CHICAGO -- Next year is here.At exactly 11:47 p.m. local time, the Chicago Cubs won the World Series title that had eluded them for 108 years. Fans who packed bars to watch the games on television near Wrigley Field -- neither of which existed back in 1908 -- erupted in cheers before swarming onto the streets just before midnight Wednesday to celebrate in the shadows of the statues of Cubs greats Ernie Banks, Billy Williams, Ron Santo and legendary announcer Harry Caray.As the game ended, the roar from inside the bars and the throng of fans on the streets was deafening. The crowds inside and out sang go Cubs go at the top of their lungs.As the celebration progressed, thousands of fans poured into the streets leading away from Wrigley, many of them singing We Are The Champions.Fans hugged each other, many of them crying. They took each others picture and pictures of themselves, and took turns writing their names and words of congratulations in chalk on Wrigleys brick walls. Some got on friends shoulders to find spots high up on the walls that were not yet covered with names.An hour after the game ended there were still thousands of people in the ballpark neighborhood, known as Wrigleyville, and there were still fireworks exploding every few minutes.This was torture, said Mike Delmanowski, a lifelong Cubs fan who flew to Chicago from California just to be surrounded by other Cubs fans. I would not have missed it for anything.I am so proud to be a part of it, said his wife, Sue, who was crying off and on from the fifth inning.Mike Dillon said all he could think about was his father, who died without ever seeing what Dillon witnessed.I came here by myself, but Im not alone at all, said Mike Dillon, 57.Craig and April Likhite drove to Chicago with their 10-year-old son, Cade, because they wanted to see history made with other fans as close to Wrigley as possible.To finally see this in my lifetime with my son here with us, it means everything, Craig Likhite said. This game with all the ups and downs showed him exactly what it is to be a Cubs fan.My dad passed away this year. He would have loved this, said Likhite, 50.Judy Pareti flew in from New York City to watch the game at Murphys Bleachers, a neighborhood sports bar in a building where her grandfather lived and where his hot dog stand was located. My dad and grandfather owned it, and I was born here, she said. I would never want to be anywhere but here for this.Liz Wolfe, a 36-year-old physical therapist, said, People always said if the Cubs win the World Series it would be like hell freezing over. Im still in shock. This is the most exciting thing in my life.Long-time Cubs fan Bob Newhart, who grew up in the Chicago area, tweeted The billy goat is dead!! As Ive said, from the beginning, Im getting too old for this! The 87-year-old comedian was alluding to the curse allegedly placed on the team during the 1945 World Series by the owner of the Billy Goat Tavern after he was told his pet goat wasnt welcome at Wrigley.The 8-7 extra-inning victory over the Indians in Cleveland came after the emptiness and bitterness of years past when the Cubs found spectacular and sometimes downright strange ways to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. The setbacks prompted the annual refrain of Wait until next year.Every Cubs fan knows those stories, starting with the 1969 team loaded with Hall of Famers that amassed a 9 1/2-game lead in mid-August before they started losing game after game in such numbers that the Miracle Mets not only caught them but ended up winning the National League East by 8 games.Then came 1984. After taking the first two games of the National League Divisional Series against the Padres at Wrigley, the Cubs needed just one win in San Diego to advance to the NLCS. They were swept in three games on the West Coast.There were other playoff losses but none as painful as in 2003 when in a where-were-you-when-it-happened moment that Cubs fans still have trouble comprehending, Steve Bartman deflected a ball that seemed destined for Moises Alous glove with the Cubs just five outs from reaching the World Series.Fans watched in horror as the Cubs fell apart, and few who left the park that night believed the team would win game seven the next night. They didnt.But that was all in the past as Cubs fans throughout Chicago celebrated into the early hours of Thursday.

The 26-year-old took a three-shot lead into the final round of the WGC-Cadillac Championship 10 days ago and moved another stroke clear when nearest challengers Adam Scott and Dustin Johnson both made early mistakes.But the World No 2 then paid the price for adopting a conservative strategy and struggled to a closing 74 as Scott recovered from a six-shot deficit to win his second tournament in succession. It was the first time McIlroy had failed to convert a lead of three shots or more after 54 holes since collapsing to a closing 80 in the 2011 Masters, but he Irishman believes he has learnt from the experience. McIlroy admits he played too conservatively in the final round of the WGC-Cadillac Championship It was a tough one because if I go out theree, I shoot 71, I win the golf tournament, McIlroy said.dddddddddddd. Doral is a tough place with the wind to play with the lead because theres danger lurking around every corner and if youre going to make mistakes, youre conscious of limiting it to a shot.I played the way I thought I needed to play, I just didnt hit close enough. I didnt have a realistic birdie chance inside 25 feet until the 12th hole. I was playing smart and hitting it to 30 feet but youre not going to make birdies, youre not going to gain ground on the field by doing that.Three bogeys on a day like that wasnt too bad but to only make one birdie I felt was my downfall and if I had to take it back, I would have played a little bit more aggressively.Watch the Arnold Palmer Invitational throughout the week live on Sky Sports 4 - your home of golf.
