Keselowski Scores First Pole In Nearly Two Years

Published in Racing
Friday, 19 July 2019 14:55

LOUDON, N.H. – Brad Keselowski notched his first Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series pole of the season on Friday afternoon at New Hampshire Motor Speedway.

Driving Roger Penske’s No. 2 Ford Mustang, Keselowski secured the 14th pole of his career with a 27.927-second lap at 136.384 mph. He edged Joe Gibbs Racing’s Kyle Busch by .015 of a second to earn the top spot for Sunday’s Foxwoods Resort Casino 301.

“It’s been awhile since we’ve had a pole,” Keselowski said after his first pole since 2017 at Michigan Int’l Speedway. “We’ve had really good cars, but haven’t always been able to make the most it with the driver in qualifying, so it’s nice to get one here in Loudon with the Alliance Truck Parts group.”

Kurt Busch, fresh off his first victory with Chip Ganassi Racing last week at Kentucky Speedway, qualified third in the No. 1 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1. Erik Jones will line up fourth, followed by Team Penske’s Ryan Blaney in fifth.

Martin Truex Jr., Matt DiBenedetto, Joey Logano, Aric Almirola and Jimmie Johnson completed the top-10 in qualifying. The top-seven drivers were separated by .081 of a second.

Alex Bowman will start last in the No. 88 Hendrick Motorsports Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 after breaking a driveshaft during his qualifying attempt. His team has chosen to switch to a backup car.

Rangers agree to terms with trade pickup Trouba

Published in Hockey
Friday, 19 July 2019 14:43

NEW YORK -- The Rangers have agreed to terms with restricted free-agent defenseman Jacob Trouba, whom they acquired from the Winnipeg Jets in a major offseason trade.

The deal reached Friday with Trouba, 25, is for seven years and $56 million, with an $8 million salary cap hit for the upcoming season. He is expected to anchor the team's defense.

A 2012 first-round draft pick by the Jets, Trouba set career highs in points (50) and assists (42) last season. The Rangers acquired Trouba from the Jets for Neal Pionk and the 20th overall pick in this year's draft.

Trouba never could get together with the Jets on a new deal. In 2016, he asked for a trade but eventually backed down. He received a one-year, $5.5 million deal in arbitration last summer, and with the Jets in a salary-cap crunch, they shipped him out.

A 6-foot-3, 202 pounds, Trouba is a workhorse defenseman especially adept at blocking shots. But the Rangers believe he has plenty of upside offensively.

For his six-year career, Trouba has 42 goals, 179 points and a plus-37 rating.

Schauffele becomes first to fail R&A driver COR test

Published in Golf
Friday, 19 July 2019 09:01

PORTRUSH, Northern Ireland – Xander Schauffele became the first player to have his driver fail a COR (coefficient of restitution) test since the R&A began testing individual player’s drivers at last year’s Open Championship.

Following a second-round 65 that left him tied for 18th place, Schauffele said that his Callaway driver was tested on Tuesday and that he spent the next two days scrambling to find a replacement.

Although he said he has no issue with his driver being tested, he did object to how the R&A only tests random samples.

“I had a little bit of a run-in with them because they only test 30 players. I thought it was a little bit unfair,” he said. “I would gladly give up my driver if it's not conforming. But there's still 130 other players in the field that potentially have a nonconforming driver, as well.”

Schauffele struggled with his replacement driver on Thursday hitting just 6 of 14 fairways on his way to an opening 74 but said more testing late Thursday led to a better version he was able to use on Day 2.

“Yesterday it wasn't really matching my bag, which was a bummer. I was getting a little upset on the golf course,” Schauffele said. “Today I was testing a little bit on the range again with two different heads. But moved a few weights around and sort of found a good setting.”

The R&A began randomly testing individual player’s drivers at last year’s championship but none of the 30 that were tested exceeded the COR standards. 

“We offer the testing as a service to players so that they can ensure that their drivers conform,” the R&A said in a statement. “We believe that 30 is a reasonable sample and a practical option for conducting this process in the week of a major championship.”

PORTRUSH, Northern Ireland – With fans sprinting down and around the dunes, trying to will their favorite son to the weekend, it sure didn’t feel like a lost cause. That’s what Rory McIlroy feared when he arrived at Royal Portrush on Friday afternoon. That the opening 79 he’d fired here would relegate him to a bit player in what was supposed to be his show.

But on a cool, overcast afternoon along the Causeway Coast, the locals turned out for McIlroy, turned out by the thousands, and by the time he made the turn, all hell had broken loose as they scrambled just to catch a glimpse of the erstwhile Boy Wonder.

Oh, the mistakes to rue: The out-of-bounds tee shot and opening quadruple bogey. The 1 ½-foot miss. The closing triple. But after retiring to his rental house Thursday night, McIlroy didn’t beat himself up for squandering the one and only chance he’ll get to play a Portrush Open in his prime. He didn’t sift through the coverage of his shocking round, or listen to the TV analysts, one of whom opined that his five-year run of slow starts and underperforming in majors was, in essence, “choking.” No, he and wife Erica downed a bottle of wine and blew through the first few episodes of “The Sinner,” just like any other night.

“Just tried to reset,” he said. “Today is a new day.”

McIlroy described that 8-over 79 as a “blip,” and indeed, in the big picture, it was. It was his highest score of the year – by four. It was a startling run of waywardness for the player who leads the PGA Tour in ball-striking. But anomaly or not, it happened, and it was crushing, and it spectacularly ended his chances here in the most important tournament he’ll likely ever play.

Worried about the reaction a day later, McIlroy’s fears were eased by a raucous scene on a first tee that was ringed with fans, all eager to root on the local hero. “I was doing it just as much for them as I was for me,” he said.

And so for them, McIlroy put on a show, going 5 under in his first 12 holes to scare the cut line. A dropped shot was erased with a 20-footer for birdie on 14, and then he threw a dart into 16 to set up another chance to move one closer. By then the fans had crowded onto the hillside, lustily cheering him on as he strutted toward the green, and then they exploded when the 8-footer dove into the cup. McIlroy pumped his fist, and suddenly he was 6 under for the day, just a single shot off the cut line.

“Today was probably one of the most fun rounds of golf I’ve ever played,” he said.

McIlroy would have loved to keep his drive on 17 from drifting right, into the hay, leaving a tough approach over the edge of a bunker. He would have loved to hang his second shot into 18 just a few yards farther right. More than anything, he would have loved to play two more rounds here at Royal Portrush, on the same links where he once set the course record with a sizzling 61. Instead, in front of a packed grandstand at 8:10 p.m., he settled for a standing ovation after he rapped in his par putt, the final stroke of a Friday 65 that left him one measly shot above the cut line.

“It’s a moment I envisaged for the last few years,” he said. “It just happened two days early.”

McIlroy’s major season is over, but one of the busiest stretches of his year is just beginning. He’ll compete in another eight to 10 tournaments until the end of 2019, but never will he feel the pressure or the expectation or the adoration quite like this.

“It’s going to be a tough one to get over,” he said. “It’s mixed emotions. There’s a lot of stuff going on right now.”

He was disappointed, because he won’t be around for the weekend.

He was proud, because of how he responded from his shocking start.

And he was full of gratitude, for the fans who pushed him to the end, but also to the R&A officials who brought golf’s oldest championship back to this divided country, back to McIlroy’s home, after 68 years.

These days McIlroy spends much of the year in the States, in the South Florida compound that he’s built to usher in his 30s, but this homecoming proved deeply emotional, even in defeat.

“It’s been an eye-opener for me,” he said. “Sometimes you’re so far away and you forget about all of the people that are cheering you on back home. Then you come and play in front of them, it definitely hit me like a ton of bricks.”

For a player who made the cut in his major-championship debut, Robert MacIntyre wasn’t all smiles Friday at The Open.

The 22-year-old Scot was reportedly unhappy with his playing competitor Kyle Stanley and confronted the American for failing to yell fore on two wayward shots – each of which hit spectators – during his second round at Royal Portrush.

“Aye, there were harsh words,” MacIntyre told The Scotsman. “It wasn’t too pleasant. But you’ve got to tell him it’s not right. He didn’t take it well at all.”

MacIntyre said that Stanley hit a marshal on the leg on the 14th hole before striking the mother of MacIntyre’s caddie, Greg Milne, on the 17th hole.

“We’re shouting fore as the ball is coming into the crowd, and he’s just standing watching it,” MacIntyre said. “And people didn’t have enough time to react when we shouted. It hit Greg’s mum, so I told him how it was. I said I wasn’t happy – and he didn’t really like my response. He’s the only one I’ve seen do that. It was straight into the crowd. It was into the crowd from the word go. And we’re expecting him to shout fore. She’s all right, I think, but it’s not what you want.

“… It’s on the [player information] sheets, it’s on everything, you shout fore.”

MacIntyre shot 1-over 72 and will enter the weekend at 2 under. Stanley fired a second-round 67 to also the make the cut at even par.

Four years ago Pat Cummins was pretty happy to be running drinks in an Ashes series in England. Fair enough too, given that his injury record over the preceding few summers had made his selection for Test matches a near impossibility.

In 2019, however, Cummins looms as perhaps the key figure in the entire series, given his outstanding displays in Test matches for Australia to date that have made him by far the most reliable contributor to the attack that Tim Paine will marshal as captain in the touring side's attempt to retain the urn in England for the first time since 2001.

When Cummins was called up in 2015, after a succession of injuries finally forced Ryan Harris into retirement, it was without any first-class cricket to his credit for the preceding two years. A couple of tour games were the sum total of his playing time, and it was not to be until 2017 that Cummins returned to Test matches for the first time since his storied 2011 debut. In that time he has rushed to 94 wickets in 20 Tests, and six victims in the series opener at Edgbaston would make him the fastest into three figures for Australia since Charlie "Terror" Turner in the 1890s.

"I feel like it was hardly me," Cummins said of his 2015 self. "I think I had only played a couple of first-class games, I might have played my first first-class game in about three or four years on that tour. Totally different action, was still struggling with my body trying to bowl back-to-back days, trying to bowl 20 overs in a day.

"It was more just absolute excitement at being on that tour. I just remember running the drinks in an Ashes series, I remember thinking 'it doesn't get much better than this'. So I just hope that this time playing, it's a bit different."

Australia will hope so too, for Cummins has brought a combination of pace, skill and heart that have brought cricket watchers to their feet more than once. Incisive against England and South Africa in 2017-18, he did not let his performance dip much at all in the wake of the Newlands scandal, scooping 28 wickets from six Tests against India and Sri Lanka last summer.

By way of preparation for the Ashes after the emotional peaks and troughs of the World Cup, Cummins said the key thing was reminding himself, and his fellow pacemen, of what they do well in Tests, with the added feature of a Dukes ball that will provide them with assistance for longer periods than a Kookaburra.

"As a bowler it's pretty simple," he said. "Plan A is normally top of off and hope to get a bit of sideways movement, and I'm sure that over here it's not going to be too different. I'm sure once we get close to the game we're going to look at their batsmen.

"There's a few guys that we haven't played against before in Test matches, but I think the big thing for us bowlers is to remember what we do well and trying to remember that after not playing for a couple of months. Looking through some old Test match footage and concentrating more on what we do well than on certain weaknesses [in the opposition].

"I'm pumped to have a [Dukes] ball that hopefully swings around a bit more for me and hopefully a batsman leaves a ball every now and then. Probably the way it pans out in 80 overs is slightly different to a Kookaburra, but the way you actually bowl, the basics are still there. I'm sure I'll pick up a couple of things in the next few weeks though."

"No matter who's playing [in the Ashes], it's always fiery, it's intense, it's really good cricket. So I can't wait" Pat Cummins

So much of a leader has Cummins become that it will be intriguing to see whether he is promoted to the Test vice-captaincy for this series when the squad is named at the end of the internal trial match between a Hick XI and a Haddin XI in Southampton next week. While Josh Hazlewood and Mitchell Marsh shared the title initially, both were missing from the Test team at various points of the summer, with Head and Cummins taking their places.

Either way, the returns of Steven Smith and David Warner from suspension mean a strong degree of continuity in the Australia squad - of the XI that ended the 2017-18 Ashes in possession of the urn, only Shaun Marsh (broken arm) is absent.

"When you look at our Test side from the home series last year, we've basically got the same squad," Cummins said. "We haven't lost anyone from memory, and they're much the same. They've got a couple of guys coming in, their batting order's going to look slightly different, but probably similar to both sides is that our white-ball teams are quite different to our red-ball team. No matter who's playing, it's always fiery, it's intense, it's really good cricket. So I can't wait.

"I think it's pretty easy when you've got an Ashes series. Although there's been a lot of white-ball cricket this has been the big series we've been talking about for a long time in red ball. The good thing coming out of the World Cup is I still feel in pretty good shape, refreshed, body's good. We've got a couple of weeks here now to work on that Dukes ball. Don't have to rush it too much, we've got a good hit-out here, I love playing the red ball, it's pretty easy to get up for."

And while Cummins conceded there was a mental toll in terms of disappointment and frustration at losing their World Cup semi-final so badly to England, he also reasoned that adjusting from white ball to red is a simpler task for him than the opposite.

"It was disappointing to get knocked out in the semis in a tournament where I thought we played really well for the whole time," Cummins said. "We gave ourselves a really good chance. It felt like we were peaking at the right time, always in search of that perfect game which we probably needed in the semi. Unfortunately we weren't at our best that day and got knocked out but that's the World Cup.

"I think the most difficult one is going the other way and trying to re-learn death bowling, trying to re-learn your yorkers and slower balls. Those kind of things are probably harder than adjusting here, most of the basics kind of stay the same. It's just trying to make sure your wrist is good to swing the ball."

Durham 148 for 4 (Short 46) Northamptonshire 141 for 9 (Rossington 47, Potts 2-11) by seven runs

A fine all-round performance from D'Arcy Short on debut guided Durham to a narrow seven-run victory over Northamptonshire Steelbacks in their Vitality Blast opener at Emirates Riverside.

The Australia opener set the tone with an aggressive innings of 46 at the top of the order on a sluggish Chester-le-Street pitch. It allowed the hosts to set a challenging total of 149 for the Steelbacks to chase after losing the toss.

Durham were able to take the initiative with the ball, reducing the visitors to 23 for 3. Adam Rossington led a spirited counter to keep Northants in contention, although once he fell for 47 to Short it appeared to be in vain. Rob Keogh almost provided late drama, but Matty Potts held his nerve with the final over to clinch the win.

Openers Short and Scott Steel made a measured start to the Durham innings amid challenging overhead conditions. Short flashed his power with a couple of cuts to the fence. However, the pitch and the length of the boundaries at Emirates Riverside restricted the openers' ability to get on top of the Northants bowlers.

Short began to find his range and he pummeled Dwaine Pretorius back over his head for a boundary. The 28-year-old then survived a run out chance on 36 after Josh Cobb connected with a direct hit. Short's attempt to up the rate resulted in his dismissal when he sliced an attempted straight drive off Graeme White and was caught by Matt Coles for 46.

Steel and Graham Clark found their rhythm to guide their side over the 100-run mark. Steel was able to launch the first six of the match straight down the ground off the bowling of Cobb. The opener was beginning to free his shoulders before suffering the same fate as Short, allowing White to notch his second wicket.

With overs running out Ben Raine had to hit the ground running. He offered a brisk 13 from eight deliveries before he was bowled by Faheem Ashraf, while Clark was caught on the boundary for 17. Captain Stuart Poynter and Liam Trevaskis guided Durham to a competitive total of 148 from their 20 overs, leaving the visitors requiring almost 7.5 runs an over.

Northants' reply got off to a stuttering start, losing Charlie Thurston in the second over, cutting a Potts' ball straight to Short at point. Potts then removed the dangerous Cobb, clipping his pad then his leg stump to reduce the visitors to 18 for 2. Coles was elevated up the order, but fell attempting to pull Raine over the rope, only finding the hands of Jack Burnham.

Rossington led the Steelbacks' counterattack, blasting two huge sixes off the bowling of Raine to move them back in line with the required run rate. Rossington and Alex Wakely were building an important stand of 35, but Trevaskis broke the partnership by bowling the latter through the gate.

At the other end, Short handed Durham control of the contest when he removed Rossington, finding the edge with a delivery down the leg side. The home side turned the screw as Short notched his second wicket as Pretorius found Burnham in the deep.

Although the Steelbacks kept losing wickets, a lower-order stand between Keogh and White gave them hope. The two players took it to the last over, requiring 15 to snatch the win. Potts took on the responsibility and held his composure, guiding the hosts to the victory.

Former captain Steven Smith and Ashes tour aspirant Matthew Wade will be pitted against Australia's leading bowlers including Mitchell Starc and Pat Cummins in the internal trial at Southampton that will determine the final shape of the touring party.

Teams coached by Brad Haddin and Graeme Hick were named on Friday evening, with Usman Khawaja the only name missing out of the 25-man pre-Ashes squad as he continues his recovery from a hamstring strain suffered during the World Cup.

Travis Head will lead the Haddin XII, which features Starc, Cummins, Josh Hazlewood, Peter Siddle and David Warner. Test captain Tim Paine will meanwhile have Smith, Wade, Nathan Lyon, James Pattinson and Cameron Bancroft, another batsman fighting for one of the last remaining spots in the tour proper.

Cummins, who in addition to Head served as Paine's deputy in the latter part of the Australian summer, said the duel with Smith would help get his competitive juices flowing ahead of the Ashes.

"I think it'll definitely get the adrenaline up like in a Test match," Cummins said. "It doesn't happen too often - you'll see our egos be put to the test, we'll be going at each other I think. Maybe [played Smith before] in a T20, but not that I can remember.

"I think personally from my point of view it's about trying to get myself 100 percent ready for a Test match. I haven't played a first-class game in a few months so it's going to be trying to bowl long spells, get the ball swinging, try and think of ways to get batsmen out. These guys are really good players just like the English Test side. There's no really obvious flaw so you've got to try to work a batsman out. It's going to be a good hit-out, everyone is in good form."

The concept has arisen out of long-held dissatisfaction with the level of preparation provided by domestic and invitational teams fielded by host nations in recent years, whether it be Kent and Essex in 2015 in England, or the teams presented in Sri Lanka the following year. Pat Howard, the former Cricket Australia executive in charge of team performance, inked the fixture into Ashes plans well before he was shown the door in the wake of a scathing culture review last year.

"I think it's been in the planning for a couple of years, I think the lessons learned from the last couple of series was exactly that," Cummins said. "We want a really good hit-out in conditions we can control, people jostling for spots.

"The best thing is guys who are fighting for spots are in good form, so it's not a pre-season warm-up game that might meander or you kind of look after people's injuries in this game, it's going to be flat out and good fun I think, especially coming off a good game last week against the Lions, this is going to be another tune-up game that's going to get us right and ready."

Perhaps the only area of concern for the fixture is the danger of injury as players on both sides stretch themselves. Shaun Marsh was unable to be considered due to a broken arm sustained in a competitive net session prior to the final World Cup round robin game against South Africa in Manchester.

Haddin XII: David Warner, Marcus Harris, Kurtis Patterson, Travis Head (capt), Marnus Labuschagne, Will Pucovski, Alex Carey (wk), Pat Cummins, Mitchell Starc, Peter Siddle, Josh Hazlewood, Jon Holland

Hick XII: Joe Burns, Cameron Bancroft, Steve Smith, Peter Handscomb, Matthew Wade, Mitchell Marsh, Tim Paine (capt), Michael Neser, James Pattinson, Jackson Bird, Chris Tremain, Nathan Lyon
