Jennifer Lopez reveals what makes a man 'sexy' to her
Jennifer Lopez revealed what she finds sexiest in a man.
The singer and actress shared her thoughts on it during her performance at the Dolce & Gabbana show in Taormina, Sicily on Thursday.
"But you know what really makes a man attractive? It’s not the watch. It’s not the car. It’s not the private jet. It really isn’t, although that’s nice," the 56-year-old star began.
"It’s nice. It’s seeing them make the bed in the morning or wash the dishes for you when you’re tired at night. That’s what’s sexy. Now that’s what I call sexy," she continued.

"Cause ladies, you know, we do all the things. We do all the things," Lopez concluded.
According to People magazine, the audience laughed and applauded her.
Lopez performed a number of her songs, including "Love Don’t Cost a Thing," "Waiting For Tonight," "Let’s Get Loud," "Ain’t Your Mama," and "Save Me Tonight."
The mother of two wore a sparkling bodysuit for her performance.
Prior to speaking about what she finds sexiest in men, Lopez had a playful exchange with one of her backup dancers, per People.

"Fix my hair okay. Fix my hair. But the rest of you, get out of here. You’re broke. I don’t need you. I don’t need your money. I don’t need your gifts. That’s right," she told him.
She then added: "You know, people look at me, they look at me for years, and they think I’m expensive. You see my sparkly cup. And I am, I am expensive. You see my sparkly cup. And I am, I am expensive," she said with a laugh.
"I am, but I have my own money. Ladies, am I right? We don’t need anybody to buy us anything. We don’t. We want them to, sometimes that’s nice."
Recently, Lopez opened up about why her most recent divorce ended up being "the best thing" for her.
During an interview on SiriusXM's "Howard Stern Show," the star discussed her 2024 divorce from Ben Affleck, detailing what she learned from the split.
"When I got divorced this last time, it was the best thing that ever happened to me," she explained. "Because it really made me journey into — I mean, I had a religious coach. I had a therapist, a couple's therapist, an individual therapist. I had a coach to understand addiction. I had everything. I was like, 'I'm gonna f---in' figure this s--- out if it kills me.'"
The "Hustlers" star has been married four times, including to Marc Anthony from 2004 to 2014, and to Affleck from 2022 to 2024.
"What I learned, it's not that I'm not lovable — it's that they're not capable... They don't have it in them," she explained, adding, "And they gave me what they had. They gave me all of it, every time. All the rings, all the things I could ever want. The houses, the rings, the marriage. All of it. But.…"
After working through her divorce, Lopez noted she is "able to sit here in a much more self-assured, self-aware way" and reflect on everything that has happened in her life.
"Whether my mother, my father, in my own life, how I learned to love, how I felt neglected — all the things that are in your head as a person — and know who I am and just really appreciate that person," she said. "[I] feel really comfortable and good in being myself, all the good parts and all the kind of complicated things."
Why Conor McGregor calls his exact knee injury 'quite shocking' after finding out results
Conor McGregor has finally revealed what exactly happened to his right knee during a very short return to the UFC octagon on July 11 in Las Vegas.
McGregor, who lost by technical knockout to Max Holloway in UFC 329, called it "quite shocking" to learn what he injured during UFC 329.
"Update: it was acl and meniscus," McGregor posted on X.

"It is the same injury as the first Holloway fight, only this time the opposite leg. Quite shocking."
McGregor previously fought Holloway 13 years ago before he gained worldwide stardom for his mixed martial arts. It’s a total coincidence this happened now over a decade later, but McGregor is trying to keep a positive mindset once again.
"With today’s regenerative medicine advancements and improved training methods it is well within my realm to return by next summer," McGregor continued, confidently. "I am walking without a crutch. I done leg extension machine work the other day to no issue. So I can walk without aid, and activate my quad under resistance. All very positive. I am maximum discipline and have maintained it fully since the bout.
JOE ROGAN CALLS OUT 'CRAZY' KICK ATTEMPT BY CONOR MCGREGOR THAT LED TO INJURY: 'YOU DON'T DO THAT'
"I wonder was I saved from something worse here. I believe so. I would have attended the after party as ‘the man’ and who knows then. I believe I was saved. Thank you God! On we go, no sad stories. Thank you for the support and well wishes everyone, your health is your wealth."
It wasn’t much of a bout, as McGregor attempted a jumping roundhouse kick on Holloway. As McGregor landed on the canvas, he immediately grabbed at his right knee and hit the deck.
Holloway took advantage of the situation, trying to get McGregor while he was down. But despite evading some serious punches from Holloway, McGregor clearly wasn’t right.
Referee Mike Beltran eventually called the fight just seconds into the first round, giving Holloway the victory and ending the UFC 329 co-main event in lackluster fashion.
After the match, McGregor was understandably upset.
"My head gasket is gone. Destroyed," he wrote on X at the time. "I had no injury/injuries going into the fight. I was throwing kicks, planted and jumping, all throughout camp as well as backstage before the fight. This came out of nowhere. I am beyond dark here. I can only describe it as hell."
McGregor’s camp even showed pre-fight footage from the locker room, where the two-division champion was seen rehearsing his jumping roundhouse kicks. He was landing perfectly fine.
McGregor’s UFC career record is now 22-7 after this TKO finish, but it seems like the 38-year-old is still ready to recover and get back in the octagon. He doesn’t want to end his fighting career in that fashion.

Atlanta Hawks dump former No. 1 pick Zaccharie Risacher after disappointing two-year stint
Zaccharie Risacher is probably a name you haven't heard much since he was selected first overall in the 2024 NBA Draft.
After two seasons with the Atlanta Hawks, Risacher is already on the move.
Another NBA trade dropped Sunday, sending the 21-year-old to the Dallas Mavericks and bringing Atlanta's underwhelming gamble to an early end.
Atlanta received Lu Dort from the Thunder, Oklahoma City secured two second-round picks, and Dallas landed Risacher and guard Ryan Nembhard from the Hawks.
Top picks rarely get cut loose this quickly. While draft-night trades happen in minutes and Andrew Wiggins was famously flipped 57 days post-draft for Kevin Love before ever putting on a Cavaliers jersey, a top pick getting dealt for purely basketball-related reasons after two years is a whole different category of rare.
WIZARDS SELECT AJ DYBANTSA FIRST OVERALL IN 2026 NBA DRAFT
Moving on after just 142 career games puts Risacher in rare company alongside Markelle Fultz, who was traded from Philadelphia after 33 games across two injury-plagued seasons, and Pervis Ellison, who lasted just one year in Sacramento before being shipped out.
Unlike Fultz or Ellison, Risacher wasn't sidelined by a shoulder condition or persistent health red flags. Atlanta simply pulled the plug, deciding not to stick with the top pick after just two seasons.
Risacher was part of an underwhelming 2024 NBA Draft class that featured names like Alex Sarr and Cody Williams in the top 10. Risacher was far from the runaway No. 1 overall projection, with many arguing for Sarr at the time.
That year's poor selections were also underscored by Wembanyama going the year prior and Cooper Flagg a year later.
The 6-foot-8 Risacher entered the league as a long, two-way wing whose upside was tied to his shot-making. He averaged 12.6 points as a rookie before slipping to 9.6 in his second season.

'Resurrection of the Christ' writer reveals Mel Gibson's dark spiritual warning about 'Passion' sequel
Mel Gibson's longtime collaborator Randall Wallace revealed the dark spiritual warning that the two-time Oscar winner gave him before they began writing the sequel to "The Passion of the Christ."
The 76-year-old screenwriter, who previously teamed up with the 70-year-old director and actor for 1995's "Braveheart," 2002's "We Were Soldiers" and 2016's "Hacksaw Ridge," co-wrote the screenplay for "The Resurrection of the Christ" with Gibson and his brother Donal Gibson.
During a recent appearance on Raymond Arroyo's podcast "Arroyo Grande," Wallace recalled how he urged Gibson to tell the Resurrection story following the massive success of "The Passion of the Christ."
MEL GIBSON'S 'RESURRECTION OF THE CHRIST' REVEALS FIRST PHOTOS AFTER LONG-AWAITED PASSION SEQUEL
"Mel didn't approach me. I approached him, actually," Wallace said of how they began working together on "The Resurrection of the Christ."
"This is not to say that over the years, he hadn't thought many times about the Resurrection," Wallace continued. "In fact, in the original ‘The Passion of the Christ,’ the original cut didn't have the resurrection scene. He was getting feedback from people saying, 'We really want to see that.'"
Wallace said Gibson ultimately decided to add the brief Resurrection scene that serves as "The Passion of the Christ's" closing epilogue.
In the sequence, Jesus is seen rising, leaving the tomb, and revealing the wounds in his hands before the movie ends.
Wallace told Arroyo that he proposed developing a feature-length film depicting the Resurrection while he and Gibson were on a promotional tour for "Hacksaw Ridge" in 2016.
"Having studied the Resurrection and being so consumed by it, I thought about it many times," Wallace recalled. "I didn't have anything to do with ‘The Passion of the Christ.’ When we were promoting ‘Hacksaw Ridge,’ we were sitting there talking about our lives, and I said, ‘Look, you know, the story that you really need to tell is the Resurrection.’"
Wallace went on to recount Gibson's reaction to his suggestion, remembering that the director believed the project could invite spiritual warfare.
"There was this long pause, and he said something profoundly beautiful. He said, 'If we do this, it can't be for the money, and it can't be to get back at people that have hated us or wronged us or been unhappy with us,'" Wallace recalled. "And I said, ‘Amen to that.’"
"Then he said, 'You know, Satan's going to come after you,'" Wallace continued.
"I said, 'Well, you know, Satan doesn't really care about Baptists.' It's really good when Satan can get a Catholic. We're a dime a dozen," he said as Arroyo laughed.
"And of course, I was being facetious, but I was also thinking…" Wallace continued.
"What if he's right?" Arroyo interjected.
"Well, yeah," Wallace admitted.
"That's what I would be thinking," Arroyo said.
"We had a beautiful conversation about grace," Wallace recalled.
Wallace told Arroyo that conversation with Gibson marked the beginning of their collaboration on "The Resurrection of the Christ."
"I knew he had written ‘The Passion,’ was very much deeply involved in the writing of it. And I said, 'Look, let's partner up. I'll write a draft, give it to you, then we'll start tearing it up, go through it. You do your thing, I'll do mine. We'll work together, we'll work apart.' So we started that way," Wallace remembered.
Gibson has previously said he, Wallace and Donal spent roughly six to eight years writing and refining the screenplay for "The Resurrection of the Christ," which will be split into two parts.

In May, Gibson announced that production on the sequel had been completed. "The Resurrection of the Christ: Part One" will be released May 6, 2027, on Ascension Day, the Christian holiday marking Jesus Christ’s ascent into heaven 40 days after Easter Sunday. "The Resurrection of the Christ: Part Two" is scheduled to debut May 25, 2028, over Memorial Day weekend.
In a press release, Gibson shared that the story was brought to the screen "exactly as I envisioned it."
"I’m deeply grateful to my incredibly talented cast and crew for pouring their hearts into this production. Together, we created something powerful," Gibson said.
"This film represents a major part of my life’s work, and it has demanded everything of me as a filmmaker and as an artist. This is far more than a film to me. It’s a mission I’ve carried for over 20 years to tell what I believe is the most important story in human history," he added.

"The Passion of the Christ," which premiered in February 2004, depicted the final 12 hours of Jesus’ life leading up to the crucifixion. Its graphic violence and subject matter made it one of that year's most controversial movies.
The film was a smash hit, grossing more than $610 million worldwide on a reported $30 million budget. It also earned Academy Award nominations for its makeup, score and cinematography.
While speaking with Arroyo, Wallace teased what audiences can expect from the long-awaited sequel.
"His unique vision of the spiritual realm is really special," Wallace said of Gibson.
"The interesting thing is that, while in some ways — the ultimate movie — I want to keep it all secret about what's going to happen," he continued. "But the ultimate movie, in some ways, will have elements that people have never seen before."
"In fact, in many ways, it'll be stuff nobody's ever seen," Wallace added. "And yet I believe it'll be, in a certain way, the most orthodox telling. It'll be the most consistent telling of the overall belief, the awe and the mystery that Christians experience when they experience the Resurrection."

Josh Kerr crushes 27-year-old world mile record after delivering on bold promise in London
British runner Josh Kerr ran the fastest mile in history Saturday, clocking 3 minutes, 42.66 seconds to shatter the men's mile world record at the London Diamond League.
Kerr's historic run broke Moroccan Hicham El Guerrouj's mark of 3:43.13, set in Rome in 1999, ending a record that had stood for 27 years, according to The Associated Press.
The 28-year-old then took a celebratory lap around London Stadium after cementing his place in track and field history.
SABASTIAN SAWE FINISHES LONDON MARATHON IN UNDER TWO HOURS TO BREAK MEN’S WORLD RECORD
Video shared by the Diamond League on X captured the historic moment as Kerr threw his arms into the air after crossing the finish line while the packed stadium erupted.
The league's official account declared, "History made by Josh Kerr!"
The former University of New Mexico standout finished more than three seconds ahead of American Yared Nuguse, who crossed in 3:45.69. Britain's Jake Heyward finished third in a personal best 3:46.73, according to the official results released by World Athletics.
SABASTIAN SAWE FINISHES LONDON MARATHON IN UNDER TWO HOURS TO BREAK MEN’S WORLD RECORD
Reaction poured in across social media shortly after Kerr's record-breaking run.
Team Scotland wrote on X: "A new world record. Congratulations to Josh Kerr, breaking the long-standing mile world record with an incredible run of 3:42.66. What an achievement."
The Olympic Games' official X account also celebrated the feat, posting: "History made. Great Britain's Josh Kerr roars to a world record in the men's mile, snapping a 27-year record in 3:42.66 at the London Diamond League."
SABASTIAN SAWE FINISHES LONDON MARATHON IN UNDER TWO HOURS TO BREAK MEN’S WORLD RECORD
Kerr had targeted the London Diamond League mile as one of his primary goals this season, which does not include the Olympics or World Championships, according to the AP.
Speaking with BBC Sport after the race, Kerr said the atmosphere inside London Stadium helped carry him through the final stretch.
"It was just me, my shoes and the track," he told the outlet. "I was absolutely deaf in that last 110 meters."
"I didn't take my foot off the gas," Kerr continued. "But ... I started to glide and I was like, 'Oh wow, this feels incredible.' It's incredible because I'm slowing down. So, I was like, 'I better get to the line.' So, crossing the finish line, seeing 42-something, anything, was my goal, so it was great."
Kerr also reflected on the pressure he put on himself after publicly declaring months ago that he would chase the record.
"It's very overwhelming with the amount of hype [I created]," he told BBC Sport. "It's silly to call [the attempt] that early because there's a lot of things which can go wrong, but I am surrounded by amazing people and was able to stay consistent and put the work in."
Kerr said he hoped the performance would help define his legacy in British athletics.
"If I am to leave my mark on this sport as a British legend, following in the footsteps of the legends behind me, I have to put in those performances," he told BBC Sport.
"Those performances take every single part of you, every single part of your team. The amount of work behind the scenes is incredible. Today it was a performance I was able to bring out — I just hoped it would be a little bit faster!"
Before turning professional, Kerr starred at the University of New Mexico, where he won three NCAA titles, captured eight Mountain West championships and set the collegiate record in the 1,500 meters, according to the school's athletics website.
Saturday's performance lowered Kerr's previous personal-best mile time of 3:45.34 by nearly three seconds and erased one of track and field's longest-standing world records, according to World Athletics.
Gisele Bündchen stuns in white bikini as she shares rare glimpse of baby son during family getaway in Tahiti
Gisele Bündchen showed off her summer style as she shared rare photos of herself with her one-year-old son while enjoying a family vacation in Tahiti.
On Saturday, the 45-year-old supermodel posted a carousel of snaps that included images of her youngest child, her husband Joaquim Valente and her older children Benjamin Rein, 16, and Vivian Lake, 13, whom she shares with her ex-husband Tom Brady, 48.
Bündchen and Valente married in 2025, months after welcoming their son, whose name they have not publicly revealed.

In the first photo, Bündchen donned a white bikini and a straw hat as she stood in the ocean hand in hand with her baby son, who wore matching white swim trunks.
The former Victoria's Secret Angel uploaded a selfie in which she was seen in a pink sleeveless knit dress that she paired with delicate gold necklaces and a white lei. Bündchen also sported a crown made of tropical flowers as she smiled at the camera.
In another photo, Bündchen wore the same ensemble while dancing with her baby son and Valente to live music played by Tahitian performers.
Valente was seen enjoying some quality time with their child in one snap that Bündchen shared. The jiu-jitsu instructor wore snorkeling goggles on his head and black swim trunks as he stood in the ocean while holding up their son as what appeared to be a stingray swam by in the water below them.
Bündchen also captured sweet moments that her children shared during the family trip. In one photo, Benjamin was seen holding his younger half-sibling while on a boat as they looked down at the waves.
Vivian was also seen on the boat while tenderly embracing her baby brother in another snap. Bündchen also included a photo of Vivian wrapping her arm around her older brother as the two enjoyed a scenic view from on top of a cliff.
In other images, the family was seen bike riding, snorkeling, doing headstands in the ocean, enjoying tropical scenery, eating fresh fruit and stargazing.
"What a special place! Que lugar especial!" Bündchen wrote in the caption of her slideshow.
Bündchen first confirmed her relationship with Valente in June 2023, around seven months after her divorce from Brady was finalized.
The model and the former NFL star made their split official in October 2022 after 13 years of marriage. Bündchen gave birth to her third child in February 2025 and she and Valente later wed during a secret ceremony in December 2025.
Last month, Bündchen praised Valente and honored her own father Valdir Bündchen in a Father's Day tribute that she shared on Instagram.
Happy Father’s Day @joaquimvalente !" Bündchen wrote in both English and Portuguese in the caption of her slideshow. "Thank you for leading by example, and for the values you embody, love, humility, integrity, discipline, kindness and consistency."

"You are an incredible role model," she continued. "We are all so grateful for you, and we love you so much.And dad, thank you for your unconditional love, wisdom, and support through every stage of my life."
"Happy Father’s Day to all the dads out there," Bündchen added.
Bündchen's carousel featured several photos of Valente in sweet moments with their son. The Vogue cover star also highlighted the close relationship that Valente shares with her older children. She included a snap in which Vivian was seen embracing Valente and a photo of Benjamin standing back to back with his stepfather.

NORAD F-16s intercept multiple aircraft violating temporary flight restrictions over New Jersey
The North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) announced on Sunday that its F-16s intercepted multiple aircraft that violated temporary flight restrictions over New Jersey.
NORAD F-16 fighter jets intercepted multiple general aviation aircraft that violated the temporary flight restriction airspace over Bedminster and East Rutherford in New Jersey, according to NORAD.
More than 10 general aviation aircraft entered restricted airspace on Sunday, including three that NORAD said it had to intercept.
FEDS CHARGE FOUR AS WORLD CUP DRONE CRACKDOWN TOPS 400 SEIZURES ACROSS US HOST CITIES NATIONWIDE
During two of the intercepts, NORAD aircraft dispensed flares to draw the pilots’ attention, which may have been visible to the public.
NORAD said the flares were deployed "with the highest regard for safety, burn out quickly and completely, and pose no danger to people on the ground."
PILOTS ACCIDENTALLY BROADCAST 'MEOWING' OVER REAGAN NATIONAL AIRPORT FREQUENCY
All general aviation aircraft were safely escorted out of the area by NORAD aircraft, NORAD said.
"Should NORAD aircraft intercept a general aviation aircraft, the pilot should immediately come up on frequency 121.5 or 243.0 and turn around to reverse course until receiving additional instructions on one of those frequencies," NORAD said.
NORAD urged pilots to check temporary flight restrictions before entering an airspace.
"Pilots: check your Notice to Airmen (NOTAMS) and FAA Temporary Flight Restrictions," NORAD said.
Former Blue Jays reliever Duane Ward dead at 62 while in Toronto for World Series tribute
Former MLB reliever Duane Ward, known for helping the Toronto Blue Jays win World Series in the 1990s, has died. He was 62 years old.
The Blue Jays announced Ward’s death on Sunday, saying he died of natural causes while in Toronto.
Ward was in Toronto for the unveiling of a statue outside the Blue Jays’ home Rogers Centre to commemorate the back-to-back World Series championship from 1992 and 1993, which he was a part of.

The unveiling was set for Saturday, where over two dozen players, coaches and executives were on hand to see it for the first time.
"Duane will be deeply missed by our fans, and we extend our heartfelt condolences to his family," the Blue Jays said in a statement. "Duane will always be a cherished part of the Blue Jays family, and we will be forever grateful for his contributions to our organization and to baseball in Canada."
BOBBY COX, LEGENDARY ATLANTA BRAVES MANAGER WHO LED 1995 WORLD SERIES CHAMPIONS, DEAD AT 84
The Blue Jays also had a tribute for Ward before Sunday’s first pitch against the Chicago White Sox, holding a moment of silence for him after a montage played on the videoboard in center field.
Ward was the top draft choice of the Atlanta Braves out of Farmington High School in New Mexico during the 1982 MLB Draft, but while he made his major league debut with the club, he didn’t last there long.
Ward was traded to the Blue Jays midway through the 1986 season, and he truly found a home north of the border.
He spent parts of nine years with the ballclub, turning into a key reliever that could be relied upon as the Blue Jays proved they had what it took to reach, and win, the World Series in the early 1990s.
Ward’s best season came during the 1993 World Series run, leading the league with 70 games finished and 45 saves, while owning a 2.13 ERA across 71.2 innings (71 games).
Ward also had a dominant 1.95 ERA during the 1992 season, earning himself 12 saves, and 103 strikeouts across 101.1 innings pitched.
In the postseason, Ward was just as exceptional, owning a 1.13 ERA and two saves during his World Series appearances. And though Game 6 of the 1993 World Series will forever be remembered for Joe Carter’s walk-off home run against the Philadelphia Phillies, it was Ward who earned the victory as the pitcher that shut the door to allow that to happen.
"Whether setting the stage in the eighth inning or closing out wins, he will be remembered for the role he played in some of the greatest moments in Blue Jays history," the team’s statement continued.
After an arm injury forced Ward to miss the entire 1994 season, he pitched in just four games in 1995 before he last saw a big league mound.
In 462 games, Ward earned a career 3.28 ERA with 679 strikeouts over 666.2 innings pitched.

Scottie Scheffler comments on Bryson DeChambeau's two-shot Open Championship penalty: 'not a cheater'
As the world's best player, when Scottie Scheffler speaks, it carries some weight. Which is why many golf fans were interested to see what he said about the controversial two-shot penalty handed out to Bryson DeChambeau after round two of The Open Championship.
Scheffler, who played with DeChambeau in that fateful second round, was asked about it the following day, but decided against giving his opinion. "I don't really have a ton to say on it," he told the media on Saturday, before changing his quote. "Actually, I do have a ton to say. I haven't decided exactly what I want to say publicly yet." He also added that he wanted to focus on the tournament at hand, without worrying about making comments that might take on a life of their own.
After a frustrating tournament filled with missed putts and missed opportunities through the first three rounds, Scheffler got himself back in contention on Sunday. Including getting a controversial break himself with very beneficial TIO relief after pulling his second shot on the par-5 17th left of the grandstand. But he came up just short with a disappointing 18th hole, making bogey and falling to seven under.
GOLF ANALYST BRANDEL CHAMBLEE DISGUSTINGLY BURIES BRYSON DECHAMBEAU AFTER BRITISH OPEN PENALTY
That set the stage for his post-round media availability, where, naturally, he was asked again about the DeChambeau ruling. And after all that anticipation over which side Scheffler would take, he took a little bit of both.
"All I'll say is Bryson – I've known him for a long time, and he's a lot of things, but he's definitely not a cheater," Scheffler said. "I've never seen him cheat once, whether we were having a putting contest on the putting green or chipping contest, or anytime we played amateur golf, I never saw anything suspicious."
That's a clear-cut defense of DeChambeau's integrity and commitment to following the rules. But immediately after, did say that the rules need to be more strictly enforced and that he might have been "careless" with his steps.
"When you're watching him there from that camera angle, maybe he was a touch careless around his ball, but I don't think he did anything intentionally," Scheffler explained.
"All I can really say is I think maybe we need to be a little bit more strict in the way that we are policing guys, but it's a little bit of a balance because you've got certain guys like a Bryson, who every shot he hits is going to be shown on TV. When you have camera angles that are far away, things can look different than they do when you're right there."
That's another point that several other players, including Russell Henley, brought up. Every shot DeChambeau takes is recorded by cameras, whereas players who aren't subject to that level of scrutiny might be able to get away with a bit of say, adjustment, to the conditions around them.
RORY MCILROY SHOULD BE THE LAST GOLFER TO CRITICIZE OTHERS FOR 'PERFORMATIVE' BEHAVIOR
"We've seen penalties happen with -- like you remember Jon Rahm a couple years ago at the Memorial when his ball moved in the rough, and it's like to the naked eye, can you really tell that?" Scheffler added. "I think sometimes it's just a difficult position in the game of golf."
Still, after defending DeChambeau, the world number one did say that there should be more enforcement of the "traditions" of golf and stricter policing moving forward.
"When I was growing up, like if this was the line, here are the rules and this was the right side of it and this is when you're doing things against the rule," Scheffler said. "You always tried to stray really far that way I feel like at times. Sometimes, you see players maybe push it a little bit further than they should.
