The Swede ended his wait for a first major title by coming out on top in an epic duel with Phil Mickelson at Royal Troon last year. Stenson has not won a title since that success in Scotland and the world number eight plans to celebrate by hitting new heights if he triumphs on the golden links in Southport this weekend.

Curry looked strong as he practiced Thursday wearing a protective brace over his sprained left knee, which has sidelined him since the injury March 23 — the same day he returned from a six-game absence because of a hurt right ankle. Coach Steve Kerr is calling Curry questionable for Saturday. That could change if the two-time NBA MVP still feels fine Friday and is fine after one more day of full practice before the Pelicans visit Oracle Arena to begin the best-of-seven series....
But Stephen Curry’s rise to stardom wasn’t easy by any stretch of the imagination. He wasn’t a highly scouted prospect in high school and no major colleges offered him a scholarship. Curry’s marksman-like shooting and high basketball IQ weren’t enough to convince college coaches to overlook his wiry frame and short height. Davidson College, near his hometown of Charlotte, gave him an opportunity and it was one of the best decisions they ever made....

One night after that victory in Europe, Kerr, with apologies to his mother, profanely paraphrased Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp to describe the Warriors’ victory over the Rockets in Game 5 of their NBA Western Conference playoffs series. “Our guys are f—ing giants. That was an unbelievable victory tonight,” Kerr said after the reigning champs held on to beat Houston 104-99 and take a 3-2 series lead.

The eyes are now set on the upcoming endeavours in the subcontinent – which includes a Test series against Sri Lanka this year – a place that demands a change of plans in the line-up that for the past few years has contained five batsmen, one all-rounder, three pacers, and one spinner. When O’Keefe takes to the field at the Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG) on January 3, it would be the first time that Australia would field a spin duo since the time Shane Warne and Stuart MacGill worked in tandem at the venue....

The former unified world middleweight champion is hellbent on securing a trilogy fight with Canelo, but the relatively-unknown Rolls could play spoiler to that plan with a huge upset....
Tony Stewart Stewart is coming off the worst injury of his career as he recovers from a broken right tibia and fibula suffered in an Aug. 5 sprint-car wreck. While he talks about making a full recovery, there will be little convincing fans and his team until they see him perform.

Shoulder stiffness is, in fact, one of the conditions associated with Parkinson’s disease, a neurodegenerative disorder caused by a lack of dopamine in the brain. Dopamine is a chemical that helps you to have smooth, coordinated muscle movements. The bones, ligaments, and tendons that make up your shoulder joint are encased in connective tissues. Frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis) occurs when these tissues thicken and tighten around the shoulder joint, making it harder to move....
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi put forward a unanimous consent request to raise direct payments that was quickly blocked by Republicans in a rare Christmas Eve session of the House.

They are each doing their chances of playing at the World Cup no harm and Stoger feels their respective qualities complement each other very well....
