SUN CITY, South Africa - A charging baboon nearly ran into Luke Donald on Friday at the Nedbank Golf Challenge. Tomas Hyka Jersey .The Englishman managed to get himself out of the way, however, and also managed to shoot a 9-under 63 to take a two-stroke lead after the second round of the European Tours season-opening tournament.With seven biridies on the first 10 holes, the former top-ranked player was one shot off Lee Westwoods course record at the Gary Player Country Club, giving himself a chance of a memorable end to a pretty average and so far winless 2014.The only time Donald panicked on the course nestled in the wilderness of northern South Africa was when a large baboon came running toward him as he made his way to his ball. Donald was warned by playing partner Shane Lowry, quickly dodged out of the way and the baboon kept going.He didnt really pay any attention to me in the end but gave me a bit of a fright when Shane said, Watch out! They are big and strong and you wouldnt want to mess with them, thats for sure, Donald said. So I got well out of the way. (I) jumped pretty high.Donalds round was four strokes better than anyone else and put him at 10-under 134 overall. He leads Ross Fisher (70) by two strokes, with Alexander Levy (70) a further two shots back at 6 under.I felt very in control, said Donald, who last won in November 2013 and last claimed a title on the European Tour more than two years ago. Its been a while since I felt like that.Donald found some of the form with his putter that has been missing since he became the first player to top the end-of-season money lists in both the United States and Europe in 2011. He made nine birdies and no bogeys.South Africas top tournament stopped midway through the round for a moments silence on the anniversary of the death of Nelson Mandela, the countrys former president and Nobel Peace Prize winner.Players removed their caps and bowed their heads after a horn sounded across the course for the tribute.Brendon Todd of the United States was another big mover with a 4-under 68 to tie for sixth. Tommy Fleetwood moved into a tie for sixth with his 67, the best round after Donald.Behind Fisher and Levy, Danny Willett is fourth at 5 under and Marcel Siem is 4 under. Fleetwood, Todd, Thongchai Jaidee, Charl Schwartzel and Tim Clark are part of the tie for sixth.Westwood, a two-time Nedbank Challenge champion, improved on his opening 72 with a 2-under 70, while U.S. Open champion Martin Kaymer, off a busy 2014 schedule, slipped down to a tie for 24th in the 30-man field with a 3-over 75.There is no cut at the invitational tournament, which has a $1.25 million winners check and is the first event on the 2015 European Order of Merit schedule. T.J. Tynan Jersey . Altidore strained his left hamstring in the Americans opener against Ghana on June 16 and didnt play in their next two games.

The 18-time champions, who havent won the title since 1990, moved two points behind Arsenal after the leaders were stunned 6-3 at Manchester City on Saturday. Defending champion Manchester United trails Arsenal by 10 points after winning 3-0 at Aston Villa to avoid a third successive league loss.MADRID, Spain -- Cristiano Ronaldo scored twice in the second half to give Real Madrid a hard-fought 2-1 away win at Elche in the Spanish league Wednesday. In a lacklustre, strategic match, Elche defender Eduardo Albacar struck a free kick that David Lomban back-headed toward goal, forcing an athletic save from goalkeeper Diego Lopez in the 10th minute. Ronaldo scored from a direct free kick in the 50th minute which bounced just in front of goalkeeper Manuel Herrera, who got a touch but was unable to deflect the ball. "It was a very difficult match in which our opponents played very well and caused us some problems, and there was that goal near the end that we shouldnt have conceded," said Lopez. Ghanaian striker Richmond Boakye who is on loan to Elche from Juventus, headed a perfectly-aimed shot into goal from an Albacar cross in injury time. Madrid was then awarded a much-argued penalty one minute later as defender Pepe wrestled with Elche midfielder Carlos Sanchez in the penalty area during a free kick. Ronaldo stepped up to convert the shot, six minutes into injury time. "We have to be realists, but they have scored two goals against us from two actions that from my point of view should not have gone against us,&quuot; said Albacar. Max Pacioretty Jersey. "I end up with the sensation that they have robbed us. From having got a draw against a very good team, I go away feeling weve been mugged." Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti said that as a general rule he did not like talking about referees decisions. "Its difficult to comment because my position from the bench is not so good, but I spoke to Pepe and he told me the penalty was clear." Madrids recent star signing Gareth Bale was sidelined due to a left thigh injury sustained during training last week. Elsewhere, two goals each by Ivan Rakitic and Carlos Bacca gave Sevilla a 4-1 win over nine-man Rayo Vallecano. Adrian Gonzalez pulled one back for Rayo in the 55th Rayo lost defender Alejandro Galvez in the 65th minute on a second yellow card offence and forward Jonathan Viera in the 81st on a straight red card. An injury time goal by Brazil midfielder Jonas gave Valencia a 1-0 win over Granada. Barcelona leads the standings with Atletico Madrid second-place, also on 18 points after six matches, but on a worse goal differential. Real Madrid is third on 16 with Valencia seventh on nine, while Granada is 14th on five, Elche is 18th on three and Rayo is bottom, also on three. cheap falcons jerseys cheap ravens jerseys cheap bills jerseys cheap bears jerseys cheap bengals jerseys cheap cowboys jerseys cheap lions jerseys cheap texans jerseys cheap colts jerseys cheap jaguars jerseys cheap chiefs jerseys cheap rams jerseys cheap dolphins jerseys cheap vikings jerseys cheap saints jerseys cheap giants jerseys cheap jets jerseys cheap eagles jerseys cheap steelers jerseys cheap 49ers jerseys ' ' ' |
