Paul Hogan's Divorce Is Dundee

Perhaps Paul Hogan will mark his divorce by throwing a few more shrimp on the barbie.

A California judge has finalized Hogan's divorce from wife Linda Kozlowski and the assets have been divvied up.
Per the settlement, Hogan, 74, retains the rights to the character "Crocodile Dundee," the role that made him famous, as well as ownership of the film company that produced the huge original film (1986) and its two sequels, Crocodile Dundee II (1988) and Crocodile Dundee in Los Angeles (2001).

Ryder Cup 2014: Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson among those in danger of missing Ryder Cup

Time is running out for American to prove form and fitness for Geneagles while Mickelson and Westwood also face selection battle

                          Searching for form: Tiger Woods finished tied for 69th at the Open

One of these American golfing legends believes he is worth a Ryder Cup wildcard despite lying in 70th place in the standings, having missed more than three months because of back surgery and having a best finish for the year of a tie for 25th.

The other is not sure whether he is worth a wildcard, despite lying in 11th place in the standings, having three top-12 finishes in his past six outings and having recorded a fine 68 in the final round of the Open on Sunday. Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson have always been opposites.

However, they do at least have one thing in common. Together, with Lee Westwood from the Europe perspective, they are emerging as the main stories in the biennial Ryder Cup selection head-scratcher. This time around the cranium could bleed from all the frenzied nail rubbing.

Stoke City sign Bojan Krkic for £3million from Barcelona

Stoke manager Mark Hughes delighted to land Spain international Bojan Krkic the former Barcelona prodigy once hailed as the next Lionel Messi 

Firepower: Stoke are confident of wrapping up a deal for Bojan in the next few days which will see him sign for the season

Bojan Krkic, the former Barcelona prodigy once hailed as the next Lionel Messi, has signed for Stoke City in a £3million deal.
The Spain international flew out to Germany on Tuesday night to join Mark Hughes's squad on their pre-season tour and will sign a four-year contract.

Bojan, 23, held talks with Hughes a fortnight ago and also passed a medical but Stoke feared missing out when negotiations with Barcelona stalled.

But Bojan verbally agreed to move to the Britannia Stadium on Monday night and his arrival ensures a remarkable coup for Hughes.

A product of Barcelona's famed academy, which has produced talents such as Messi, Andrés Iniesta and Xavi, he made his debut for the Catalan club at the age of 17 and is determined to rebuild his career after falling off the radar in recent years.

Louis van Gaal faces his first test ahead of LA Galaxy friendly: who should captain Manchester United?

New manager Louis van Gaal needs to decide who will captain Manchester United this season, with Wayne Rooney and Robin van Persie obvious but divisive options

Louis van Gaal will make his first significant decision as Manchester United manager on Wednesday when he names his captain for the pre-season friendly against LA Galaxy in Pasadena.

The absence from the United States tour of Robin van Persie, Van Gaal’s captain during the World Cup with Holland, and the ankle injury which has sidelined Michael Carrick for three months ensures that a decision on a permanent captain may still be some weeks away.

But if Van Gaal overlooks Wayne Rooney when he hands out the armband in the Rose Bowl dressing room, it will point towards a wholly new dynamic at Old Trafford and one which the England forward is unlikely to have anticipated when he signed his new five-year contract in February.

The loss of so many experienced and long-serving players this summer has created a captaincy vacuum at United and the reality is that there is no outstanding candidate to succeed Nemanja Vidic, who has left for Inter Milan.

How Real Madrid and Barcelona could line up following stunning signings of James Rodriguez and Luis Suarez

James Rodríguez's £63million arrival at Bernabéu ensure that both Spanish clubs will be equipped with the most formidable forward lines next season

In 2001 when Real Madrid president Florentino Pérez began the second summer of his Galáctico revolution with the signing of Zinedine Zidane from Juventus for a world record fee of £45 million, the only available squad number between one and 11 was No5. And so the greatest midfield player of his generation glided around the Bernabéu for the next five seasons with a swan-necked centre-half’s shirt on his back. Two years later David Beckham turned that notion on its head when he took No23 because Raul held the freehold on No7, but before the marketing phenomenon arrived it was felt that 1-11 remained the most valuable slots for merchandising.
