Johnson ESPN.com August 10, 2020 Rory McIlroy took issue with Brooks Koepka noting that Dustin Johnson had “only” won one major win when assessing his own chances at winning a third straight Wanamaker Trophy.

The Utter Failure of the Trump Administration’s Antitrust Chief By Chris Sagers Slate Magazine August 10, 2020 However little hope the election of Donald Trump left, for some antitrust watchers it hid the slimmest of silver linings: Maybe, just maybe, some thought, Trump’s criticisms of corporate power on the campaign trail (Amazon, Time Warner) were more than just attacks on his political enemies (Jeff Bezos, CNN) and would translate into meaningful enforcement of antitrust and other laws.
