Jim Slater had a season high

SOUTHPORT, England -- Mo Martin has a plan for every golf course she plays, and its working at Royal Birkdale. The 31-year-old American is among the shortest hitters in womens golf, so she figured out the widest part of the fairways and keeps hitting them. It has produced 10 birdies in two days, a pair of 3-under 69s, and a three-shot lead going into the weekend at the Ricoh Womens British Open. "Its always nice when your plan pans out," Martin said. "So its fun to be here." Michelle Wies plans did not include her searching for a flight home before the weekend. The U.S. Womens Open champion missed her first cut this year by not making enough birdies to account for too many times she had to scramble for par. She had rounds of 75-78. She still has that shiny trophy from her first major at home, though that was a small consolation. "It does still feel good," she said. "But Im disappointed in myself. I wanted to play well here." Martin was at 6-under 138, three shots ahead of Beatriz Recari (67) and So Yeon Ryu (70), who joined Martin as the only players to break par both days at Birkdale. Martin has never won on the LPGA Tour, and her plans figures to get a serious test over the final two days of a major, especially if the weather gets ugly. Here are five things to look for on the weekend of this LPGA major: MIGHTY MO: The UCLA grad passed her first big test Friday. She was among the last to tee off, when the wind usually is at its strongest. The 18-hole leader, Ayako Uehara, faded badly with a 44 on the back nine for a 79 to slip nine shots out of the lead. Martin produced a steady diet of fairways and greens. She was bogey-free on the front nine with two birdies. After back-to-back bogeys early on the front nine, she atoned with birdies on two par 5s for a 69. "Every hole, you have something to think about. Every single shot, you have something to think about," Martin said. "But theres fairway there, and theres green there, and thats what Im focusing on. ... My caddie and I just figured out where the widest parts of the fairway were, where I would have the best approaches into the greens." WIE AND ARNIE: Michelle Wie learned some history at Royal Birkdale on her way to missing the cut. She was on the cut line when her tee shot on the 16th went right and landed in a blackberry bush. She thought for a second she might get free relief because of a metal plaque in the ground that might impede her swing. But it wasnt in the way by mere inches. She took a penalty drop and wound up making double bogey. Wie was too disgusted to read what the plaque said. It was for Arnold Palmer, who in the 1961 British Open slashed a 6-iron out of that bush and onto the green to make par. He won by one shot to win his first British Open. And that daring move added to the lore of his go-for-broke nature that makes him such an endearing figure in the game. Wie listened to the details of Palmers shot and smiled. "Yeah," she said. "Didnt happen for me." ACCEPTING MISTAKES: So Yeon Ryu, a former U.S. Womens Open champion, ran into trouble on the second hole and took double bogey. She expects a few bad breaks, and some high numbers. The key is to move on, and that she did. Ryu didnt drop a shot the rest of the way and chalked up another solid round that put her in the hunt. "Links golf is always hard to predict," Ryu said. "Even when I hit the great shots, still can finish at the worst place. And when I hit the bad shots, still can finish close to the pin. So its really important, whatever the result, we need to accept it and just keep working. Today, I made a double bogey on the second hole, but I knew it was just unlucky. I just accepted it and then think about next holes, and it helped a lot." BAD STARTS: Lexi Thompson had the roughest start of them all. The Kraft Nabisco winner hit her opening tee shot out of bounds to the right. She reloaded and hit the next one out of bounds. The third shot was in play, but the ride was still bumpy. She made a 10. Just like that, she went from even par to 6 over. Thompson battled back with birdies and finished with a 77 to make the cut by one shot. GREAT FINISHES: Vikki Laing of Scotland was inside the cut line by one shot when she came to the par-5 17th. After a good drive, she hit 5-wood from 240 yards into the hole for an albatross, the rarest shot in golf. That gave her a 68, and she was at 2-over 146.

It was also the Jets fourth game in the last seven to go to overtime. The Jets sit four points behind Dallas for the final playoff spot. The Stars have two games in hand with a home and home series remaining on the schedule. It was the Jets 37th one-goal game of the season. The Jets have now gone four straight games without a win. The Jets now return home for three – Wednesday Vancouver (TSN, TSN 1290), New York Rangers Friday (TSN Jets, TSN 1290) and Sunday against the Stars (TSN Jets, TSN 1290). The story of the first period and the game for that matter, was the Jets penalty kill. The Jets were nailed with four minors in the first and killed them all. Al Montoya was solid in nets and the Jets penalty killers were aggressive, strong on pucks and used their speed to keep Colorado from getting set up. On the other side of the leger, Jim Slater on a breakaway drew a penalty shot only to be stopped by Semyon Varlamov. Shots in the first were 11-9 Colorado. Colorado opened the scoring at the 4:38 mark of the second as a John Mitchell pass intended for Nathan MacKinnon went off the stick of Zach Bogosian and in. The goal was initially given to MacKinnon but later changed. It stayed that way until a flurry of goals late in the period. Dustin Byfuglien on the only power play the Jets would get in the game, tied the score at one. It was his 15th of the year and sixth power play goal of the year.? He was in front of the Avs net and put home a rebound. The Jets have scored 32 power play goals. Byfuglien has been in on 22 of them. Blake Wheeler and Bryan Little drew assists, both recording their 51st points of the year. One minute, 48 seconds later Byfuglien would bank one in off Varlamov, his 16th of the year, to give the Jets the lead. Michael Frolik and Little drew assists, and with his 52nd point of the year Little sets a new single season high for points. He also moves a point ahead of Wheeler for the team scoring lead. Byfuglien has now scored the teams last three goals and has back-to-back two point games. It appeared as though the Jets would take the one goal lead into the dressing room, but with 12 seconds left in the period Andre Benoit scored off a face-off win by Mitchelll to tie the game.dddddddddddd Shots in the second were 15-12 Jets. No scoring in the third, but the Jets killed off two more penalties, ending the night six-for-six, allowing only a total of seven shots against while down a man. Going back to the game in Montreal, the Jets are now on a road run of killing 30 straight penalties.? Their road PK is number one in the NHL. Shots in the third were 10-9 Jets. Just like in regulation both teams had chances in overtime before Matt Duchene ended it with his 21st of the year at 2:33. With the goal Duchene extends his point streak to a career high eight games. Shots for the game were 35-34 Jets. The Jets created a lot of scoring chances using their speed to attack the Avalanche zone, but in the end the goal late in the second was costly. The Jets lost forward John Albert in the second with an upper body injury. Not dressed for the Jets were Paul Postma, Matt Halischuk, James Wright, Chris Thorburn, Grant Clitsome and Mark Sheifele, the last four because of injury. Bogosian led the Jets in ice time with 27 minutes, Little led the way in shots on goal with seven (a season high and ties a career single game high)? and won 15 of 23 face-offs. Jim Slater had a season high 14:54 in ice time and had five shots on goal. Mark Stuart and Evander Kane each had five hits, while Stuart led the way in penalty killing time at six minutes. It was Andrew Ladds 598th NHL game. For Coach Paul Maurice the special team totals were a bit of a concern, as the Avalanche were given six power plays to the Jets one. “Our penalty kill was outstanding and our power play was 100 percent,” Maurice said. “Three power play goals in two games. As for the rest of it, it was a hard fought game. We had some back luck in front of the net. But not a lot of complaints. We didnt give up a whole lot.” On the play of Byfuglien: “He was outstanding. He rested in the first because we couldnt get him on the ice because of all the penalties, after that he was our best player.” As for interference on the goal late in the second: “That is what I was screaming about.” ?Maurice juggled his lines with Frolik back with Little and Ladd, Slater between Wheeler and Byfuglien. “After the first couple of shifts Jim Slater was really strong, I liked that group,” he said. cheap nfl jerseys? cheap jerseys?cheap jerseys?cheap jerseys cheap nfl jerseys wholesale jerseys ' ' '
