Golfers at prestigious Las Vegas course now forced to stare at gigantic eyeball
Golfers at a prestigious golf course in Las Vegas, Nevada are being confronted with an odd eyesore - a literal gigantic eye called 'The Sphere.' If you've not seen the images or videos online yet, Las Vegas has a brand new attraction - The Sphere at The Venetian Resort. The 18,600-seat orb is basically a huge spherical LED video screen that can take the form of pretty much anything that is the shape of a ball. It cost $2.3 billion to build and was lit up for the first time earlier this month. So far, the Moon and a humungous NBA basketball have been projected from the orb but its newest image, a huge eye, might just be impacting a local golf course and its patrons. The eyeball currently overlooks the Wynn Golf Club, which is essentially the closest neighbour to the Sphere. The golf club is reportedly one of the most prestigious and lucrative golf courses in the entire United States and costs around $600 to play at. Now how funny you find this depends on how much you like golf but needless to say, people found it very humourous. Shooter McGavin, a character from the Adam Sandler golf comedy Happy Gilmore, was on the side of not being impressed. The Sphere does not open to the public until September with U2 set to be the first residency at the venue with their 'UV Achtung Baby Live at Sphere' show. Have your say in our news democracy.

Ex-Leeds boss Marcelo Bielsa gets new coaching job
Marcelo Bielsa has been appointed as Uruguay head coach. The 67-year-old had been out of football management since leaving Leeds almost 15 months ago. The Uruguayan Football Association confirmed Bielsa’s appointment on a deal running until the 2026 World Cup. He succeeds Diego Alonso as national team boss. Alonso’s contract expired after the World Cup in Qatar earlier this season, where Uruguay suffered a shock group-stage exit. Bielsa served as manager of Argentina from 1998 to 2004 and he also had a four-year stint in charge of Chile. Bielsa guided Leeds back to the Premier League from the Championship in 2020 and was one of the most popular managers in the club’s history. But he left in February last year following a run of four successive league defeats. His lengthy managerial career has also included spells with Athletic Bilbao, Marseille and Lille. Uruguay are currently 16th in FIFA’s world rankings, with Bielsa’s first major campaign at the helm set to be next year’s Copa America in the United States.

Researchers throw a new twist into the age-old Loch Ness Monster tale
The Loch Ness Monster has left people scratching their heads for years, with many claiming they spotted the beast itself. Now, it's got its own "eel hypothesis," a paper dedicated to the theory that such sightings could have been eels. Researchers looked at data from Loch Ness to understand the number of eels there and their average measurements, as per IFL Science. They discovered that the eels were on the smaller side, compared to the estimates of the Loch Ness Monster, said to be roughly 1-2 metres according to one sighting. Another suggested it could be 15-20 metres. "However, this is not quite the ‘monster postulated," the authors told the outlet."Indeed, the probability of finding a 6-meter [20-foot] eel in Loch Ness is essentially zero – too low for the software used to provide a reliable estimate." "Thus, while large eels may account for some eyewitness sightings of large, animate objects rising to the loch surface, they are unlikely to account for 'sightings' of extraordinarily large animals, which may instead be accounted for by wave phenomena, the occasional stray mammal, or other reasons." Sign up for our free Indy100 weekly newsletter It comes after several sightings last year were shot down by an academic who said they were simply whale penises. Michael Sweet, a professor in molecular ecology at the University of Derby, candidly, and informatively, added: "Whales often mate in groups so while one male is busy with the female the other male just pops his d*** out of the water while swimming around waiting his turn.
