Chris Wood is desperate to perform well for England in this weeks World Cup and get a few people off his back.Wood has come in for criticism in some quarters after selecting Andy Sullivan as his partner in Melbourne, despite Ryder Cup team-mate Lee Westwood being set to make the trip.Westwood had been due to make his debut in the event after being chosen by Masters champion Danny Willett, but with Willett pulling out to protect a back injury, Wood took his place as the next highest eligible player in the world rankings.Under tournament rules, Wood was also able to select his partner and opted for Sullivan after the pair bonded during their Ryder Cup debuts at Hazeltine.Speaking after a closing 65 in the DP World Tour Championship, Wood said: Its as good as Ive played on a Sunday for a while so its nice to get a bit of form going into the World Cup, get a few people off my back.Dannys the one that pulled out. They know fine well the situation. Ive got so much respect for Lee as a golfer but I just feel as a team I will gel a little better with Sully.I went down the rankings, I did it in as fair a way as I could. There wasnt this much fuss when Danny jumped myself, Tyrrell [Hatton, Fitzy [Matt Fitzpatrick] and Sully to go to Lee.I totally understand Lees frustration, youre ready to go, but myself and Sully are hungry to go and play and surely thats what you want.We played the first practice day at Hazeltine together, me, him, Sergio [Garcia] and Rory [McIlroy], and we really gelled that week.We both played one foursomes and the singles and were in courtesy cars a lot together. We got a bit closer that week and have chatted about our Ryder Cup experience among ourselves and were motivated to go and win it next week.Whatever happens at Kingston Heath is at least certain to be more enjoyable than Woods previous visit to the course in Melbourne.I played about four holes when I was in the England squad as an amateur and got stung in the eye by a bee and had to come off, added Wood, who coincidentally had Willett as one of his team-mates on the trip.For me those sort of courses are as good as it gets, Im so excited to get down there and play it. Its almost like a US Open-style, you play aggressive to certain areas but you can putt it off greens and put yourself in position Z.china jerseys . -- Gus Malzahn finally had his day in Fayetteville. fake jerseys china .Y. -- Vancouver Canucks goaltender Roberto Luongo had little trouble picking up his first shutout of the season against a Buffalo Sabres team thats having trouble scoring goals. https://www.chinajerseysreplica.us/ .

Scott Kazmir allowed four hits in seven shutout innings, Michael Brantley hit a two-run homer in a three-run first inning and the Indians maintained their hold on an AL wild-card spot with a 4-1 win over the Houston Astros on Saturday night.It looks like the sun has finally set on the Bryan Colangelo era in Toronto. After a weeks-long dance, the club announced on Tuesday that Colangelo will be stripped of his general manager title and will now serve exclusively as the teams president, a shift that will see him lose the power to influence the decision-making process as it relates to players and coaches. The incoming general manager, who will purportedly be hired within a month, will report directly to MLSE president and CEO Tim Leiweke. The move is an unexpected concession to a controversial figure in Toronto. Colangelo will be allowed to maintain employment while also retaining the right to vacate MLSE for a shot at running a different organization should the opportunity present itself. Colangelo established many ties within MLSE during his seven-year stint with the Raptors and no doubt those ties came to his defence over the last few weeks as Colangelos fate was being decided behind closed doors. Even still, for a basketball lifer like Colangelo, it must be a bittersweet victory to be allowed to stay within the organization only to watch somebody else restructure and reshape the team he spoke so glowingly of at the end of this season. Still, the NBA is a results-based business and the higher-ups at MLSE, including Leiweke, clearly felt that the net result of Colangelos seven years of service did not entitle him to another shot at running the Toronto Raptors. Yahoo!s Adrian Wojnarowski reported on Saturday that the Raptors have now targeted Denver Nuggets general manager Masai Ujiri to replace Colangelo, and are preparing a "serious financial and organizational commitment" to lure him back to Toronto (Ujiri spent three years under Colangelo, including two as his assistant GM). Ujiris contract is up in Denver and while the organization has insisted that they want to retain his services after winning this years Executive of the Year award, Denver has a reputation for front office frugality and MLSE has very deep pockets and a willingness to spend. There is no doubt that Leiweke and Co. will tender an offer that is exceedingly difficult to refuse if Ujiri is, in fact, the man that they have targeted to run their basketball club, and it will be up to Ujiri to decide whether the money is enough to turn his back oon the club that gave him his first shot at running a basketball team.dddddddddddd Regardless of who is tapped to replace Colangelo as GM, however, one must acknowledge the seismic shift Colangelos reassignment will have on the Raptors organization. Doors that were thought to be closed under his stewardship (trading DeMar DeRozan, amnestying Andrea Bargnani) are now potentially reopened with his removal. Players like Rudy Gay and Kyle Lowry are no longer tied to the man that acquired them - the new GM will feel no pressure to justify their acquisitions because he wont have been the man that acquired them. Even Dwane Casey, whos already had his contract option for next year picked up, might be out the door if the new man in charge wants a top-down restructuring of Torontos basketball operations. So much of what one thinks and expects from the Raptors has been shaped through Colangelos lens it can be hard to grasp how different things will be with him gone. The on-court ideology, the trade market activity, the penchant for wild spending and the attachment to certain players will no longer necessarily define the club. Certain expectations are simply no longer apt when it comes to considering the Raptors. Colangelo had a hand in designing every corner of the organization and it will be very interesting to see how a new eye will take to his handiwork. Needless to say things are going to change, but how extensively the question going forward. It will be very interesting to see how history will remember the Colangelo era with the Raptors. While he earned no shortage of detractors, he also never sat on his hands or allowed the team to stumble unattended. He was a passionate executive and a fierce defender of the viability of the city of Toronto as a destination in the NBA. He made several miscalculations when it came to building his rosters (which is why hes no longer running the club), but he never gave up on trying to make the team better. He made several moves that I, personally, didnt agree with, but even I cannot argue with conviction that he had that every move he made brought the organization one step closer to where he wanted it. In a results-based business that doesnt count for a lot, but that doesnt mean it has to count for nothing, either. ' ' '
