NAPLES, Fla. cheap jerseys from china . -- PGA Champion Keegan Bradley and Brendan Steele shot a 13-under 59 in scramble play Sunday to become the first PGA Tour rookies to win the Franklin Templeton Shootout. Bradley and Steele took control with an eagle by Steele on No. 14 and a birdie on No. 15, finishing at 32-under 184 for a three-stroke victory over two teams. "We played well," Bradley said. "We got off to a slow start, kind of like we did all three days, but we played this last stretch of holes really well." Steele added: "We had so much fun that it made it a lot easier for us." Bradley and Steele had been talking about playing in Greg Normans event since the spring, and said they werent at the three-format event to "goof off." After sharing the lead with Champions Tour golfers Mark Calcavecchia and Nick Price following the first round of modified alternate shot, they were one ahead of them after Saturdays better-ball. Calcavecchia birdied No. 18 to give him and Price a 61, moving them into a tie for second at 187 with Rory Sabbatini and Jhonattan Vegas, who shot 60. Charles Howell III and Justin Leonard, and 2009 champions Jerry Kelly and Steve Stricker tied for fourth another shot back. "We didnt hit a lot of good iron shots today," Price said. "We didnt put the ball close enough to the hole. We put a lot of pressure on our putting." Bradley, the reigning PGA Championship winner, and Steele made seven straight birdies from Nos. 6 to 13, then Steele made an eagle putt from off the green, and followed that up with a 4-footer on No. 15 for birdie. "That was a bonus," Steele said of the eagle. On the next hole, Steele hit a 9-iron from 135 yards -- aiming at his wife, Anastasia, who was standing in the crowd behind the green -- to three feet. "That was kind of where we couldnt really screw it up from there," Bradley said. "The shot was just spectacular." Steele and Bradley birdied Nos. 8 and 9 to put a little distance between themselves and their playing partners, who parred both holes. "They played really well together," said Price, who at 54 is a year older than Bradley (25) and Steele (28) combined. "They didnt make any mistakes." Sabbatini and Vegas birdied five of the last seven holes to come out of a logjam and grab part of second. "We played great," Sabbatini said. "We had some opportunities out there today and werent able to capitalize on them. We had a fun time and thats what its about." Bradley and Steele had a chance at the tournament record of 34 under, but parred No. 16 and 18 coming in. Bradley, the nephew of former LPGA Tour and World Golf Hall of Famer Pat Bradley, and Steele shared US$750,000 from the $3-million purse. wholesale jerseys .

The philosophy has been a lesson in frustration for opponents.BRIDGEVIEW, Ill. - New England Revolution goalkeeper Bobby Shuttleworth stopped Juan Luis Anangonos penalty kick in the first minute of stoppage time Saturday to preserve a 1-1 draw with the Chicago Fire, who matched a Major League Soccer record with their sixth straight tie. The Fire have tied each match since losing their opener. The six straight draws equaled an MLS mark last set by the Colorado Rapids in 2011.

New England (2-3-2) tied it on a penalty kick in the 31st minute when Chicago defender Patrick Nyarko pulled down Revolution defender Kevin Alston in the penalty area.

Aside from matching the league mark for consecutive ties, Chicago extended its winless streak to eight matches. The Fires last victory was the next-to-last match of last season, a 1-0 victory over Toronto. They lost last years season-closer to New York, missing the playoffs as a result. cheap jerseys cheap jerseys from china ' ' ' |
