san francisco's first surf contest in decades is now in the record books. the rip curl competition started yesterday at ocean

beach. kelly slater walked away as the new world champion for the 11th straight time. no one has ever done that before. he won the world title based on points he's received so far this season. we should say that the actual competition here isn't over just yet. a beautiful day there. mark joins us now with a new addition to the raiders. also, carson palmer's first start coming up this weekend. >> yeah, you know with baseball over with, nba on strike. a dearth of sports during the week. to bone up on the playbook, and familiarize himself with his new mates. raider fans have every reason to believe, they will see a that's more like it performance out of carson palmer on sunday, his first start in the silver and black, and it comes against the denver broncos. his comfort zone should be widened a bit with the arrival of one of his favorite targets. tj houshmandzadeh should see action. although many wonder, the 33- year-old wide receiver, got

anything left? tj very comfortable with the various detractors taking shots at him throughout the years. >> if you kind of go back and look at my story and my life, i'm not supposed to be here. i'm supposed to be working at ups or something. i don't know. fedex. i'm not supposed to be here. i'm not supposed to be in the nfl. i was in a highly touted, highly recruited out of juco i was. >> we want today make sure we stressed our young receivers. at that time, derrick was there. i wanted tj. like i told you, when coach makes a decision, he made it. now, all of a sudden as i keep looking at our football team, i think here is a guy that can help us. now that we're in a different situation. that's why i did what i did. harding park is the scene for the champions tour. aka, the seniors happening. $444,000 at stake for the guy who comes in first. picturesque day in the city as the golfers ready up over

there. fred inglis in fact was there. >> reporter: the weather and playing conditions were perfect today. but michael ellen knows that things can change quickly here at harding park. >> i remember when i won the city qualifying, and we played 16 temporary greens. so probably won't get that bad. >> reporter: hale irwin first played as a professional in the '60s. now at 66 he's the oldest man ever to qualify. >> everybody is younger than i am this week. just bag here is a real treat. >> i think just out here, i'm comfortable. i'm with guys i know, instead of turning around. who the hell is that guy? >> making the champions tournament so enjoyable, guys play it like it's a game, and they have fun at it like it's a

game. yet taking it seriesly and competing it. >> reporter: sunday's payout could be fun at any age. thanks for joining us tonight. good night. >> good night.
