Exclusive: Jordyn Woods breaks down her game day style formula appeared first on ClutchPoints. Add ClutchPoints as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
Jordyn Woods has the most authentic way of previewing her game day fits.
Woods, who is a model and entrepreneur, is often seen supporting her husband, Karl-Anthony Towns, courtside at the New York Knicks games and is always creating a moment with her outfit choices. She exclusively spoke to ClutchPoints about the method behind her madness when creating a look.
"I wish I could say there was a crazy process, but it really just depends on how I'm
feeling on that day or that moment," Woods exclusively shared about her game day outfit process via her partnership with Walgreens. "Or if I got something I'm really excited to wear, I kind of just make an outfit around that. Like if I just got this jacket and I want to wear it, I'm like, 'Okay, 30 minutes before I have to leave, I'm piecing it together.'"

The Charlotte Hornets announced on Thursday that forward Kon Knueppel has been ****** igned to the team's G League affiliate in Greensboro, North Carolina for Thursday's practice.
Though Knueppel is still listed as out for Friday's matchup at the Washington Wizards, being ****** igned to practice with the Greensboro Storm is an encouraging sign that the second-year sharpshooter is nearing a return after missing the Hornets' first five games of the season with a strained left hamstring.
Friday's game is the first of a back-to-back for Charlotte, who hosts the Philadelphia 76ers on Saturday. So perhaps the team is waiting to play him at home or maybe his season debut will be Monday versus the Detroit Pistons.
Knueppel, 21, suffered the injury just over a month ago during what the Hornets termed "offseason on-court activity." This occurred shortly before NBA teams reported for training camp, which Knueppel missed due to the hamstring strain along with the entire preseason.
Last season, Knueppel finished second in NBA Rookie of the Year balloting after challenging 2025 No. 1 overall pick and eventual winner Cooper Flagg by averaging 18.5 points, 5.3 rebounds and 3.4 ****** ists. Selected No. 4 overall out of Duke in the 2025 NBA Draft, he led the league by making 273 3-pointers, shooting 43% on 673 attempts.

Analicia "Ana Montana" Chaves, the model who is partner to NBA star LaMelo Ball and the mother of his son LaOne, has been arrested for an alleged scheme to get a phony prescription for alprazolam, the generic form of Xanax.
Chaves was taken into custody in Mecklenburg County, North Carolina on Monday (Sept. 28) and released that same day on a $10,000 bond. She faces two felony counts of obtaining a controlled substance by fraud or forgery, and two misdemeanor counts of simple possession of a Schedule IV controlled substance.

Chaves, 36, is accused of going to a Walgreens this past February to fill a prescription "that was prescribed by doctor whose DEA registration and NPI number had been stolen/fraudulently obtained," per court records seen by Complex. A warrant for her arrest was issued on Sept. 22, almost a week before she was taken into custody.

A quiet pub lunch for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle has created considerably more noise online. The Duke and ****** ss of Sussex were photographed holding hands while walking to a historic Cotswolds pub during their latest stay in Britain. Although the couple reportedly behaved like ordinary customers once inside, their photographed arrival quickly became the focus of a heated debate. Critics accused the Sussexes of importing a "Hollywood circus" into the picturesque English countryside, while others questioned why two private citizens grabbing lunch had become news at all.
ZUMAPRESS.com / MEGA
Harry and Meghan were photographed heading to The Falkland Arms in Great Tew, Oxfordshire, on October 1, marking their first joint public outing in Britain since returning to the country. According to The Sun, the couple held hands as they approached the traditional 16th-century pub. Meghan wore an all-black ensemble with contrasting white shoes, while Harry dressed casually in jeans and a jacket. He completed his outfit with a Santa Barbara Fire Department baseball cap. Their children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, were reportedly at school during the outing. The couple apparently opted for hearty British dishes once inside. Meghan reportedly ordered gluten-free beer-battered haddock and chips with mushy peas and tartare sauce, while Harry selected chicken, ham and leek pie served with mashed potatoes, greens and gravy.

The cozy outing drew a considerably less welcoming response from some social-media users.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are settling into their life in the U.K.
In photos shared and published by The Sun, Harry, 42, and Meghan, 45, were seen holding hands as they made their way to lunch at a pub in the Cotswolds called The Falkland Arms.
The Sussexes were dressed down for the occasion, with Meghan opting for an all-black look in a sweater and jeans, which she paired with white sneakers. Harry, meanwhile, wore a light puffer jacket, gray T-shirt and jeans, completing the outfit with a pair of sneakers and a Santa Barbara fire department baseball cap, a nod to their former U.S. home.
The pair each sported sunglasses, keeping a relatively low profile as they were seen looking at a menu board outside the 16th-century pub in Great Tew, Oxfordshire.
According to the outlet, Meghan ate gluten-free beer-battered haddock and chips with mushy peas and tartar sauce, while Harry enjoyed a chicken, ham and leek pie with seasonal greens, creamy mashed potatoes and gravy.

For decades, CVS seemed like the perfect business. It was convenient, sold a mix of products people wanted, and everyone was forced to go there (or to one of its rivals) when they needed to pick up a prescription.
Now, however, the company has been fighting a war on many fronts. Consumers can order much of what made the chain convenient for delivery, and various online services, including Amazon, now fill prescriptions.
"At the rear of the store, business at pharmacy counters is being squeezed by stingier drug reimbursement rates and pharmacist wages. In the aisles, sales of everything from greeting cards to cosmetics are feeling the effects of cut-price competition," according to the Financial Times.
It's an evolving situation that has caused CVS rival Rite Aid to shut down all its stores, while CVS and Walgreens have closed thousands of locations between them.
"The whole drugstore four-wall economic model is collapsing on itself, in my opinion," said Josh ****** s, a portfolio manager at Janus Henderson Investors, told the Financial Times.

Red Sox OF Ceddanne Rafaela predicted to win MLB award despite IL news originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
The Boston Red Sox have bounced back from a bad start and look likely to make the MLB postseason. With a strong pitching staff in the rotation and bullpen, plus a resurgent offense, this team can go very far.
But it's not just those phases of the game where the Red Sox have thrived. Boston has also gotten plenty of great value from their defense. More specifically, from a few select defenders, one of which being center fielder Ceddanne Rafaela.
Unfortunately, he recently hit the injured list for the Red Sox and will miss some time. However, that shouldn't stop him from winning an MLB award. As MLB.com's Jared Greenspan, Brian Murphy, and Jason Foster predict, Rafaela should be the AL's Gold Glove-winning center fielder.
"When healthy, there's no one better at that spot in the junior circuit. Rafaela, a first-time Gold Glove Award winner last season, has made the most five-star catches of any player in the Majors (nine)," the MLB.com trio write.

BERLIN, Sept 7 (Reuters) - Mamad Mohamad watched with mixed emotions as the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) swept to a historic victory on Sunday evening in the eastern state of Saxony-Anhalt.
A member of the Greens, the 46-year-old ‌is set to become one of the first lawmakers with an immigrant background to enter the state parliament, alongside Mustafa ‌Groener of the Left (Die Linke) party.
For Mohamad, who arrived in Germany from Syria as a 16-year-old Yazidi Kurd in 1996, it was a milestone that should have been a moment of celebration. Instead, he described it as a "poisoned victory".
"My heart was split," Mohamad said, recalling the first projections that showed the AfD outperforming expectations while Chancellor Friedrich Merz's governing conservatives slumped to a historic low.

Jacksonville Beach native Miles Russell seemingly has his singles match and possibly a U.S. draw in the Walker Cup in hand with two holes to play against Connor Graham of Scotland on Sept. 6, at the Lahinch Golf Club in Ireland.
Graham, a junior at Texas Tech and a first-team All-Big 12 player last year, had other ideas.
Graham birdied the last two holes while the 17-year-old Russell, playing in his first Walker Cup, went bogey-par. The ensuing halve opened the door for Josh Hill to beat Russell's doubles partner Tyler Watts 1-up with an up-and-down from a greenside bunker and clinch the Cup for Great Britain/Ireland,13.5-12.5 victory.
The victory ended a five-match winning streak for the Americans. GB/I won seven of the 10 singles matches to rally from a three-point deficit after the Americans swept the morning foursomes.
Had Russell pulled out the victory, the U.S. would have at least retained the Walker Cup with a 13-13 tie. If Watts had won his match, the U.S. would have won outright.

COUNTY CLARE, Ireland (AP) — British Amateur champion Stuart Grehan didn't flinch when he was 3 down after three holes against the No. 1 amateur in golf. The Irishman rallied to beat Preston Stout on the 18th hole Saturday as Great Britain and Ireland took a one-point lead over the Americans in the Walker Cup.
Luke Poulter of England held off 17-year-old Miles Russell in the last singles match on the course, giving GB&I a 6 1/2-5 1/2 lead going into the final day at Lahinch as it tries to beat the Americans for the first time since 2015.
GB&I had a three-point lead after the opening day its last time on home soil, in 2023 at St. Andrews, only for the Americans to win 10 of the 14 matches on Sunday. The Americans had a one-point lead last year at Cypress Point and lost only one of the 10 singles matches in a 17-9 win.
"We're ahead, but we need to reset for tomorrow," said Poulter, the son of Ryder Cup stalwart Ian Poulter and a senior at Florida. He turned the match in his favor with a 15-foot birdie putt on the 15th hole and a stellar up-and-down on the par-3 16th.
The crowd created a big atmosphere as it walked the fairways behind matches and surrounded the greens on the fabled links along the Atlantic coast in the west of Ireland.

Several of architect David McLay Kidd's most popular courses have focused on extreme and creative playability, with Gamble Sands in Washington and Mammoth Dunes at Sand Valley in Wisconsin as prime examples. Even his first-ever design, the original Bandon Dunes layout at the famed resort of the same name in Oregon, put playability at the forefront.
Kidd had a few deviations from the playability theme in his career, but in recent years he has talked at length about designing courses that are approachable for any level of golfer. The trick, he has said, is to challenge the best players while allowing less-skilled golfers to keep swinging.
Consider that challenge accepted at Bone Valley in Florida, his latest completed creation that will open in late September for preview play at the well-regarded Streamsong Resort. Built with an appreciation of the resort's other courses and with those layouts' DNA in mind, Kidd has constructed a new, full-sized 18 that offers ample width and plenty of opportunities to bounce **** into greens – those are keys to playability for less-skilled players.
But just as megalodon shark teeth can be found in the sand piles left over from the site's history as a phosphate mining operation, Bone Valley can offer a bit of a bite. Stray too far from the best scoring lines, and even the best players will struggle with the angles as they attempt to set up birdie putts.
"My team and I felt like we got to build something really, really fun both visually, strategically, creatively," Kidd said. "I think golfers, when they come here, won't be disappointed. I think they'll have a blast trying to figure out how to navigate their way through. I think every hole has a dozen different attacks you could make, a thousand different ways you could recover from error. It's not overly penal, but she is going to put up a fight against scoring. I think I've been able to refine that over the last dozen years or so."

The Lady Pirates' soccer team got to play in front of the home crowd Monday and Greensburg made it well worth the price of admission.
Greensburg scored six goals in the first half and another three goals in the second half to knock off Knightstown 9-0.
Kadence Rich led the offense with five goals. Maria Scholle was right behind her teammate with four goals.
Scholle dished out three ******* ists in the contest. Rich added a pair of ******* ists. Mackenzie Schwering and Chloe Wentzel both had one ******* ist.
Greensburg's offensive pressure allotted the Lady Pirates with 41 shots on goal. Scholle and Rich both had 11 shots on goal. Kelsey Wentzel added eight followed by Emma Kennelly six, Alexis Weber two, Rachel Lipps one, Lilian Faris one and Chloe Wentzel one.

One of the hardest things to do for players on the PGA Tour is work to improve their game while trying to win every week against the best players in the world. But now, with the 2026 PGA Tour season concluded, Golfweek is taking a statistical look to see which players improved the most in key areas of the game, year over year. The first part of the series (PGA Tour most improved in 2026: Driving distance, strokes gained off tee) can be found here.
In his 2014 book "Every Shot Counts: Using the Revolutionary Strokes Gained Approach to Improve Your Golf Performance and Strategy," Columbia professor Dr. Mark Brodie dispelled the longstanding myth that pros "Drive for show and putt for dough."
What Brodie's research found was that the golfers who are consistently contending for wins on the PGA Tour and who earn the most money tend to be players who are elite **** trikers because they avoid making big numbers and get more chances to score birdies.
Making more putts combines improving in three skills: reading greens, judging the ideal speed and making a repeatable, high-quality putting stroke. As any golfer at any level will tell you, getting better at putting is hard, but the players in the table below did it better than anyone on the PGA Tour last season.
While there are several other putting stats that are tracked by the PGA Tour, Strokes Gained: Putting is the most accurate **** sment of a golfer's putting performance because it isolates putting. Counting stats, like three-putt avoidance as an example, inherently include other aspects of a player's game.

It's Week 0 for college football, with Morgan State set to visit North Carolina A&T in a season opener matching teams looking for an upward trajectory in 2026.
The Aggies are coming off a 2-10 campaign, while the Bears went 4-7 a year ago, but a new year brings a fresh slate and each will look to start on a positive note.
The player to watch Saturday will be Morgan State quarterback Cameron Edge, who played three years at Maryland and spent last season at Eastern Michigan but did not see action. On the opposite side, the Aggies' star is receiver and punt returner Elijah Kennedy, a preseason HBCU All-American.
It should be a good one from Greensboro. Here's how to watch all the action.

On August 17, 2026, OceanaGold Corporation (NYSE:OGC) agreed to acquire Australian gold developer Ausgold for about A$776 million, roughly $549 million. It gives OceanaGold ownership of the Katanning Gold Project in Western Australia and marks its first acquisition in Australia.
OceanaGold is paying a real premium for a development-stage gold project years away from production, expanding into a new country for the first time. So does Katanning give OceanaGold a genuinely valuable growth ***** et, or is this an expensive bet on a mine that won't produce gold until 2029 at the earliest?
Image by Csaba Nagy from Pixabay
CEO Gerard Bond called Katanning "an advanced, high-quality, low-capital, open-pit development ***** et" that fits naturally alongside OceanaGold Corporation (NYSE:OGC)'s existing operations in the US, New Zealand, and the Philippines. Ausgold holds more than 3,000 square kilometers of largely underexplored land across the Katanning greenstone belt, giving OceanaGold real exploration upside. The company said the deal should be accretive to net ***** et value, cash flow, and earnings per share once Katanning reaches commercial production.
First gold production isn't expected until 2029. It means OceanaGold Corporation (NYSE:OGC) commits real capital years before the ***** et generates revenue, and Ausgold holders will own 6% to 8% of the combined company, diluting existing OceanaGold shareholders. OceanaGold also had to extend a A$20 million bridge loan to Ausgold just to fund its operations before the deal even closes.

GREENSBORO, N.C. — After a blowout win on Wednesday night, Hub City could not follow up against Greensboro on Thursday. The Grasshoppers (75-48, 34-23) attacked the Spartanburgers (56-67, 22-35) early en route to an 11-4 win.
Greensboro turned to lefty Reinold Navarro on the mound against Hub City's Jormy Nivar, making his High-A debut. Both starters faced the minimum in the first before finding trouble in the second.
Maxton Martin reached to kick off the frame on a dropped third strike. Quincy Scott immediately capitalized with a two-run homer the opposite way. Navarro worked around two walks later in the inning to limit the damage to two. The Grasshoppers immediately tied the game again on back-to-back home runs from Jared Jones and Tony Blanco Jr. to lead off the bottom of the second. Blanco was batting out of order when he slugged the second home run, but it came without appeal from the Spartanburgers. Jhonny Severino then struck out, a spot later than **** igned.
After a scoreless top of the third, Greensboro took its first lead. A single and hit batter started the inning. After two outs from Nivar (L, 0-1), Jones walked to load the bases. Severino came to the plate in the correct order and lined in two runs with a single to center field. Blanco followed suit with an RBI single to make it 5-2 Grasshoppers. Anthony Susac relieved Nivar and provided the final out of the third.
Hub City forced Greensboro to its 'pen with the bases full and one out in the fourth. Cesar Aquino entered and rolled a fielder's choice off the bat of Evan Morrison to bring in a run. Gleider Figuereo added another tally with an RBI single to make it 5-4.

Noted golf architect Tom Fazio, whose courses have a weighty presence on various Golfweek's Best course rankings lists, has signed on for something new. He will join forces with CityGolf USA to design eight indoor golf courses, starting with a new Nashville facility that will open in the winter of 2026 and that combines simulator golf with real greens and surrounds built with artificial turf.
CityGolf USA will use simulators to take players from tee to green, at which point the simulator screen will be lifted to reveal a green complex with the artificial turf. If it all sounds familiar, it's similar to what the TGL indoor league has built at Palm Beach State College in Florida, where teams of top touring professionals such as Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy play televised matches.
The first CityGolf USA location will take up 174,000 square feet at City View Building 6 in Nashville. The business will include a high-end restaurant, a bar, event ******* es, driving range bays and a short-game practice area. Fazio will design the 18-hole course in concert with Fazio Design Technologies.
"A great golf course is always accompanied by a great environment," Fazio said in a media release announcing the partnership that was released Wednesday. "FDT and CityGolf USA are committed to providing a one-of-a-kind environment and entertainment venue that is unmatched. The ability to design and create unique golf courses for CityGolf USA has been seamless, and we look forward to people all over the United States having the opportunity to play them."
Gavin Fazio, Tom's son, is founder of Fazio Design Technologies and president of Fazio Design, the firm that focuses on actual course design.

Investors know that most dividend stocks dish out their payments on a quarterly basis. That's not a regulatory requirement, though.

If you're not familiar with it, like all other real estate investment trusts -- or REITs -- this one owns revenue-bearing real estate. However, even by REIT standards, Realty Income is unique. It specializes in serving as a landlord to the brick-and-mortar retailing industry. Its top tenants include Dollar General, Walgreens, and 7-Eleven.
The industry focus clearly works, too. Not only has the company paid a monthly dividend like clockwork for decades, but it has also raised its per-share payment for 31 consecutive years. Indeed, it's raised its dividend every quarter for almost 29 years.

The 2026 college football season begins this Saturday with an eight-game Week Zero. That leaves just under two weeks before most programs kick off their seasons. Several teams and their head coaches named their starting quarterbacks on Monday in preparation for Week 1.
Alabama named Keelon Russell its starter on Saturday, while other prominent QB competitions at Clemson, West Virginia, Vanderbilt and Iowa still haven't been decided — at least publicly.
Here are several of the QBs who have been named starters for the season.
The Volunteers are making true freshman Faizon Brandon their starting QB. Head coach Josh Heupel told the team of his decision on Monday morning and officially announced Brandon as the starter in an afternoon press conference.
Brandon, 6-foot-4, beat out sophomore George MacIntyre for the position, clinching the decision with his performance in a scrimmage on Saturday, according to On3. A five-star recruit, Rivals ranked Brandon as the No. 3 QB nationally and No. 10 player overall out of Grimsley High School in Greensboro, North Carolina.

Rory McIlroy fired an impressive six-under par 64 to headline a five-way tie for the lead on Thursday at the BMW Championship, the second event of the PGA Tour's FedEx Cup playoffs.
It was a welcome return to form for second-ranked McIlroy, who admitted he felt "lost" in a 66th-place finish at the St. Jude Championship in Memphis last week -- his first start since he finished tied for 40th in the Open Championship.
The six-time major champion was tied for the lead Thursday at Bellerive Country Club in St. Louis, Missouri, with a trio of US Open winners -- Gary Woodland, Wyndham Clark and JJ Spaun -- and Chris Gotterup.
World number one Scottie Scheffler, who was at his imperious best on the way to victory in Memphis last week, was meanwhile far from the logjam at the top.
Scheffler hit just six of 14 fairways and 11 of 18 greens in regulation on the way to a two-over par 72 that featured five bogeys and left him tied for 44th -- just one stroke better than the last-placed trio in the field of 50.

There's a lot more green at the University of Michigan Golf Course. All 18 greens at the storied course, located directly across the street from Michigan Stadium, are on the road to recovery after vandals allegedly damaged them in mid-July.
The greens at UM Golf Course were left discolored by an act of alleged "foul play" last month, forcing the grounds crew to resod the collars on all 18 holes. The course closed down the greens a few at a time. UM Golf Course told members this week that it used the incident as an opportunity to restore three of the greens to their original sizes.
UM Golf Course recently showed off before and after pictures on its Instagram.
UM Golf Course added a note that read: "RESILIENCE: the ability to withstand and bounce back from adversity. A lot of hard work, care, and determination from our team have got us to this point 4 weeks later. The work isn't done, but we're proud of the progress and grateful to everyone who has helped us get here."
UM's police department continues to investigate the incident. Anyone with information related to the incident is asked to contact UM's police department at (734) 763-1131.

It's been busy in Chapel Hill this past week as students have been moving in on and off campus, and the First Day of Class is set for tomorrow. It looks like those classes will include a native of Mali who Michael Malone has high hopes for in terms of much-needed front court depth.
On Saturday, Inside Carolina's Sherrell McMillan had the major scoop that Sayon Keita had obtained his visa to come to the United States, and with that he should be on the ground in time to attend classes this week. That means he should be eligible to play when the 2026-27 basketball season tips off.
It will be interesting to see just how quickly Keita can get up to speed, as the rest of the the first team ***** embled by Malone — sans Cameron Fens — have been able to have informal practices together, allowing them to start to learn how to play together. Keita will be behind in that aspect, and fans will undoubtedly remember how much another late arrival in Luka Bogavac struggled. That Keita plays a different position and is younger might actually help him adjust quicker.
The news means that Malone will now have depth — albeit untested at a high-major college level — in the front court which was considered the major hole of the first ***** embled team. Another international transfer, Alex Samodurov, should also see minutes along with Fens — presuming Fens' ability to play isn't wiped out on appeal to higher courts.
With classes starting and the first public game for the Tar Heels less than two months away, the pressure will be on for Malone's inaugural Tar Heel squad to gel quickly and cohesively. The team is already staring at an announced non-conference schedule of Georgia, Marshall, West Virginia, Arkansas, Butler, Georgetown, Kentucky, and Illinois. Rumors are also out that another major non-conference game will be announced this week, also to be played in Greensboro.

MEMPHIS, Tenn. – There are no guarantees in golf and Scottie Scheffler's season, while insanely consistent, is a testament to how fickle the ancient game can be even for those at the very top of the competitive pyramid.
But even with the vagaries of golf, there was a competitive shudder when Scheffler maintained his two-shot lead at the FedEx St. Jude Championship with a third-round 68 that wasn't as explosive as the world No. 1's 61 on Friday but came with its own share of style points.
Scheffler's patience has been tested this season by his inability to win since The American Express, which he claimed in his first start of 2026 in January. The ball-striking has remained sublime but round after round has been slowed by poor putting. But that hasn't been the case at the playoff opener, where he is third in strokes gained: putting and he needed just 26 putts on Saturday.
Unlike Friday, when he birdied six of his first seven holes, Day 3 was more of a grind on the greens for Scheffler but he was able to maintain his lead and his momentum with timely par saves from 11 and 12 feet at Nos. 3 and 15, respectively.
"Any time you're holing those kind of 10- to 15-footers, it's really nice to keep the round going. I holed a few of those today. It was definitely important to keep the momentum in the round going," Scheffler said. "[No. 3 is a] reachable par-5, a hole where you think you're going to be able to give yourself a look for birdie at the worst. Kind of made a mess of the hole and was able to hole a nice putt there for par."
