Woods was notably absent from a handful of PGA Tour events in 2020, though many of the most popular events, like the Masters and the U.S. Open, have been canceled due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, anyway. It’s very possible Woods has just been waiting out the virus in self-quarantine, like so many people around the world. But there is a paper trail—or yacht trail, if you will—of exactly what Woods has been up to since he last appeared on the professional circuit....

To that end, Woods understands he must take unpleasant measures to ensure he’s ready to compete for the remaining three days of the tournament following his opening round at Augusta National.

One sticking point: Thompson’s stance on a same-sex marriage ban. On the trail, he has declined to endorse a constitutional amendment blocking gay marriage, instead backing a broader amendment that would bar states from imposing their laws on other states. “The [marriage ban] approach has been tried in Congress, but can’t even get a majority,” Thompson told the Christian Broadcasting Network. That’s not good enough for some on the right, and it has cost Thompson, at least for now, endorsements from members of the Arlington Group, an influential coalition of the nation’s top conservative leaders....

Since then, Big Abortion and its allies have been drumming up a frenzy of fear with myths, manipulation and downright lies.

Myth number one: “It’s not a child!” The science of embryology is crystal clear on the question of when life begins: at the moment of conception, also known as fertilization or sperm-egg fusion, when a completely distinct human being has come into existence with his or her own unique DNA....

At no point did he favor the right leg on which he needed surgeries on his meniscus and knee during the offseason. And that held true right up until Friday, when it was revealed that Westbrook had undergone another surgery on the knee, to repair a problem in a different area. The injury was discovered during an MRI exam after Westbrook experienced swelling in the knee. Westbrook, who posted a Christmas Day triple-double in his last game before the surgery, will miss at least 27 games and is not expected to return until after the All-Star break in February....
