Deadspin | Fans vote TE Rob Gronkowski into Patriots’ Hall of Fame Friday, January 15, 2016 Foxboro, MA The Providence Journal/Bob Breidenbach New England Patriots host the Kansas City Chiefs in an AFC Divisional Playoff at Gillette Stadium. Patriots tight end #87 Rob Gronkowski gains yards after a catch in the 1st half. The Providence Journal/Bob Breidenbach New England fans voted tight end Rob Gronkowski into the Patriots Hall of Fame, the team announced Wednesday. Gronkowski, 36, will become the 38th inductee. The date of the induction ceremony will be announced after the 2026 NFL schedule is released. “Gronk” was a three-time Super Bowl champion, four-time All-Pro and five-time Pro Bowl selection in nine seasons with the Patriots from 2010-18. He added a fourth Super Bowl ring alongside ex-Patriots quarterback Tom Brady with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the 2020 season. “Rob Gronkowski’s performance on the field was extraordinary, but it was his infectious energy and consistently positive presence that truly set him apart,” said Patriots chairman and CEO Robert Kraft. “He always brightened everyone’s day. He earned the respect of coaches and teammates through his work ethic, preparation and unselfish approach, while redefining what it meant to play his position. Rob became a fan favorite almost immediately and remained the standard at tight end for nearly a decade. We look forward to celebrating his induction into the Patriots Hall of Fame and, in time, the Pro Football Hall of Fame.” Gronkowski’s name will appear on the ballot for the first time in the next voting cycle to determine the Class of 2027 at the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton, Ohio. The Patriots drafted Gronkowski in the second round in 2010. He recorded a career-high 1,327 receiving yards and led the NFL with 17 touchdown receptions in his second season in 2011. In 115 games with New England, he caught 521 passes for 7,861 yards and 79 touchdowns. He added 81 catches for 1,163 yards and 12 scores in 16 postseason contests with the Patriots. –Field Level Media #Deadspin #Fans #vote #Rob #Gronkowski #Patriots #Hall #Fame

Deadspin | Scottie Scheffler in driver’s seat for Cadillac Championship Apr 18, 2026; Hilton Head, South Carolina, USA; Scottie Scheffler eyes his line on 17 during the third round of the RBC Heritage golf tournament. Mandatory Credit: Jim Dedmon-Imagn Images Scottie Scheffler revved up for this week’s Cadillac Championship by playing in a pro-am group with Formula 1 drivers Valtteri Bottas and Sergio “Checo” Perez. “It was fun. I got to talk with Checo a little bit about some different stuff, and kind of how they prepare for events,” Scheffler said. “I’m not — I don’t know a ton about the Formula 1 — but it was really interesting to hear things from his perspective about how he prepares for events, and what the week looks like for them.” Scheffler is in the driver’s seat as the fifth Signature Event of the 2026 PGA Tour season begins on Thursday at Trump National Doral’s fabled Blue Monster Course in Miami. Doral returns to the schedule after hosting tour events for more than 50 years from 1962-2016. Scheffler, 29, who turned pro in 2018, played the nearly 7,800-yard course for the first time with nine holes Tuesday and nine more on Wednesday. “Felt like the rumors about the course were true,” he said. “It’s long, it’s difficult. Should be a good test this week.” The World No. 1 is coming off back-to-back runner-up efforts this month, following his second-place finish at the Masters with a playoff loss to Matt Fitzpatrick at the RBC Heritage. “Sometimes the bounces go your way and other times they don’t go your way and that’s not necessarily the whole gist of it,” Scheffler said of his recent run of success. “But sometimes you’re able to build some positive momentum, and I think at times in my career I’ve been able to really feed off of that.” Scheffler didn’t sound too intimidated after his first look at the Blue Monster. “This course in particular is pretty straightforward in a sense of like you can see off the tee box where you need to hit it. It’s just a matter of hitting it there time and time again,” he said. “There’s not really many tricks to this golf course. It’s just very, very difficult. It’s a flat piece of land. There’s just a lot of bunkers, a lot of water and the golf holes are long. So with that combination, it’s going to be tough.” Playing a round with the Cadillac F1 team gave Scheffler a chance to talk shop and gain insight as he seeks his 21st career PGA Tour win this week in South Florida. “When I see somebody like Checo who has made, who has had such a successful career in F1 and in his sport and made it to the top of his sport, like that’s something that’s really interesting just to talk to somebody about to see their mentality, to see how they approach things, what they do,” Scheffler said. “Like today we were talking about cardio for a bit today. Like that stuff just interests me. I like seeing what makes people tick. I like learning from them. I feel like you can be, shoot, learning all the time, no matter who it is. I think there’s always something to be learned.” –Field Level Media #Deadspin #Scottie #Scheffler #drivers #seat #Cadillac #Championship
