On a day when overnight leader Hudson Swafford made a mess of his last three holes, Hadwin took advantage of near-perfect greens at La Quinta Country Club, one of three venues hosting the pro-am event formerly called the Bob Hope Classic, as he became the eighth player to break 60 on the PGA Tour. The 29-year-old from Saskatchewan rode a red-hot putter as he birdied seven of his first nine holes and six more after the turn to post a 17-under total of 199....

Hahn and Barnes carded six-under-par 64s for a share of the two-stroke lead on Thursday. A two-time PGA Tour winner, Hahn – who last claimed the Wells Fargo Championship in May last year – was flawless throughout his opening 18 holes, posting six birdies....

Jaroslav Halak made sure there was no letdown and Zach Senyshyn took advantage in his NHL debut. Halak made 26 saves for his fifth shutout of the season and 47th of his career, and short-handed Boston beat the Minnesota Wild 3-0 on Thursday night. “That’s how we want to finish the season, playing the right way,” Halak said. “Although both teams were missing some key guys from the lineups, it could go either way....

In a video uploaded to YouTube a few days ago, a modder who simply goes by Ian has managed to recreate an aspect of Half-Life 2 in Unreal Engine. Specifically, they’ve reimagined a more up-to-date version of the sequel’s most famous level, the haunted mining town of Ravenholm. RELATED: Incredible Half-Life 2 Mod Overhauls Gameplay, Adds Weapons, And So Much More For those who haven’t played the 2004 first-person shooter, Half-Life 2’s Ravenholm is one of the scariest locations in a non-horror game, switching the mood from a high-octane sci-fi shooter into a creepy test of player mettle....

The 9-time champion at Halle and last year’s finalist will meet the ever so unpredictable Jo-Wilfried Tsonga next. The Frenchman too is coming off an impressive win, defeating compatriot Benoit Paire 6-4, 7-5 in their first round encounter. Federer and Tsonga have played against each other 17 times, and Federer leads the head-to-head by a margin of 11-6. However, they have met just once on grass before where the Frenchman stunned the then 6-time Wimbledon champion in his own fortress, at the All England Club....

The Defiant Map Pack adds something new for those who are always game to play some Halo: Reach, but if you’re just a casual player who occasionally fires up the game then you may want to continue reading this review before you commit to the add-on’s 800 Microsoft Point price tag. The Defiant Map Pack adds three new maps to Reach that should help to freshen up the multiplayer experience....

But Halo Infinite’s story wasn’t exactly its most praised feature. While the campaign’s open-world gameplay felt like a good step forward, and the shooting mechanics felt better than ever, Halo Infinite’s actual plot lacked the magic of the original Bungie-led trilogy, and though it was serviceable, it didn’t stand out, with the narrative often feeling a little rushed. In particular, the start of Halo Infinite’s campaign felt off, with the UNSC ship Infinity being destroyed by Banished forces and the Master Chief waking up months later when the aftermath had all but settled....

343 Industries will also deliver some new maps for both Arena and Warzone, as well as a significant number of new REQ items that those willing to pay some microtransactional fees will be able to acquire soon. Although the addition of microstransactions to Halo 5 was initially met with some concern from long-time fans, those fears have been largely unfounded, as there are no real multiplayer benefits to be gained from the inclusion of paid multiplayer content....

The news comes from 343 Industries’ community manager, Brian Jarrard, after he took to the game’s official subreddit under his online handle “ske7ch343” to officially declare in a community update that Halo 6 won’t be at this year’s Electronic Entertainment Expo. Instead, the developer’s community manager has promised “a little something” to be shown at E3 that’s unrelated to the sequel. Although it’s surely disappointing for the majority of the Halo franchise’s fans to learn that 343 Industries doesn’t plan on confirming the existence of the sixth entry in the series next month, at least the developer has stepped forward early to squash any rumors about the issue and won’t be stringing the community along with teases just to let them down come E3 with a reveal that has nothing to do with the game....

The Minovsky Particles was named after its founder, a scientist named Trenov Y. Minovsky. He was basically the most influential person in the creation of the Mobile Suit technology.

The story of his life is depicted in a short manga titled Stampede: The Story of Professor Minovsky....

A week after City’s 2-1 loss to Chelsea confirmed Liverpool as champions, Jurgen Klopp’s side head to the Etihad Stadium to face the side 23 points beneath them in the table. As it is their first game since they sealed the title, Liverpool will be afforded a guard of honour by their next opponents, a tradition Guardiola has already said his team intend to observe. Gundogan, who was part of the City side that won back-to-back titles prior to this season, has no qualms with standing in line and applauding the players of a rival due to their dominance across the campaign....

Kapurthala’s Gursimar Badwal started on a good note, carding a birdie on the very first hole. Her advantage was, however, short lived as she dropped a shot on the fourth hole. She added two more birdies to her tally on the 10th and 11th holes, while carding a lone bogey on the 18th to finish with a score of one under 71. Delhi golfer Vani Kapoor finished the day in second position with an even par round of 72....

Guzan did just that, though, making three saves in a 0-0 draw against the New York Red Bulls on Sunday. Just five days after being on the bench for the U.S. team’s stunning 2-1 loss to Trinidad & Tobago, which cost the Americans a place at the 2018 World Cup, Guzan was still processing the pain of that defeat, even as he put in a strong showing for his club team....
