SCOTTSDALE, Ariz.
Philip
Rivers Youth Jersey . -- The Smallrus finally hoisted a big PGA Tour
trophy. Kevin Stadler, the 33-year-old son of major champion Craig "The Walrus"
Stadler, won the Phoenix Open on Sunday for his first PGA Tour victory. Stadler
won when playing partner Bubba Watson missed a five-foot par putt on 18. "It was
a little weird way to win a golf tournament," Stadler said. "I fully expected
him to make the putt. I would have rather made mine to win it." Stadler closed
with a 3-under 68 for a one-stroke victory over Watson and Graham DeLaet of
Weyburn, Sask. Watson shot 71, and DeLaet had a 65. "He beat me," Watson said.
"Hes a great player." Stadler won in his 239th tour start, earning a spot in the
Masters -- a tournament his father won in 1982. The Stadlers are the ninth
father-son winners in tour history and will be the first to play in the same
Masters. "Its going to great for me because its really my last one," said
Craig Stadler, a 13-time PGA Tour winner with nine Champions Tour victories. "I
kept saying, When he gets in, thats my last one. ... Im proud of him. Its
awesome." Kevin Stadler finished at 16-under 268 at TPC Scottsdale, his home
course. Raised in Colorado, he played in Denver Broncos colours, wearing an
orange shirt and blue pants and hat. What was he thinking when Watson was
standing over his par putt on 18? "How long the playoff was going to take and
how long until I can watch the football game?" Stadler said. After Stadler and
Watson each saved par after hitting into the water on the par-5 15th, Stadler
tied Watson for the lead with a par on the par-3 16th hole. Watson hit into the
front left bunker on the stadium hole and his six-footer missed to the left. At
the 347-yard 17th, they each drove the green and two-putted for birdie from 90
feet -- Watson holing out from 18 feet and Stadler from 5. On the par-4 18th,
Stadler hit his 110-yard approach to the back right pin to 10 feet. Watson drove
into the right rough and hammered his 120-yard second over the green. Watson
bladed his shot from the trampled rough into the bank next to the green and it
ran five feet past the hole. After Stadler missed his birdie try and tapped in
for par, Watsons par try slid by the left side. "I thought I hit a good putt,
but obviously I misread that, too," Watson said. Stadler birdied the par-4 ninth
to take a one-stroke lead over Watson, but fell behind with a double bogey on
the par-4 11th. Stadler took a penalty stroke for an unplayable lie after
driving into a Buckhorn Cholla and missed a 4-foot bogey try. "Cactus and short
putt and all that was on one hole," Stadler said. "Eleven has had my number for
years. I butcher that hole every year." Stadler likely will move up high enough
in the world ranking to get one of the last spots in the 64-man Match Play
Championship this month outside Tucson. Stadlers previous biggest win was in
Australia in the European Tours 2006 Johnnie Walker Classic. In that event, he
hit a 3-iron to a foot for an eagle on the final hole for a two-stroke victory.
He also won the Argentine Open that winter and has four Nationwide Tour wins.
"Its been a long time since I won anything," Stadler said. "Its pretty special."
Watson is winless since the 2012 Masters. "I was a challenging day," Watson
said. "Again, its the same thing, just waiting on every tee box and waiting on
every shot." Hunter Mahan and Japans Hideki Matsuyama tied for fourth at 14
under. Mahan, the 2010 winner, finished with a 68, and Matsuyama shot 69. DeLaet
bogeyed the 15th after hitting into the water, but rallied with birdies on the
final two holes. He also tied for second last week at Torrey Pines. "I have been
playing well for the last few months," DeLaet said. "I really feel like I worked
super hard in the off-season. Its nice to see it paying off." Phil Mickelson
closed with a 71 to tie for 42nd at 3 under. Lefty was making his 25th
appearance in the event he won in 1996, 2005 and 2013. "My game is not far off,
even though the score says that it is," Mickelson said. "It was just a fraction
off." He showed no signs of the back pain that forced him to withdraw at Torrey
Pines, and will play next week at Pebble Beach. "Back feels great," Mickelson
said. The event drew an estimated 563,008 fans, breaking the seven-day record of
538,356 set in 2008. The tournament drew a golf-record 189,722 on Saturday and
60,232 on Sunday.

Antonio
Gates Chargers Jersey . -- Chris Jones and Louisville have done a
tremendous job protecting the basketball this season and thats led to easy
victories.

allowing only two runners from a diluted Twins lineup to reach second base.
Mike Moustakas and Jarrod Dyson hit RBI singles in the second inning against
Kevin Correia (4-10), and that was all Vargas needed.LONDON - Tony Romo
practiced Thursday for the first time since arriving in London, and the Dallas
Cowboys quarterback says his injured back is getting better.Romo missed last
Sundays loss to the Arizona Cardinals because of his third back injury in 18
months. He skipped Wednesdays practice following the teams arrival Tuesday.Well
keep taking it day by day and just see what happens, Romo said. Its improving
each day and I think we did some things today that were positive. Just keep
going in that direction, I think well have a good chance (of playing Sunday).The
Cowboys (6-3) play the Jacksonville Jaguars (1-8) at Wembley Stadium in the last
of three regular-season games in London this year. They have lost their last two
games, however, with backup Brandon Weeden playing last weekend.Romo has
fractures in two small bones in his back. The injury is unrelated to a herniated
disk last year or to off-season surgery to remove a cyst earlier in 2013.The
quarterback said Thursday he was still a little sore, but called it normal stuff
and said his back loosened up during practice.If youre always waiting to feel
great to play in every game you play in, youre only going to pllay a couple of
games a year, he said.
Melvin
Ingram Womens Jersey. The best players are the guys who are able to play
at the same level with stuff going on.Even though Romo practiced, Dallas coach
Jason Garrett is still not sure who will start.We would never put a player in
harms way. Obviously its a very physical sport that we play, Garrett said. He
(Romo) has to be functional. He has to be able to protect himself.Against the
Cardinals, Weeden threw two interceptions and had one late touchdown. So for the
Cowboys, who have a bye next week, getting Romo on the field is a priority if
they want to end the two-game losing streak.Even if he is in a little pain.No
one cares once you actually step on the field on Sunday whether youre banged up
or not, Romo said. Its just about what you do when youre out there.Each day you
just get incrementally better, you improve. Im feeling better. I think its
getting to a point where you can manage it.Cowboys owner Jerry Jones watched
practice and said Romo had a comfortable flight to London.Im anticipating him
playing, he said. Have no reason to think that he wont.___Online:AP NFL website:
