Rory McIlroy commissioned this pencil drawing after last year's Masters Tournament.

The artist (@KeeganHall) provided context on Reddit:

• Spent 6+ months working on it
• Estimates 600-800+ total hours
• Worked on it 6-7 days each week
• Uses a Pentel Graphgear mechanical pencil

Hall says this piece was incredibly challenging because so much detail went into such a small area. For context, the original is smaller than 30x22, so each face in the crowd is essentially a quarter of the size of a fingernail.

This is the second piece he has done for Rory.

@iamjohngibbons : Hi John, would you have time to do an interview with my 12 year old daughter for a school project about the music industry?

"In demand standing ticket" is just a standard standing ticket except double the price.

No difference between Ticketmaster and touts.

This is exactly what happened.

[Henry Winter @henrywinter]

Just back in England, heading to Wembley, and just checking whether @UEFA has apologised yet for its slur on #LFC fans "arriving late" when they were actually held up in a bottleneck for 2-3 hours caused by dangerous policing with those two angled police vans in the underpass.

It’s important to tell what happened on the ground last night as I see that there are already several versions of ‘The Truth’ flying around. I was on the ground from 6.45pm (2.15 hrs before kick off) when problems began. So here’s a 🧵explaining my experiences….

@patsybrady HNY to you also and hope you are keeping well in these mad times. I'm losing hair and going grey but other than that I'm trying to perfect my tennis game!

@patsybrady : bet you love this as a hard core gooner!

VAR just checking that to make sure some more of the joy and celebration is sucked out of football.

[Dominic King @DKingTelegraph]

This is no criticism, just an observation of how football has changed so dramatically. In the not so distant past, teams on 42 & 41 points on Jan 2, with 2 defeats in 19 games, would be lauded as champions in waiting. Now it’s being seen as below par. Madness ⚽️
