STATELINE, Nev. -- Actor Jack Wagner had five birdies in a 27-point round Friday to take a three-point lead over former hockey player?Mike Modano?in the American Century Championship.The 56-year-old Wagner won the celebrity event in 2006 and 2011. He also had a bogey at Edgewood Tahoe in the modified Stableford event. Players receive six points for eagle, three for birdie, one for par, none for bogey and minus-2 for double-bogey or worse.I think sometimes par putts, as we watch pros play, when they make a few par putts, it gives them a little momentum, Wagner said. And that gave me some confidence today.Defending champion?Mark Mulder?was third at 23, tennis player?Mardy Fish?had 22, former NFL star Sterling Sharpe 21, and former NHL player?Jeremy Roenick?20.Roenick praised Wagners game.His short game is really high, and his putting is really good, Roenick said. He doesnt hit the ball far, but he does hit the ball straight, and he hits the ball in position. So its perfect for him.Green Bay quarterback?Aaron Rodgers?had 10 points, two-time NBA MVP?Stephen Curry and father Dell Curry?each had seven, and Justin Timberlake finished with six.Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh had minus-8 points. Larry the Cable Guy had minus-20, and Charles Barkley was last in the 84-player field at minus-36.Blair ONeal led the five women in the field with eight points.Shoes Northern Ireland .

Shoes Online Ireland Cheap . Zvonareva, who won the tournament in 2009 and 10, couldnt handle her opponents big groundstrokes in only her third event back after 17 months out with a shoulder injury. Zvonareva made her comeback in January in Shenzhen and played in the Australian Open but lost her first matches at both tournaments.Arguably no other sports practitioners and followers spend as much time as Test crickets do on going back to the past and looking at similar in-match scenarios to try to foretell what is going to happen in a completely different match in a completely different time and played with a completely different set of personnel. Perhaps it is because of the time available overnight. Few other sports rely on the changing nature of a surface during the course of a match. Maybe motor sports because of rain, but that is not natural deterioration.It is perhaps this mix of uncertainty and leisure that sends us back to old scorecards, and cricketers are not immune to it. All through the opening days play, especially when flat deliveries began to go more than a metre upon pitching, we kept thinking of the last Mumbai Test between these two sides. Just to recap, India got the turner they wanted in 2012-13, won the toss, batted first, were bowled out for 327, conceded 413 and couldnt recover from the deficit against the spin duo of Graeme Swann and Monty Panesar.India ended the first day then at 266 for 6. England have managed 288 for 5. R Ashwin, who played a big part in bringing it down to a similar scoreline, couldnt help comparisons. In normal circumstances, 288 on the board on a pitch that became remarkably more difficult over the course of one day should worry India, but the way Ashwin compared the two matches should ease the nerves of Indian fans.When asked what score India would be comfortable responding to looking at the state of the pitch, Ashwin said: When we played England [here] last, the morning, the first day was a bit damp. It spun a little. It was absolutely flat on days two and day three. Im seeing very similar traits here.We got out of jail and got to about 330-340 the last time we played them here. If we can hold them somewhere [there]... if we had got one more wicket tonight, we might have been on course to do that. Probably come out tomorrow morning, and try and snap a couple of quick wickets and see how quickly we can stall their innings.Therein lies the difference. Then, India came back from 60 for 3 and 119 for 5 on a damp pitch. Here, England rollicked along to 230 for 2 before giving India an opening which Ashwin used to bring them back with three quick wickets. That should be a sign of a pitch becoming more difficult to bat on with time, as opposed to getting better on days two and three. But to put this comeback down to just the pitch would be unfair on some classical offspin bowling from Ashwin.England had had a near-perfect first session of 117 for 1 when Ashwin began to pull things back in the second. In a mid-afternoon spell of 12-1-21-1, he cut down debutant Keaton Jennings, he claimed Joe Root yet again, and kept Moeen Ali and Jennings honest. This spell was as much about drift and dip as it was about turn off the surface. After having scored 65 runns in the first session, Jennings spent the next 40 minutes sweating for five runs, which took him 29 balls.dddddddddddd Jennings then got away with reverse-swept and a cover-driven boundaries in successive deliveries, but Root could not.I must say I worked that dismissal in my head because he has got out a lot of times in the slips, Ashwin said of the outside edge he drew from Root. In the last three Test matches we have played, he nicked one in Vizag… I thought he did, but that was overturned. But he has got a tendency to nick spinners to the slip cordon. I saw him nick Dane Piedt in South Africa. He has done it quite a few times, to Nathan Lyon as well. I was just imagining on the first day that this is one of those wickets out of the four Tests we had where edges actually carry to slips. So I was just mentally working it over and it happened.The real rewards, though, came in the final session when England probably played one shot too many. The approach - reverse-sweeping Ravindra Jadeja, stepping out to spinners and not worrying about hitting in the air - seemed like a direct result of coach Trevor Bayliss comments that England had perhaps played themselves into a shell in their last three innings after they had been forced to do so trying to save the Visakhapatnam Test. There can be a case made either way as to whether it worked or not, but Moeens top-edged sweep did give Ashwin an opening.Ashwin didnt mind it because he knew he deserved more for his toil in the afternoon. I thought the rewards in that spell came for what I did in the afternoon session, Ashwin said. I thought I bowled a really good spell then to Jennings, and was that Moeen Ali? Yeah. Got Root out in that spell, but I thought that was one of the better spells of the day, and I got the rewards for that as soon as I came back in the third spell.Ben Stokes and Jos Buttler then showed the message from the coach was more wholesome. He didnt ask for mindless attack. Throughout the series, England have been throwing away parity in the last half hour of sessions and days. But here, the two batted watchfully for 13.4 overs even if brought them just 39 runs. They did what the situation demanded on a pitch they reckoned got difficult to bat on.Ashwin, though, expects otherwise. I think this is a very similar pitch in terms of what it had on the first day, he said. I dont know what it was, but I am just guessing it could have been just the moisture that made the ball spin a little bit in the afternoon session, and towards the end, I think it was the seam position. The more top spinners you bowled, it started spinning more. I am just expecting the wicket to play well from tomorrow onwards.The rest of the team and Indias fans will be hoping for Ashwins expectations to come true. ' ' '
