Scotland's World Cup hopes took a hit after a 1-0 defeat against Morocco, leaving them in a precarious position in the group stage. The team will need to win against Brazil on Wednesday to guarantee at least second spot in the group.

In other World Cup news, Brazil comfortably beat Haiti 2-0, with Manchester United forward Matheus Cunha scoring twice. Haiti became the first team to be eliminated from the 2026 World Cup.

In golf, Bryson DeChambeau missed the cut in his third straight major, finishing at 5-over 75. The former U.S. Open champion was not the only big name to miss the cut, as several other former champions also failed to make the grade.
