Patrick Mahomes reveling after a huge play. Rafael Nadal clutching another trophy. Sarah Fuller kicking off a new generation. The faces of sports in 2020, new and old, were familiar. But the images that most defined this year, on and off the fields, diamonds, courts and courses all over the world, definitely were not. And from every corner, the photographers of The Associated Press were there to capture them. Two fans in Tokyo, sitting in front of the lit Olympic rings at a games gone dark because of the coronavirus. NBA players lined up in front of Black Lives Mat- ter lettering. An empty Oracle Park in San Francisco, the sky lit up in orange from the raging California wildfires. Naomi Osaka and her masks at the U.S. Open, calling attention to racial injustice. A stadium worker walking among rows of cardboard cutouts. COVID-19 ravaged and rearragned the schedules, but the sports went on. Mookie Betts hollered as he rounded the bases in a World Series that capped a pandemic-shortened season. Dustin Johnson put on a green jacket after a record-setting effort at a Masters held in the fall, rather than the spring. LeBron James and Lakers finished off a title at a time they’d normally be starting anew. In 20-20 hindsight, athletes and athletics never saw Associated Press this coming. Thanks to the AP photographers, we saw Sneakers and a Los Angeles Lakers uniform with the numbers worn by NBA star Kobe Bryant are left at a it all. memorial for Bryant while fans gather to pay their respects near Staples Center in Los Angeles on Feb. 2, 2020.

HOUSTON — Amy Olson got back to under par with one swing, an 8-iron for a hole-in-one on her seventh hole Thurs- day, and kept right on going until she had a 4-under 67 and a one-shot lead in the U.S. Women’s Open. On a perfect day, the scores made it perfectly clear that Champions Golf Club was primed to provide a stern test. Olson, a prolific winner at North Da- kota State and still winless in seven years on the LPGA Tour, was among only 11 players who broke 70 on the Cypress Creek and Jackrabbit courses. For the first time, two courses are being used for the opening rounds because of the limited daylight by postponing the premier event in women’s golf to December. Out of 156 players, only 36 were at par or better. “We had absolutely perfect weather today and 4 under is leading,” Champi- ons member Stacy Lewis said after a 72. “I don’t think scores are going anywhere.” Moriya Jutanugarn managed to keep bogeys off her card on the Jackrabbit course for a 68, leaving her tied with former Women’s British Open champion Hinako Shibuno (Cypress Creek) and A Lim Kim (Jackrabbit). Sophia Popov was among the group at 69. She figured it would be a long shot to be in the U.S. Women’s Open this year when the USGA had to scrap qualifying because of the COVID-19 pandemic. And then when golf resumed, Popov earned a spot in the Women’s British Open and won at Royal Troon.
