Why this leaning score
This article does not take a side on a contested political question, so it has no leaning score. That is an answer rather than a gap: a match report or a rescue can be warmly or critically written without being left or right, and scoring it anyway is how approval of a subject gets recorded as a political position.

“While both articles describe conditions during the Bermuda Championship involving Smotherman and Power leading, Article A reports on play occurring on Saturday with strong winds, while Article B describes play being canceled on Sunday due to even stronger wind. These are two distinct events despite their connection.”
