A 7 and a 78: Ugly numbers for Tiger Woods in US Open

"I made three of them."Despite the poor putting and the high opening number, Woods expressed optimism that he's still in contention. Of course, he'll need a total turnaround from Thursday's outing."Just shoot something in the 60s tomorrow and I will be fine," he said. "I think today was the toughest day we will have all week."He'd better hope so.Sports Related Videospowered by AdSparcRead Next Woods airmailed the green on his approach and it went down a steep hill into light rough. His pitch got onto the green, but not nearly far enough to stay there, and rolled back down the hill a few steps to the left of where Woods had been.Showing no signs of frustration, he switched to a putter for his fourth shot, but that didn't come close to remaining on the putting surface, either.A spectator said "guaranteed this one isn't short" as Woods hit shot No. 5. It wasn't, but he left himself with about 10 feet for 6, and his putt brushed the hole.When Woods went over the par-3 second green with his tee shot, a long, unproductive day seemed imminent. He putted again, getting to 6 feet, but pushed the putt.Two holes and 4 over on one of the world's most difficult courses in as tough a tournament to win as any.Then Woods steadied. He never looked like a three-time U.S. Open winner — most recently in 2008 — but he played the rest of the front side in 1 under.After Woods set the putter down behind his ball on the 10th green, he backed away when the ball moved. Under new rules, it's no longer a penalty, but he called over a rules official to make sure. Then he replaced the ball and made the putt for par.Then it got really ugly, and the frustration began to show with blown putt after blown putt.He bogeyed the difficult par-3 11th after hitting into the bunker and leaving his next shot well short of the pin. The four-putt was next, on the 13th. Another double bogey on the next hole saw Woods walking slowly off the green, seemingly beaten by Shinnecock's harsh greens and his failing putter."We thought there were probably seven to nine birdie-able holes out there, but that changed dramatically with the wind blowing and where they put these pins," Woods said. "It was pretty evident nobody was making birdies and there were plenty of bogeys.

(AP Photo/Frank Franklin II)SOUTHAMPTON, N.Y. — As Tiger Woods stood in the middle of the first fairway, the last thing on his mind was a 7.That number was the first thing on his scorecard Thursday in the U.S. Open.ADVERTISEMENT Volcano watch: Island fissures steaming, lake water receding China population now over 1.4 billion as birthrate falls It didn't get better on his way to another ugly number, a first-round 78."I just didn't get off to a good start," Woods said.

Woods shot an 80 at Chambers Bay three years ago, his most recent U.S. Open before back surgeries sidelined him.Woods rallied by playing the rest of the front nine at 1-under par. After that, his putting fluctuated from spotty to just plain bad, including four putts on the 13th.

I blocked the next one, (and) blocked the next one. It was not very good."Nope, it wasn't. Shinnecock Hills pushed him around the way it did so many other top names and supposed contenders. A 15th major championship and first in 10 years appears beyond improbable for the greatest golfer of his generation.Woods was nine strokes out of the lead, in the company of Phil Mickelson (7-over-80), Jordan Spieth (8 over), Jason Day (9 over) and Rory McIlroy (10 over)."I think he played better than he scored," said playing partner Dustin Johnson, who finished the day in a four-way tie for the lead at 1 under. "Obviously he got off to a rough start, but I felt like he hung in there pretty good."With the fairways and greens lined a half-dozen deep in spots for the marquee threesome of Johnson, Woods and Justin Thomas, there never was a shortage of encouraging shouts of "Tiger!" There were audible groans, though, on the opening hole with each of his subsequent shots.ADVERTISEMENT View comments read more

LNG plan receives setback
That has been disputed by environmentalists who say there is no guarantee the project would do either because the gas could also be sold to other states. Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger has veto power over the project, but cannot overturn the commission's decision about the pipeline lease. He has not made a decision on what he'd do should the project move forward. "It would be inappropriate for me to take a position on any application before the review process is complete, but I do believe that liquefied natural gas should be a part of California's energy portfolio," Schwarzenegger said in a statement Monday. Opponents have argued the terminal would not meet clean air requirements and could be a terrorist target. A host of celebrities who live in Malibu, including Pierce Brosnan and Halle Berry, have protested the proposal. Commission Chairman John Garamendi, who is also the lieutenant governor, said he voted against awarding the lease permit because "serious questions remain about the project's safety and its potential impact on the environment." "In today's world there are many compelling reasons to support the acquisition of numerous and plentiful energy sources for California. … However, no project should be built at the expense of our environment and our quality of life, and no project that is vague on critical safety issues should be approved," Garamendi said in a statement. The 30-year lease considered by the three-member State Lands Commission would have granted BHP the right to build, operate, use and maintain the pipelines. The plan called for subsea lines, which would be laid about 100 feet apart, to be about 23 miles long but only cross about 4 miles of California land before reaching Ormond Beach in Ventura County. Without the subsea pipelines, the terminal would essentially be inoperable. 160Want local news?Sign up for the Localist and stay informed Something went wrong. Please try again.subscribeCongratulations! You're all set! "We're ecstatic," said Susan Jordan, director of the California Coastal Protection Network, which provided the shirts and helped organize the opponents. "This effectively kills it." Patrick Cassidy, a BHP spokesman said the company was disappointed, "but we remain committed to the process." He said he didn't know BHP's next move, including whether the company would file any legal action. "We'll have to consider what the options would be." Under the project, chilled gas brought overseas by tanker would be heated, then piped ashore through two 24-inch diameter lines. From there, Southern California Gas Co. would pump it out to consumers. In all, the facility would process about 800 million cubic feet of natural gas every day. BHP officials have said the terminal would supply an amount equal to 10 percent to 15 percent of California's daily consumption, bringing more reliability to the state's energy sources and could ultimately lower prices. OXNARD – The State Lands Commission decided late Monday not to award a lease essential to a proposed liquefied natural gas terminal off the Southern California coast, citing environmental concerns. In the 2-1 vote, commissioners complicated efforts by Australia's BHP Billiton LNG International Inc. to build an $800 million terminal in the ocean northwest of Los Angeles, about 14 miles off Malibu and about 20 miles off Oxnard. BHP officials have said the facility would provide a reliable source of low-polluting energy. "I … don't believe this project is going to be in the best interests of the state or its residents," said Commissioner John Chiang, who is also the state controller. The decision was met with loud cheers by the estimated 900 people who packed the auditorium for Monday's commission hearing. Many were opponents who wore blue shirts emblazoned with the words "Terminate the Terminal." read more

29 Dec 2019 By admin
Emre Can in action for Liverpool Emre Can is set to discover the extent of the injury he picked up against Borussia Dortmund this weekend, having undergone a scan on Friday.The German midfielder limped off during the game against the Bundesliga club, having fallen awkwardly in a goalmouth scramble 10 minutes from time.He is suspended for Sunday's trip to Bournemouth, meaning he would not have been playing this weekend anyway, but the 22-year-old will now spend the upcoming days hoping to find out the extent of his injury."We will have to see what the scan shows," Can said, with the results expected within 24 hours."I twisted my ankle.

GOLF NEWS: DAVID WALSH WINS THE SINGLES MATCH-PLAY AT BARNHILL
Letterkenny Golf NotesWed. 1st Oct. Open: Following on from his second placing a week earlier, the consistant Pauric Dunleavy [10] went one step further up the ladder to claim top spot with a winning score of 38pts.Recording a birdie at the par five 2nd, Pauric reduced the outward nine to 39 shots, three gross over par and 21pts, to consolidate a lead which he then cemented on the back nine to win by two points from Kieran Walsh [11]. Kieran's "easy" scoring was broken by a triple bogey at 6th and again a double bogey at 17th but his birdie at 16th helped him to relegate Tom Redden [20] to third place by virtue of BOT.This is Tom's second third placing in as many weeks and again on BOT, with another unfortunate "blank" at 10th losing him points.Sat. 4th Open was won by single figure handicapper Brendan Mc Grath [6] with a two over gross 74 shots and 40pts.Brendan's card made impressive reading of two over gross thru 14th, bogey at 15th and birdie at 18th! Then again he was pushed hard and even required a BOT to take the honours from that man again, Pauric Dunleavy [9].Pauric's card was equally choice reading with birdies at 2nd, 5th and 7th on outward nine but with an uncharacteristic double bogey at 6th, again followed by birdies at 11th and 16th on inward nine, but the double bogeys at 12th and 14th costing him an outright win.Chasing both of them to the finish line with his own birdies recorded at 3rd, 7th and 18th was Dessie Ferry [8] showing a bit of late season form.Unfortunately, Dessie's "blank" at 1st and his double bogey at 9th cost him dearly also.Best gross on the day was returned by Darragh Mc Menamin [4] with 34gross points. Sunday 5th confined competition was won by Michael Forde [14] with runaway 42pts. Michael's card comprised of two nines of 40 gross shots each, 21pts out & back, and could have been better but for a lapse which saw him record four consecutive bogeys from 6th to 9th.A few points back in second place was Cat 4 John J>Doherty Memorial Cup winner Peter Mc Ginty [21] who, despite a "blank" at 7th and a double bogey at 14th, returned 37pts.Congratulations to David Walsh, winner of the club's singles matchplay. David defeated Joe Lambe in the final where the match ended at the 15th hole.Congratulations to the Letterkenny Golf Club's Senior Scratch Cup team who came away from Rosapenna on Sunday with three matches over the home team in the first leg of their semi-final match. The return leg is on this Sunday 12th at Barnhill and support for the home team would be greatly appreciated.Remember: Sanding of the course is ongoing. Apologies for any inconvenience. 6 inch placing and free drop [nearest point, not nearer the hole] from tractor tracks will be in place for the next two weeks.An understatement: "Which is the most difficult shot in golf?" Groucho Marx: "The hole in one."GOLF NEWS: DAVID WALSH WINS THE SINGLES MATCH-PLAY AT BARNHILL was last modified: October 8th, 2014 by Mark ForkerShare this:Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window)Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window)Click to share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)Click to share on Reddit (Opens in new window)Click to share on Pocket (Opens in new window)Click to share on Telegram (Opens in new window)Click to share on WhatsApp (Opens in new window)Click to share on Skype (Opens in new window)Click to print (Opens in new window)Tags:BarnhilgolfNoticesSport read more

Who is the favourite to win the Golden Boot at the World Cup in Russia?
Dele Alli reveals pre-match rituals and lucky charms he has before matches Blessed with incredible pace and power, Lukaku has bullied Premier League defences for five years now. However, as with many of Belgium's incredible 'Golden Generation', this has not transpired into international success. Under former Everton manager Roberto Martinez, the Manchester United striker will be hoping to seize his moment on the world stage and lead his country to success.Harry Kane (Tottenham Hotspur) – 16/1Can Kane be the first Englishman since Bobby Moore to lift the World Cup? Chances are, probably not – but he is still expected to score a load of goals. The Tottenham Hotspur striker seems to have hit form at just the right time and is a certain starter to lead the line. With games against Tunisia and Panama to start, the prolific marksman will be hoping he can finally score at a major tournament.Timo Werner (Red Bull Leipzig) – 14/1 Latest World Cup news 6 Kylian Mbappe limped out of training for France, while Spain sacked their manager and appointed a new one in a matter of moments!But when the first ball is kicked on Thursday afternoon in the titanic clash between the hosts and Saudi Arabia, the world will briefly stop and stare at the action on the pitch.In previous years, the winner of the Golden Boot at the Finals has tended to play for the country – think Ronaldo in 2002 or David Villa in 2010.But who is the favourite to win the prestigious award this time around? Thanks to bet365, we have calculated the odds and worked out just how is the favourite to finish as top scorer at this year's World Cup in Russia – check it out below.Luis Suarez (Uruguay) – 25/1 The Brazilian superstar will be hoping to fire his country to World Cup glory this summer At 33, this may well be the last chance for Ronaldo to win the World Cup. Although his superhuman fitness levels could carry him through until the next tournament in Qatar, he will almost certainly never be in better form or condition than this time around. A third successive Champions League trophy suggests he is still in his peak and a few early group stage goals could set him up for the tournament.Gabriel Jesus (Brazil) – 16/1The striker may not be carrying the weight of a nation on his young shoulders just quite yet, but he has shown he is more than capable of scoring crucial goals if needs be. After helping Manchester City to the Premier League title last season, the 21-year-old will be hoping to guide his country to a sixth World Cup triumph in Russia this summer.Romelu Lukaku (Manchester United) – 16/1 'It could have been me' – Allardyce admits World Cup was tough to watch SUPERSTITION The World Cup trophy will be lifted by one lucky captain on July 15 diamond geezer Lukaku will lead the line for Belgium in Russia misery 6 You're the one Never count Cristiano Ronaldo out, especially after Portugal's Euro 2016 triumph Former Liverpool striker Luis Suarez will be expected to inspire Uruguay in Russia Fallon d'Floor 6 Why does Luis Suarez kiss his wrist when he celebrates a goal? Paul Pogba buys France World Cup winners specially designed rings Arsenal star Laurent Koscielny admits he didn't want France to win World Cup The World Cup is less than 24 hours away and the excitement levels across the globe are reaching fever pitch.England arrived in Russia on Tuesday and there have already been major incidents off the pitch already. Werner could be one of the big names who secures a move away with a successful World Cup Probably the least recognisable name on the list, Werner is a deadly marksman with ice running through his veins. The Red Bull Leipzig forward is blessed with incredible pace and power to compliment his predatory instincts. A good tournament could see him get a big move away – with Real Madrid reportedly interested in acquiring his services.Antoine Griezmann (Atletico Madrid) – 12/1The Golden Boot winner from Euro 2016, Griezmann has developed from a tricky, yet inconsistent winger to one of the deadliest marksmen in Europe. France have an almost embarrassing array of attacking talent at their disposal and will be sure to score goals for fun. If they build their team around the Atletico Madrid star, you could expect to see him score. 6 Learn the words for England's catchy Gareth Southgate song 6 A reminder to Liverpool fans about the very comical threat Neymar offers The Barcelona striker has a notorious history at major tournaments. In 2010, his deliberate handball helped his country progress at the expense of Ghana, while his attempted bite of Giorgio Chiellini earned him a four month ban from all football-related activity. His long odds suggest he may have lost his appetite for goals somewhat, but don't count the feisty striker out.Edinson Cavani (Uruguay)- 20/1Expected to partner Suarez up front, the Paris Saint-Germain striker will be hoping to continue his wonderful form from the domestic season into the World Cup. After scoring 40 goals in all competitions last season, Cavani may be surprised to see his name so far down the odds, but a difficult group containing Egypt, Saudi Arabia and Russia is unlikely to be a walk in the park.Cristiano Ronaldo (Portugal) – 16/1 NO JOY Lionel Messi (Barcelona) – 11/1Like his adversary Cristiano Ronaldo, failure to win a World Cup at this year's tournament could see Messi miss out on the biggest prize in football altogether. Having briefly retired once after failing to win the Copa America, Messi will be desperate to score the goals to deliver a first World Cup triumph for Argentina since 1986.Neymar Jr. (Paris Saint-Germain) – 8/1 LU BEAUTY 6 The heir apparent to the Ballon d'Or, perhaps leading his country to glory and avenging the demons of 2014 will inspire Neymar to success. After a back injury in the quarter-finals cruelly ended his tournament prematurely in Brazil, the former Barcelona man is fully fit and seemingly back to his best. A wondergoal at Anfield in a recent friendly suggests he deserves his place at the top of the odds list.talkSPORT is your home of the 2018 World Cup.

South Africa kicks off 2011 election drive
South Africa is headed for local elections. (Image: Bongani Nkosi) The IEC has launched its voter registration campaign. (Image: M&G) MEDIA CONTACTS • Kate Bapela Spokesperson, IEC +27 12 622 5579 or +27 82 600 6386 RELATED ARTICLES • Millions vote in record SA election • South Africans go to the polls • Hopes of a peaceful Sudan poll • Zuma: a more prosperous nationBongani NkosiSouth Africa's Independent Electoral Commission (IEC) has launched an ambitious drive to swell voter turnout at the 2011 local government elections – a poll that has, in the past, been under-supported, especially among young people.The government is yet to announce the exact date for citizens to vote in their new municipality council leaders, but it's expected to be in either May or June. The current term for incumbent councillors ends on 2 March, and the next elections should be held within 90 days of that.The commission wants to register no less than 1.5-million new voters to ensure these are as well attended as national elections. More than 21-million voters registered for the 2006 local government elections.About 23-million voters are currently on the IEC's roll, following registrations for the 2009 national elections.Registration for the 2011 poll will take place on 5 and 6 February in more than 20 000 voting stations across the country. The IEC said 60 000 officials have already been trained to handle the registrations, while about 196 000 officials will be deployed on the actual day of elections.The commission's preparations got under way in September after it received clarity on the voting districts, also known as wards, from the Municipal Demarcation Board. A number of new wards were created as a result of demarcations."As an election management body, we are always mindful of the huge responsibility that rests upon us," said the IEC's chief electoral officer Advocate Pansy Tlakula. "We have to implement election management processes that will produce an outcome that will be accepted by all contesting political parties and candidates."We know that we can only do so if we are meticulous in our preparations for each election."The IEC has an excess budget of about R1-billion (US$147-million) for the 2010/11 financial year, which should enable it to acquire sufficient equipment to ensure a smooth voting process.South Africans who are already on the voters' roll, or those who registered for the previous elections, need not register again if they are going to vote at the same station. If they are not sure, they can ask the IEC to check if their details are still in order.New voters will include youngsters who were not yet 18 at the time of the 2009 national elections. "We encourage the youth to take a keen interest in the affairs of their local municipalities," said Lusani Mulaudzi, chairperson of the ACDP Youth Foundation.'Love your South Africa'The IEC's registration campaign has a strong focus on young voters, as their support in municipal elections is usually low. The drive was launched at a glittering event in Midrand, outside Johannesburg, on 12 January.The campaign is called 'Love your South Africa'. The commission said it hopes to inspire South Africans to vote in the elections out of a love for their country.All eligible South Africans have been called upon to register and take part in the upcoming elections. "The love for South Africa must stir each one of us to participate in these elections," Tlakula said.Political parties will soon launch their campaigns to woo voters, and earnest preparations and canvassing will start thereafter.The parties have opportunities to increase representation in eight metropolitan councils, 44 district councils and 226 local councils.There are currently six metropolitan councils in the country, but this will increase to eight on the day of elections when Mangaung in the Free State and Buffalo City in the Eastern Cape join the ranks.The metros are nodes of economic growth and have more industries compared to their district council counterparts. They include the City of Johannesburg, City of Cape Town and eThekwini in KwaZulu-Natal.Election results are expected to attract much interest, especially in the Western Cape where the African National Congress will be hoping to make a mark in the province it lost to the Democratic Alliance in 2009. read more

Gartner Predicts Strong Growth for Both Enterprise SaaS and Social Software in 2011
Cognitive Automation is the Immediate Future of… Related Posts IT + Project Management: A Love Affair This week Gartner issued forecasts for both the enterprise SaaS market and the enterprise social software market. Both are predicted to finish 2010 with strong growth and see even more growth next year. Revenue growth in enterprise SaaS and social software is evidence of three of the five biggest enterprise trends of the year: cloud, consumerization and social (the others are analytics and mobile). But some of Gartner's findings are surprising.On Tuesday Gartner forecast that spending on enterprise SaaS will hit $9.2 billion in 2010, up 15.7% from 2009's $7.9 billion in revenue. Gartner expects the enterprise SaaS market will total $10.7 billion in 2011, a 16.2% increase from 2010.Today, Gartner forecast enterprise social software revenue for 2010 will total $664.4 million, a 14.9 percent increase from last year's $578.2 million. The firm predicts that the enterprise social software market will reach reach $769.2 million in revenue next year, up 15.7 percent from this year.Gartner analyst Sharon Mertz says that initially security concerns regarding SaaS in the enterprise have diminished and SaaS businesses and computing models have matured.Some of the other trends Gartner has observed:More enterprises are procuring SaaS solutions without IT involvement, which creates new management issues and challengesSaaS deployments are getting larger. There are more deals for thousands or tens of thousands of users.Strangely, social software has the lowest adoption rate by enterprises that purchase SaaS solutions.Content, communications and collaboration (for example, web conferencing) solutions are the top selling type of SaaS, with a predicted revenue of $2.9 in 2010.Gartner analysts emphasized that SaaS should be differentiated from other cloud services, such as hosting or application management.
