The emergence of LIV Golf has split the sport down the middle. There are staunch supporters of the established tours, ardent fans of “golf, but louder” LIV Golf — and those who crave for some common ground to be found. Ad Billy Horschel has been vocal in his criticism of LIV.
And then there were two. Primoz Roglic’s withdrawal from La Vuelta following his dramatic crash on the home straight of Stage 16 means Movistar’s Enric Mas remains the only real threat between Remco Evenepoel and the top step of the podium in Madrid on Sunday. Mas has ridden a solid if unspectacular fifth Vuelta.
It’s hard to see how Primoz Roglic could have played his cards better at the end of an otherwise dull and dreary Stage 16 of La Vuelta – save for not undoing all his hard work by inexplicably crashing inside the final 100 metres. “We had planned to attack in the final phase of this stage,” Jumbo-Visma DS Addy Engels later said.
Kamaru Usman has questioned the booking of Khamzat Chimaev vs Nate Diaz at UFC 279.
Reports that Remco Evenepoel cracked over the weekend were grossly exaggerated. The total time lost to Primoz Roglic over the two stages may add up to over than a minute, but that was well within the margin of the comfortable, considering his lead going into the two most difficult stages of the 21 was nudging three. Roglic needed more.

After Richard Carapaz managed to save his Vuelta with victory on Penas Blancas on Thursday, many other riders will look to use the summit showdowns on La Pandera and the Alto Hoya de la Mora to mastermind their own return to the top table. For the man in red, Remco Evenepoel, Sunday’s blockbuster finale in the Sierra Nevada will not only be a chance to extend his lead at the top of the standings, but will also give the 22-year-old the opportunity to put another myth to bed – namely his inability to perform over long, tough climbs at altitude.
It was Albert Einstein who made the timeless observation that doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results is a form of insanity. Well, it’s hard to see what Quick-Step Alpha Vinyl riders expect to happen when they keep over-banking slippery corners with such gusto.
