Prayer answered
Broncos fan says the departure of “under-performing coach Anthony Seibold yesterday from the Broncos team is the answer to his National Day of Repentance prayers.

Golfer Ashleigh Buhai (pronounced Buai) is a South African professional golfer whose surname sounds like PNG’s favourite nut. She is the youngest player to win the ladies’ South African amateur double and the first player in 101 years to win the Ladies South African Open title three times. Go Buai!
