Swab said the robberies also were the result of a gambling addiction.Tulsa County District Attorney Steve Kunzweiler had sought life in prison for Babudar.“He is a serial robber who traumatized these victims and numerous other victims across this country,” Kunzweiler said in a statement.Tulsa County District Judge Michelle Keely ordered Babudar’s 32-year sentence to run concurrently to his federal sentence, which means after he is released from federal prison he will be transferred to state custody to serve his remaining 14 years.Babudar developed a following on his @ChiefsAholic account on the social platform X after attending games dressed as a wolf in Chiefs gear. His avid support of the Chiefs became well known on social media.

ROME (AP) — Jannik Sinner is still regaining his focus on the tennis court after his three-month ...

ROME (AP) — Jannik Sinner is still regaining his focus on the tennis court after his three-month doping ban.The top-ranked player overcame a brief lapse during the first set of a 6-4, 6-2 victory over Dutch qualifier Jesper De Jong in his second match back on tour at the Italian Open on Monday.Sinner jumped out to a 4-1 lead but then lost his serve twice as the 93rd-ranked De Jong evened the first set at 4-4.<div class="the-score-article-ad-unit"></div>There were poor drop shots, an inopportune double fault and other errors from Sinner. But the Italian regained control in front of his home crowd with his powerful groundstrokes and big serve and extended his winning streak to 23 matches, dating back to October."I felt like I started the match very well and then I had a big drop," Sinner said. "I tried to understand what was going on. Then fortunately I broke him on 4-all again, which then gave me the confidence to continue."Sinner is into the last 16 of his first tournament since he won his third Grand Slam title at the Australian Open in January.In February, Sinner agreed to the three-month ban in a settlement with the World Anti-Doping Agency that raised some questions, since it conveniently allowed him not to miss any Grand Slams and come back at his home tournament.The Italian Open is the last big warmup before the French Open starts on May 25.Just like in his opening win over Mariano Navone on Saturday, the fans at the Foro Italico were fully behind Sinner — Italy's first No. 1.Yelling "Vai Jannik" ("Go Jannik") and singing his name, the crowd provided encouragement whenever Sinner needed it."It's good to have him back," 12th-ranked Tommy Paul said of Sinner after beating Tomas Machac 6-3, 6-7 (5), 6-4. "He's such a big figure in the sport. He kind of sets the bar right now."The last Italian man to win the Rome title was Adriano Panatta in 1976.Sinner led De Jong 22-16 in winners and had fewer unforced errors than his opponent, 16-25 — after trailing in that category against Navone.Sinner also served better, producing four aces.Sinner will next face 17th-seeded Francisco Cerundolo, who beat Austrian qualifier Sebastian Ofner 6-2, 6-4.Cerundolo is coming off a run to the Madrid Open semifinals and beat Nicolas Jarry — last year's Rome finalist — in straight sets in the opening round."Last time I played here, I lost against him here on this court," Sinner said, referring to a three-set loss to Cerundolo in the round of 16 two years ago. "It's going to be tough. For sure I have to raise my level if I want to play even. … I'm trying to understand where my game is so it's going to be a good challenge, good test for me."Sinner checks fallen opponentDe Jong fell to the clay when he lost his footing trying to reach a passing shot from Sinner in the second set and Sinner came across the net to check on him. Sinner fetched a towel for De Jong and wiped off the Dutchman’s racket handle.De Jong then needed medical attention for his right wrist before resuming play.Flyover disrupts De MinaurAlso reaching the fourth round was seventh-seeded Alex De Minaur, who beat Bolivian qualifier Hugo Dellien in a match that was interrupted twice during the first set — first when a spectator got sick and then because of a flyover by the Italian Air Force's acrobatic team.De Minaur was visibly frustrated by the flyover."I didn't handle it very well, because I got broken straight away," De Minaur said. "I did well to bounce back and get the break back, but I've got to be a little bit better mentally to not let those things, outside factors affect me."Gauff routs RaducanuIn the women's round of 16, Coco Gauff routed Emma Raducanu 6-1, 6-2 in a matchup of former U.S. Open champions.Peyton Stearns eliminated Naomi Osaka 6-4, 3-6, 7-6 (4) after 2 hours, 41 minutes. Stearns also edged Australian Open champion Madison Keys in a third-set tiebreaker in her previous match.Also, home favorite Jasmine Paolini beat 2017 French Open champion Jelena Ostapenko 7-5, 6-2 to reach the quarterfinals.___AP tennis: <a href="https://apnews.com/hub/tennis">https://apnews.com/hub/tennis</a>

CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Scottie Scheffler was among the few players to get in a little practice at Quail Hollow for the PGA Championship, arriving a day early before rain soaked the course Monday and relegated most players to the practice areas only between burst of showers.The PGA of America closed the course to spectators on the first official day of practice because of the heavy rain. They can either seek a refund or use their tickets the next two days.But one thing was clear: Quail Hollow became a little bit longer from the rain that drenched the 7,626-yard course.<div class="the-score-article-ad-unit"></div>Quail Hollow is familiar to most players in the 156-man field, hosting a PGA Tour every year since 2003 except for when it held the PGA Championship in 2017 and the Presidents Cup in 2022. Even so, it leads to a short week of practice.Sunday would have been an ideal time to see the course, but there were only a few players here.“They're all at tournaments,” said Kerry Haigh, the championships director at the PGA of America.Rory McIlroy, Justin Thomas and Xander Schauffele led a parade of stars at the signature event at Philadelphia Cricket Club, won by Sepp Straka. There also was a PGA Tour event at Myrtle Beach, which featured more than a dozen players in the field at the PGA Championship. That includes Ryan Fox, who won his first PGA Tour title that earned him a spot at Quail Hollow.Scheffler skipped the Truist Championship, typical for the world's No. 1 player because he plays the two stops near home in Dallas — the CJ Cup Byron Nelson two weeks ago, which he won by eight shots, and the Charles Schwab Challenge at Colonial next week.This is only the second time he has played Quail Hollow. The other was the Presidents Cup, when the course had a different routing. He knows the holes, just not in the right order.Scheffler played the front nine on Sunday afternoon, spending most of his time chipping around the greens as caddie Ted Scott — with a long history at Quail Hollow from when he caddied for Bubba Watson — presenting different options with different pins.The course already had received plenty of rain and was soft, particularly the fairways. Scheffler hit one drive to the left on the 530-yard, par-4 ninth and immediately said, “Give me the 5-wood.” He sometimes goes with 5-wood out of the rough.He hit another drive in the fairway. This required a big 3-iron to get near the green, an example of how much longer Quail could play.Some players tried to get on the course. Nicolai Hojgaard played the opening two holes in the rain, hit his tee shot on No. 3 and then walked over to the range.___AP golf: <a href="https://apnews.com/hub/golf">https://apnews.com/hub/golf</a>

KANSAS CITY, Kan. (AP) — Kyle Larson said he would turn his attention to the Indianapolis 500, and a second crack at racing immortality, the moment he stepped out of his car following the NASCAR Cup Series race at Kansas Speedway on Sunday.The only problem with that? He wasn't due for practice at Indianapolis Motor Speedway until Tuesday.Plenty of time to squeeze in another race.<div class="the-score-article-ad-unit"></div>So even as Larson was basking in the glow of a third Cup Series win of the season while flying to Indianapolis on Sunday night, he wasn't quite ready to fully focus on the 500. The plan was to hop in a car and drive to Kokomo, Indiana, for a sprint car race on Monday night, and only then turn his focus to the “Greatest Spectacle in Racing.”“He just goes and goes and goes,” marveled Chad Knaus, the vice president of competition at Hendrick Motorsports, which fields his No. 5 car in the Cup Series and is working with Arrow McLaren to field Larson's car for the Indy 500.The reality is that Larson would rather be behind the wheel of a race car than behind a TV screen, or a bar, or just about anywhere else. His priority every year may be the Cup Series, and winning a second championship, but that leaves plenty of open dates on the schedule where he can sprinkle in an Xfinity Series race, or Truck Series race, or run at a local dirt track.He happened to do that Friday night at Lakeside Speedway, just down the road from Kansas Speedway, where his High Limit Racing series was running. Larson nearly had a sprint car land in his lap during a scary wreck that tore up his car. But he simply shrugged it off as part of racing, and he was back at the track the next morning.“The thing that I've always been impressed with Kyle since he showed up at Hendrick Motorsports is that he is unfazed,” Knaus said. "Like, nothing gets under his skin. He doesn't get wound up. He doesn't get emotional about maybe something that happens on the race track. He doesn't get emotional and carry weight on his shoulders.“He just rolls with it,” Knaus said, “and he goes and he continues to drive.”That preternaturally placid demeanor was stretched nearly to a breaking point at last year's Indy 500, though.Larson was taking his first shot at “the Double,” trying to run every lap of the 500 and the Coca-Cola 600 in Charlotte the same day Memorial Day weekend. Many have tried but only Tony Stewart in 1999 has managed to pull it off.But while Larson was able to overcome every problem lobbed at him on the track — aside from a speeding penalty on pit road in the 500 that took him out of contention for the win — he was powerless when it came to dealing with the weather.He doesn't like being powerless.On race day, rain swept through Indianapolis Motor Speedway and soaked the track, leaving Larson to wait in Gasoline Alley to see whether the race would even take place that Sunday. And if it did take place, would he stay and run the 500 or be forced to withdraw so that he could head to Charlotte and fulfill his obligations in the Cup Series race that night?He stuck around and ran every lap of the Indy 500, and was chosen rookie of the year afterward. But the delay kept him from starting the Coca-Cola 600, and by the time his helicopter-plane-helicopter trip from Indiana to North Carolina had deposited him at the track, more rain in Charlotte kept him from ever climbing into his car there and completing a lap.“Unfortunately once Mother Nature stepped in," Knaus said, "we didn’t have a whole lot that we could do.”The long-range forecast for the Indianapolis 500 looks much better this year.And once again, Larson is heading into perhaps the busiest month of his calendar year riding a wave of on-track momentum.His dominating victory at Kansas Speedway, where he led 221 of 267 laps on Sunday, was his third Cup Series win of the season, and it moved him into first place in the points standings. Larson also has won two of his three Xfinity starts, one of his two Truck races, and he has a win and three top-five finishes in five sprint car features in the High Limit series.Then again, all that success doesn't seem to matter much to him.“I don’t really let a race affect the next day of my life,” Larson explained Sunday night. “I would rather win leading into these next couple of weeks than have a DNF or something. But I don’t really think it matters.”What happens the next couple of weeks matters a lot, though. He's been waiting a whole year to try “the Double” again.“Yeah, it’s going to be a fun two weeks,” Larson said. “I look forward to working together with the team, Arrow McLaren, and learning the car more, trying to narrow in on our balance, and just trying to have a smooth couple weeks like we had last year, and execute like you would in any race and try to be in the hunt at the end.”

<div>
SUNRISE, Fla. (AP) — Sergei Bobrovsky stopped 23 shots for his fifth career playoff shutout, Carter Verhaeghe and Sam Bennett scored and the Florida Panthers beat the Toronto Maple Leafs 2-0 on Sunday night in Game 4 to even the Eastern Conference semifinal series.
Verhaeghe scored on a power play in the first period, Bennett added the insurance score with 7:50 left and Bobrovsky did the rest. He's the first goalie with two shutouts this year in the playoffs.
Joseph Woll stopped 35 shots for the Maple Leafs, who took a 2-0 series lead with a pair of home wins and now return there for Game 5 on Wednesday night with the series tied.
<div class="the-score-article-ad-unit"></div>
Verhaeghe's goal came on Florida's fourth power play of the first period. Matthew Tkachuk, along the left-wing boards, threaded a pass through the slot and past two defenders onto the waiting stick of <a href="https://x.com/NHL/status/1921720696012447952">Verhaeghe — who slammed a one-timer</a> past Woll.
It was part of a spree of shots early for Florida. The Panthers took 21 of the game's first 26 shots on net, simply controlling play for long stretches and keeping all the action in front of Woll. He held firm, time and again, keeping Toronto in it.
Bennett said enough.
He came in from Woll's left, with Verhaeghe on the other side of the slot, then waited for a passing lane. When none appeared, Bennett simply went to the front of the net, watched Woll commit, then pushed the puck into the net before punching the air.
Florida has won 25 consecutive playoff games — going back to May 5, 2022 — when leading after two periods, matched Edmonton for the most wins in the NHL over that span. The Oilers are 25-3 when leading after two since that date.
Oliver Ekman-Larsson — part of the Florida team that won the Stanley Cup last season — delivered a shot to the head and neck area of <a href="https://x.com/JamesonCoop/status/1921743434924036599">Panthers forward Evan Rodrigues</a> about five minutes into in the third period. It was originally called a major, then downgraded to a minor after review.
The Maple Leafs not only killed the penalty off but they even had the best chance of those two minutes when Matthew Knies skated in on a short-handed try. He missed the net.
That might have been the last great chance for Toronto.

LAVAL, Quebec (AP) — Catherine Dubois scored at 15:33 of the fourth overtime to lift the Montreal Victoire to a 3-2 playoff victory over the Ottawa Charge on Sunday.The game set a Canadian professional women’s hockey record for <a href="https://x.com/TSN_Sports/status/1921713205883122113">the longest hockey game ever</a>, passing the Canadian Women’s Hockey League semifinal on March 18, 2018. The previous longest Professional Women’s Hockey League game was played exactly a year ago between Montreal and Boston.Kristin O’Neill and Laura Stacey also scored for Montreal, and Anna Wilgren had two assists. Ann-Renee Desbiens made 63 saves as the Victoire tied the best-of-five semifinal series at 1-1.<div class="the-score-article-ad-unit"></div>Brianne Jenner had a goal and an assist for the Charge. Aneta Tejralova also scored for the visitors while Gwyneth Philips made 53 saves.Ottawa came back from a 2-0 deficit with two goals in the final 4:34 of the third period.

The Charge had pulled their goaltender for the extra attacker.Both teams had five-on-three power plays in the first overtime period, but were unable to capitalize.Montreal had 1:34 of five-on-three time, while Ottawa had 24 seconds. Neither power play generated a great look to end the game.The Victoire opened the scoring 2:25 into the game when O’Neill scored her first of the postseason.The pass banked off the side boards and ended up perfectly placed for O’Neill to beat Ottawa’s defense to the puck. She then put the backhand past Phillips. It was Montreal’s first shot of the game.Montreal doubled their lead 8:35 into the second period when Laura Stacey entered the zone off of a nice pass from Wilgren and fired a snap shot over the pad of Philips.Ottawa looked to cut the lead less than a minute later. A scramble in front saw the puck cross the goal line, but the call after an official review ruled there was goaltender interference. The Charge challenged the call, but it was confirmed giving Montreal a power play. Rebecca Leslie was credited with the shot that crossed the line.The Charge had the best chances during the penalty. Katerina Mrazova hit the post on a rush, and Emily Clark had a shot from the slot saved by Desbiens. It also generated some momentum for Ottawa. Ten of their 11 shots in the second period came after Stacey’s goal.They finally beat Desbiens with 4:34 remaining in the third period. Brianne Jenner’s faceoff win got the puck to Tejralova. Her point shot got through traffic to make the score 2-1.Jenner’s tying goal came when Tereza Vanisova had the puck at the goal line to the left of Desbiens, and fired a cross-ice pass. The puck hit off of Ottawa forward Clark before Jenner fired the one-timer into the open side of the net.The series now shifts to Ottawa for the next two games.

KANSAS CITY, Kan.

He was never challenged down the stretch by second-finishing Christopher Bell — and he most certainly didn't need another last-lap pass to win at the wire like he did a year ago.The margin over Chris Buescher then was 0.001 seconds, the closest in Cup Series history. It was 0.712 seconds on Sunday.<div class="the-score-article-ad-unit"></div>"Glad to not win by an inch this time," Larson said with a smile. "A little safer gap."Larson, who also has wins at Homestead and Bristol, has finished in the top four in each of his past four Cup Series races, and now he will take that momentum to Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Larson will be on track Tuesday as he begins another shot at "the Double" — running every lap of the Indianapolis 500 and Coca-Cola 600 on the same day Memorial Day weekend.Last year, he contended in the rain-delayed Indy 500 before a speeding penalty on pit road resulted in an 18th-place finish. He then hopped a flight to Charlotte for the NASCAR race, but rain there kept him from ever completing a lap."It's a cool win here at Kansas," Larson said in victory lane, "and now we'll try to execute two good weeks at Indy."Even though Larson spent most of a hot, sunny day at Kansas in the lead, he found himself trailing Chase Elliott early in the final stage. But when Elliott's team dropped the jack too soon before his right rear tire was on during a pit stop, Larson was able to get back to the front on the restart, and he spent the last 50 laps cruising to the checkered flag.Bell, a three-time winner already, finished in the top three for the sixth time this season. Ryan Blaney came in third, giving Team Penske another good run after Austin Cindric won two weeks ago at Talladega and Joey Logano won last week at Texas."I was just trying to get to the end. I know Ryan was coming on really strong there," Bell said. "I feel like our day was kind of a product of qualifying well and having good pit stops and restarts."Blaney knew he was coming on strong, too, but he was left to lament what might have been."We were kind of running those guys down quick," Blaney said. "A few more laps, I would have scared the 5 a bit at least."Chase Briscoe finished fourth and Larson's teammate Alex Bowman rounded out the top five.Brad Keselowski looked as if he might finally have his first top-10 finish this season. He started from the rear but steadily made his way forward, and the 2012 series champion had moved into second behind Elliott when his right rear went down with 72 laps to go. Keselowski wound up in the wall, ending his hopes of contending."I mean, it was going to be a great day," Keselowski said. "I heard a big boom and around it went. It's unfortunate."Denny Hamlin also had a fast car all afternoon, but he wound up fighting a clutch problem that made pitting a nightmare. He was still running with the leaders before Keselowski's caution, when yet more clutch trouble finally ruined his day."Really fast again," Hamlin said. "Just can't keep it together right now."Green and yellowThere had been only one non-stage caution before Keselowski hit the wall. Cody Ware, Daniel Suarez and Ty Dillon brought out another in a wreck on the restart; Kyle Busch was bumped and spun to bring out another yellow on the next restart; and Justin Haley, Erik Jones and Bubba Wallace were involved in another wreck on a third consecutive restart.Odds and endsLarson won for the 32nd time, and joined Hamlin and Busch as the only active Cup Series drivers to have led more than 10,000 laps. ... Briscoe was fourth for the fourth time this season. He has yet to finish better. ... Larson made it three straight wins for Chevrolet at Kansas Speedway. Ross Chastain won the fall race last season. ... Hamlin's streak of seven straight top-10s at Kansas ended. He finished 36th. ... Logano challenged for second late in the race before finishing ninth.Up nextThe All-Star Race is up next Sunday at North Wilkesboro, where Logano is the defending champ. There are changes to the format this year, including an optional promoter's caution flag, which could dramatically reshape the 250-lap race.___AP auto racing: <a href="https://apnews.com/hub/auto-racing">https://apnews.com/hub/auto-racing</a><hl2></hl2>

FLOURTOWN, Pa. (AP) — Sepp Straka seized the lead with a par on the 16th hole and shot a 2-under ...

FLOURTOWN, Pa. (AP) — Sepp Straka seized the lead with a par on the 16th hole and shot a 2-under 68, outdueling Shane Lowry on Sunday in the final round of the Truist Championship at Philadelphia Cricket Club for his second victory of the season.After Lowry missed the green with his tee shot at the 212-yard, par-3 16th, Straka hit to approximately 30 feet. Lowry chipped out of the heavy rough but failed to convert a 6-foot par putt, falling a shot behind.Lowry missed a potential tying 22-footer for birdie at the lengthy par-4 17th and after driving into trouble at the stout 514-yard, par-4 closing hole, he finished with a three-putt bogey.<div class="the-score-article-ad-unit"></div>A tense back-nine duel between the two had an anticlimactic ending as Straka made a no-pressure, two-putt par and joined Rory McIlroy (three victories) as a multiple winner on tour this season. The Austrian who played college golf at Georgia also won The American Express in January and now has four career wins.The Truist was another miss for Lowry, whose last PGA Tour victory was the 2019 British Open. He won the European tour's BMW PGA Championship in 2022.Lowry’s even-par 70 left him in a tie for second with Justin Thomas (67), who made a late run at the leaders.Patrick Cantlay (65), Jacob Bridgeman (65) and Tommy Fleetwood 65) finished tied for fourth at 12 under.McIlroy, the defending champion and four-time event winner at Quail Hollow, its usual venue, never really got going and closed with a 2-under 68. Playing in his first individual tournament since completing the career Grand Slam at the Masters, McIlroy shot 68 and was in a group in seventh place at 10 under.McIlroy now heads to his beloved Quail Hollow in Charlotte, North Carolina, for next week's PGA Championship, the year's second major.Prime scoring conditions returned to Philly Cricket’s Wissahickon Course for the first time since the opening round. After a rainy and chilly second round and a blustery third, Thomas, who was trying to win consecutive starts after taking the RBC Heritage last month, was the only real pursuer in the sixth signature event of the PGA Tour season.Ultimately, it came down to the third-round leaders.Straka built a two-stroke lead after the first nine holes, but it wasn’t easy. Lowry broke their tie with a 12-foot birdie putt at the first to get to 15 under.Both took advantage at the par-5 fifth. Lowry made birdie to get to 16 under and Straka trumped his playing partner with a 20-foot eagle putt to forge another tie.The par-3 eighth proved vexing for Lowry, who missed the green with his tee shot, left his chip short and two-putted. Straka seized the opportunity, draining a 15-foot birdie putt to go one stroke up before following with another lengthy putt at No. 9, a 28-footer to reach 17 under.Straka’s lead was gone after two holes on the back nine after consecutive bogeys.After neither capitalized on the 95-yard 14th, <a href="https://apnews.com/article/pga-tour-truist-championship-95-0121472c7b4ecb5c5f4de83311964c2c">the shortest par 3</a> on tour — excluding majors — in the Shotlink era dating to 1983, Lowry nearly chipped in for eagle at the par-5 15th and settled for birdie. Straka matched that with a birdie from 6 feet and moved in front to stay at the next hole.Thomas nearly caught the leaders twice. He missed potential lead-tying birdie putts from 14 feet on the 12th and from 3 feet on the 15th.Andrew Novak, who teamed with Ben Griffin to win last month's team event at the Zurich Classic, had Sunday’s low round with a 6-under 64 and finished tied for 17th.Sahith Theegala withdrew before the start of the final round, citing a neck injury.Nearly to a man, the pros spoke fondly of the Wissahickon course in the tour’s return to golf-starved Philadelphia. The century-old course boasted large crowds throughout the week, resulting in the event’s fan shop selling out of merchandise on Saturday and being shuttered for the final round.

FLOURTOWN, PENNSYLVANIA - MAY 11: Sepp Straka of Austria plays his shot from the fourth tee during the final round of the Truist Championship 2025 at The Wissahickon at Philadelphia Cricket Club on May 11, 2025 in Flourtown, Pennsylvania.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Rafael Devers' 440-foot homer snapped a 1-1 tie and Lucas Giolito pitched into the seventh inning for his first win since 2023 as the Boston Red Sox beat the Kansas City Royals 3-1 on Sunday.Giolito (1-1) allowed two singles and one unearned run in 6 2/3 innings to get his first win for Boston.

With one out and a runner on first in the sixth, Devers blasted Seth Lugo's first pitch to dead center, his seventh longball of the year.<div class="the-score-article-ad-unit"></div>In the third inning, Giolito threw wildly past third on Kyle Isbel's bunt, allowing Drew Waters to score. He faced the minimum after that.Wilyer Abreu tied it in the fourth with his 10th homer, a 430-foot shot to right. Abreu had three hits, snapping an 0-for-13 slide.Aroldis Chapman pitched a scoreless ninth for his sixth save.Lugo (3-4) allowed three runs in six innings for his fifth straight quality start.Kansas City had four hits, all singles, and lost consecutive games for the first time since a six-game skid from April 14-19.Key momentWith two on and nobody out in the third, Giolito escaped the jam by getting two groundouts sandwiched around a strikeout of Bobby Witt Jr.Key statDevers has reached safely in eight of his last nine plate appearances.Up nextRed Sox RHP Tanner Houck (0-2, 6.10 ERA) opposes Tigers RHP Jackson Jobe (2-0, 4.88) at Detroit on Monday.Royals RHP Michael Wacha (2-4, 2.98) faces the Astros at Houston on Tuesday.___AP MLB: <a href="https://apnews.com/hub/mlb">https://apnews.com/hub/mlb</a>
