He just loves the game of golf, and he's one of those guys when you're around him, he does such a good job of, like, feeding confidence into everybody around him," Scheffler said."That was one of the things I noticed a lot with the little bit of time I spent with him, is he treats everybody the same and treats people with the utmost respect. Whether you're the person serving us lunch or the caddie on the golf course or the guy who's the president of the club that we're at, he treats everybody like they're the greatest person in the world."FROM A TIGER WOODS MAJOR VICTORY TO THE 2025 RYDER CUP, HERE IS THE HISTORY OF BETHPAGE BLACKTeam USA captain Keegan Bradley added, "I'm deeply honored that the President of the United States is going to come support our team at the Ryder Cup. I think anytime you can be around a current president is a pretty phenomenal thing, but when you're representing your country at a place like Bethpage Black in New York, having the president there to support you is something that is just absolutely incredible. I'm really grateful to him for doing that for us."He also broke some news about the president's plans in the process."I really look forward to what that first tee is going to be like with the president on the tee. I think this first tee at Bethpage is going to be a sporting event to remember across any sport, and then you add on the President of the United States standing there, I really think it's going to be something that everyone will remember forever."Trump visited his Doral course in Miami the day before a LIV Golf event earlier this year and played in a LIV Golf pro-am at his course in Washington, D.C., in 2023. However, he has not attended a pro event as a fan since August 2023, when LIV went to his Bedminster course.Trump attended the closing ceremony at the 2017 Presidents Cup in Jersey City, New Jersey, where Team USA defeated Team International.Follow Fox News Digitalssports coverage on X,and subscribe tothe Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.

Former ESPN host Keith Olbermann appeared to make a threat toward CNN conservative commentator Scott Jennings on Monday in a series of since-deleted social media posts.The posts were screenshotted by Townhall columnist Dustin Grage. The posts showed Olbermann directing vitriol toward Jennings nearly two weeks after Charlie Kirk was assassinated at an event on the campus of Utah Valley University.CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COM"Youre next motherf---er," he wrote. "But keep mugging for the camera."Jennings tagged FBI Director Kash Patel in a response to Grages post on X.Olbermann appeared to be reacting to Jennings post about Disney restoring Jimmy Kimmels ABC show amid uproar over its short hiatus. Kimmel was yanked off the air following remarks about Kirks assassination and the motives behind it.He appeared to clarify what he wrote in a subsequent reply."Now we get the fascists off real tv. That'd mean your career is next, Jennings. Send a tape to Real America 's Voice," Olbermann added in the thread. "But keep mugging to camera, amateur."CHIEFS CEO'S WIFE SLAMS CRITICS CELEBRATING CHARLIE KIRK'S ASSASSINATIONOlbermann, who was also a pundit on MSNBC, has faced tremendous backlash in recent days for his controversial posts about Kirk and Kimmel. He slighted the late conservative influencer last week after it was announced that several TV affiliates, including those owned by Sinclair, would preempt Kimmels show."Burn in hell, Sinclair," Olbermann wrote on X. "Alongside Charlie Kirk."He maintained that nothing that Kimmel said in his comments about Kirk were untrue.Last week, Kimmel accused conservatives of reaching "new lows" in trying to pin a left-wing ideology on 22-year-old suspect Tyler Robinson, even though prosecutors reaffirmed those ties in Tuesdays indictment."We hit some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it," Kimmel said.Kimmels comments came one day after both FBI officials and Utah Gov. Spencer Cox said that Robinsonheld a "leftist ideology"and was increasingly radicalized in recent years. It was also revealed that he had a romantic relationship with a transgender partner who was biologically male and transitioning to female.Follow Fox News Digitalssports coverage on X and subscribe to the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.

President Donald Trump canceled a meeting with top congressional Democrats on Tuesday over "unserious and ridiculous demands" as the deadline to fund the government fast approaches.Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., were set to meet with Trump on Thursday to discuss a path forward to avert a partial government shutdown before the Sept. 30 deadline.Lawmakers are still away from Washington, D.C., this week to observe the Jewish New Year, Rosh Hashanah, and the Senate is expected to return on Sept. 29. Meanwhile, the House is expected to be out until the deadline passes.THUNE SLAMS DEMOCRATS' 'COLD-BLOODED PARTISAN' TACTICS AS FUNDING DEADLINE NEARSBut Trump nixed the meeting in a lengthy post on his social media platform Truth Social, where he blasted the duo for pushing "radical Left policies that nobody voted for.""I have decided that no meeting with their Congressional Leaders could possibly be productive," Trump said.The now canceled meeting with Trump came on the heels of a letter from Schumer and Jeffries sent over that weekend where the top congressional Democrats laid the possibility of a shutdown on his and Republicans feet.They argued that the Trump-backed short-term extension was "dirty," which would mean it had partisan policy riders or spending attached to it, and panned it for continuing "the Republican assault on healthcare," ignoring expiring Affordable Care Act (ACA) premium subsidies, and possibly leading to the closure of hospitals and other healthcare facilities across the country."With the September 30th deadline fast approaching, Republicans will bear responsibility for another painful government shutdown because of the refusal of GOP congressional leadership to even talk with Democrats," they wrote at the time.But Trump argued that their bill would allow for the nearly $1 trillion in Medicaid cuts in his "big, beautiful bill" to be repealed, and also blasted the Democratic continuing resolution (CR) for ending his megabill's $50 billion rural hospital fund.TRUMP-APPROVED PLAN TO AVERT GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN SCUTTLED BY SENATE"We must keep the Government open, and legislate like true Patriots rather than hold American Citizens hostage, knowing that they want our now thriving Country closed," he said."Ill be happy to meet with them if they agree to the Principles in this Letter," Trump continued. "They must do their job! Otherwise, it will just be another long and brutal slog through their radicalized quicksand. To the Leaders of the Democrat Party, the ball is in your court. I look forward to meeting with you when you become realistic about the things that our Country stands for. DO THE RIGHT THING!"Schumer and Jeffries last month demanded a meeting with Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., and House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., to strike a deal, given that Thune will need Democratic support in the Senate.However, that meeting has so far not come to fruition though Thune has pushed back on Schumers characterization and argued that if the Democratic leader wants to talk, its on him to make it happen."After weeks of Republican stonewalling in Congress, President Trump has agreed to meet this week in the Oval Office," they said in a joint statement. "In the meeting, we will emphasize the importance of addressing rising costs, including the Republican healthcare crisis. Its past time to meet and work to avoid a Republican-caused shutdown."The last time Schumer went to negotiate with Trump at the White House ahead of a looming deadline in 2018, the government shut down for 35 days, which marked the longest partial closure in history. At the time, Schumer and Rep. Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., were at odds with Trump on a deal to fund construction of a wall on the southern border.Prior to the meeting being announced, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt argued that if the government shuttered, it "would be the fault of the Democrats.""We want a clean funding extension to keep the government open, thats all were advocating for," she said.SENATE REPUBLICANS BLOCK DEMOCRATS' 'FILTHY' COUNTEROFFER AS SHUTDOWN DEADLINE LOOMSHowever, the House Republicans bill is relatively "clean," save for tens of millions in spending for increasing security measures for lawmakers in the wake of the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk.Congressional Democrats counter-proposal, which also failed last week, included more funding for member security, but also sought to repeal the healthcare portion of Trumps "big, beautiful bill," claw back billions of canceled funding for NPR and PBS, and permanently extend the expiring ACA credits.Thune noted last week that CRs "aren't places to load big health policy changes in." "I think that we are open to the conversation about what we do with the ObamaCare premium tax credit," Thune said. "Is that something in which members, Republican senators, and I think, for that matter, Republican House members, have an interest, as well.""But this isn't the place to do that," he continued. "This is the place to fund the government, to allow our appropriations process to continue that issue."

Late-night host Stephen Colbert celebrated the return of "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" this week lauding the idea that he is now the "only martyr in late-night" following Disneys announcement that it will be bringing Kimmels show back."You know, I'm so happy for them. Plus, now that Jimmy's not being canceled, I get to enjoy this again," Colbert said on Monday, holding the Emmy Award his show recently won. "Once again, I am the only martyr in late-night."Kimmel's late-night show was pulled off the air last Wednesday after Kimmel's remarks about the alleged assassin of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk sparked outrage and a veiled warning from the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). Disney decided to suspend the show after two major affiliate owners pulled airings of Kimmel from their stations, and Kimmel reportedly had told executives he would not apologize for his comments.CHARLIE KIRK ALLY RESPONDS TO DISNEY'S DECISION TO LIFT JIMMY KIMMEL'S SUSPENSION"We hit some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it," Kimmel said on his show last week.Conservatives were outraged by the comments suggesting the suspected killer was a MAGA member.However, The Walt Disney Company announced that Kimmel's show will return on Tuesday following a brief suspension."Last Wednesday, we made the decision to suspend production on the show to avoid further inflaming a tense situation at an emotional moment for our country. It is a decision we made because we felt some of the comments were ill-timed and thus insensitive. We have spent the last days having thoughtful conversations with Jimmy, and after those conversations, we reached the decision to return the show on Tuesday," a Disney spokesperson told Fox News Digital.WHY ABC BRINGS BACK JIMMY KIMMEL TODAY AFTER ITS DEBACLE OVER FREE SPEECHDuring his show on Monday, Colbert used Disney's change of heart on Kimmel's suspension to take a dig at his own network, CBS."Wait. Unless, CBS, you want to announce anything? Huh? Still no? Right, because of the money thing, I forgot," he ribbed.Colbert's longtime role as host of "The Late Show" is set to come to an end in May 2026. CBS said the decision was "purely" financial and "not related in any way to the shows performance, content or other matters happening at Paramount," the network's parent company.Paramount's settlement with President Donald Trump over his CBS News "60 Minutes" lawsuit was criticized by Colbert and others as a way to appease the administration ahead of the $8 billion Skydance merger. The merger was approved on July 24 and completed on Aug. 7.CLICK HERE FOR MORE COVERAGE OF MEDIA AND CULTURECLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APPFox News' Brian Flood contributed to this report.

President Donald Trump drew laughs from world leaders within moments of taking the stage at the United Nations General Assembly on Tuesday.Trump joked about a broken escalator in the UN building as well as the broken teleprompters right in front of him."Thank you very much, I very much appreciate it," he said to the applause as he took the stage."And I don't mind making this speech without a teleprompter because the teleprompter is not working," he said as the leaders laughed.OPINION: THE UN IS A STAGE FOR HYPOCRISY: ITS TIME FOR DEMOCRACIES TO EXIT"I feel very happy to be up here with you nevertheless, and that way you speak more from the heart. I can only say that whoever's operating this teleprompter is in big trouble," he added, drawing more laughter.Trump again drew laughs later on by recounting his dissatisfaction with the UN's assistance in global conflicts.TRUMP MUST MAKE UN FUNDING CONDITIONAL ON REAL REFORMS, EX-DIPLOMAT URGES`"I ended seven wars, dealt with the leaders of these countries and never even received a phone call from the United Nations offering to help in finalizing the deal," Trump said. "All I got from the United Nations was an escalator that on the way up stopped right in the middle.""If the first lady wasn't in great shape she would've fallen. But she's in great shape, we're both in good shape. We both stood," he added, drawing more laughter."These are the two things I got from the United Nations: a bad escalator and a bad teleprompter," he said.Throughout his speech, Trump hailed efforts for peace and warned European nations against continuing to tolerate illegal immigration. Trump also blasted the global climate change agenda as a "con job."

Several suspects have been identified after shots rang out Sunday at a Houston-area youth baseball game, causing chaos as players and coaches ran for cover.According to Waller County, Texas authorities, three people fired weapons towards the Ameripark youth baseball field, known as The Rac, in the town of Katy.Video of the incident shows the 12-year-old Texas Colts players in light blue jerseys running frantically for cover as bullets flew past them. A 27-year-old coach was reportedly injured after a bullet ricocheted off of a post. He was taken to the hospital and released Sunday evening.TWINS DENOUNCE FATAL SHOOTING AT MINNESOTA CATHOLIC CHURCH AS 'INCOMPREHENSIBLE' ATTACK"The investigation revealed that three suspects discharged firearms from a nearby pasture, in the direction of the field while a youth baseball event was taking place," the Waller County Sheriff's Office said in a Facebook post. "Through investigative efforts, the three suspects involved have been identified. Charges of deadly conduct and other related offenses are being pursued."The sheriff's office said the gunfire was recreational, and came from a wooded area behind the field.The names of the suspects have not been released.A member of the Texas Colts, Colton Bierman, shared his story about the chaotic scene.SHOOTING AT MINNEAPOLIS CATHOLIC SCHOOL CONFIRMED BY AUTHORITIES; 20 VICTIMS REPORTED"So I was by myself because I was about to pitch, so I was walking out of the dugout getting my stuff and then probably five feet after I walk out the dugout, all I hear is shots fired," he told FOX26 Houston. "I didnt know the shots were coming from the forest. I thought it was an active shooter, so I start hiding."One coach likened the shooting to being in Afghanistan, while another said the adult coaches were purely focused on the safety of the children."Thats the problem. They are 12. We weren't really worried about us in the moment. It was how do we get these kids down and out behind a brick wall," Texas Colts coach Alex Smith said.The Rac put out a mid-afternoon statement acknowledging the seriousness of the shooting."The safety and well-being of our players, families, coaches, staff and community is our top priority. We are deeply shaken by what happened, and our focus remains on supporting the coach who was injured, his family and everyone who was affected," the Rac said. "We are working closely with law enforcement and conducting our own internal review. We will continue to provide updates as more information becomes available. All activities have been suspended for now.""We are grateful for the response of local authorities, the medical team on site, and the outpouring of care from our community."

As I stood in the heart of Times Square, kicking off my Walk Across America a 3,000-mile journey to restore faith, merit and the American DreamI couldnt help but reflect on this iconic city. This is the city where Americans built skyscrapers, Wall Street traders chased fortunes, and immigrants arrived with nothing, working day and night to achieve their dreams. This is the city that once embodied the pure spirit of capitalism, a place where the American Dream wasnt just a slogan.Yet, in the rise of Zohran Mamdani as the Democratic nominee for mayor after decisively winning the primary we see this once-proud capitalist city surrendering to socialism. What's missing is faith.As I walked through the streets of Manhattan, I sensed a profound absence. I passed some of the world's most magnificent churches and cathedrals: St. Patrick's, with its Gothic spires reaching toward heaven; Trinity Church, standing sentinel over Wall Street since the days of the Founding Fathers and the Cathedral of St. John the Divine, with its rose window and garden. I also encountered countless neighborhood parishes and synagogues some full of the faithful, but many, sadly, standing empty.CHICAGO'S 'ROOFTOP PASTOR' TO EMBARK ON EPIC CROSS-COUNTRY JOURNEY TO BENEFIT AMERICA'S TROUBLED YOUTHThese places of worship are not mere buildings; they are beacons of hope, reminders of a higher power that guides us through life's chaos. Yet, in New York's public square, faith feels like a forgotten relic.Prayer isn't invoked in policy debates, and scripture no longer forms the foundation for justice. In one church, I even saw a rainbow flag obscuring the cross, as too many houses of worship have surrendered their message to politics. Is it any wonder that so many now look to government in the form of Mamdani promises for answers to life's deepest questions?The hard truth, as a pastor who grapples with these issues in Chicago, is that New York has traded its faith for the idols of materialism, activism and politics. The pursuit of wealth has become an end in itself, not a means to bless others as God intended. Activism breeds rage and division, turning neighbors into enemies over every grievance. And politics has morphed into a false religion, offering salvation through government programs rather than grace.Look no further than the current mayoral race for proof of this spiritual drift. Mamdani's vision of rent freezes, wealth taxes and expansive government intervention shows how we've veered from the cradle of free enterprise toward failed collectivist policies.How did we get here, from fortunes built on individual liberty to dependence on the state? The answer is clear: Without God as our anchor, we've clutched at earthly ideologies to fill the divine void.CLICK HERE FOR MORE FOX NEWS OPINIONThis isn't just a New York story. Its a national crisis. From the streets of Los Angeles to the halls of Washington, D.C., faith has receded from public life, supplanted by cults of consumerism and ideology. Crime surges not solely from poverty but from abandoning religion's moral compass. Families fracture not just from economic strain but from a culture that mocks traditional values. As a nation, we're reaping division, dependency and a hollow pursuit of progress without purpose.But there's hope. As I've learned through Project H.O.O.D., my nonprofit on Chicago's South Side, real change begins by rebuilding from the ground up with faith as our foundation.That's why I'm walking: to reignite that spark across America, starting here in New York. Reclaim your churches not as tourist stops, but as living centers of community and conviction.Turn back to the God who blessed this land of opportunity. Reject the false gods of socialism and identity politics. Believe in God, believe in yourselves, and this city can reclaim its legacy as America's heartbeat. The bright lights can shine with true meaning if we let faith's light guide us once more.CLICK HERE TO READ MORE FROM PASTOR COREY BROOKS

TheBaltimore Ravens suffered their second loss of the season after the Detroit Lions ran away with the lead in the second half of Monday nights game, but scoring has not been the issue.The Ravens move on to Week 4 with an unfortunate stat, having scored 111 points across three games.
