A young busker said he struggled to keep it secret he was going to play on stage with Sam Fender. Joe Bartley often plays his guitar outside St James' Park before Newcastle United home games, but on Thursday he got the chance to perform inside during the star's opening night.

Burns, statistically the world's best putter, hooped a clutch par save to shoot 65 Friday at Oakmont and enter this U.S. Open weekend at 3 under.
