game's plans to make sure at least some of the medals will stay in the asian nation . i would be more than willing to help bring in some new young athletes in snowboarding and freestyle skiing and whatever else and make sure that they have a chance to fulfill their dreams as well now some of the world's top golfers are completing their build up to next week's british open championship first day on the p.g.a. tour it's american chris blanks who has a one shot lead after the first round at the john deere classic in illinois and just behind him all the more familiar names of davis love the third scene here steve marino and matt mcquillan they are all tied for second after hitting a seven under par sixty four. however the shot of the day though was from zach johnson a sixty foot chip that went straight in. and he finished three strokes off the lead. to hand. from

a wall while materially westwood shares the lead at the scottish open if the englishman wins here he was asked compassionately donald as well number one but for the moment he's tied in first place with tullow from chile they both hit a sixty five. and lost and clay montgomerie needs a top five finish here at inverness to qualify for his major for a twenty second time in a row he's currently two shots back with a host of players including donald but it was westwards who was happiest with his days where. they have been playing well since the masses. and the practice over the last couple of weeks rest as well it was nice to refresh and looking forward to the next two weeks and sixty five's a good way to start those who is today. well and their civil absentee from the tournament his us open golf champion rory mcilroy has decided to rest ahead of the british open however twenty say the northern irishman could still be playing in the

faldo series which inspired him to become the major winner he is confident the top off reports on the us development programme which has come to moscow to help produce a russian champion. british six time major winner siri need for older founded his serious in one nine hundred ninety six and the black through of champions have already developed through the system including the likes of us open champion rory mcilroy and yet he is seeing the youngest player male or female in the mall in a ring to win four major championships could this game have any better at various moments it's great for us to be have to say with that the whole program does work you can see kids here today oh i want to be the next mori mcelroy say they want to come play with us it's the fourth time before the serious has come to be our scope and the band offers a unique chance for russia's young golfers to show off their skills. in giving tuning in to experience and under the inspiring supervision for all those personal

coach key fluids the kids could hardly help but grow to love the sport and progress quickly but every year i come back i see a difference which is fantastic which is a credit to i think to your to your your whole development their year each time so physically they're changing and with that their golf swings are changing. and i think if you can if you can continue to develop the techniques through your through your coaches then there's no reason why you can't you can't really aggressively progress there with founders assistant the young players get ready to take the next step and break into the professional rings a small country like northern ireland perhaps might not have expected to produce such a talented young major as michael roy sold a dear is there with great passion and determination future champions can appear from anywhere every country wants wants to see a champion for a domestic champion and it's very difficult to say at this stage at these ages

because obviously players that are progressing fast and then they may may plateau off going through different changes in the physiology. and so at this point you can't you can't say whether you've got a champion on your hands but if they keep progressing and they keep working at it and and your coaches continue to improve these kids then who knows you could of course you can have a rory mcilroy the fall the serious aims at producing future champions and the search for young talent all round the world these year thousands of teenagers will take to the courses at thirty five tournament in twenty five countries to drive cheap import their way to the fifteen grand final which will be held in northern ireland in september his name but out of order to. this was nice i think. hungry for the full story we've got it first hand the biggest issues get
