Scottie Scheffler plans to make ’25 debut at Pebble Beach
Scottie Scheffler has committed to play the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am next week, his first competition in about six weeks while recovering from a puncture wound to his right hand from preparing Christmas dinner.
Scheffler had said at the start of the week the recovery was progressing well and he was eager to get back but that he wasn’t about to “rush back just to rush back.”
The AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am has the largest field (80 players) of the $20 million signature events because of the amateur component over two days at Pebble Beach and Spyglass Hill. Scheffler tied for sixth last year when it was reduced to 54 holes by raging wind and rain, along with a forecast so bad on Sunday that it led to roads being closed.
It will be his first time playing a tournament since he won the Hero World Challenge in the Bahamas for the second straight year on Dec. 8. Scheffler also teamed with Rory McIlroy on Dec. 17 in Las Vegas to win a made-for-TV match that lasted only 14 holes against LIV Golf stars Brooks Koepka and Bryson DeChambeau.
Scheffler said he typically shuts it down after the season, spending more time in the gym though still playing plenty of social golf. This time he couldn’t touch a club while letting his hand heal from surgery that removed glass from his right hand.
“It was pretty unusual for me not to be able to do much in the gym,” said Scheffler, who said he worked primarily on his lower body until his hand began to heal.
He had to miss the Sentry at Kapalua and the American Express last week in the California desert. Scheffler did not disclose a timeline for when he started hitting balls, or how much he was going to play. He is a two-time winner of the WM Phoenix Open, which is played the week after Pebble.
The tournament, which begins Thursday, will be the start of what figures to be a closely watched encore for the FedEx Cup champion. Scheffler is coming off a season in which he won nine times, including an Olympic gold medal and another Masters green jacket. He also became the first player to win the Players Championship in back-to-back years.
Also making a return at Pebble Beach is Jordan Spieth, a three-time major champion and former world No. 1 who had surgery on his left wrist after the first FedEx Cup postseason event.
Scottie Scheffler, one of the rising stars on the PGA Tour, has announced his plans to make his debut at the 2025 Pebble Beach Pro-Am. The 25-year-old golfer has been making waves on the tour with his impressive performances and is excited to showcase his skills at one of the most prestigious tournaments in the world.Scheffler, who turned professional in 2018, has quickly established himself as a force to be reckoned with on the tour. He has already notched multiple top-10 finishes and is widely regarded as one of the most promising young talents in the game.
The Pebble Beach Pro-Am is known for its stunning coastal views and challenging course, making it a favorite among both players and fans. Scheffler is looking forward to the opportunity to compete against some of the best golfers in the world on such a historic course.
With his strong work ethic and natural talent, Scheffler is sure to make a splash at Pebble Beach in 2025. Golf fans everywhere will be eagerly anticipating his debut at the tournament and watching to see how he performs on one of golf’s grandest stages.

I think it’s good for the game, I think it’s good for college football … we’re looking forward to competing against him. Obviously, his team is going to be very well prepared and, I’m sure, ready to play.”
Belichick is inheriting a North Carolina team that went 6-7 in 2024, capped by a 27-14 loss to UConn in the Fenway Bowl. Belichick is replacing former national championship-winning (at Texas) coach Mack Brown, who had two separate stints with the Tar Heels for a total record of 113-79-1.
The highly anticipated North Carolina debut of legendary coach Bill Belichick is set to kick off in prime-time on Monday night against TCU. Fans are eager to see how Belichick will fare in his first game at the helm of the Tar Heels, and the matchup against TCU promises to be a thrilling one.Belichick, known for his strategic prowess and meticulous game planning, is sure to bring a new level of intensity and discipline to the North Carolina program.

Two giant pandas are set to make their highly anticipated debut to the public at the Smithsonian National Zoo in D.C. on Friday morning.
Two giant pandas are set to make their highly anticipated debut to the public at the Smithsonian National Zoo in D.C. on Friday morning.
The pandas, Bao Li and Qing Bao, have been quarantined since they arrived in the U.S. from China in mid-October, giving the animals time to adjust to their newly renovated habitat.
Tickets to the National Zoo are free. For those who can’t say hello in person, the Giant Panda Cam is expected to relaunch Friday.
From now through Feb. 9, the zoo is celebrating the pandas’ return with events, including a screening of “Kung Fu Panda” in the Visitor Center Theater.
DC’s panda drought is over
The zoo’s previous beloved bears, Tian Tian, Mei Xiang and Xiao Qi Ji, were returned to China in November 2023.
The new bears didn’t arrive until 11 months later, causing some fear in the interim that the partnership between the two countries to exchange the animals in the name of conservation was a thing of the past.
While the wait may have felt unbearable to some, panda-lovers rejoiced at the bears’ return to D.C. in October, cheering them on as their police-escorted motorcade drove into the National Zoo on Oct. 15, 2024.
Over the last several months, the zoo has been helping Bao Li and Qing Bao get used to the smells and sounds of crowds. Part of that has involved some zoo members visiting the panda enclosure, which was renovated in their absence.
They’ve been playing in the snow and enjoying lots of bamboo, zookeepers said.
Spot the difference? How to tell the new pandas apart
The black-and-white bears can look pretty similar at first glance, but the Smithsonian Magazine has some tips for telling the new pandas apart.
Off the bat, Bao Li, a 3-year-old boy, is bigger than Qing Bao.
But here are some other key markers the magazine pointed out:
- Qing Bao has two round, dark-colored birthmarks on her left backside
- Qing Bao has fluffier cheeks than Bao Li
- Bao Li’s eye patches are wider and have pointy tips that flare out more than Qing Bao
- The black band across Bao Li’s back is thicker and down his middle; Qing Bao’s is thinner and higher
Of course, their personalities are a bit different, too. According to the Smithsonian, Bao Li is “playful” and “attention-seeking,” but Qing Bao is more reserved and independent.
Bao Li has roots in D.C. He’s the son of Bao Bao, who was born at the D.C. zoo in 2013.
A lesson in panda history
The National Zoo became the first zoo in the U.S. to take part in what’s become known as “panda diplomacy” when a pair of pandas from China arrived at the zoo in 1972.
In the decades since, the Chinese government has lent pandas to zoos worldwide.
But, in recent years, China opted to not renew some of those agreements. Pandas from D.C. and San Diego were among those to fly back to China, with no plans for new bears to return in their place.
Ultimately, China agreed to send back new pandas to California, D.C. and Spain — squashing fears about threats to panda diplomacy.

The superstar pandas traveled from China and arrived in the U.S. on Oct. 15, 2024. National Zoo members had the opportunity to see the pandas in a special preview held between Jan. 10 and Jan. 19, a period that gave the giant pandas time to acclimate to their new home.
“Bao Li and Qing Bao have already won the hearts of our staff and volunteers, and we are excited to welcome panda fans back to the Zoo — the only place in the nation where you can see giant pandas for free — and celebrate the newest chapter of our giant panda breeding and conservation program,” Brandie Smith, the John and Adrienne Mars Director of the National Zoo, said in a news release.
“They’re very active and they’re just a lot of fun and obviously super cute,” zookeeper Mariel Lally told ABC News previously about the two pandas.
The National Zoo will host a series of public events and programs celebrating the giant pandas between Jan. 25 and Feb. 9, including a Lunar New Year event. Some Washington, D.C., hotels are even offering panda-themed packages with amenities such as stuffed toy pandas, roundtrip transportation to the zoo and panda-themed beverages.
Panda enthusiasts can see the giant pandas for free at the National Zoo, the only zoo in the U.S. where visitors can see the animals free of charge.
Giant pandas Bao Li and Qing Bao, the newest residents at the National Zoo, made their highly anticipated public debut today! Visitors flocked to the panda exhibit to catch a glimpse of these adorable black and white bears as they explored their new surroundings.Bao Li and Qing Bao, both three years old, were born in China and recently arrived at the National Zoo as part of a conservation program. The pair will play a crucial role in raising awareness about the conservation efforts being made to protect these endangered animals.
The pandas wasted no time in charming visitors with their playful antics and adorable personalities. Bao Li, the more adventurous of the two, was seen climbing trees and playing with enrichment toys, while Qing Bao preferred to lounge in the sun and munch on bamboo.
The National Zoo is thrilled to welcome Bao Li and Qing Bao to their panda family and is dedicated to providing them with the highest level of care and enrichment. Be sure to stop by and say hello to these lovable pandas during your next visit to the zoo!

Keke Palmer Says World Will Be ‘Gagged’ by SZA’s Acting Debut (Exclusive)
Don’t snooze on SZA‘s big-screen debut in One of Them Days. Her costar in the comedy, Keke Palmer hails the Grammy-winning singer as a natural.
“The world is about to be just gagged,” Palmer, 31, tells PEOPLE in an interview alongside SZA, 35, and producer Issa Rae conducted in December. “Honestly, it’s so, so good. I really am just so proud of you and the movie. It’s all, to me, a match made in heaven.”
SZA admits she was nervous about adding actress to her list of talents — or, as she puts it, “scared as hell,” “terrified” and “anxious.” Still, it’s a “bucket-list” moment for her, she explains.
“I’m trying something brand new. All I can do is try my best, you know, and thank God for the opportunity and just kinda lean into and accept it as a growing experience,” says SZA. “I have tons of fears of being perceived on camera, talking, my voice [and] being next to Keke, who’s a superstar of so many multitudes.”

Palmer, who’s been in front of the camera since her child stardom days, says she and SZA first interacted over Instagram DMs (they had a “simple” back-and-forth about “girl stuff,” she says) before meeting in person at Saturday Night Live. Palmer hosted alongside SZA as the musical guest on a December 2022 episode, spawning that viral “Bad Boys” cuffing season song.
SZA says she felt Palmer was “larger-than-life, unreal and impossible” after accomplishing so many things over the course of her career. However, “then when I met her at SNL, she was so real and possible and present. So funny and enigmatic. Within three seconds of talking to her I was like, ‘Oh, s—!’ I loved it. I wanted more.”
“It’s like looking in a mirror,” adds Palmer.

Their chemistry was “good” from the get-go, says Palmer, but it only grew “stronger” the more time they spent filming together, resulting in a true friendship.
In One of Them Days, a buddy comedy set in Los Angeles, they play besties Dreux (Palmer) and Alyssa (SZA) as they scramble to get rent money by the end of the day to avoid eviction.
SZA says of her time with Palmer on set, “Every day, 12 hours of real-life conversation. It was like a crash course, like a speed date but very intense.”
“We actually liked each other. We was gonna get married at the end. I was gonna say ‘I do,’ ” adds SZA with a smile. Palmer agrees, “It was giving that.”

Insecure alum Rae, 40, who produced the film via her Hoorae Media company, says Palmer and SZA shine together, on camera and off.
“[SZA] freaking killed it, and watching Keke overextend and be like, ‘Yo, let’s go to each other’s houses. Let’s rehearse. Let’s do this.’ Watching her embrace SZA throughout the process, I was like, ‘This is something that Dreux would do for Alyssa,’ ” says Rae. “Watching [SZA] show up and be present and wanting to do the best job possible — and actually doing it — it just made sense and it all fit together.”
One of Them Days is in theaters Jan. 17.
Keke Palmer Says World Will Be ‘Gagged’ by SZA’s Acting Debut (Exclusive)Get ready, because SZA is about to take the world by storm in her upcoming acting debut, according to actress and singer Keke Palmer. In an exclusive interview with Entertainment Weekly, Palmer gushed about SZA’s talents and predicted that audiences will be “gagged” by her performance.
“SZA is a force to be reckoned with in the music industry, and now she’s bringing that same energy to the screen,” Palmer said. “I had the privilege of watching her on set, and let me tell you, she is captivating. The world is not ready for what she’s about to bring to the table.”
While details about SZA’s acting debut are still under wraps, Palmer hinted that it will be a game-changer. “SZA has a natural charisma and presence that translates effortlessly to the screen,” Palmer added. “I have no doubt that she will leave audiences speechless with her performance.”
Fans can expect to see SZA’s acting debut in the near future, and according to Palmer, it will be worth the wait. “I am so excited for everyone to see what SZA is capable of,” Palmer said. “She is a true talent, and I have no doubt that the world will be ‘gagged’ by her acting debut.”

Musical icon Kanye West is reportedly back to his roots, which he mastered long ago: music. All credits to his daughter, North West, who inspired the musical gene in him, when she asked for some beats from him.
In an unfeigned earnest note on Instagram, he revealed how she helped him get back into music. “This little girl made me love music again She asked me to make beats for her I got back on the ASR Chopped up beats for her album and chopped every beats with my bare hand for BULLY,” read his post.For the unversed, in March 2024, North announced her debut album, ‘Elementary School Dropout,’ inspired by Ye’s 2004 album ‘The College Dropout’. She attended a listening party along with her dad for his album ‘Vultures 2’, as per Forbes.
He shared a few videos and a picture of the music studio, where he is playing tunes on the keyboard. In a cozy station, the duo reveled in the musical experience. The comments under the post expressed gratitude to North for inspiring her insurmountably talented dad, saying, ‘we all say thank you north’, and ‘NORTH NOW GET HIM TO DROP THE ALBUM’.
Encouraging North for her debut, a few of them said, ‘Elementary school dropout bouta be album of the year’.
The few glimpses of his behind-the-scenes of making an album which he announced last year were enough to create an uproar amongst the fans. With the heartwarming post, he also posted two videos captioned ‘Training’, and ‘Training 2.0’, where he was seen practicing with his kid in one of them and the other one is them walking up to their table with mics and speakers.North, the 11-year-old, is seen following in the footsteps of her acclaimed dad. The comments support her, one of which said, ‘Future Legend in making.’ Others suggested she might follow the ‘family business’ that Kanye started.
Kanye West returns to music inspired by daughter North West’s debut albumIn a surprising turn of events, Kanye West has announced his return to the music scene after a hiatus, inspired by none other than his own daughter, North West. The six-year-old recently released her debut album, showcasing her impressive musical talents and creativity.

Kanye West is working with daughter North West on her debut album, ‘Elementary School Dropout’
The controversial musical legend and icon has been working with his oldest daughter on both her album and his upcoming solo musical project.
I guess we’ll soon find out how far the musical apple falls from the tree. Kanye West, the musical legend and, at times, polarizing pop culture figure, shared via his Instagram page that he has been in the lab working with his oldest daughter, North West, on a musical project.
During a listening party for Kanye West’s “Vultures 2” album in March 2024, North announced (on stage) that she was working on her own album titled, “Elementary School Dropout.” The title is, of course, a nod to her famous father’s debut work, the landmark, game-changing album, “The College Dropout.” I would assume the title is more of a play on words than a declaration that the 11-year-old will actually be removing herself from her elementary school studies, unlike her father who famously did drop out of college to pursue his musical dreams.
One could argue that Kanye’s decision worked like a gangbuster’s.
Kanye’s Instagram feed currently features five posts, four of which are black-and-white videos or photos of North working on the project. In one particular post from Jan. 21, Kanye shared a moving caption to his 20.5 million followers about how working with his daughter has impacted his own musical process.
“This little girl made me love music again. She asked me to make beats for her I got back on the ASR Chopped up beats for her album and chopped every beats with my bare hand for BULLY,” wrote Kanye.
“BULLY” is a reference to what is expected to be Kanye West’s eleventh solo studio album and a follow-up to his 2024 collaborative releases with Ty Dolla $ign, “Vultures” and “Vultures 2.” Kanye’s last solo album was 2021’s “Donda.”
In another post captioned, “Training 3,” Kanye West can be seen working directly with North on vocals for what I can only assume will be a tune on her project.
As a father, it’s heartwarming to see Kanye West finding joy in working with his daughter on music, a passion of Kanye’s that has brought him tremendous fame and fortune as well as iconic status in music. Kanye remarking that working with North has made him love music again bodes well for whatever musical releases he has coming down the pike, and with three more kids (Saint, Chicago and Psalm; all shared with ex-wife Kim Kardashian) who knows how much music this family might churn out of the next few decades. But I’m sure we’ll all be waiting to find out.
The question I’m sure that’s on everybody’s mind is this: Will Kanye appear on North’s album (outside of production)? She addressed that very question in an interview with 13-year-old Jazlyn “Jazzy” Guerra on her JazzysWorldTV Instagram account in March 2024.
“Maybe! We don’t know yet!”
Release dates for “Elementary School Dropout” and “BULLY” have yet to be announced.
Panama Jackson theGrio.com Panama Jackson is a columnist at theGrio and host of the award-winning podcast, “Dear Culture” on theGrio Black Podcast Network. He writes very Black things, drinks very brown liquors, and is pretty fly for a light guy. His biggest accomplishment to date coincides with his Blackest accomplishment to date in that he received a phone call from Oprah Winfrey after she read one of his pieces (biggest) but he didn’t answer the phone because the caller ID said “Unknown” (Blackest).
It has been reported that Kanye West is collaborating with his daughter North West on her debut album, titled ‘Elementary School Dropout’. The album is said to showcase North’s budding talent and creativity, with Kanye providing guidance and production support.North, who is only 8 years old, has already shown a passion for music and performance, often joining her father on stage during his concerts. With Kanye’s musical expertise and North’s natural talent, ‘Elementary School Dropout’ is sure to be a groundbreaking project.
Fans are eagerly anticipating the release of the album, which is rumored to feature a mix of catchy pop tunes and heartfelt ballads. Stay tuned for more updates on this exciting collaboration between father and daughter!

Kanye West Reveals How He’s Working with Daughter North on Her Debut Album
Kanye West has reemerged on Instagram — and gave fans an update on North West’s album.
On Monday, Jan. 20, the rapper, 47, shared a handful of posts on the social media platform, including one featuring his daughter, 11, whom he shares with ex Kim Kardashian, along with Saint, 9, daughter Chicago, 7, and son Psalm, 5.
This little girl made me love music again ,” Kanye began the post, sharing a black-and-white photo in the studio of his daughter in a striped sweatshirt, jorts and fur boots with a keyboard in the backdrop.
“She asked me to make beats for her I got back on the ASR Chopped up beats for her album and chopped every beats with my bare hand for BULLY,” he wrote, seemingly referring to his own album in the works, Bully.
Malik Yusef, who has collaborated with Ye, appeared to witness the sessions in acting, commenting on the post: “Yes sir, you definitely did that. I’ve been a witness seen it with my own two eyes is really good to see the young God YE doing pure magic!!!!”
Kanye also shared another black-and-white clip of North walking into the studio with WRLDFMS Tony Williams, the hip-hop star’s first cousin, alongside the caption, “TRAINING 2.0.”
Last year, North appeared on her father’ Vultures series and lent her vocals to “Talking” and V2‘s “Bomb.”
Kanye appears to be focused on the release of his next solo album, Bully, which he teased earlier this month in now-deleted Instagram posts alongside a reunion with producer Mike Dean, per Billboard.

As she stood on stage in Phoenix, North shared the special news. “I’ve been working on an album…” she said, prompting the crowd to erupt into cheers. She went on to reveal the album’s title, which is a direct reference to her dad’s 2004 album The College Dropout.
In October 2024, North opened up to Interview Magazine about how her dad is her style inspiration.
In a clip of their chat posted by her mother, 43, on her Instagram Stories, she asked North as she sat in a chair looking at the camera, “What’s your favorite style right now?”
“I like streetwear and ’90s. Tyler, the Creator; my dad; me!” North replied.
Kanye West has always been known for pushing boundaries and breaking new ground in the music industry. And now, it seems he’s passing on his musical talents to the next generation – his daughter, North.In a recent interview, Kanye revealed that he’s been working with his 7-year-old daughter on her debut album. He shared that North has shown a keen interest in music from a young age and has been experimenting with different sounds and melodies.
Kanye went on to explain that he’s been guiding North through the creative process, helping her find her own unique voice and style. He described their collaboration as a “truly special and magical experience” and expressed his excitement for the world to hear North’s music.
Fans have been eagerly anticipating North’s debut album, with many speculating that she could follow in her father’s footsteps and become a musical sensation in her own right. With Kanye’s guidance and support, it’s clear that North is in good hands as she embarks on this new musical journey.

“This collection captures that feeling with pieces that are both romantic and cute. I had an amazing time shooting this campaign, and I hope everyone feels as confident and beautiful in these pieces as I did,” she adds.

In an interview with Vogue, the K-Pop idol said she’s always been “obsessed with” everything SKIMS, particularly the Seamless collection.
“I’ve been one of those girls who have gone online on the day SKIMS says they are going to restock, and put everything in my shopping cart only to find out everything is sold out already. So yeah, I’ve been heartbroken by online shopping,” she shared (can she get any more relatable?). Although, she added that she hopes to get her hands on a few of her favorite pieces now that she’s a part of the squad.
Kardashian, the co-founder and chief creative officer of SKIMS, said of ROSÉ in a press statement: “Her elegance and energy are unmatched, she’s the ultimate Valentine for 2025. This collection is romantic, fun, and full of personality, and ROSÉ captured that beautifully.”
