Golf fans are praising Bryson DeChambeau for scolding a man who stole a golf ball from a young child at the PGA Championship.  While walking toward the No. 10 tee, the 30-year-old who fell one shot short of Xander Schauffele for the win Sunday, tossed his ball to a child stood against the rope.  In a fan video posted to X, an adult was seen grabbing the ball before the kid could catch it. 

A parody X (formerly Twitter) account, @Reflog_18, posted the clip with subtitles, suggesting that the veteran announcer cursed on live TV. 'He knows it,' Nantz says while calling the competition. 'He also knows there's a ticklish little b***h coming up.' Users were quick to question the validity of the video, or at least what it suggests in the comment section. The user who posted the viral clip insisted that only the captions were added.

Instead of the huge game between the Ravens and Dolphins, controversial conservative commentator Jason Whitlock slammed CBS' decision to send lead commentary team Jim Nantz and Tony Romo to Kansas City on Sunday. With the AFC's top two going head-to-head in Maryland, the Ravens and Dolphins showdown is possibly the best game of week 17 in the NFL. But CBS has sent their top players to the Chiefs' game against the Bengals, which Kansas City must win to earn a playoff spot.

Wyndham Clark's name was etched on to the US Open trophy on Sunday, and as the sun went down in Los Angeles, Clark was weaved into sports folklore, ending a fairytale underdog tale. Clark was rarely known among sports enthusiasts who tune in to see birds nestle on the fairways a few times per year prior to his successful four-day stint at the L.A. Country Club course. Clark only "arrived" on the PGA Tour last month, according to some, winning his first title at the Wells Fargo Championship in North Carolina six weeks ago.

Jim Nantz, CBS' star, has rebutted LIV Golf's outrage at the network's deliberate snubbing of Phil Mickelson and other opposition stars from their Masters coverage last Sunday. On the final day of Augusta National, Mickelson shot up the leaderboard, eventually finishing tied-second, boosting the unpopular Saudi-backed breakaway tour, but some complained that CBS did not give the lefty his fair share of airtime. This week, Nantz, the network's top announcer, was quick to dismiss any suggestions of a deliberate decision.

On Saturday, as weather disruptions and stoppage in play, a minor league baseball broadcaster attempted to bring a piece of Augusta National to the ballpark. The West Michigan Whitecaps' Dan Hasty opened the seventh inning of their game against the Fort Wayne Tin Caps by playing 'Augusta,' the song CBS has used as the theme of The Masters for decades. 'Hello mates,' Hasty began, repeating Jim Nantz' introduction for years, before heading for a major championship without thinking about the solemnity.'

Jim Nantz is widely regarded as one of the best play-by-play announcers in the game, and he gained a few more followers on Sunday after he appeared to make the subtlet of insults at LIV Golf when referring to the Masters. The moment - which sent the internet wild - occurred during the morning session at Augusta National, with the participants finishing off their weather-affected third rounds before heading straight through to their final 18 holes at Augusta. Brooks Koepka is leading the pack, but as he approached the 15th fairway on Sunday morning, he was ordered to lay-up and his ball came down.

On Monday night, Jim Nantz played his last national championship game in a poetic style, marking the legendary broadcaster's call to move away from college basketball. Nantz has been attending NCAA Tournament games for 37 years and has been the lead March Madness commentator for 23 years, but the 63-year-old has opted out of serving in that position. And as he closed out the broadcast of UConn's emphatic 76-59, Nantz took a moment to reflect on his time in the sport.

In the NCAA Championship today, Jim Nantz' college basketball commentary career will come to an end as confetti falls for either San Diego State or UConn. The sportscaster legend will continue to call golf and football on the network, including this month's Masters. 'I've had the best seat in the house at the Super Bowl or Masters or somewhere else for my entire career.' 'I've never got over the fact that I'm the one with the opportunity to give a voice to it and to tell the tale,' Nantz told AP.

After this season's edition of March Madness, Jim Nantz will drop the NCAA men's basketball tournament. After being first announced by the New York Post, CBS Sports confirmed the change Monday night.

He was the studio host for five years before winning the First Final Four in 1991 after taking over Brent Musburger's reign.

Sir Nick Faldo, the golfing and broadcasting champion, collapsed in tears on Sunday as the CBS golf team bid adieu to one of its favorites. Faldo, a golf television celebrity who won six major championships, joined CBS' golf broadcast team in 2006 before delighting viewers with his humor, relatability, and demeanor. Jim Nantz, a commentator, kicked the Englishman in a salute for his service on and off the fairways.
