>> hello warm welcome to the news hour from doha. coming up, hundreds of rohingya and bangladeshi migrants make it to indonesia but otherwise lose their lives on the journey. >> houthi rebels shell a city near the saudi border. >> rival groups in central african republic sign a deal

after can applicants that kill thousands. ♪ >> french music protected by french law but can it hold back the english invasion? >> many are sick and starving, more than a thousand migrants from myanmar and bangladesh, most row hike something muslims are the latest to be rescued from those arriving in malaysia and indonesia. the rohingya faced decades of persecution in myanmar and aren't even recognized at citizens there. we have met some of those who survived the ordeal. >> paying more than $2,000 to save her children's lives she says she was desperate to escape

myanmar, after her relatives were killed by soldiers. she never imagine would the traffickers would starve and beat her family, holding them ransom until their mother paid for release. her 8-year-old son died before they could escape. >> my son was fine in the bolt but fell sick in the jungle due to starvation. he vomited and had diarrhea. there was no drinking water in the boat. >> she and her children arrived in kuala lampur two weeks ago joining other rohingya muslims who fled. more than 2,000 were rescued off the coast hungry, exhausted and frightened after their ordeal. advocates for migrants are urging regional governments to take action. >> let us now come together.

the country has to be offered has to be transferrent, you must start having good governance and most of all this can only be solved if we cut corruption once and for all. >> thailand, a transit point is traitenning security to try and stop the trade. the malaysian government is strengthening borders and cracking down on migrants. >> governments in southeast asia are under pressure to respond to this rising influx of desperate migrants. without an end to the ethnic tensions in myanmar human rights activists say more are going to risk their lives in search of a better life. al jazeera, kuala lampur. >> we'll hear from side hide leer in bangkok but first in myanmar. >> the myanmar government do not

recognize the rohingya. three years ago things got got worse when violence broke out between them and another ethnic community. more than 140,000 people mainry with the rohingya were displaced. they had to move into camps and are till there more than three years later. the children aren't allowed to go to school, depend on ate. they see no future here. unless the government's policies change, more are likely to get on boats to feed the country. is there indication the government policies will change? not really. the government has said they can

apply for citizenship but whether or not they will get that when the government has had a policy of not recognizing them is another matter. >> it started nine days ago when the thai government started an operation clamping down on traffickers down in the saw theern parts of the country. the reason it started then because just a few days before that a mass grave was found at a hidden camp. traffickers were trying to extort more money from their families. sometimes they stayed there for months. the government is clamping down on that. we were down in these jungles and saw firsthand what the government are doing as they have more military and police in these jungles. they've actually put barred wire from a route. they are going to stay there overnight to try to prevent

trafficking going on. they have arrested a few local officials. they have over 50 arrest warrants out. they have reassigned police. all this going on has also kind of backed up what would normally be cheese channels that have been going over the last several years. that has had an impact on the ships waiting out at sea to bring their human cargo ashore. what has most likely happened, believed to have happened, was because they knew they couldn't make landfall here in thailand, those ships went south to malaysia and indonesia. >> yemen's houthi rebels in saudi arabia are battlingual their border. >> you have the a day before a saudi proposed ceasefire is due to begin. the houthis shelled a saudi village. two were killed.

>> u.n. officials expressed concern over the saudi-led airstrikes. 1400 people have died since mid march. >> the house of former president ali abdullah saleh has been the target of airstrikes for a second day after he pledged allegiance to houthi rebels. we spoke to yemen's foreign minister. he said the former president is only looking out for his own interests.

interests. >> morocco said one of its fighter jets taking part in the saudi-led air campaign in yemen has gone missing. the houthis aired these pictures of the downed jet. it's not known whether the pilot ejected or not. let's get more on what's happening in yemen live from riyadh. muhammed, first of all more airstrikes in yemen but also more houthi attacks on saudi territory. tell us what's been happening.

>> after the attacks over the night on nisran, another attack by the houthis shelling in the southwestern side of the border between yemen and saudi arabia. this happened a few hours ago. it has caused the killing of a saudi citizen and the injuring of four other people there. the houthis have escalated activities along the border and that is what the saudis described has led to an intensification of airstrikes on saada amounted its surroundings. the international community were talking about the suffering of civilians and so on. these are signs that a kind of of lessening of the fighting as the countdown continues towards

the timing of truce in 24 hours from now. what we see is more and more escalation, the houthis boasting about what they called allegedly the downing of the shutdown of shooting down of the more rock can fighter jet over the night and also talking for the first time outspokenly about their alliance with president ali abdullah saleh. his statement yesterday confirms his alliance with them -- >> i just wanted to ask you about that jet that you're talking about there. the ceasefire due to begin on tuesday, the fact that the jet has gone missing and no one knolls where the pilot is, is that going to affect the ceasefire in any way? >> well, sure, this is one of the factors that may affect the ceasefire and also more even, the recent shelling by the

houthis. the disappearance of the jet is complicating things here because we understand that the arab coalition are going to try probably to make some search there on the ground to try to find the pilot if he's still alive, probably to rescue any debris they can there from the aircraft. this is a very complicated situation, because the aircraft apparently came down in the area of saada. it is mountainous very difficult to access for the coalition troops, and it's all. these are all scienceles that, you know, instead of as i said indications of a truce coming, these are indications of more war and i have also to remind that the saudis have sent a massive additional force today to the border with yemen. >> ok, thanks for that, jump dating us from riyadh there. >> the king of saudi arabia and other gulf leaders are declining

an invitation from president obama for a summit of gulf leaders on thursday at camp david. saudi arabia's foreign minister said that coincides with the humanitarian ceasefire in yemen. the king of bahrain has also declined. arab leaders are worried improving tiles with the u.s. and iran over a possible nuclear deal. >> more to come on the news hour including protests in burundi against the president's reelection plans. >> after named at golf's most overrated player, fowler has the last laugh at the championship. >> rival groups of fighters in central african republic have signed a peace deal.

it's hold the peace forum will end two years of fighting between muslims and christians. thousands have been killed and a million displaced. ten rival groups say they're committed to disposing of their guns and renouncing violence. fighters found guilty of the worst crimes will be refused amnesty. there's also an agreement to release child soldiers and sex slaves. there could that 10,000 of them. we have this report. >> the psychological scars or children is a lasting legacy of the conflict. they are half the population. fighting made orphans of these children and turned thousands more into soldiers. some of the rebels as well as politicians and religious leaders agreed to draw a line under the violence on paper. in reality it will be impossible for some to forgot the brutality of the last two

years. on the face of it, the crisis in the central african republic pits muslims against christians, but the united nations says the root causes were post and government mismanagement. in that religion was a convenient excuse used by some sides in the fighting. selica rebels who forced the president from power and installed a muslim penalty aren't all muslim. anti ball da rebels aren't all christian. the transitional government is now trying to encourage muslims and christians to interact peacefully again. community leaders are busy organizing interfaith prayers football matches and other events yet animosity remains rife. surprising attacks continue. international peace keepers are trying to keep rival militia's

apart. the u.n. is pushing for elections this summer. it's a tall order for a country basically holding itself together. al jazeera. >> joining us live from london is amnesty international spokeswoman susanna flood. the peace deal encouraging news but how its implemented is key isn't it and what to do with the fighters who have said they will lay down their arms and stop fighting. >> exactly. this is the best news we've heard so far for peace. we've got people signing up to this peace accord. the reality is going to be the implementation. these are fighters who made their identity fighting on the ground for the last couple of years and there's got to be a proper attempt to integrate them in society not just ask them to lay down their arms. >> what about the child soldiers and sex slaves. there's an agreement they will be released but is the country

going to be able to deal with their trauma and reintegrate them? >> that is one of the huge challenges they face. child soldiers need to be treated carefully when they're taken out of conflict and need to be aware of looking how they can reintegrate in society. they need a chance to go back to school to get education. this is a complex issue. this is a country utterly devastated by the fighting for the last two years. this is where you need to rebuild, give children a chance to be educated again give them a real sense of identity. there are huge challenges ahead in making any kind of peace accord work. we've got to believe it is possible. >> one of the things that the deal says specifically is that there will be no amnesty for anyone who is suspected of committing war crimes, but we know just how difficult it is to bring people like that to justice, especially after prolonged conflict. do you think that there will be

accountability and justice for some of the terrible things that have gone on in c.a.r.? >> if you look at history of everything that's happened in the c.a.r., the problem is there never have been any kind of justice or accountability over the years for all the crimes that have happened. if the country has a serious chance of moving forward there has to be proper investigation into what happened and clear justice and accountability for the people who have been victims of war crimes, crimes against humanity, those who had their lives destroyed in the conflict. >> thank you for that. >> thank you. >> a turkish ship has been attacked off the coast of libya one of its officers killed. the cargo vessel was heading to the port of tobruk. the ship was bombarded after it was warned not to approach the eastern city. we have more from istanbul.

>> this was a turkish owned vessel sailing under a cook's island flag from spain to libya carrying a son assignment of board. the vessel was shelled from land 30 nautical miles off the libyan coast. as the vessel turned up to sale away from libya it then came under attack from the air and the turkish foreign ministry said the captain was killed in that attack. the background to this is back in february, there are two governments in libya and back in february, the prime minister of the tobruk-based government accused the turkish government of supporting the tripoli-based government, so therefore a decision was taken by this tobruk based government recognized by the intercept and internationally to exclude turkish company from libyan

state contracts. at the time those accusations were made in february, the turkish government accused the interim government of making hostile and unfounded comments against our country. today, in reaction to this attack against this turkish owned vessel, the turkish foreign minister representative said it strongly condemns this attack in international waters. >> people smugglers have been taking advantage of the instability in libya. it's become a transit point for those trying to reach europe. 110,000 migrants traveled the route last year. 26,000 arrived in italy's ports in april alone. germany, the island and u.k. have sent practical ships to rescue the might go grants, overwhelming the coast guard. member states take in refugees under a quota scheme. any new migrant quota scheme, it

sounds good, but i'm assuming it's proving difficult to get consensus among the e.u. block. >> yeah, this is going to be a really contentious one, 28 member states will of to sign off on it. water going to hear the details on wednesday when the commissioner in charge of migration will reveal this document in which broadly speaking, we're hearing there's going to be a recommended mandated compulsory legally enforced quota system where migrants reaching the shores of southern europe will be automatically distributed throughout the 28e.u. member states each state's number or quota will be calculated depending on the strength of that e.u. state's economy, how many unemployed people then already have and the previous record that state has on voluntarily taking migrants in.

the germans very much in support of it, so are the squeezed, because they take the lion's share of these poor unfortunate people so far. hungary and britain not keen at all, saying we will reject any mandatory system. don't forgot, david cameron just won an election on the base of embrace front and center one of the issues he wants to renegotiate. it's going to be contentious. >> that's going to take hammering out. the eu looking at dealing with people smugglers pushing for more military action against them. >> that's going to turn out to be rather controversial, as well. the european union's foreign policy chief wants a chapter seven u.n. security council resolution supporting the use of

european union military force business model of the libyan smugglers, meaning the e.u. or whichever countries want to participate in this military process will get the right and will seek the mandate for attacking the smugglers themselves. the smuggler it is boats and infrastructure out from with problems, according to the critics, how do you know which bolt is a legitimate fishing boat versus a boated about to be used in one of these debt treat journeys. what happens to the migrants if you take apart the infrastructure. they've stranded and left in libya, so very controversial proposal, but as far as we know has widespread support within the e.u. if only, i think because many e.u. states want to be seen to

be doing more to try and get a grip on this desperate problem. >> thanks for that. >> experts in ballistic missile technology say north korea made an important step with its test launch from a submarine but remains years away from an attack on the united states. last week's launch is causing concerns. >> the technology is about striking invisibly from under the water, but north korea wanted the world to see this launch presided over by kim jong-un. state media called it having a time bomb strapped to the enemy's back, the ability to fire a missile undetected from the seas. in seoul, there was a flurry of high-level meetings, the defense ministry calling the development a very serious and concerning matter. >> we urge north korea to immediately stop developing this

technology, which hinders the stability of this peninsula and northeast asia. >> in the past, north korea's fleet of small submarines has been used for infiltration attacks into south korean territory. there was an attack on a warship in 2010, killing 43 south korean sailors. the defense ministry says this test only appears to have lobbed the missile a short distance above the surface of the water. it is required for a rethink of south korea's strategy to defend itself from a strike. >> a so called kill chain preemptively striking just before launch and interceptors. >> they cannot detect that threat, while have to find the

sub and kill the sub before it launches any ballistic missiles. >> submarine movements are tracked in concert with its u.s. allies. there are still plenty of unknowns, whether north korea has sufficient subs of size and range to be a credible threat, whether it has managed to miniaturize a nuclear warhead for use on a missile, these are concerns to its neighbors. >> belgium suspended funds for elections in burundi after weeks of protest against the president's plans to run for a third term. belgium i also the former colonize er and leading donor. hundreds of women demonstrated against the president. the current leader formally registered his candidacy on friday. opponents say it violates the peace deal that ended burundi's civil war in 2005. patricia is the author of gender

and genocide in burundi. she expects elections will be postponed. >> the conditions on the ground do not suggest that the elections can actually free and fair elections can actually take place. i think the situation is quite grave. many protestors have been killed and opposition parties are having difficulty campaigning it is considered intimidation of critics of the government as the president plans to run for a third term. i hope it will not escalate into violence. that would be tragic for the people who have long yearned for peace. they went through 10 years of civil war and 10 years of democracy without what we could calm the absence of violence.

in the last 10 years the people suffered enormously, living conditions have not improved, so it would be tragic if the people of burundi were to be faced by another period of civil war. >> let's get the weather now with rob and starting in the u.s., a lot of flooding in texas, i gather. >> yes the lone star state is rather wet. your satellite picture over the last 36 hours look at dallas. the wet land moves through texas. they never seem to disappear just reform. this i also flooding to the west of dallas. this operation long term is still looking for people. so far no one dead, but many evacuated. that's huge flooding from a few thunderstorms by the look of it. we have got to figure to prove thank you very much it was 140 millimeters in the last two

days. that's what causes that amount of flooding is that much rain falling in a fairly short time. this line of thunderstorms still exists on a cold front. behind it, the air is much colder. this is the reason for the storms, the contrast. follow your eyes north wards. in the middle of the low in south dakota, a place you don't expect to find too violent weather, this happened, a major tornado came in quickly and moved through fairly quickly, as well. the evacuations took place. this is dellmont in south dakota. that's finished now but the stormy weather is still going east wards to catch up with what is happening in south carolina, now a tropical depression. >> still to come here on al jazeera. >> it has to be a bad omen, maybe the gods are angry. >> nepal's rescue mission grows from saving lives to protecting

heritage. >> chiles president is to announce a new cabinet after corruption scandals, but can she regain her popularity. >> in sport nadal meets his match. all the details coming up after the break. just because i'm away from my desk

doesn't mean i'm not working. comcast business understands that. their wifi isn't just fast near the router. it's fast in the break room. fast in the conference room. fast in tom's office. fast in other tom's office. fast in the foyer [pronounced foy-yer] or is it foyer [pronounced foy-yay]? fast in the hallway. i feel like i've been here before. switch now and get the fastest wifi everywhere. comcast business. built for business. >> welcome to al jazeera. 2,000 migrants from bangladesh and myanmar landed in indonesia and malaysia after facing

devastation and persian accusation in myanmar. >> yemen's houthi rebels attacked the sawed city, two killed in the attacks. >> fighters have signed a peace deal in the c.a.r. >> king salman is declining an invitation to the u.s. we will talk with a saudi affairs specialist. why has the saudi king decided not to attend the meeting because clearly yemen is a major issue on the agenda. >> definitely took is by vise

that saudi rain has agreed to attend and then the king decided not to go. this is kind of a little bit of scratch in the diplomacy when we know that the kingdom of saudi arabia is assessing the situation and whole issue that they're going to discuss in camp david on an hourly base. i think saudi arabia decided that they want to adduce who i was going to present in camp david. we all now the crown prince is a very dynamic and well respected in the politics over there so it definitely sends a message to the united states that saudi arabia is not comfortable with some of the issues they are going to discuss especially lately that the -- >> some analysts are painting this as a snub from king salman to the u.s. are you saying that the relationship between the u.s. and saudi is cooler than it used to be?

>> it's not a snub definitely, it's just to send a message again. president obama has managed to turn saudi rain from an ally to a friend and he's switching the ally to iran by commenting the new deal in the region. saudi arabia is trying to send back total united statesar at least to this administration which we know in a year's time is going to be changed that we are friends, we have different views about certain issues in the region and i'm sure that this decline of going to the united states has basically got into the mix of the white house declining to sign something let's say short of nato agreement with saudi arabia and the g.c.c. country that if they agree on the proposal that the united states is giving them on the iran sanction, will they defend the g.c.c. country if any attack wishes to happen from the iranians. >> indeed, saudi arabia, other gulf states very worried about

this deal between the u.s. and the iran over its nuclear program. do you think that in order to protect their interests against the growing influence of iran, are countries like saudi going to ask for more advanced weaponry or even a nuclear program of their own? >> well of course, you know, we showed in couple days earlier that president of france, he was attempting a g.c.c. summit and that's such a strong message to the whole international community or at least to america that we have other allies if you wish not to agree helping us in advancing us with the new weapons. as far as the deal, the proposal that the united states agreed with iran and what kind of points they give them and seating that they are going to allow iran to control the same ceiling that is going the g.c.c. is going to use

basically, the g.c.c. is going to get the same deal that iran is getting when it comes to nuclear. this is the question we don't nope the answer yet and by basically the sing of saudi arabia declining to go and appointing the prince and also the king of bahrain is sending his son the crown prince, that tells you where this talk and this summit actually went from basically a camp david summit to a sort of summit camp david. >> thank you for joining us. good to get your thoughts there speaking to us live from riyadh there. >> the capitol city of iraq's chargest province is at risk of falling into fighters from the islamic state of iraq and the levant. some are down playing the importance of are ramadi to isil's strategy, but some say it would strengthen isil because it is

strategic to all warring parties. >> the suffering is worsening in ramadi torn apart by war. this is just one of the tens of thousands of families forced from their homes because of the fighting between the islamic state of iraq and the levant and government forces. the only shelter they have is on the side of this road. >> we don't have any place to go. my children are on the streets. what kind of a future do we have? >> it is a divided city and isil is on the offensive. the local forces say they may not be able to defend the government buildings in the center of ramadi for long. >> forces are on the defensive. they've been asking for help from the federal government. we don't have weapons and we want the u.s. coalition to step up airstrikes. >> ramadi is contested but most of the province is under isil's control. the armed group was strong in

anbar even before it pushed the iraq key army out of cities and towns across central iraq 11 months ago. now the government wants to recapture the province before it takes the fight against isil to mosul. many say it will be a hard battle to win. >> the fight in ramadi will be much harder than the battle in mosul. anbar is the last line of defense for mosul. they need to control anbar to take mosul. >> some tribes back the government in fighting isil, many others are not. the tribes that play an important role in fighting al-qaeda years ago but say government leaders never recognized their help and left them without political power. >> there are real fears that the city of ramadi may fall to isil. officials have down played the significance of the city in the overall fight against the armed

group. isil will not only control the capitol of the sunni heartland it will be able to claim victory in a strategically important province that shares a long border with isil controlled territory in syria. >> for in our the iraqi government doesn't have a clear strategy to capture anbar sending in shia backed militias will do little for reconciliation and that is what iraq needs to defeat isil. >> 360 migrant workers from my anbar, and laos were being phormingessed to work on fishing trollers and were rescued. we have spoken to one of them. >> he is happy he can go home after six years working as a slave on a fishing boat here.

he was trafficked from thailand. he and his friend told us stories about abuse about working throughout the night throughout the day without hardly any payment and now they are here in jakarta to finally go home. together with a group of 58 com boweddens, they will finally be reunited with their families. more than 300 of still stuck in east indonesia waiting for travel documents to be signed soon before going back home. according to the international organization for migration up to 367 former fishermen they've interviewed, 360 were victim of human trafficking. they expect many more are still in indonesia. police are investigating, but so far, no major arrests have been made. for these men most important is that they will sometime get the money that they've worked for so hard, because they are too embarrassed to go home empty handled. >> it's been two weeks since a

devastating earthquake struck nepal. in addition to saving lives there is a major attempt to rescue the countries cultural heritage. >> there's a different tempo to the relief operation now more than two weeks after the earth quake. instead of attempting to save lives, this painstaking work is about rescuing ancient tradition. the temple dates back to the fifth century and within it lice treasure. modern day social media is spreading stories of wrongdoing, so another part of this heritage lies destroyed. there are myths associated with it rumors circulating now that jewelry associated with a deity is missing.

>> a priceless vest is said to be stolen. that is denied by officials who say it will all eventually be recovered. the earthquake struck soon after the start of one of the most important festivals of the katmandu valley. this chariot was being pulled along by volunteers as part of an ancient ritual symbolizing snakes being dragged back to the valley, ending a drought. the legend gives all the credit to a rain god. the deity is in the chariot, along with the priest who has to stay onboard. tragically, a nearby building that collapsed as the quake struck belongs to him. his father and his aunt were killed in it. even so, he's unfazed at having to stay in the chariot. >> you can't call it a bad omen. earthquakes happen in other countries. it's a natural disaster. >> at the temple, some aren't reassured by his words. >> we are cursed. >> it has to be a bad omen.

maybe the gods are angry. >> a lot of people are spooked very scared. >> this conservationist believes superstitions have to be put to one side. >> for somebody like us with the heritage of the valley, we have to get up and start again. >> new sooner has he spoken, then the rain comes. despite tradition, it doesn't signal a restart of the festival. no one is sure when that will happen. andrew simmons, al jazeera. >> chile's president has just announced a new cabinet. last week, she asked the existing one to resign after a sharp fall in her approval ratings be. let's go to daniel live in santiago. what's the latest on the new cabinet? there's big changes. >> there have been, in the last hour the president came here to the presidential palace.

she was looking tired very i am patient, but in a short formal ceremony changed nine of the 23 posts in her cabinet. five of them out, four are them changing post, the key one was her interior minister, one of her golden boys, tried and trusted aid over many, many years. he's out. he was involved himself in a corruption scandal. he has been replaced by the defense minister, a tried and trusted figure, very conservative, but somebody that the government knows they can rely on. >> so the key question, daniel, is whether her gamble has paid off in whether this is going to restore people's faith in her authority. >> this is now what everybody's analyzing, some journalists behind me looking at these changes to see who's in, who's out, who's been moved around to

see if they think it is enough, that the right personalities have been brought in to rein still the confidence. the popularity of the governments, of politicians in general, of the president herself slumps in opinion polls so all time lows. they are keen to in still confidence. whether a simple change in the cabinet will be enough to rein still that faith that's something we're going to have to see in the next few weeks and months. >> will it draw a line under the corruption scandals? >> i think very unlikely, unless the government authorities are seen to be trying some of these politicians who have been involved in these scandals. politically, they might be able to get back on track with a change be in the cabinet but with the corruption scandals, that's going to take action in the courts rather than action here in the government palace to rein still that faith that

confidence in these political institution. >> ok, we wait to see what happens. thanks for bringing us up to date on that. >> mother's day marsh in mexico city tried to pressure the government to help find missing children. hundreds of families demanded justice for their lost loved ones. amnesty international said more than 25,000 people have gone missing in mexico in recent years. >> still to come on the program we'll have all the sport including who's heading toward elimination in the nba playoffs.

>> welcome back. we have the sport. >> a spanish court could decide the legality of a potential strike in the countries football divisions as early as wednesday according to a spokesperson for the league. meeting in madrid to discuss the situation. last week, the spanish football federation announced it would suspend matches over dispute with the government's interference with the sale of t.v. rights. backed by the players union the strike is set may 16 with two rounds of the top division left and no champion crowned. >> while european sports correspondent was outside that meeting in madrid, he has this report. >> spanish football on the brink and there's a clear division between two sides. on one side is the spanish be football federation, the people who called this streak. they have decided that actually, it's what they call not being treated with respect the fact that on the other side, the

spanish government had decided to bring in a new law which actually divides the money between the spanish football cup and federation wants more say in that. they are not happy with a strike and will take on the spanish football federation. you can see how complicated it is. the other twist is that the federation is supported actually by the players themselves. it's not just about the big stars playing for barcelona and real madrid, it's 30,000 footballers on strike, meaning we don't get the spanish cup final. it doesn't affect the champions they've got the separate competition but they need to resolve this. the league are animate they do not want the strike to go ahead. they are pushing for that at the

meeting today. >> not joining manchester city, the sports network reported saturday that he had verbally agreed to join the english premier league club. he is two years into a three year contract in germany. he's been speaking ahead of the champions leak semifinal against barcelona that takes place on tuesday. >> i have said it 200 million times that i have one more year on my contract here. next season, i will be here and that is all that i said. >> after being named golf's most overrated player by his fellow golfers, he has the last laugh in florida. the 26-year-old american was

involved in a three way playoff to decide the winner. he preside on the fourth extra hole to win $1.8 million. >> it's only going to help move me forward being in the position i was in last year, being in contention, really having a chance at the p.g.a. i feel like i look at this event as basically like a major as the major field obviously one of the best we play all year on a tough golf course. this will definitely give me momentum going into the u.s. open. >> the l.a. clippers have taken a 3-1 lead in their playoff series, putting the rockets on the brink of elimination. the star for the clippers, top scoring with 26 points and 17 rebounds, while chris paul nailed a three-pointer in the final minutes for 128-95

victory. >> the series is not over. we've got to keep playing got to finish. they're not just going to get out of our way. we have to keep playing keep trusting. we can't think about winning the series. we have to keep thinking about how we play, and then everything else will take care of itself. i think our guys have done a pretty good job with staying within themselves. >> while lebron james produced a moment of magic that saw the cleveland cavaliers beat the chicago bulls leveling the eastern conference final, at the buzzer giving the cavs the win. >> i just wanted to get a good look. i think like i was on goal for the lob. i bounced it back to the left corner and just took the shot that i'm very comfortable with taking. you know, i was able to knock it down. like i said, it's a hike win for our group, you know within it
