British Open, Henrik Stenson, Phil Mickelson,  Detroit Tigers, Michael Fulmer, Jarrod Saltalamacchia, Denzel Valentine, NBA Summer League, and  Weekend Winners.

  Al is out of town, so regular Current Sports' engineer Isaac Constans takes the head seat while Seth Kinker holds down the engineer and cohost role. First and foremost, Isaac covers one of the best one-on-one matchups we've ever seen. In the British Open, Henrik Stenson topped Phil Mickleson in a battle of two greats, as Stenson got his first major win. Isaac brings around all the record-breaking stats before going to Jarrod Saltalamacchia's walk-off shot. Could it be a turning point for the Tigers? Then, Denzel Valentine vs. Kahlil Felder was the NBA Summer League's match of the day yesterday. Isaac and Seth compare the two performances before eventually ending the show with "Weekend Winners."
