Trump considers changing US 'soccer' to 'football' in hosting World CupNew Foto - Trump considers changing US 'soccer' to 'football' in hosting World Cup

WASHINGTON –President Donald Trumpis talking about putting his foot down. While watching theFIFA Club World Cup final match July 13,he told streaming channel DAZN TVhe was considering issuing an executive order to change the name of the sport in the U.S. from "soccer" to "football," as it called around the rest of the world. "I think we can do that, I think I could do that,"Trump said with a laugh for the interviewpublished July 14. "They call it 'football,' but I guess we call it 'soccer,' but that change could be made very easily," Trump added. "But it's great to watch." Trump is no stranger to name changes, having already ordered the government to change theGulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America, and then pressured private mapmakers to follow suit. The sport is widely called football in Europe and around much of the world, while the United States, Canada and Australia refer to it as soccer. Pointedly calling the sport soccer has long been a prominent symbol of defiance for American national teams and their supporters.U.S. fans chanted "it's called soccer"at a game against England during the World Cup in 2022. Trump, a former owner of the New Jersey Generals in the U.S. Football League in the 1980s, has promoted the sport that might formerly be known as soccer because theUnited States will co-host the World Cupwith Mexico and Canada next year. The championship will be played in the same place, New Jersey's MetLife Stadium, where Chelsea beat Paris Saint-Germain 3-0. Trump wasseated at the game next to Gianni Infantino, the president of the Federation Internationale de Football Association. Fans booed Trump when he appeared briefly on the jumbotron during the national anthem and when he posed with match referees during the trophy ceremony. Trump handed Chelsea their trophyand stood in the middle of the players for their team photo and celebration. "I knew he was going to be there, but I didn't know he was going to be on the stand when we lifted the trophy, so I was a bit confused," said Chelsea midfielder Cole Palmer, who scored two goals during the match.

The Open Championship or the British Open? Even in Northern Ireland it depends on the audienceNew Foto - The Open Championship or the British Open? Even in Northern Ireland it depends on the audience

PORTRUSH, Northern Ireland (AP) — Collin Morikawa can take solace in not being the only person to refer to golf's oldest championship by its unofficial name. He delivereda victory speech as sterling as his performanceat Royal St. George's in 2021. As he held the precious claret jug, he paid tribute to the spectators and said, "To see some of the best fans I've ever seen out here, I look forward to making my trip every year to the British Open to see you guys cheer us on." The R&A must have cringed. It had spent the past several years on a renewed branding campaign to drive home the proper name of this major: The Open Championship. It since has been shortened to "The Open." It is the first. It is the original. And now the 153rd edition is in Northern Ireland, which is part of the United Kingdom but is not on the island of Great Britain. British Open? The Associated Press referred to this major by different names at the start, but for the last century or more has called it the British Open to distinguish it from other national golf championships. Several other news outlets — mainly in the United States, but stretching to other corners of the globe — also called it the British Open. "It's meant to be The Open Championship," said Adam Scott of Australia. "I've probably slipped and called it the British Open, but I do it mostly with Americans so they know which one." Imagine his surprise — maybe disgust — to learn that when the Open first came to Northern Ireland in 1951, The Daily Telegraph in Sydney wrote: "South African Bobby Locke and English professional Tom Hargreaves today had record scores on Royal Portrush in the second qualifying round of the British Open golf championship." "Peter Thomson would roll in his grave," Scott said with a smile. The Open Championship began in 1860 when Willie Park Sr. defeated seven other golfers at Prestwick in Scotland, the home of golf. It took 35 years for another big championship to come along at Newport Country Club in Rhode Island known as the U.S. Open. That was followed by the South African Open, the Canadian Open and the Australian Open. Just about every country has an Open. The late Robert De Vicenzo has won more than 15 of them, from the German Open and French Open to the Peru Open and Uruguay Open. He also won the biggest Open of them all at Royal Liverpool in 1967. "Roberto de Vicenzo, 44-year-old golfing gaucho from the Argentine, climaxed 20 years of fruitless trying Saturday and beat out defending titleholder Jack Nicklaus by two strokes for the British Open Championship," the AP story read. When the "British Open" began is a little more unclear. J.H. Taylor won at St. Andrews in 1900 and the AP account referred to the "open golf championship." Except thata few paragraphs later, it noted Taylor registered his "third triumph in the English championships."Never mind that it was played in Scotland. British Open was used in 1914 when Harry Vardon won for the record sixth time. The Open left the island Great Britain for the first time in 1951 when it came across the Irish Sea to Royal Portrush. The AP account that year: "Methodical Max Faulkner, a par-wrecking Englishman who spent one winter milking cows to strengthen his golf hands, won the British open championship Friday in a dramatic rain-soaked finish." Arnold Palmer called it the British Open in his autobiography, "A Golfer's Life." But when asked by the R&A to write the foreword in a book celebrating 150 years of golf's oldest championship, Palmer called it "The Open Championship." When in Rome. Nicklaus was talking about his 1986 Masters victory one year when someone asked him how he decided which of his sons, Jack II and Steve, would caddie at which majors. "They started splitting it up," Nicklaus said. "I think Jackie took the Masters, and I think he had the Open. And Steve had the British Open." It's an American thing. But not always. One of the grandest occasions in golf was in 1930, when the great Bobby Jones won the British Amateur at St. Andrews and then captured the claret jug at Royal Liverpool on his way to winning the Grand Slam of that era — the impregnable quadrilateral, as it was called. Geoffrey Beazley, the captain of Royal Liverpool, presented the trophy to Joneswith a passionate speech that is worth listening to now for those who feel it is sacrilege to refer to this major as anything but "The Open." "Another championship, a British Open championship, is completed," he says. Beazley congratulated Jones for not only winning the British Amateur at St. Andrews, "but being here amongst us this evening as winner of the British Open championship." Ahem. Of course, the real test will be if the British Open goes to Portmarnock outside Dublin. Unlike Northern Ireland, the country of Ireland is not part of the United Kingdom. Calling it the British Open would make no sense. The R&A is in the middle of a feasibility study. Mark Darbon, the new CEO of the R&A, says it is serious about taking the Open out of Britain for the first time. "If you go back in history, the home territory of the Royal & Ancient Golf Club of St. Andrews is the British Isles, basically," he said in a recent interview. That should be enough for someone to call it the British Open. Just don't look for that on any merchandise the R&A sells. ___ On The Fringe analyzes the biggest topics in golf during the season. ___ AP golf:https://apnews.com/hub/golf

World No. 1 Golfer Scottie Scheffler Says Winning is 'Not Fulfilling': 'Sometimes I Just Don't Understand the Point'New Foto - World No. 1 Golfer Scottie Scheffler Says Winning is 'Not Fulfilling': 'Sometimes I Just Don't Understand the Point'

Joe Robbins/Icon Sportswire via Getty Scottie Scheffler opened up about his complicated relationship with winning ahead of the Open Championship The world No. 1 golfer says winning is "fulfilling from the sense of accomplishment, but it's not fulfilling from a sense of the deepest places of your heart" Scheffler says he loves golf, but that "sometimes I just don't understand the point" To the top golfer in the world, winning is not all it's cracked up to be. Ahead of the Open Championship in Northern Ireland, the world No. 1 golferScottie Schefflergot real about his relationship with winning — and how "amazing" but fleeting earning a victory can be, according toESPN. Win or lose, it's always on to the next, the two-time Masters winner, 29, explained at Royal Portrush Golf Club on Tuesday, July 15, two days ahead of the championship. It's something that he grapples with "on a daily basis." "It's like showing up at the Masters every year; it's like why do I want to win this golf tournament so badly? Why do I want to win the Open Championship so badly?" Scheffler told reporters, before answering his own question: "I don't know because, if I win, it's going to be awesome for two minutes." "This is not a fulfilling life," the 2025 PGA Championship winner said. "It's fulfilling from the sense of accomplishment, but it's not fulfilling from a sense of the deepest places of your heart." Christian Petersen/Getty The feeling of accomplishment that accompanies a win, he explained, is "cool," but often leaves him wondering exactly why he does what he does. "Is it great to be able to win tournaments and to accomplish the things I have in the game of golf? Yeah, it brings tears to my eyes just to think about it because I've literally worked my entire life to be good at this sport. To have that kind of sense of accomplishment, I think, is a pretty cool feeling," Scheffler said, per ESPN. "To get to live out your dreams is very special, but at the end of the day, I'm not out here to inspire the next generation of golfers," he continued. "I'm not out here to inspire someone to be the best player in the world because what's the point?" To demonstrate, the golf star recalled how it felt towin the CJ Cup Byron Nelson tournamentin May, a victory he has been working toward "his entire life," as it's held just north of his hometown of Dallas. "You win it, you celebrate, get to hug my family, my sister's there, it's such an amazing moment," the golfer, who finished with a PGA-tying record for lowest score at -31, said. "Then it's like, okay, what are we going to eat for dinner? Life goes on." Added Scheffler: "It feels like you work your whole life to celebrate winning a tournament for like a few minutes. It only lasts a few minutes." Kevin C. Cox/Getty The moments of euphoria that follow a win may be fleeting, the golf star said, yet he can't help but seek them out. And the alternative is far worse: "It sucks," Scheffler said of losing. "I hate it, I really do." "We work so hard for such little moments. I'm kind of [a] sicko; I love putting in the work, I love getting to practice, I love getting to live out my dreams. But at the end of the day, sometimes I just don't understand the point," he said, per ESPN. Never miss a story — sign up forPEOPLE's free daily newsletterto stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer​​, from celebrity news to compelling human interest stories. Regardless of how Scheffler plays, or how a competition pans out, "Life," as he stated earlier, always "goes on." Michael Reaves/Getty "If I come in second this week or if I finish dead last, no matter what happens, we're always on to the next week," the golf star said. "That's one of the beautiful things about golf, and it's also one of the frustrating things, because you can have such great accomplishments, but the show goes on. That's just how it is." Amid Scheffler's winning streak this year — after a historic win at the Byron Nelson, he later won the PGA Championship and tied for fourth at Colonial in Fort Worth — his wife, Meredith, and 1-year-old son Bennetthave been by his side, cheering him on. After winning the Memorial Tournament on June 1 for a consecutive year — a feat only matched byTiger Woods— the golfer toldCBS Sports' Amanda Balionisthat Meredith "is mybiggest supporter, she's my best friend." "You know, this is our life, out here on the road. It's been a lot of fun," Scheffler said. As for Meredith, he added: "Yeah, definitely couldn't do it without her."
