EWOUD Grobler, a member of the Amanzimtoti Athletic Club, received an overall first place in the inaugural aQuellé Tour Durban Trail 20km race on April 20.

The two biggest innovations for participants of the traditional Tour Durban cycling race was the new mountain-bike gravel race and trail runs.

Despite being categorised as a veteran at age 43, Grobler dominated the open male category, securing first place in both gender and category positions with a finishing time of 1:43:40.

“I didn’t really have a goal time in mind, I was just happy with the win. It was meant to have been an easy run, under strict coach’s orders. But, I messed that up a bit with my heart rate spiking a bit too much to his liking on the hills,” he said.

Despite encountering a marshalling error early in the race, which led most of the participants off course and extended the distance by about 2km, Grobler found the race hugely enjoyable and well signposted.

Now, he sets his sights on the upcoming Durban International Marathon and the prestigious Comrades Marathon in June, ready to tackle the challenges ahead.

Tour Durban 2023: Road closures, route and event info

The 2023 Tour Durban road race will take place with three road racing distances based around the M4 on Sunday 14 May.

James Richardson

KZN’s favourite weekend of cycling is just a week away when the new-look Tour Durban will take place with three road racing distances based around the M4 on Sunday 14 May, and three MTB events at Cornubia on Saturday 13 May. The event organisers have shaken things up for 2023 with the decision to change the emphasis for the road race and have now unashamedly focused their attention on providing an overall experience for the bulk of the field and their families and friends, rather than catering primarily for the elite racing cyclists.

Tour Durban gets facelift

The Tour Durban MTB powered by Cycle Lab races will be similar to the previous events, although the addition of an easy, short 10km race, and the inclusion in KZN’s prestige MTB Marathon series has given that event a significant boost, both in numbers and interest from the MTB community.

However, it is in the road race the participants will notice the biggest changes, and the new look and feel of the race has ensure the official event hashtag, #FamilyFunFor Everyone, is front and centre of all decisions regarding the event. As primarily a charity event, all proceeds from the Tour Durban will be donated to the Domino Foundation to assist with the community work they do in and around KZN. This means that while the so-called racing snakes are still going to be aiming for the win, and will be recognised on the podium and the final results, the event organisers and partners have made a conscious decision to put their efforts into creating an event that caters for the so-called weekend warriors.

New-look event

The most obvious alteration to the ethos of the event has been the route, which has seen the removal of the tough climbs inland that have always been a feature of the Tour Durban. The long grind up to Pinetown has been replaced with a spectator-friendly route with full road closure that concentrates the action around the M4, from the start-finish venue at Moses Mabhida to Umdloti. The 110km riders will still have some climbs to test the legs, but the route is much more manageable for the mid-pack riders. There will still be plenty of intrigue out on the route for the top riders with the inclusion of some fascinating new racing features. The event has introduced three new competitions – a six-person team event, a King of the Mountains points event, and a sprint points event – which will make for some fascinating tactics and give incentive to riders throughout the field.

The Gooderson Leisure Team Competition

The Gooderson Leisure Team Competition will give the riders in the 110km event an opportunity to represent their club, school, corporate team or even just join up with a bunch of friends and have a friendly challenge against rivals. There is no entry fee to enter the team competition, where six riders (who are already entered in the 110km event as individuals) can join forces and ride as a team, with the time of the fifth person to cross the line being recorded as the team’s time. While bragging rights are very much on offer – the unofficial title of KZN’s Team Champions is up for grabs – Gooderson Leisure have donated a huge prize which all entrants can win simply by participating. Each of the six members of one team drawn from all team entries will win a voucher for one family room accommodating two adults and two children for two nights (including breakfast) at Gooderson Monks Cowl Golf Resort.

King of the Mountain at Tour Durban

Then there will be two different King of the Mountain (KOM) sites on the route, providing three opportunities for the top climbers to pick up points for the KOM competition, which will then be totalled to decide the 2023 CMH Renault Ballito King of the Mountain.

ALSO READ: KOM and sprint points add to Tour Durban intrigue The Captur KOM presented by CMH Renault Ballito will be situated at the top of the M41 on the second lap at about 54km. The Captur KOM presented by CMH Renault Ballito is situated at the highest elevation of the route and at the top of the longest climb on the first and third loops – just after the Sibaya circle following the climb out from the Umhlanga River. For the slower riders who do not have a power-to-weight ratio that allows them to fight for KOM and sprint points, there will be lucky draw prizes on offer with a charity donation at registration all that is needed for riders to qualify for the hampers supplied by the CMH Nissan and Renault Ballito.

Sprinter’s delight

The speedsters also have an opportunity to collect points and win prizes based on their sprint speed, with the Magnite Sprint brought to you by CMH Nissan Ballito following a similar format as the KOM competition. There will be one sprint point early in the race route which will provide riders with an opportunity on each of the three laps of the route to collect points. While the route is much more spectator friendly with family and friends of the riders able to see their loved-ones up to three times in the 110km, a big emphasis has been placed on creating a carnival-type of atmosphere at the finish venue. The grassy park-like area, either side of the walkway just south of the Kings Park Swimming Pool, will be the scene of the finish festivities with the water truck, Domino Foundations activities, uShaka “celebrities” and ECR will be broadcasting from the venue. Clubs and team are encouraged to put up gazebos and vendors will be selling food, drink and other market items.

pokemon trip fanfiction

As a young child, Trip became inspired to be a Pokémon Trainer after watching Alder battle. He later met the Champion , who would let him pet and feed the Bouffalant Alder was battling with. Afterwards, Alder offered a few words of advice, with this experience in turn inspiring Trip to work hard and train to become a Champion. As such, Trip grew up idolizing Alder and held him in high regard.

Pokémon the Series: Black & White

Trip debuted in In The Shadow of Zekrom! as a beginning Trainer ready to choose his first partner Pokémon . After meeting with Professor Juniper , he chose Snivy as his new partner. He took a dislike to Ash after learning he was from Kanto, a region Trip did not think very highly of. On his way out of the lab, he challenged Ash to a Pokémon battle. He had much interest in battling Pikachu , a species that is foreign in his region. Because Pikachu could not use any Electric-type moves at the time, it was easily defeated by the Snivy. Trip left Nuvema Town to begin his journey, rudely telling Ash to go back to the basics.

Trip was revealed by Cilan that prior to Triple Leaders, Team Threats! to have evolved his Snivy into Servine and earned the Trio Badge .

Trip appeared again at the Luxuria Town Battle Club in A Rival Battle for Club Champ! , where he and Ash had a five-on-five battle, although Trip initially offered to have a Full Battle with Ash. His Tranquill defeated Ash's Oshawott and Tepig in just two hits with its Super Luck -boosted Aerial Ace , but lost to Ash's Pikachu. Pikachu was defeated by Servine again. Snivy defeated Trip's Servine by using Attract . Trip's Frillish later defeated Pidove and Snivy, after making use of its Ability and speed , causing Ash to lose the battle. Afterwards, Trip called Pikachu and Snivy "okay", but said that the rest of Ash's team was a joke, and so was their Trainer. Trip then condescendingly departing from the Battle Club.

pokemon trip fanfiction

In A Venipede Stampede! , Trip was training in Castelia City when a swarm of Venipede suddenly attacked. He used his Lampent to try to fight them off, but Ash yelled at him for doing so, saying that he was only making things worse. Trip insulted him, but was interrupted by Burgh , who agreed with Ash. Later, Trip would continue his pursuit and went after the leader of the Venipede swarm, in spite of Burgh's words, and ordered Lampent to hit it with Shadow Ball , but Ash blocked the attack. Again, Burgh told Trip that he was going about it the wrong way, resulting in Trip stopping. Trip then used Tranquill to help coax out the remaining Venipede and lead them safely out of the city. That night he opted to head to the following city to participate in his next Gym battle rather than waiting for the Castelia Gym to be restored.

In Ash and Trip's Third Battle! , Trip, along with his Vanillite and Timburr , battled Ash once more. During their battle, Trip revealed to Ash the reason behind Oshawott's inability to use Aqua Jet and even told him about the Unova League Champion Alder. Their battle ended in a tie after Servine defeated Snivy, Vanillite tied with Tepig, and Oshawott defeated Timburr.

In Reunion Battles In Nimbasa! , Trip entered the Club Battle , a tournament held by Nimbasa Town 's Don George . He was chosen to battle Cilan in the first match up. In the next episode , he used his Gurdurr to battle against Cilan's Dwebble . During the battle Trip put Gurdurr's physical strength along with its girder to great use, giving him an early lead in the battle. Despite putting up a good fight, however, Gurdurr was defeated and Trip was knocked out of the competition. After his Pokémon healed at the Pokémon Center that night, he left Nimbasa Town believing that there was no point to staying there any longer.

pokemon trip fanfiction

In Ash Versus the Champion! , Trip revealed he had already obtained five Gym Badges . During that time, he also got to reunite with Alder , who could not remember him. Seeing how much Alder loafed about while battling Ash, Trip's opinion of him slightly changed. He vowed not only to defeat him but also promised to follow the path he believed in before angrily departing.

In The Clubsplosion Begins! , Trip registered himself to compete in the Clubsplosion . He planned to compete with his newly-evolved Conkeldurr and his opponent in the first round was revealed to be Bianca , who he considered to be just practice. He then battled her and her Emboar in Search for the Clubultimate! . Though he and Conkeldurr put up a strong fight, he lost to her in the next episode . Like he did after his loss in the Club Battle, he left Ambiga Town that night rather than staying and watching the rest of the tournament.

Trip appeared again in Jostling for the Junior Cup! in order to participate in the Pokémon World Tournament Junior Cup . His goal was to win and get the chance to battle Alder. His first round battle was with Burgundy . Using his Serperior , which had evolved from Servine, he was able to defeat her quickly by utilizing a combination of Leer and Solar Beam and advanced to the second round. In Battling Authority Once Again! , Trip advanced to the semi-finals, where he once again battled Cilan. This time, however, he and Serperior managed to defeat Cilan's Crustle with a Frenzy Plant , qualifying them for the final match against Ash. In Ash, Iris, and Trip: Then There Were Three! , Trip battled Ash in the finals, using his Serperior against Ash's Pignite. Despite the type advantage and Ash's strategy to boost his own speed with Flame Charge, Serperior maintained the speed advantage. This allowed it to make quick work of Pignite, swiftly defeating it with a powerful Frenzy Plant, winning Trip the tournament in the process. In Goodbye, Junior Cup - Hello Adventure! , Trip battled Alder and his Bouffalant with his Serperior in the prize match, but despite his strategy to lower Bouffalant's guard while also attacking its weak spot, they were defeated in a single hit. After the battle, he was given a speech by Alder about deciding his own path with his Pokémon, and promised to battle him again when the time came. Afterwards, Trip would meet up with Ash and his friends following the tournament. After a brief conversation, he and Ash promised to meet with one another at Unova's League Conference . As Trip left, Iris noticed that he had greatly subdued his nasty attitude, having been humbled by his battle with Alder.

In Curtain Up, Unova League! and Mission: Defeat Your Rival! , Trip traveled to Vertress City to compete in the Vertress Conference and met up with Ash and Ash's other rivals in Unova . During the match-up process, it was revealed he would battle Ash in the first round of the competition. However, here, he was not arrogant as in past meetings and instead showed a genuine interest in battling with Ash once more. Trip used his Serperior against Ash's Pikachu, at first Pikachu unleashed a barrage of its attacks with Serperior simply avoiding every one of them with relative ease. In retaliation Serperior would unleash a devastating Dragon Tail before following with a barrage of its own techniques culminating in a Wrap attack, cornering Ash and Pikachu. But in spite of these efforts Pikachu managed to defeat Serperior, much to Trip's astonishment and disbelief, with a combination of its Electro Ball and Iron Tail, eliminating Trip from the Conference. After the battle, Trip would have one last conversation with Ash, before they ended their rivalry and became friends. Following this, Trip then left the Vertress Conference to continue his journey .

He appeared briefly in A Unova League Evolution! in Ash's flashback about his travels in Unova .

Trip made cameo appearances in the ending Let's Join Hands and in the ending credits of Genesect and the Legend Awakened .

Pokémon Journeys: The Series

In The Fiery Road to Mastership! , Trip was shown watching Iris's Masters Eight Tournament match against Cynthia .

Trip is a reserved individual who tends to keep his feelings to himself. He expressed his emotions much like Ash used to do when he first left his hometown . His strategy is all about planning ahead and completing the basics of Pokémon training . Compared to the other rivals of the Unova region, Trip is rather distant and prefers not to interact with them outside of battle. He has a teal-colored digital camera , with which he takes photos for illustrating his journey . He also has a Xtransceiver so that he can keep in touch with Battle Clubs . However, much like Ash, Trip tends to get annoyed with those who insult him, as when Iris called him a "little kid" by refusing to battle Ash, along with Cilan's desire to watch them battle, Trip finally accepted Ash's challenge, but was clearly annoyed with the circumstances.

Trip tends to think very little of the Kanto region —which he refers to as "the boonies "—and anyone from there. He thinks of Ash as a hillbilly who needs to go back to the basics of Pokémon training. However, he will help him out once in a while, as seen when he informed Ash that Oshawott 's Aqua Jet was uncontrollable because Oshawott had his eyes closed, and again when he pointed out Scraggy 's lack of master over its newly-learned Focus Blast . Despite his apparent apathy towards Ash and his generally low opinion on him as a Trainer, Trip tends to be quite attentive towards Ash's battles.

pokemon trip fanfiction

Despite having just started out as a Trainer, Trip already implements many strategies in his battling. He has defeated Ash in all but two of their battles (the former which they tied, and the latter in which Ash won), despite Ash being a much more experienced Trainer. However, he is less forgiving than Ash and takes losses harder. An instance of this is, when he lost to Cilan, he took a photo of Cilan and Dwebble . When Cilan asked him why he was doing that, Trip replied that he was recording this moment so that he would remember his frustration. Trip also actively insults and is at most as mature as Ash, as shown during his childish banter with Ash during their third battle, along with when he elbowed Ash for Alder's attention.

As a result of meeting Alder as a child and the promise he was given by him, Trip viewed strength as the most important thing to accomplishing his goals. As such, he deemed any activities that wouldn't increase his strength as unnecessary as seen when he left after his losses in the Club Battle and the Clubsplosion, also when he refused to battle Ash on multiple occasions. After his reunion with Alder and his disappointment at Alder's aloofness, Trip began to seek out his own path to beating Alder and becoming Champion. During the Junior Cup, Trip had shown a heightened amount of confidence in his own abilities to the point of arrogance, believing he could defeat both Alder and Cynthia . However, after losing to Alder, he began to realize the error in his views, and as such, he had a change in his attitude. This can be seen in Curtain Up, Unova League! , when he greets Ash and his friends with a more friendly approach than before, with his change in attitude being noticed by the other characters such as Cilan and Iris. Along with his newer persona, he showed a genuine interest in battling Ash, and along with that ceased his past tendencies of mocking him. Despite his change in attitude, he still maintains his distance and prefers not to interact with the other rivals.

Book&Literature

Multiverse systems: demonic resurrection in the primordial tower.

parsaj : This is one of the best works I have read on this site. There isn't much to complain about here, mostly subjective and personal preferences which have no bearing on the objective quality of the novel. Firstly, grammar, work structure, paragraph placing, and writing quality itself is one of the best on this site and as a whole there are a few typos scattered around a hundred chapters, which is basically nothing. I haven't followed this fanfic from the start, but from what I can see, there are 360 chapters in 8 months, which is a pretty solid update ratio, especially considering the chapters' quality. Story development is original and unexpected. There are some twists there that aren't predictable. The protagonist has interesting abilities, and although very powerful, it isn't to an unreasonable extent and he doesn't steamroll everything he comes across. The start of it however is a little slow, and it takes a while to get into the meat of the story, but pretty solid nonetheless. Every character has their unique personality traits and quirks. The main character is a cold and power hungry individual, my personal favorite. Although his very logical and benefit-oriented view on his relationships with every character is looking to make a very lonely existence out of him at the peak of power he is seeking. However, I think the author has something planned for this, as well. World background is extremely unique, which is unexpected, considering most of the story happens in previously established fiction. The author manages to give these fictions an original flavor. All in all, I would highly recommend this novel to anyone who is a fan of works such as Reverend Insanity, Warlock of the Magus world, and Ultimate Evolution. Writing Quality 5/5 Stability of Updates 5/5 Story Development 4.5/5 Character Design 5/5 World Background 5/5

Pokemon: Master of tactics

Pokemon: Chronicles of Darkness

For Cain, the promised land of the Pokémon World was not the idyllic paradise he had hoped for. Instead, he found himself cast into the depths of darkness, a captive of the nefarious Team Rocket on the infamous Purgatory Island. But even in the darkest of times, fate is not always so cruel as to deny a glimmer of hope. Through a twist of destiny, Cain finds himself back where everything began. Armed with the knowledge and experiences of his previous life, he now has the opportunity to make the most of his second chance and forge his own path in the exciting world of Pokémon. -------------------------------------------------- Support me and get early access to chapters: www.patreon.com/jeezu -------------------------------------------------- #Transmigration #Regression/Time Travel #Second Chance -------------------------------------------------- Original Author: Hibiscus Hibiscus Website: https://www.uukanshu.com/b/95449

A ninja who is always hungry

Our protagonist meets a being named Rob after suffering the strangest truck accident in history and discovers that his abrupt death is the result of a bet, a rigged one. Rob promises him compensation for it and without much thought, he decides to grant him something else in line with his true wishes. I do not own Naruto or any other universe that will appear, except for the MC. The cover has been generated by an AI after many attempts. I read constructive ideas and suggestions because this is the first time I have written in this way, unlike my other previous books. This time I do it to entertain myself and disconnect a bit and if someone has a problem, they can read something else.

NARUTO: I BECAME A GOD

Apollo transmigrated as a boy about to graduate from the university of gods. To graduate from the University of the Gods, the student has to open access to a random world. While most students gain access to worlds of swords and magic, or worlds of cultivation of immortals, Apollo gained access to the world of Naruto. The power of the Gods grows based on the faith they receive from the believers in their worlds. While some Gods create natural disasters for humans to pray in fear, Apollo had a different idea. In order to gain faith in the ninja world, Apollo will take advantage of the Uzumaki Clan being about to be destroyed and give hope to these abandoned people through something called the Internet. Ninjas across the world will be shocked to discover that over the internet they can converse regardless of distance, can learn ninjustsus that only large villages know, and even can glimpse the long-awaited peace. Based on the Internet, Apollo will connect multiple universes that he knew as movies and anime in his previous life, gather countless believers, and create the story of the greatest god in history. -------- Discord server: https://discord.gg/ky35Kv7GHr Author Note: This is my original fanfiction, this is NOT a Chinese translation.

Seeing his honesty, ROB decided to let the man choose the world he wanted to go to instead, along with a healthy body, and a soon-to-be partner he didn't ask for. Is there romance? Yes! This is very much a slice of life journey through the Pokemon World. Current standing, MC works for the Aether Foundation, but has a high enough rank to enjoy his own freedom. Also decides to take the Professor route while going out on a journey with his friends. Current region: Kanto. Future regions remain unexplored. Three love interests. No more, no less.

Pokemon - A real story

There is a huge gap between the story of anime and the realistic story of Pokemon. This light novel closes that gap and gives the viewers a believable and exciting story with lots of adventure. Follow our protagonist Axel Blaze, a reincarnated person. With his knowledge of the previous Pokemon world, he hopes to dominate the world. But after he realizes how very wrong he was. This novel has a system, just to make things fun, the story is not focused on it though. "Success is like being pregnant, everyone says congratulations but nobody knows how many times you were fucked" So this novel tells the story of Axel blaze but all points of hidden difficulty he has to face to get it to there. -------- If you want to read advanced chapters earlier or just want to support me, you can do that at https://www.patreon.com/TheSilverPrince1 You can also visit my website and read 3 advanced chapters for free at: https://silver-prince.com/ (The story has a similar start as 'Pokemon - a mystical journey' so some people are probably confused.

Pokemon Saga: Journey of a Lifetime

Pokemon world, An land of fantasy, Adventure, Fun right? Wrong! Pokemon world is a ruthless vengeful world which is a trap in which many fall into. Come lets explore what exactly this world is with Ryan. Inspired by Pokemon: Master of tactics

A Pokemon in BNHA?!

Author is reborn as male Asui Tsuyu, Asui Tozen... with powers of all frog/toad pokemons. This is a BNHA x Pokemon crossover done right!! I'm going all out with this one. Additional Tags: AU, Orgy, MILF, Cougar, Dark skin, anal sex, vaginal sex, creampie, fetish, femdom, footjob, blowjob, cunnilingus, birth control... Brutal, gore, dark, drugs, alcoholism, human trafficking, crime.

Like Ash, he will travel around with two companions; Iris and Cilan. Unlike my other Pokemon fan-fic on here, it will be a lot darker, edgier, and it will look into why Trip acts the way he does towards others and his Pokemon. I wanted my characters to be a little older in this story, so I made the starting age to get Pokemon 14.

Ash: I'm coming mom! In the kitchen. Delia: well Ash, have you thought about what you want to be? Ash: Well, really, mom, not yet. Delia: Don't worry son, you don't have to hurry, but don't take too long either, remember that you are an adult and you must become independent. I clarify, Ash in Alola was 17, why is he now 18, ok.

Summary: The end of an era is upon us. The second Ghost Empire has fallen, torn down by the dragon of the West. A new generation of heroes must rise to defend their homes, even as a darker threat rises above the spectre of war. Medieval AU lightly based off Pokemon Conquest.

I asked a few weeks back for fanfic recommendations, and Traveler was by and large the single biggest "must-read," so that's where I started. I thought long-time fans of the fic might be interested in my take thus far as someone who was reading it for the first time. This is with the caveat that I haven't gotten quite as far as I would've liked ...

So basically, Ash realzes he was stupid in the Unova league, but also that he gets the ability to understand pokemon, so after some realization, he goes on a training trip before Kalos. He finds a myth of 2 stones that grant artificial 'Battle Bond' to any pokemon, whether evolved or unevolved, if the pokemon and trainer have a good enough bond ...

Timburr → Gurdurr → Conkeldurr : Conkeldurr is the sixth Pokémon that Trip was revealed to have. Conkeldurr first appeared in Ash and Trip's Third Battle! as a Timburr.It battled Ash's Oshawott and after a momentary pause in their battle, it was defeated by a single Razor Shell.. It was revealed to have evolved into Gurdurr sometime prior to Cilan Versus Trip, Ash Versus Georgia!, where ...

General Xuan Zhen, Mu Qing, was sentenced to banishment after suspicion of attacking his royal Highness, Xie Lian. Mu Qing, however, regressed in age, yet still maintain... You're a brand new zookeeper at The Halfling Zoo- a place where half-animals live in captivity. Your job is simple- feed them and study them.

Pokemon Bet: The Lost World - Fusion with the superhero setting Worm, where Rachel the dog trainer supervillain from Worm becomes a pokemon trainer. Worth a Shot. Pokemon Radiant Sun - Novelization of Pokemon Sun. Has the only romance I've found tolerable in a pokemon fic and the MC keeps within the carry limit of six.

Pokemon: Master of tactics. If Alex ever got the chance to get transmigrated into a world, he would choose Pokemon World. Since it is relatively safe. It is easy to earn money. Not to mention, such an adventurous and intriguing world. But when his wish somehow came true, he regretted it.

The Long Walk is criminally underrated. Not your typical story about pokemon, nor is the worldbuilding exactly typical, but it is truly poetic in its painting of the world. Ascension by The BlackStaff and NightMarE is another solid fic, not centered around Ash but rather Red. Pedestal by Digital Skitty is a classic.

Sioux City Public Museum brings history to life during walking tour at Logan Park Cemetery

SIOUX CITY (KTIV) -The Sioux City Public Museum taught a memorable history lesson while walking through the Logan Park Cemetery Saturday morning.

The walking tour took place on Saturday, April 27 at 10 a.m. The 90-minute walking tour is part of the Museum’s rotating tour of Sioux City cemeteries.

They provide the public with stories of notable individuals who have helped shape Sioux City’s existence such as prominent businessmen, famous cartoonists and more.

Museum Archives Manager, Tom Munson says cemeteries provide a great opportunity to learn about the town’s past.

“We talk about the people buried here. We talk about symbolism on headstones,” Munson said. “I think it’s just a great way for modern citizens to look back at the past, the people who have helped build up this community.”

KTIV’s Clayton Anderson will have more on Logan Park Cemetery in an upcoming episode of Hometown History.

Miles Russell continues to prove himself on the biggest of stages.

The 15-year-old Floridian earned a spot in last week’s LECOM Suncoast Classic on the Korn Ferry Tour and took full advantage of the opportunity by finishing in a tie for 15th. That paved the way for another exemption in Texas, where Russell opened the Veritex Bank Championship with a 3-under 68.

The left-hander opened his round with eight straight pars but finally broke through with a birdie at the par-5 9th. A long-range bomb from 30 feet followed at 11, and another birdie at the par-3 12th came minutes after. Suddenly, Russell sat at 3-under and in a solid position through 12 holes.

Russell made another birdie at the drivable, par-4 16th, which measured 329 yards on Thursday. But he made a costly mistake on the final hole, a par-5, as he three-putted from 25 feet for a bogey six.

Still, Russell played beautifully from tee to green, hitting 13-of-14 fairways and 16-of-18 greens. He scrambled nicely, too, going 2-for-2 when he missed the putting surface with his approaches.

But at the end of the day, Russell is 10 strokes behind Frankie Capan III, who shot 58 and broke Scottie Scheffler’s course record in the process.

Still, Russell has a great chance to make the cut on the Korn Ferry Tour again—one week after becoming the youngest player to record a top-25 finish on the PGA Tour or Korn Ferry Tour since 1983.

He will likely need another round in the 60s to make the cut again, but knowing how much talent this 15-year-old has, that is most certainly within the realm of possibilities.

Taylor Swift Supports Travis Kelce's Chiefs After Draft, Approves Pick!

Sonny vaccaro says caitlin clark deserved michael jordan-esque nike deal, sonny vaccaro on caitlin clark's nike pact ... she deserved a jordan-esque deal.

Sonny Vaccaro says he believes Caitlin Clark could have gotten a much better deal from Nike -- telling TMZ Sports he's sure the former Iowa superstar could've inked a pact similar to the one Michael Jordan got back in the day.

The shoe industry legend, of course, knows all about the deal MJ received -- he was the one who helped negotiate it. And, when he heard Clark only received $28 million over eight years to be with Phil Knight 's co., he was surprised it wasn't more.

Vaccaro tells us she could've landed a contract that not only gave her more annual money -- but also allowed her to take a cut of every Clark-branded item sold ... just like Jordan got with his initial Swoosh agreement in 1984.

"She should have gotten a piece of everything," the 84-year-old said, "just like Michael Jordan."

Vaccaro believes there were plenty of people to blame -- everyone from Clark's reps ... to other shoe companies who dropped out of the race and allowed Nike to come in with what appeared to be on its face a company-friendly contract.

"I'm saying to you," he said, "they messed up. They should have held on to the last drop."

Clark, though, doesn't seem too disappointed ... $28 mil, after all, is a ton of coin -- especially considering she's only set to make $76,000 from her WNBA contract this season.

And, hey, she gets her own signature Nike shoe ... which we're sure she's thrilled about.

Orange crush: Boats packed with revelers tour Amsterdam canals to celebrate the king’s birthday

People celebrated King's Day on the canals of Amsterdam, Netherlands, on Saturday.

AMSTERDAM (AP) — Decked in the national orange color, dancing to music, and eating orange-glazed pastries, many in the Netherlands Saturday are marking King’s Day, celebrating the birthday of their monarch who is enjoying a very slight rise in popularity as per a national poll.

As King Willem-Alexander celebrated his 57th birthday with his family in the northeastern city of Emmen, people across the country engaged in the traditional “free markets” held on that day, selling second-hand toys, books and other items. Others toured through the historic canals of the capital, Amsterdam as orange smoke from flares held aloft one boat drifted over vessels of all shapes and sizes jostling for space on a busy canal.

“Celebrating your birthday with your own family is the most beautiful thing you can experience. I'm very happy everybody is back,” Willem-Alexander told Dutch broadcaster NOS during a walkabout in Emmen, 190 kilometers (120 miles) northeast of the Dutch capital.

An annual poll published by the NOS for King’s Day showed Willem-Alexander’s popularity edging up very slightly since last year to 6.6 out of 10. His Argentine-born wife, Queen Maxima, scored 7.1 out of 10 in the poll of 1,015 people, conducted earlier this month.

The royals’ popularity took a hit during the COVID-19 pandemic after Willem-Alexander and his family went on vacation in Greece during a partial lockdown. The royals cut short their break amid national uproar and Willem-Alexander took the unusual step of issuing a video message to express his regret and contrition for the trip.

The king’s three daughters, Amalia, Alexia and Ariane have all spent time out of the country recently — Ariane has been studying in Italy while Alexia has taken a gap year to travel. The eldest and heir to the Dutch throne, Amalia, also returned ahead of the king’s birthday after being forced to leave her student accommodation in Amsterdam and move to Madrid following threats from the criminal underworld.

Amalia, 20, who is studying politics, psychology, law and economics at Amsterdam University, told NOS she was “extremely grateful to everybody who made it possible” for her to live in Spain, where she said she was able to enjoy more freedom than in the Netherlands.

But, she added: “I’m glad to be back.”
