Photo by Brenton Edwards / AFP via Getty ImagesWhen LIV Golf emerged onto the professional golf scene back in June 2022 they managed to poach numerous big-name players from the PGA Tour.Bryson DeChambeau, Jon Rahm, Dustin Johnson, Phil Mickelson and Brooks Koepka were among the biggest stars to jump ship from the PGA Tour.LIV Golf offered those players huge signing-on fees in order to tempt them into joining the league.However, LIV Golf has never managed to achieve what it set out to do in the first place become the biggest and most powerful professional golf tour on the planet.Photo by Sarah Reed/Getty ImagesLIV now faces an extremely uncertain future. Even if LIV Golf does somehow survive post the end of the current season, the league will operate on a vastly reduced scale moving forward.That includes the schedule itself and, of course, the finances involved with the league.The top five earners on LIV Golf since it startedDespite the fact that LIV Golf has failed to establish itself as a direct rival to the PGA Tour, those who decided to join have been made extremely wealthy.We are talking about generational wealth, but which players have been the highest earners since LIV Golf started in 2022?Jon Rahm $96,408,875Rahm, 31, has racked up four LIV Golf wins since joining the league from the PGA Tour in December 2023.He has been incredibly consistent, winning the individual LIV Golf title three years in a row.The Spaniard is believed to have received a signing-on fee worth in excess of 500 million to join LIV Golf two-and-a-half years ago and he is comfortably one of the highest paid athletes worldwide.Joaquin Niemann $81,070,796Niemann has been one of the standout players on LIV Golf over the past few years.Photo by Richard Heathcote/Getty ImagesThe 27-year-old has won an incredible nine times on LIV Golf since February 2024 and its fair to argue that he has actually been the leagues best player since he joined in August 2022.Talor Gooch $74,282,278The American is perhaps one of the biggest surprise names on the list of LIV Golfs top earners.However, his record on LIV Golf has been stellar, with four wins to his name since he joined the league in 2022.LIV Golf stars have secured their financial futuresDustin Johnson $64,575,695Johnson, 42, has won three times on LIV Golf since joining the league in 2022.When Johnson made the move to LIV, he was unquestionably one of the best players in the world.His game has undoubtedly regressed over the past few years, but his bank balance has grown exponentially.Bryson DeChambeau $61,098,905The fact that DeChambeau is only in fifth place on the highest earners list is perhaps the biggest surprise of all.The 32-year-old from Dallas is one of the biggest stars in the entire professional game, if not the biggest star.He has won five times on LIV Golf since jumping ship from the PGA Tour and, given his talent, its fair to suggest that he perhaps should have more victories to his name.While the vast majority of LIV Golf players may have tainted their legacies by joining the league, they have undoubtedly secured their financial futures, and the many generations of their families who follow them.And for that reason, they surely cannot be criticized.

Paul Skenes was originally scheduled to pitch Sundays series finale against the Red Sox, but the Pirates are pushing his start by three days. The right-hander will now pitch Wednesdays game against the Tigers in Pittsburgh.The decision to push his start back by three days is not injury-related.Just giving Paul more rest. He was ready to go. Feel like it will give him a few more days to recover, said manager Don Kelly, who announced the decision after Saturdays loss to Boston. As we go through that, give other guys on the backside and extra day, as well.Skenes last pitched on Tuesday in Miami, when he was pulled after only throwing 65 pitches through five innings. He went through his normal recovery and threw a bullpen at PNC Park on Friday before he was informed of the decision.

Reese penalty seals Wolfsburg victory in Niedersachsen derbyVfL Wolfsburg went into the Niedersachsen derby against Hannover 96 as clear favourites. With their squad quality and financial resources, the Wolves are expected to be among the strongest teams in the 2. Bundesliga this season. But, much like on the opening matchday, it was their opponents who looked like the better team on the pitch.Hannover dominated the first half and created the more dangerous opportunities. The hosts repeatedly tested Wolfsburg goalkeeper Jakub Zieliski from distance, while the visitors struggled to impose themselves on the game.Wolfsburg were not completely without chances, though. New signing Muhammed Damar was particularly active and created some promising situations for the visitors, but neither side managed to break the deadlock before the break.The second half followed a similar pattern. Hannover continued to look more threatening, while the intensity increased in the challenges as the derby became increasingly physical.The hosts came closest when substitute Benedikt Pichler found himself with the best chance of the match. However, he could not convert, leaving Hannover to rue another missed opportunity.And then came the moment that changed everything.With just five minutes remaining, Wolfsburg were awarded a penalty after Kumbedi was held inside the Hannover penalty area. New signing Fabian Reese stepped up and made no mistake, calmly sending the ball into the bottom-right corner from his perspective.It was Wolfsburgs first goal of the season - and it was enough to secure their first victory in the 2026/27 campaign.Hannover had arguably been the better side for most of the afternoon, but Wolfsburg leave with all three points. The visitors showed the efficiency expected from a team with promotion ambitions, while Hannover will be left wondering how they failed to get anything from a game they largely controlled.Final result: Hannover 96 0-1 VfL Wolfsburg. Fabian Reeses late penalty decides the Niedersachsen derby and gives Wolfsburg their first win of the season.

San Diego Padres center fielderJackson Merrill earned himself an additional $5 million with his 500th plate appearance on Friday.The 2026 milestone kicked in a clause in Merrill's contract that adds an $1 million to his salary for five years, increasing the total value of his contract from $135 million to a minimum of $140 million. Merrill signed a nine-year extension with the Padres early in 2025 after just one year in the majors, finishing runner-up in the 2024 NL Rookie of the Year voting, also finishing ninth in MVP voting as a 21-year-old. Now 23, Merrill has come alive after a disappointing first half, batting .333 with a 1.014 OPS in 27 games since the All-Star break. He hit nine home runs in that stretch after 10 in his first 93 games of the season.Nightengale's Notebook: Latest MLB rumorsThis article originally appeared on USA TODAY: Padres player earns $5 million with his 500th plate appearance
