William M. Casey, a former New York City deputy police chief who was the unheralded hero of the “Dirty 30” corruption investigation that ensnared one-sixth of the officers assigned to a West Harlem precinct, died on Nov. 9 at his home in Pleasantville, N.Y. The cause was complications of a stroke and Parkinson’s disease, his daughter, Kimberly Wildey, said. The scandal — often described as the largest police corruption case involving a single precinct in the department’s history — was uncovered by a commission on police corruption appointed by Mayor David N. Dinkins in 1992 and headed by Justice Milton Mollen of the New York State Supreme Court. The case was prosecuted by the U.S. attorney’s office for the Southern District of New York under Mary Jo White. The operation resulted in charges against 34 officers, 30 of whom were either convicted or pleaded guilty to crimes ranging from perjury and civil rights violations to stealing drugs or cash from narcotics dealers.

Three playoff tournaments culminating with the 30-player Tour Championship at East Lake will determine the winner of the $25 million payout, an increase from the $18 million that will be paid out to this year's champion. The other five - The Sentry, AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am, RBC Heritage, Wells Fargo Championship, and Travelers Championship - will have no cut. "We are excited about the roll-out of the PGA Tour's reimagined schedule and what the season will offer to our fans: a January start with stars competing head-to-head more often, alongside the weekly drama of life-altering moments and the emergence of new stars," said PGA Tour Commissioner Jay Monahan. The 2023 FedExCup regular season concluded on Sunday at the Wyndham Championship with Jon Rahm atop the leaderboard heading into the playoffs, which begin on Thursday with the St. Jude Championship in Memphis.

Romp in the rain as American Harman wins Open

It's just always bugged me but I was really proud of the way that I struck the ball today. Few of the thousands huddled under a sea of umbrellas would have tipped world number 26 Harman to win before the tournament. Likewise, Young, Rahm, Day and England's Tommy Fleetwood were all unable to hole the putts that would have at least asked some questions of Harman's nerve. But not even a Merseyside monsoon could rain on Harman's parade as he enjoyed a victory march down the last. Shubhankar Sharma tied for eighth place to post the best finish by an Indian at the British Open -- one of only 22 players to finish an attritional Open under par.

"So pleased with the way I hung in there the last couple days," Harman told reporters. "Got off to a bad start both days and turned it around, so really happy with that." Starting his third round shortly after Rahm had completed a course-record 63, Harman dropped two shots in his first four holes. "It would have been really easy to let the wheels start spinning and really kind of let it get out of control," he said. Harman said he had always believed he could win a major but was worried he might have missed his chance.

Harman, seeking his first major title, dropped two shots in the first four holes before birdies at the fifth, ninth, 12th and 13th took him to 12 under par, five ahead of American Cameron Young and six clear of Rahm. The 36-year-old Harman, world number 26, showed great courage and composure after his shaky start, particularly as it happened just after Rahm had completed his round to ramp up the pressure. "The start was tough, I hit a couple of loose shots," Harman told a news conference. World number three Rahm conjured up eight birdies in a majestic display of ball-striking to give himself a chance to win his third major crown and second of the year. "That's the best round I've played on a links golf course ever," Rahm told reporters.

The 27-year-old, a native of Hoylake, came through qualifying to earn a place in the 156-man field. Rory McIlroy stands a better chance of claiming the top prize, the in-form world number two warming up for the tournament by winning the Scottish Open on Sunday. A fifth major victory is long overdue for the Northern Irishman, who won the British Open in 2014 when it was also held at Royal Liverpool. American world number one Scottie Scheffler is among the early starters and will tee off at 9:47 a.m, a few minutes before defending champion Cameron Smith. The R&A, which organises the British Open, welcomed the partnership agreement and hoped for "an end to the disruption in the men's professional game".

"When you hit it into these bunkers you're sort of riding your luck at that point. McIlroy came close to winning last year's Open when he led into the final day only to be reeled in by Cameron Smith. He was second at the U.S. Open in June but his win at the Scottish Open underlined his favourites' tag. Two over through 12, I think walking to the 13th tee I probably would have taken even par to finish the day. "Just go out there in the morning, shoot something in the 60s, and I'll hopefully be right in the mix."

It may be the shortest hole on the course, but Royal Liverpool’s par-three 17th hole is already proving a tall order for some players at the 151st edition of the tournament.

CNN —Tiger Woods will not play at the Open Championship, the last men’s major of the year, tournament organizers announced Friday. The fifteen-time major champion underwent “successful” ankle surgery in April following an early withdrawal from The Masters, subsequently not competing at the PGA Championship or this week’s US Open. Mike Blake/ReutersNo timeline for a return to competitive action was specified following Woods’ surgery, a “subtalar fusion procedure” to treat post-traumatic arthritis in his ankle. He missed only one major in 2022 – the US Open – after his return from a 17-month absence from the sport. A three-time Open Championship winner, an emotional Woods received a rousing reception as he left the St. Andrews course – for potentially the last time at the major – at last year’s tournament in Scotland.
