Tuohys ready to end Oher conservatorship

A lawyer for a prominent Memphis couple with a longstanding relationship to former NFL player Michael Oher says that they want to end a conservatorship that he’s challenging in court. Lawyer Randall Fishman says Wednesday that Sean and Leigh Anne Tuohy intend to enter into a consent order to end the conservatorship.

Oher filed a petition Monday in Tennessee accusing the Tuohys of lying to him by having him sign papers making them his conservators.

Oher, now 37, wants a full accounting of assets. He says he received nothing from the Oscar-nominated movie “The Blind Side.”

The Tuohys have called the allegations ridiculous and part of a shakedown attempt.

BMW Championship to help decide Ryder team

The BMW Championship is the final event that decides who reaches the FedEx Cup finale. For the Americans, it has nothing to do with money. The cup on their minds is the Ryder Cup.

The BMW Championship starts Thursday at Olympia Fields outside of Chicago. It’s the last tournament for Americans to earn six automatic spots on the team that goes to Rome. And then next week after the Tour Championship, the six captain’s picks are named. Keegan Bradley says he can’t stop thinking about the Ryder Cup. Lucas Glover has been trying to make the team since he turned pro. Jon Rahm remains the No. 1 seed and in some respects is the defending champion. He won at Olympia Fields in 2020.
