this one is playing in the last group of the day and this lofty approach hitting the pain is he not ten shots of his previous best on the course crean why chang and k.j. choi. saying here with a really sweet partner a couple of shots back while defending champion promiscuous and struggled through he found himself in the bushes at the thirteenth and relied on the short game a great deal to keep himself in contention with a seventy. while tiger woods wasn't looming either a further shot back on seventy one he has won here four times before but hasn't won a tournament in seventeen months. i thought i drove the ball really good and then when you travel well you know you have a chance to to give yourself opportunities for birdies and i felt like. i had my hands really good i just stayed committed to the targets i was taken i wasn't

trying to get over aggressive i was you know plants more you know and really just trying to lead myself in the best possible place you know i did a good job and today looked like everything was working properly even there but childes feelies long far away from the flag but it was to be able to make two but this is the important thing. in boxing one of the best pound for pound fighters in the sports history roy jones jr is on a visit to moscow this week r.j. promoting his upcoming back with russia's main hopeful in the cruiserweight division denis let's be there if i was initially shaped to pull maybe twenty seven but was moved due to broadcasting agreements although there's no world title up for grabs james still takes it as an opportunity to win a cruiserweight back for the first time in his amazing career memoir is regarded as one of the top boxes in this category despite losing his last bite. mark by a split decision. my motivation in this particular battle is that

froze i get opportunities to share would russia tell of the gift that god gave me. because the way title is the only one death alluded me between middleweight and him so i was so inspired to get that before i would start. so that he's always pulled from i'm fast. cultures that so much different if you've been sitting on the mark with logic or do you get humanitarian interventions as would be a grinds in to still make well outside powers find themselves pulled deeper into.
