Sports Update

This is going to be a quick post, as I've been busy with my sister's graduation and other things. But basically, this is what you have to know:

1. The Boston Celtics took a 3-1 lead over the Los Angeles Lakers in stunning fashion on Thursday night, coming back from a 24-point deficit to win the game (the largest comeback in NBA Finals history).

2. Golf's U.S. Open began on Thursday and continued today, as Tiger Woods, Phil Mickelson, and Adam Scott (the #1, #2, and #3 ranked golfers in the world) teed off in the same group. At the end of Friday's round, Stuart Appleby lead the tournament with a score of 3-strokes-under-par, while Tiger (fresh off of knee surgery) remains in the hunt at 2-strokes-under-par. Tournament play will continue into the weekend and the final round will be on Sunday.

3. What to look forward to this weekend: Game 5 of the NBA Finals, the final two rounds of the U.S. Open, and lots of Euro 2008 (soccer)!

Stay tuned for a longer post on Sunday, which will probably include some information on the winner of the U.S. Open and possibly the winners of the NBA Finals and some Euro 2008 action. Until then, watch one of the greatest golf shots of all time:
