Tennis latests news and updates from RNClub.com? Remember, my models rate win-win situations higher than distributive ones. Meaning, I would be pushing for a deal to be signed now whether I was working for Watson — who can be retained for two more years on his rookie deal — OR the Texans. Houston made some big moves this offseason, trading away receiver DeAndre Hopkins and signing left tackle Laremy Tunsil to an extension, and the best historical references show that securing Watson now correlates to more wins in the long term. My models rate getting Watson’s deal done this season as almost exactly the same value as the Chiefs extending Patrick Mahomes. When I sort the surrounding offensive casts of the top seven QBs in terms of win-share in my model (including Watson, Mahomes, Lamar Jackson, Aaron Rodgers, Russell Wilson, Drew Brees, Tom Brady), Watson’s current surrounding cast on offense ranks the lowest … by far.
“Think of the best defenders in Premier League history — John Terry, Rio Ferdinand, and Nemanja Vidic. [Virgil] Van Dijk is all three players rolled into one.” Those were the words of former Liverpool and England star Jamie Redknapp, according to Goal. A bold statement, but one difficult to argue with given just how excellent the Dutchman has been since his move to Anfield in early 2018. His Terry-esque heart, his Ferdinand-esque brain, and Vidic-esque physicality have transformed Liverpool’s back four into the best in Europe. Should Jurgen Klopp’s side win its first ever Premier League title as expected this season, a lot of credit will, and rightly so, go to Van Dijk.
After a devastating Achilles injury during last year’s NBA Finals, there’s no knowing what Kevin Durant will look like when he finally returns to the court. If he’s anything like the player he was pre-injury, this ranking of No. 4 may be too low. For a player not built on pure athleticism and more on skill and shooting, KD might be just fine as he eases his way back into game shape. A player at his size that is able to dribble and shoot the way he does is one of a kind, and Durant has a lot to prove now with the Brooklyn Nets and away from Steph Curry. Regardless of anything, a healthy Durant is absolutely a top five player in the NBA and the game is better with him on the court. Read additional details at Floyd Mayweather Jr Net Worth Biography.
Both Tyson Fury and Deontay Wilder were rewarded financially for their epic rematch in February. Gate receipts from the Fury-Wilder rematch, which followed a controversial draw in December 2018, set a new Las Vegas heavyweight boxing record of $16.9m, and pay-per-view buys estimated at a reported $800,000-850,000, which was over double what the first fight attracted. “Tyson is world champion, the man to beat, and there have been some great deals for him put together by the whole team — us, Top Rank and MTK Global — and that’s why he’s at No 1 [among boxers],” Warren told ESPN.
This year, 2020, was supposed to be epic for golf. We were adding the Olympics and the Ryder Cup to the season’s four majors, with Tiger Woods kicking off the year by defending his green jacket. The coronavirus changed all that. It put the game into perspective and halted sports around the world. Now, with the PGA Tour set to return, what I am excited to see the most is greatness. It’s selfish, I know, but I’m sick of re-run greatness. I want to see it live again. Find extra information at News for Sports.
