Coverage of Round 3 at Royal Birkdale
Golf's oldest championship, the British Open , gets underway at Royal Birkdale today. Kuchar's bogey-free 5-under 65 not only gives him a share of the lead, it's the lowest score he's ever shot in 153 career rounds in his major career. [Full Article...]
Spieth takes two-shot lead into weekend of the Open Championship
The player going through the motions on the front nine Thursday looked nothing like the victor of four major championships, including this very Open. It was a fine return to the big stage for Poulter, who had not appeared at a major since the Masters previous year and had to settle for a role as a television commentator at the Open 12 months ago while sidelined through injury.

McIlroy's caddie digs him out of a hole
That was the case early on Thursday at the Open Championship, when he got some choice words of wisdom from his caddie. But even though high winds have frustrated players Friday morning, they may have gotten the better side of the draw. The Englishman shares third with Kopeka, who failed to make a birdie but made only two bogeys in his 72, while Ramsay also had 16 pars on his scorecard with one... [Full Article...]
Lealiifano to make emotional return against the Canes
Larkham said he had been optimistic about Lealiifano's chances of returning. It's something Brumbies fans, and no doubt Christian himself have been waiting for, for some time. That would have placed them third behind the Lions and Crusaders on a combined table but, instead, was only good enough for fifth behind the four conference winners. [Full Article...]
Open Championship leaderboard has Americans on top after opening round
It took him to one under but three bogeys around the turn dragged him back and he goes into the weekend at two over. Spieth was at 6-under 134. Kuchar, a strapping 39-year-old who has never won a major, produced a mixed bag of a round with four bogeys and three birdies and endured a particularly disappointing finish, dropping shots at two of the last three holes.

Derrick Rose In Talks To Join Cavs On 1-Year Deal
However, if they do acquire Rose , the team's total luxury tax bill would increase to $78.2 million. For teams looking to improve, it's hard to buy in on a point guard who hasn't been part of a winning team for a while. Even just limiting his baggage to the on-the-court variety, Rose's game hasn't aged well in the modern game. As for Clark, he could help the Lakers' outside shooting... [Full Article...]
An All-American start to the British Open
It is kind of a odd line". As an example, when Royal Birkdale last hosted the Open Championship in 2008, the weather was horrific at times. If he can do that, it would mean a 10th different victor in 10 majors, although it would end a remarkable run of the last seven being won by first-time major winners. [Full Article...]
Kyrie Irving interested in joining the San Antonio Spurs
Irving made the request last week to owner Dan Gilbert , said the people who spoke on condition of anonymity because the team is not commenting on the star's demands. "Does he go to Cavs without Kyrie & LBJ gone in 2018?" The potential return for any deal involving Irving is uncertain, given that many players of his caliber either have already been dealt or simply aren't available. [Full Article...]
