But Miles Russell is no ordinary 15-year-old. In doing so, high school freshman Russell became the youngest player on record (since 1983) to notch a top-25 finish on the PGA Tour or the Korn Ferry Tour. Before turning 18, players are not eligible for non-member Korn Ferry Tour Points toward Special Temporary Membership. As the youngest player at the tournament by far, there was plenty of pressure on Russell throughout. “But good play is always good, and [it’s] definitely confidence-boosting to finish where we’re going to finish today.”

☆ 38-year-old financial coach spends only $124 on groceries a month—her No. 1 'secret tip' for food shopping

Between her college graduation in 2008 and her 26th birthday, she paid off $35,000 in debt and stashed more than $100,000 in investments. But as DeFelice continues to practice the budgeting methods that got her out of debt and allowed her to build wealth, the smaller numbers may be even more impressive. Consider, for instance, that in September, DeFelice spent just $123.65 on groceries. Given the current state of inflation, that's not a hard figure to reach on a single trip. "My secret tip is to always have a grocery list."

And on Sunday, he became the first player in NFL history to reach 100,000 passing yards in his career, combining regular season and playoffs, in a 16-13 comeback win for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers over the Los Angeles Rams. Before the game, Brady pointed to his current and former teammates when asked about potentially breaking the record. Brady drops back to pass during the first quarter of the game against the Rams.

☆ Buccaneers vs. Ravens: Tom Brady becomes most sacked quarterback in NFL history as Tampa Bay Buccaneers suffer third straight defeat
▼ + stars: | 2022-10-28 | by ( Ben Church | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +2 min

CNN —Tom Brady is used to setting new records but he wouldn’t have wanted this one. The 45-year-old became the most sacked quarterback in NFL history during the Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ 27-22 defeat to the Baltimore Ravens on Thursday Night Football. Brady was sacked twice at the end of the first half to initially equal and then break the record previously held by Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger. In truth, it’s hardly surprising that Brady is the most sacked quarterback in NFL history since he’s been playing in the league for over two decades and it does little to dent his astonishing legacy in the sport. It marks a new low in a difficult season for both Brady and the Buccaneers.
