RIO DE JANEIRO -- The Rio Games organizing committee can take public money to put on the upcoming Paralympic Games. Nike Air VaporMax .The judicial ruling amounts to a government bailout, an embarrassment to Rio organizers who had promised they could run their operating budget using only private money. The games run Sept. 7-18.The money will be used mainly in services and for clients and athletes, travel grants, food -- everything we need to do to make sure the athletes have their best, Rio organizing committee spokesman Mario Andrada said Thursday.Andrada attributed the revenue shortfall to the level of ticket sales and sponsorships for the Paralympics that has been below our expectations.Federal judge Guilherme Couto de Castro ruled the organizing committee can accept 150 million Brazilian reals ($46.5 million) in government money to fill the budget gap. His ruling overturned an injunction handed down last week that prohibited the organizing committee from getting taxpayer money.Andrada said only 12 percent of 2.3 million Paralympic tickets had been sold. He said Rio de Janeiro Mayor Eduardo Paes was barred from buying 500,000 Paralympic tickets for school children and the poor because it could be seen as a political move to influence voting.Andrada suggested that even the government bailout might not be large enough. Asked how much money was needed, he said about 200 million reals ($62 million) to fulfil the obligation at the level of service that we have agreed with the International Paralympic Committee. He said the final figure is still being assessed.He denied that the troubled Rio Olympics, faced with last-minute expenses like repairing the athletes village, had taken money from the Paralympics.None of the problems weve had in the Olympics were serious enough to produce a negative impact on the Paralympics, Andrada said. We didnt use money that had been stamped for the Paralympics.The Rio Olympic operating budget is 7.4 billion reals ($2.3 billion) and comes from sponsorships, ticket sales, merchandise sales, and a grant from the International Olympic Committee. This is the budget to run only the games themselves.A separate capital budget of between $10 billion to $12 billion is a mix of public and private money and was used to build sports venue, roads and subway lines.---Stephen Wade on Twitter: http://twitter.com/StephenWadeAP .His work can be found at http://bigstory.ap.org/content/stephen-wade Zapatillas Onitsuka Tiger .

NASSAU, Bahamas -- Tiger Woods walked off the 18th green at Albany Golf Club on Sunday, completing a 72-hole tournament for the first time in 15 months. It was an achievement that was always going to mean more than his swing, his score and his standing in the Hero World Challenge.And to think that a good bit of the chatter before the tournament centered around whether he would even start, let alone finish.Woods did far more than that. In a weeks time, he changed the narrative from negative to positive; from concerns about whether he was risking embarrassment to how long it might be before he will win again.The fact that some might be getting ahead of themselves when it comes to adding more tournament trophies is simply a testament to how good Woods looked this week, which was a pleasant surprise after all of the doom and gloom of the past year.Its really awesome to see, Jordan Spieth said. Im pumped to see what hes doing this week. Its certainly there. If he wasnt rusty, he could (have been) winning this tournament.Woods ended up well back of winner Hideki Matsuyama, shooting a final-round 76 that included three double-bogeys. That was the highest score of any player this week. But when you consider there were many who wondered if Woods would break 80, his time in the Bahamas was a rousing success.Getting back to this point is beyond anything that Ive ever experienced in my lifetime, Woods said. The pain issues that I had, it was rough. To battle back, to battle through it. Frankly there were some pretty dire times where I just couldnt move.Among the more impressive aspects of his comeback was the intensity Woods brought to his first tournament since August 2015. There is an understandable sense that Woods has to take things slowly, carefully. That his swing has undergone subtle changes to protect his surgically repaired back. That there would be growing pains, most notably with power and distance.But going back a week ago, when I was one of two reporters who got to witness Woods during a two-hour practice session at Albany, it quickly became apparent that he is lacking no power or distance; that his ability to shape shots is there.I really like how much longer his backswing is -- especially with the driver, said Sean Foley, Woods former coach. I like that his lower body and pelvis are moving more. The movement is not restricted; it is much more free. He looks great.Another former coach, Haney Haney, said: The swing is smooth; there are no apparent issues.Haney correctly pointed out the relative ease of the Albany course, and a few disclaimers are in order. Albany has five par-5s and did not play particularly long; the field consisted of just 18 players, which was reduced to 17 after Justin Rose withdrew with his own back injury; not every player was fully engaged (Dustin Johnson had not picked up a club since playing in China last month.) And this being an unofficial event meant it would be fun and relaxing with a nice payday as part of it.But Woods had more birdies than any player other than Matsuyama. Before the tournament, Woods noted how Bubba Watson won at 25 under par last year and figured even getting to 20 under would be a tall order.It was, but who would have thought Woods could make 24 birdies in 72 holes, regardless of the venue?His swing looks great, said Brandt Snedeker. It looks like he slowed the rhythm down a little bit. Ive been real impressed. He has an innate ability to do things that only a couple of guys in the world can do. I thought the hardest thing to do coming off a long layoff is to come back and shoot a low number. You can shoot 70 or 699, but to shoot 7 under par with no bogeys . Asics Nimbus 17 Mujer Baratas. .. that doesnt happen very often coming off a layoff.There were some issues, to be sure. Woods made three bogeys and two double-bogeys on par-5s, going 7 over par on holes where he might be expected to be at least 3 under. Thats a 10-shot swing right there.Woods is unlikely to see as much sand as he did this week since the Albany course is basically lined with waste areas instead of rough. But he had his struggles with long shots out of sand -- not that those are easy for anyone -- and if he misses fairways in most tournaments, hell have difficult lies in the rough instead.And yet, were quibbling, right? Woods had not played a tournament for 15 months, went at least six months of that time without swinging club and had enough reservations about his game that he pulled out of the Safeway Open in October just a few days after he entered.You know, only Tiger could take a year and a half off and put up the numbers that hes putting up this week, Matsuyama said.Everything looks like he can win on a great week, but he isnt winning with his B game, Haney said. For that matter, no one today can do that like Tiger used to do. He will win again, no doubt, unless the short game rears its head again.Much has been made of Woods chipping problems from early in 2015, but he maintains that is the least of his worries at this point. There were no signs of chipping yips at Albany, just possibly a lack of precision that is understandable.Rickie Fowler said he wasnt surprised by what Woods did here, having seen the improvement when they played together at home in South Florida. But he did note that Woods showed amazing patience and resolve in waiting so long to return while enduring the ups and downs of slow, incremental improvement.I cant imagine from where he was early 2000s, arguably the best player to ever play the game, to deal with not being able to put the same move on the ball and hit the same shots that hes used to seeing and to be patient and wait until he was healthy enough to make that progress, Fowler said.This was clearly an emotional, draining week for Woods. In addition to the duties he has as host of the tournament, playing for the first time with all the scrutiny he knew was coming led to an anxiety nobody else in the field faced. Woods admitted that getting past Thursday was a relief, and it allowed him to settle into playing golf.Sunday was more a reminder that this was never going to be easy, that golf is a difficult game even when at your best, and that Woods still has plenty of obstacles to conquer in his comeback.But instead of the dark clouds that hung over him for so much of the past year, there is a sunnier outlook heading into 2017. Woods is not likely to play again for at least six weeks, with his next tournament undecided. It could be Abu Dhabi on the European Tour or the Farmers Insurance Open at Torrey Pines the following week.Wherever it is, whenever it is, Woods now has a solid foundation from which to build with plenty of positives to draw on but much work still to do.I wasnt going to compare him to the rest of the field, said Woods caddie Joe LaCava. Theyve all been playing all year, and theyve been playing great. Honestly my goal was to get him through five rounds (including the pro-am) on his feet. That was big.You never know whats going to happen, but he looks good walking, looks good over the ball and looks good after hes done playing. And those are all positives.
