

Croatia's President Zoran Milanovic will face conservative rival Dragan Primorac in an election run-off in two weeks' time after the incumbent narrowly missed out an outright victory on Sunday, official results showed. The results came after an exit poll, released immediately after the polling stations closed, showed that Milanovic, backed by the opposition left-wing Social Democrats, had scooped more than 50 percent of the first round vote and would thus avoid the January 12 run-off. Milanovic won 49.1 percent of the first round vote and Primorac, backed by the ruling conservative HDZ party, took 19.35 percent, according to results released by the state electoral commission from nearly all of the polling stations. On Sunday evening, Milanovic pledged to his supporters who gathered in Zagreb to "fight for Croatia with a clear stance, one that takes care of its interests". Such a strong lead for Milanovic, whom surveys labelled a favourite ahead of the vote, raises serious concerns for Prime Minister Andrej Plenkovic's HDZ. Late on Sunday, Primorac labelled the big difference between him and Milanovic a "challenge". "In the first round there were... a lot of candidates, it was not easy to present the programme fully. Now it's a great opportunity that Milanovic and I be one on one... to see who represents what," Primorac told his supporters in Zagreb. The election came as the European Union and NATO member country of 3.8 million people struggles with biting inflation, widespread corruption and a labour shortage. Among the eight contenders, centre-right MP Marija Selak Raspudic and green-left MP Ivana Kekin followed the two main rivals, the exit poll showed. The two women each won around nine percent of the vote. The president commands the Balkan country's armed forces and has a say in foreign policy. But despite limited powers, many believe the office is key for the political balance of power in a country mainly governed by the HDZ since independence in 1991. "All the eggs should not be in one basket," Nenad Horvat, a salesman in his 40s, told AFP. He sees Milanovic, a former leftist prime minister, as the "last barrier to all levers of power falling into the hands of HDZ", echoing the view of many that was reflected in Sunday's vote results. The 58-year-old Milanovic has been one of Croatia's leading and most colourful political figures for nearly two decades. Sharp and eloquent, he won the presidency for the Social Democrats (SDP) in 2020 with pledges to advocate tolerance and liberalism. But he used the office to attack political opponents and EU officials, often with offensive and populist rhetoric. Milanovic, who condemned Russia's aggression against Ukraine, has nonetheless criticised the West's military aid to Kyiv. That prompted the prime minister to label him a pro-Russian who is "destroying Croatia's credibility in NATO and the EU". Milanovic countered that he wanted to protect Croatia from being "dragged into war". Milanovic regularly pans Plenkovic and his HDZ party over systemic corruption, calling the premier a "serious threat to Croatia's democracy". Speaking on Sunday, Milanovic said that in the current global situation, all political stakeholders in the country should be "on the same side as much as possible, at least when it comes to fundamental issues such as the national security or borders". For many, the election is a continuation of the longstanding feud between two powerful politicians. "This is still about the conflict between the prime minister and president," political analyst Zarko Puhovski told AFP. "All the rest are just incidental topics." Primorac, a 59-year-old physician and scientist returning to politics after 15 years, campaigned as a "unifier" promoting family values and patriotism. ljv/bc
