What's good, sports fanatics? I'm Mike, and you're tuned into the spiciest sports tea on the airwaves—it's your daily Sports Hangover update for Friday, February 28, 2025.
First up, Kansas City Chiefs' tight end Travis Kelce isn't hanging up his cleats just yet. The 35-year-old confirmed he'll be back next season, aiming to get in top shape and chase another championship. After a tough loss to the Eagles ended their Super Bowl streak, Kelce's determination is stronger than ever.
Swinging over to the greens, Jake Knapp just made PGA Tour history by shooting a sizzling 59 at the Cognizant Classic. This bogey-free round, packed with 12 birdies, makes him the 14th player to break 60 on the Tour. Talk about being on fire!
Meanwhile, at the same tournament, Billy Horschel had a wild encounter with a real-life gator. After finishing the sixth hole, Horschel noticed a police officer struggling to shoo away the reptile. Channeling his inner Crocodile Dundee, he used his wedge to gently nudge the gator back to the water. Just another day in Florida, right?
In NBA news, coaching legend Gregg Popovich won't be returning to the San Antonio Spurs this season after suffering a stroke in November. The 76-year-old, who holds the record for most coaching wins in NBA history, is hopeful about a future comeback. In the meantime, acting coach Mitch Johnson is steering the ship.
On the international soccer scene, Fenerbahce's manager, Jose Mourinho, has been slapped with a four-match ban and a hefty fine. His crime? Criticizing Turkish referees after a goalless draw against Galatasaray. Looks like the "Special One" will have to watch the next few games from the sidelines.
That's all the juice I've got for today's Sports Hangover. This is Mike, telling you to stay thirsty for more sports drama. Peace out!
