Red Sox Star Jarren Duran Hurls Homophobic Slur At Heckler ... Apologizes
MLB star Jarren Duran was caught on a hot mic calling a heckler an anti-gay slur on Sunday ... and after receiving backlash for hours, the outfielder issued a mea culpa, apologizing for his "truly horrific" language.
The 27-year-old Red Sox player let the f-word fly when he stepped into the batter's box during the sixth inning of Boston's blowout loss to Houston.
You can hear in audio from the game's broadcast ... as a man in the Fenway Park stands chirped him about needing "a tennis racket" while at the dish -- he fired back by calling the guy a "f***ing f****t."
Donald Trump Impressive On Golf Course Nearly Cards A Hole-In-One
Donald Trump's golf game has never looked better ... just a few weeks after he impressed LIV star Bryson DeChambeau with his on-the-course work, he nearly carded a hole-in-one while playing with his fam.
Check out some video Donald Trump Jr. posted from his round with his Pops over the weekend ... No. 45 hit a shot so pure, he missed an ace by just inches.
The hole was a Par 3 that was surrounded by water and a big bunker ... and while it's unclear how long it was playing -- based on the iron DT was using, it appeared to be somewhere in the 160ish-yard range.
Colin Jost I'm a Leper!!!
Colin Jost posted an alarming update on the injuries and illnesses he sustained during his harrowing -- and hilarious -- coverage in Tahiti as an Olympics Surfing correspondent, and NBC has labeled him a scourge!
NBC, according to Colin, has diagnosed him with leprosy ... true, the network brass aren't doctors, but it's a fair assessment after the 'SNL' star had to leave the games because he was doing himself in with gashes, bites and infections.

Colin himself said he's been declared a "leper" by his own network. That typically means he needs to isolate to protect himself and others. Obviously a joke ... but still, we get the point.

Ayesha Curry Fights Back Tears ... In Tense Face-Off With French Police
The Paris Olympics wasn't all fun and gold medals for Steph Curry and his family ... the NBA legend's wife, Ayesha found herself in tears while dealing with French authorities.
The TV personality -- who was in Paris to cheer on her Team USA star hubby as he willed the U.S. to a victory of France in Saturday's gold medal game -- is going viral as video shows her wiping away tears while having a tense face-off with local authorities.
Check out the vid ... it's unclear exactly what went down, but it seems there was a dispute over whether or not Ayesha and her infant son, Caius Chai, were allowed to make their way over to their car ... which appeared to be stuck in gridlock traffic due to French President Emmanuel Macron exiting the area.
From the sounds of it, baby Caius got caught up in the chaos and was clocked in the noggin by someone on the scene ... which prompted an emotional response from Ayesha and Steph's mom, Sonya.
Steph's Golden State Warriors teammate Draymond Green happened to be there ... and was even heard snapping at the authorities, saying ... "So even after y'all hit the baby in the head, there's still nothing y'all can do to get them out of here?"

Of course, no surprise Draymond would have the Curry's back ... Steph and DG have been teammates for years.
But, the French authorities didn't appear moved by their pleas ... as they maintained their stance that the family had to stay put.
Prior to the confrontation, the Curry's were on cloud 9.
Steph was a key factor in Team USA's win over France, earning Curry, LeBron James and the rest of the stars a gold medal. The 2x NBA MVP went off in the closing moments of the tight game, knocking down 4 threes when the U.S badly needed buckets.
A sad way to end an otherwise happy Olympics experience.
