players made worse than double-bogey, and David Duval Antworten

TROON, Scotland -- Bill Haas struck his drive on the 11th hole, immediately flung his arm to the right, and asked his caddie: Am I gonna find that?Next up was Charl Schwartzel, who leaked his tee shot even further right and onto a rail track adjacent to the fairway. Looking straight ahead, he shook his head and stuck out his right hand in a signal for another ball.Just two of the many players finding it tough at The Railway hole at the British Open on Thursday.At 482 yards, the par-4 No. 11 ranked as the hardest hole at Royal Troon, just like it did in 2004. It averaged 4.7 shots, more than one of Troons three par-5s and almost as much as the other two. Fourteen players made worse than double-bogey, and David Duval, Steven Bowditch, and Kristoffer Broberg walked off with 9s.Lets be honest, said Bubba Watson, who bogeyed No. 11, that hole fits nobodys eye.Looking out from the tee box, theres danger everywhere on the hole at the far end of the links course. First of all, its a blind tee shot with a 218-yard carry over a mass of gorse bushes covering the view of a tight fairway. A rail track runs the length of the hole to the right, with trains to and from nearby Glasgow and Ayr running in both directions about every five minutes. On the other side of the track, horses roam beside a couple of houses.Theres usually a train coming, Kevin Na said to the gallery, having backed away from a shot from the thick rough on hearing a train approach. One goes that way, and one comes back.To the left, theres more heather. And then theres the wind off the nearby Irish Sea to contend with. All in all, its a daunting shot, even for a driver of the quality of Rory McIlroy.You try to make a 4 four times this week, McIlroy said of the 11th. Then youre going to do very well.Paul Casey spent almost a minute with his caddie sizing up his drive, assessing where to aim in relation to the 20-meter-high TV camera in the distance. His tee shot ended up drifting slightly right, settling in a mound of thick rough on a downhill slope. All he could do was hack out.Matt Fitzpatrick of England was one of 10 players to shoot 7 on No. 11. He thought he struck his tee shot well, only for the wind to push it right and into a wall between the rail track and the heather.All of a sudden, the wind was off the left rather than into, Fitzpatrick said. Reload.As if the drive isnt hard enough, the green also is well protected. Theres a deep bunker on the front left of the green, which Na hit into and was forced to play out backward. Its a narrow line into the putting surface, with the wall five yards to the right of the green.Much of the carnage on No. 11 came early. Of 21 players in the first seven groups of the day, only five posted a par or better. The group containing former champions Sandy Lyle and Duval as well as British amateur champion Scott Gregory took 23 shots between them.Matt Jones of Australia was in a share of the lead on 5 under par until he met the treacherous No. 11. His tee shot landed on the train track and he had a 6.You see nothing but trouble, Jones said.Six players in the 156-man field made a birdie there, with only one -- from Richard Sterne -- coming from the morning starters when the wind was up. When the wind died down in the afternoon, Andrew Johnston and Matt Kuchar both shot 3s in the same group and there were fewer big numbers. Leader Phil Mickelson parred the hole.Expect more trouble for the rest of the week.The 11th hole is one of the toughest holes Ive ever played, Billy Horschel said. Its just a scary tee shot.

The rookies best save came with 2:17 left in the third period when he denied former Wild forward Matt Cullen from just outside of the crease on the right side. Cheap Custom Football T-shirts . It was the second consecutive win for the Pacers (2-5), who lost their first five preseason games. Jeff Teague led the Hawks (1-5) with 17 points and eight assists and Al Horford had 12 points and seven rebounds. Mike Scott scored 15 of his 17 points in the second half. http://www.customjerseysfootball.com/ . Sgt. Eric ONeal says most of the arrests at Monday nights game were for public drunkenness, though one person was taken into custody on suspicion of trying to steal a seat from the stadium.

Their experience showed Tuesday as the No. 10 Badgers blunted a Saint Louis surge to win 63-57 and advance to face West Virginia in Wednesdays finals of the Cancun Challenge.ROME -- Lazio took city bragging rights by beating Roma 1-0 Sunday in a derby to win a heated Italian Cup final and maintain its recent edge in the series. Senad Lulic scored in the 71st minute at the Stadio Olimpico after goalkeeper Bogdan Lobont failed to clear a cross from Antonio Candreva, leaving the unmarked Bosnia-Herzegovina midfielder to put the ball into the net at the far post. "This victory wont be forgotten," Lulic said. "I found myself there in the right moment. I dedicate this goal to my wife, who is pregnant." Lazio has now won four of the last five derbies, with the last meeting a 1-1 draw in April. Its sixth Italian Cup title also earned Lazio a spot in next seasons Europa League group phase. Worries of fan violence at the match were high and there were brief clashes despite the presence of thousands of police officers both inside and outside the stadium. Also, South Korean rapper PSY was met with boos and small firework explosions during a pre-game performance. Organizers responded by raising the volume while he sang his hit, "Gangnam Style," to drown out the dissent. Roma started with an attacking 4-2-3-1 lineup featuring Erik Lamela, Francesco Totti and Marquinho behind centre forward Mattia Destro. Lazio countered with a 4-5-1 spearheaded by veteran Germany forward Miroslav Klose. Klose had the first opportunity four minutes in but missed wide. Totti, Romas 36-year-old captain, had his clubs first chance in the ninth, a bouncing shot that was stopped by Lazio goalkeeper Federico Marchetti near the post. A minute later, United States midfielder Michael Bradley dribbled free and had a clear look at the target but sent his angled effort wide.dddddddddddd. Klose had an even better chance in the 35th but his close-range header was blocked by Lobont. Roma also wasted a header in the 45th when Destros effort from within the box sailed over the bar. Five yellow cards were handed out in the first half, with both sides playing very physically. The physical battle continued at the start of the second half and Lazio captain Cristian Ledesma exited on a stretcher in the 53rd following contact with Destro. Eventually the match opened up and there was end-to-end action, with Totti producing three more shots and Klose failing to redirect a volley cross from Mauri, Ledesmas replacement, in the 68th. Two minutes after Lulics goal, Roma thought it had scored with a free kick from Totti that bounced off Marchetti and the underside of the bar but the ball did not go in. In the 90th, Panagiotis Tachtsidis was shown a red card on Romas bench for protests and Totti then received a yellow, also for protests. In all, eight yellow cards -- four for each side -- and one red were handed out. Ahead of the game, police confiscated bags of knives, rocks, clubs and other homemade weapons hidden outside the stadium. Still, fans inside the stadium set off loud fireworks throughout the match and the start of the second half was delayed when smoke bombs were thrown onto the pitch. As for the reception during PSYs performance, the rapper appeared embarrassed but told fans afterward in Italian, "I love Italy." It was unclear if the boos were of a racist nature, although fans for both clubs have come under attack this season for racist chanting. ' ' '
