overpowering the team that has dominated the d Antworten

ST. LOUIS -- Kenny Perry has been here before, and been crushed by disappointment. Whatever happens in the final round of the Senior PGA Championship, he plans on leaving with his head held high. If his two-stroke lead over two-time champion Jay Haas doesnt hold up Sunday, Perry said, "Its not going to be the end of the world." "I played beautifully for three rounds," Perry said. "Im just going to go out there and play like I did, and point and shoot." The 52-year-old Perry is close to his first senior major title in a career known more agonizing almosts in the 2009 Masters and 1996 PGA than his 16 total tournament victories and $34 million in winnings. He was at 10 under at Bellerive Country Club, which held up fine after a rain delay of more than two hours before the last twosome of Perry and Russ Cochran teed off. Perry is the lone player in the field to break 70 all three rounds, capitalizing on booming drives and finesse. On Saturday, he chipped in from about 30 feet from an awkward lie for an eagle on No. 4. "I couldnt stand there all day and do that again," Perry said. "That was a one in a million shot." The odds did not help Perry when he faltered and lost in a playoff to Mark Brooks in the PGA. When it happened again in the Masters, it hurt a lot more. Perry led by two strokes with two holes to go but finished with a pair of bogeys, ending a streak of 22 holes without one. Then he bogeyed the second playoff hole and lost in a playoff to Angel Cabrera. "That Masters loss put a big dent in my life," Perry said. "So this right here, this is awesome. Im just going to try to do my best and hopefully the cards will fall my way this time." Perry had the eagle, five birdies and four bogeys in the third round, mixing spectacular shots with some stumbles and doing enough of the right things for a 3-under 68. Though Perry had just one bogey the first two rounds, his closest pursuer sees no weakness. He has dominated on the three par-5 holes, playing them in 8 under. "It was nice to stay within a few of Kenny," Haas said. "It looks like hes really going to be tough to beat." Haas finished with a pair of birdies for a 67. Cochran was three strokes back after rallying for two birdies on the back nine for an even-par 71, and Rod Spittle was four shots back after a 67. The 59-year-old Haas, who won the championship in 2006 and 08, grew up in nearby Belleville, Ill., and is a bit of a local favourite. He shot 66 in the first round to share the lead and credited a telephone tip from coach Billy Harmon about keeping his right shoulder down for helping to steady his game. "I think I missed maybe one or two fairways and just hit some real quality shots," Haas said. "So, that was a lot of fun." Haas has played Bellerive a couple dozen times, but doesnt consider it much of an advantage. "Golf is such a different game than playing at your home court or something with the fans," Haas said. "I dont know what it makes a big deal of a difference." Perry had a three-stroke lead after the chip for eagle from an awkward lie on No. 4, with both feet in a greenside bunker and the ball on the lip. He was aiming at the gallery and just hoping to get it on the green. "When I hit it, man, it went straight toward the flag," Perry said. "And it hit and checked a little bit and rolled right in there like a putt." The lead was down to one after he followed up with consecutive bogeys, but he was back up by four over Cochran and Haas after birdies on Nos. 7 and 8, and no one got closer than two strokes on the back nine. Defending champion Roger Chapman shot 66 for the second time, matching the tournaments best, and was 1 under. Bernhard Langer shot a bogey-free 67 for the second straight day to climb back to even par for the tourney after opening with a 79. "I think that the first two rounds youre a bit under pressure to put in a good defence and probably thinking about just making the cut was the wrong attitude," Chapman said. "Now I made the cut, the pressures off a bit, just go out and play and thats what I did." Spittle shot 69 in the first round after a rocky start, going 3 over par the first three holes.

Dallas hasnt ruled out the star quarterback for Sunday nights game against Philadelphia, but all signs point to Romos back injury pushing Kyle Orton into the starting role after two years of limited play as the backup. Surely Ortons name isnt the first that comes to mind for fans wanting a change after years of damaging interceptions, fumbles or, most infamously, the field goal flub when Romo dropped the snap on a kick that could have won his first playoff game in 2006. OAKLAND, Calif. -- For the past few years, the Oakland Raiders have been building a team they hoped could thrive on the big stage.With an offensive line that dominated the trenches and a defense much improved from a porous start to the season, they sure looked the part Sunday night.Latavius Murray ran for 114 yards and three touchdowns and the Raiders showed they were ready for prime time, beating the defending Super Bowl champion Denver Broncos 30-20.Were growing to expect success, coach Jack Del Rio said. We know were a good team.In what was being billed as the biggest game in Oakland since the team went to the Super Bowl following the 2002 season, the Raiders (7-2) put together a complete effort to overpower the Broncos (6-3) and take over sole possession of first place in the AFC West.Derek Carr threw for 184 yards and did not turn the ball over, Khalil Mack had two sacks, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery and the Raiders outrushed Denver 218-33 behind a dominant performance in the trenches.Thats what we do, left tackle Donald Penn said. We try to take our will out on people and today it looked real good. Some days it doesnt but today it looked real good. We have to keep building. We have to get more consistent.The performance was to the delight of an energetic crowd at the Coliseum, excited to host a prime-time Sunday night game for the first time in more than a decade. After 13 straight seasons without a playoff berth or winning record, the Raiders have shown they are ready to contend in the AFC in the second season under Del Rio after overpowering the team that has dominated the division in recent years.We gave up 200 yards rushing today, linebacker Brandon Marshall said. Thats definitely not the mark of a great defense, we cant just get run over.Oakland got off to its best start in 15 years by beating up on lesser teams, but the win over the defending champion Broncos showed the progress the franchise has made since starting 0-10 two years ago.Trevor Siemian looked shaky at times for Denver but did throw two touchdown passes, including a short pass behind the line that Kapri Bibbs turned into a 69-yard touchdown catch and run in the fourth quarter.ddddddddddddBut Oakland still led by 10 points despite that defensive breakdown and held on for the win.REPRIEVE: Carr played a smart game for the most part but did get bailed out by one potential big mistake. On the play after Mack recovered a fumble at the Denver 39 following his strip sack , Carr threw down the right sideline for fullback Jamize Olawale. But the ball went right to T.J. Ward for an apparent interception. A replay review showed the ball hit the ground and Oakland kept the ball, setting up Murrays third score.TONE SETTERS: The Raiders much-maligned defense started fast, forcing Denver into four straight three-and-outs to open the game. It was the first time since 2012 that Oakland didnt allow the opponent to record a first down on the opening four drives. Siemian started the game 1 for 8 for 4 yards before connecting on four straight completions on the fifth drive capped by a 36-yard TD pass to Jordan Norwood.FAST START: Oaklands offense also started quickly. Carr threw for 108 yards in the opening quarter -- the second most against Denver in the first quarter in the past three years -- and Murray scored on two short TD runs in the second quarter for a 20-10 halftime lead. That was the most points scored against the Broncos in the first half since Cincinnati also had 20 in a 37-28 win on Dec. 22, 2014 -- a span of 29 games including the playoffs.DANCING PUNTER: Oaklands Marquette King had two straight punts in the third quarter downed at the 2 by Andre Holmes. King then punctuated each with a celebratory dance not usually seen from punters. In a season full of excessive celebration flags, King was not penalized on either dance.I just love life, King said.---For more NFL coverage: http://www.pro32.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP-NFL ' ' '
