Watch Miley Cyrus’ stirring cover of Pink Floyd’s ‘Wish You Were Here’ on SNL

The pop star gave a fireside performance of the Pink Floyd song from home on this week’s ‘Saturday Night Live.’

Saturday Night Live is keeping things going despite its cast being locked down in quarantine, releasing an episode this weekend with cast members filming themselves at home.

Once you got over the strangeness of not hearing an audience laugh at the jokes, the episode was actually pretty strong, and was highlighted by a musical performance by Miley Cyrus.

Sitting next to an open fire and lit all in red, Cyrus performed a cover of Pink Floyd’s “Wish You Were Here” accompanied only by an acoustic guitar player. The result was spare, haunting, and beautiful. Cyrus didn’t try to over-sing the thing, blessedly, letting the song speak for itself.

The Charles Schwab Challenge is expected to be the first event back on the PGA Tour calendar in 2020. The Tour announced Thursday the latest schedule changes which includes restarting the season June 11-14 with the Charles Schwab Challenge at Colonial Country Club. No fans will be allowed at the Tour’s first four events. The revised tour schedule can be seen on our website.

On SiriusXM PGA Tour radio this week, PGA of America CEO Seth Waugh said the PGA Championship is still on for August at TPC Harding Park, but he admitted the location could change if necessary.

The European Tour may cut prize money, stage two events a week and require 14-day quarantines once golf returns in order to complete the season. The European Tour schedule has postponed 11 events so far in 2020.

To hear the story of golf prodigies and sisters Amelie and Alexandra Phung who are our Heroes of the Week, watch the latest episode of Golfweek Rewind, featured above.

Good dogs competing for a chew toy is the newest must-watch quarantine sport

The announcer is what makes this video so good.

Listen, I’m not going to pretend this video is anything other than what it is: Two dogs sitting down next to one another, with one dog eyeing the other’s chew toy.

But the commentary, soothing and intelligent, funny and spot on, makes the whole thing. One of those videos you need the sound on.

Will this video make you smarter, or offer you a more enriching view of the world? Probably not. It’s dogs competing slowly for a chew toy. But listen, we all need ways to get through the day, and this is as good a way as any.

Relive the Nationals’ first World Series win over the Houston Astros

No sports on to watch? Let’s look back then, and watch some of the best moments of the Nationals’ run to a title.

So we don’t have a ton of sports on right now. That’s OK. That’s fine. We always have sports in the past to watch, and hey, while we may know the outcome, they’re still fun to re-live.

Today we’ve got a video that collected some of the best highlights from the Washington Nationals’ improbable World Series win over the Houston Astros, they of the cheating scandal.

If you’re a Nats fan, you’ll get to take in all the delightful weirdness of that series, especially with every away team winning all seven games. Throw in some Juan Soto magic and some Anthony Rendon dingers, you’ll love getting back into the games.

Remembering when Michael Jordan broke the record for most consecutive games in double figures

Watch a video and relive when Michael Jordan broke the record for most consecutive games scoring in double figures.

Here in the time of coronavirus we don’t have much in the way of current sports to watch. (UFC 249 was just canceled, and unless you’re into Belarusian pro soccer, there’s not much else going on.)

So we’re going back and reliving some classic moments in sports history. Why not? Better to go back and have some fun with older sports moments than the nothing burger that is going on now.

So, how about some old Michael Jordan highlights? STN put together this video which shows a major Jordan milestone, the game when he eclipsed the NBA record for most consecutive games in double digit scoring.

Watch it now:

One lonely broadcaster made an entire ‘One Shining Moment’ March Madness highlight film by himself

He plays all the characters. There are inspirational speeches. This must have taken SO much time.

Many of us are looking to fill the hours during quarantine for the coronavirus, and some of us are more creative than others.

One of those extremely creative people is braodcaster Brandon Gaudin, who took his quarantine isolation time and went and filmed a whole dang “One Shining Moment” highlight reel tribute to a March Madness tournament that never existed.

Well it did exist, in Gaudin’s imagination.

Via the Lansing State Journal:

Brandon Gaudin, who has voiced national sports broadcasts for FOX, the Big Ten Network and Westwood One, created an homage to the finale March Madness classic, “One Shining Moment.”

We’ve seen some goofy “One Shining Moment” tributes so far this quarantine, but Gaudin goes above and beyond. He has shirts from so many schools. He portrays coaches and announcers, players and team managers. He has multiple sets, action shots, hype-up montages, and more. It’s all there.

Watch and behold:

Well done, Mr. Gaudin. Thank you for spending way too much time on this.
