Sebastian Vettel admitted his decision to go against Ferraris strategy at the German Grand Prix was a mistake and prevented him from finishing higher than fifth. Pat Elflein Youth Jersey .In the closing stages at Hockenheim, Vettel asked to stay out when Ferrari called him in for his final pit stop, reasoning that his tyres still felt good. The team then told him it believed he could undercut Max Verstappens Red Bull in third but eventually told him to stay out after a long conversation over the radio.?As it turned out, staying out ended any chance Vettel had of getting in the mix with the cars ahead and meant he had to settle for a distant fifth position. In hindsight, Vettel said he should have trusted Ferraris pace on fresh tyres.I just had a look at that now and I think I did a mistake because we could have had a chance to put the cars in front under more pressure, Vettel said.We were talking about it a long time in the race, I dont know how much it was broadcasted or not. But we were obviously not so great at the end of the stints and struggling a bit with the tyres, and obviously I didnt want to make the last stint too long for that reason. Arguably I was too conservative.Vettel finished ahead of teammate Kimi Raikkonen in sixth, capping a disappointing weekend for Ferrari which saw it have to settle for the third row of the grid behind Mercedes and Red Bull. The German said the team never got on top of its problems from Saturday.Asked if some rain would have brought Ferrari closer after a light drizzle in the closing laps, he said: Well unfortunately we were a bit far from the cars in front, especially after the first two stints. For sure were trying to push on and trying to stay as close as possible, you never know, I think we had some drops at the end, unfortunately not enough.I think certainly not happy, racing at home is always something special and in that regard it wasnt a special race, but I think we like yesterday, struggled a little bit to get the balance right and the car was sliding a little bit too much which cost us life on the tyres and ultimately performance at the end of the stint, to sum it up we were not quick enough today.

Ive been working on a couple of things on the swings, looking at old videos when I was getting in good positions.Mikko Ilonen of Finland, Marc Warren of Scotland, Tommy Fleetwood of England and Richard Sterne of South Africa all shot 66s to take a share of the lead. Ben Gedeon Vikings Jersey. It was another strong display by Warren, who started the Dunhill Links in 125th place on the Race to Dubai with only the top 110 keeping their cards for next season. He finished fifth at St. Andrews on Sunday to move up 55 places.Sterne, who was second at the Dunhill Links, has shot eight straight rounds in the 60s and hasnt dropped a shot in 55 holes.Alex Noren of Sweden was alongside Westwood and five other Englishmen -- David Horsey, Richard Bland, James Morrison, Andrew Johnston and Lee Slattery -- on 4 under par.Defending champion Matt Fitzpatrick of England shot 70 after two bogeys in his last seven holes.Tournament host Luke Donald shot a 6-over 77.Masters champion Danny Willett was forced to withdraw from the event because of a back injury before starting his round.

ST. Pat Elflein Vikings Jersey . LOUIS -- The St. Louis Cardinals have placed reliever Kevin Siegrist on the 15-day disabled list with mononucleosis.The move is retroactive to June 30 and was announced Friday.Right-hander Sam Tuivailala has been recalled from Triple-A Memphis.

There are some early surprises in the race for the Hart Trophy, but two of the contenders are the leagues biggest stars over the past decade. There are many more players in contention for the awards than just the three that Ive named, and a good or bad week can easily alter the landscape, but through the first 20 or so games of the NHL season, this is how the awards races look to me. Jaleel Johnson Womens Jersey . Isner, ranked No. 14, won his eighth career singles title and took the title in New Zealand for the second time after his victory in 2010.

Wallabies coach Michael Cheika fears more Australia players will be lost to cashed-up European club sides with the ARU facing a battle to keep some of the countrys best young talent.Giant second-rower Rory Arnold and centre Tevita Kuridrani are the latest names to be linked with a moves to France with the Brumbies duo reportedly being chased by Toulon and Bordeaux Begles.Cheikas side will face England at Twickenham on Saturday (Sunday 0130 AEDT) without in-form halfback Will Genia, whos returned to Paris club Stade Francais.The England game falls outside of the official international Test window and Stade knocked back a request from their former coach Cheika for Genias services.Cheika conceded the ARU cannot match the money on offer in Europe and said the key to keeping the best talent is convincing players theyre better served playing Super Rugby regularly.Everyone off (contract) in 2017 is linked with a move, Cheika said.For us to keep our players, weve got to be doing an unbelievable job on the ground.They can offer them more in sterling, albeit Brexits almost a little thing thats helped the Australian Rugby Union in a way.Albeit with a small decline in Sterling and Euro, theyre getting offered more than were able to offer them in dollars.Weve got to make sure that playing, not just for Australia but for your Super Rugby team, is something thats ggoing to make you a better player, a better person. Ben Gedeon Youth Jersey. .Then when the opportunity to play for Australia comes around it has to be something that players really want.In addition to Genia there are at least 20 Wallabies plying their trade in Europe including Kurtley Beale, Matt Toomua, Adam Ashley-Cooper, Ben Mowen, Drew Mitchell and Matt Giteau.Its not a problem exclusive to the Wallabies with New Zealand and South Africa also battling to stop their best players having their heads turned by the big money on offer in the northern hemisphere.Thats the real world issue for us, Cheika said.South Africa have been ripped apart by departures and its happening to New Zealand too.Weve gone on a clear plan to try and grow the number of players that are competing for spots in the Australian team because we have blooded so many new players and weve done it on purpose.When you play 15 Tests against the top eight nations in one year, theres no easy games.Weve seen ... over here how true that is. Youve got to try four or five debutants in a game, five first-time starters in a game.Well take a bit of pain initially and well keep doing it until we build the depth we need to stay competitive no matter how many players come overseas.

The SEC West could be all but decided Saturday. Christian McCaffrey Panthers Jersey .Seems like a strong statement, but with three games involving ranked teams it is possible for the leader of the division to exit this weekend with essentially a two-game lead on all the closest contenders with three games to play.The leader will be determined in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, when the top-ranked Crimson Tide (7-0, 4-0) faces No. 6 Texas A&M (6-0, 4-0). The winner will be the only undefeated team left in the Southeastern Conference and the loser will need the winner to lose twice to have a chance to win the West. Not impossible, but any plan that involves Alabama losing two of its last three SEC games seems like a bad plan.Elsewhere in the SEC West, No. 23 Mississippi (3-3, 1-2) is at No. 25 LSU (4-2, 2-1) and No. 17 Arkansas (1-2, 5-2) travels to No. 21 Auburn (4-2, 2-1).

The Olympic champion curler and TSN curling analyst immediately went online to look at the Halls long list of honoured members. Thats when the enormity of the honour sunk in. Monday brings us a healthy slate of games with 18 teams in action. That means there are myriad ways to construct your lineups with high-priced stars and affordable value plays. Our experts are here to help you decide whom to use and fade.Todays panel includes ESPN Fantasys Kyle Soppe and Joe Kaiser, plus DFS expert Renee Miller.Players to build aroundKyle Soppe -- John Wall, Washington WizardsI gave him to you on Thursday with promises of a double-double, and he delivered with 23 points and 11 dimes! Given the time of year, Im thankful for him producing at the level that the numbers suggested possible, and Im going right back to it. Wall is a top-five player in terms of usage this season, a trend that Ill take to the bank against a Suns team that operates at the leagues fastest pace. Wall is a tough cover on the perimeter, and with him shooting 48.1 percent ... fuhgedaboutit. The Wizards are averaging 106.4 points over their last seven games, and if that trend continues, Wall is worth every penny tonight.Joe Kaiser -- Kevin Durant, Golden State WarriorsPaul George has already been ruled out for tonights game against the Warriors, leaving Glenn Robinson III to fill in, and that creates an opportunity for Durant to put up huge numbers. Its a night with several tantalizingly low-priced options, such as Robinson, Phoenix center Alan Williams and Dallas point guard Deron Williams, but I think theres a good chance all three could under-perform. Instead, Im paying up for Durant.Renee Miller -- Affordable wing: Josh Richardson, Miami Heat, and/or Glenn Robinson III, Indiana PacersOn big slates with a lot of star power, I often choose to start building my lineups around affordable players in good situations. I expected a better second start from Robinson last night, and he delivered in a big way in an overtime win over the Thunder. Tonights contest is another fast-paced, high-scoring affair with the visiting Warriors, and I think Robinson will have no problem exceeding value with George out again. Richardson has been terrific over the past three games in a utility role for the Heat, and theres no reason to expect him to slow down tonight. He gets a top matchup with Philadelphia, wheree he should enjoy a bump in pace and little resistance from the field. Harrison Butker Youth Jersey. Pairing these guys with top options like James Harden, Hassan Whiteside or Durant makes for a high-upside, but less-risky lineup than we might otherwise end up with.Players to fadeKyle Soppe -- DeMar DeRozan, Toronto RaptorsDeRozan has ascended into the elite class of scorers, and that is no fluke, but I want no part of him tonight. The Raptors are traveling and on a back-to-back; a rough combination that gets even more unappealing when you consider that the Clippers are among the most efficient defenses in basketball this season. Guards are shooting under 40 percent against the Clips this season, and even if DeRozan exceeds that mark, it is difficult to see him approaching the 50 percent plateau that hes been at for most of the season. Since the beginning of last season, DeRozan has topped 10 assist-plus-rebounds less than 20 percent of the time, so if his scoring stroke isnt there, youre looking at a poor investment. Look for DeRozan to continue to do big things for the Drakes this season, but dont count on him carrying your Monday DFS roster.Joe Kaiser -- Eric Gordon, Houston RocketsGordon has put up some decent numbers lately, but Detroit poses too great of a challenge to pay more than $5,000 for Gordon. The Pistons enter Monday ranked No. 7 in defensive efficiency and have a wiry athlete in Kentavious Caldwell-Pope who can use his length to harass Gordon all night. Im going with other options at shooting guard. Even someone like the red-hot Nik Stauskas has a good chance to out-produce Gordon at a fraction of the cost.Renee Miller -- John Wall, Washington WizardsThe Wall fade for me is all about price and a different spending plan on tonights busy slate. Walls numbers reflect a high floor but also a relatively low ceiling, given his salary is among the top two priciest among point guards on both sites. I feel like I can get similar production for less with Kyle Lowry or Jeff Teague tonight and would prefer to spend up at other positions, like forward or center.

RIO DE JANEIRO -- In more than two decades as a pro, Adilson da Silva never felt nerves like this on the first tee. Tarell Basham Jersey .Thursday wasnt any tournament.It was the official return of golf to the Olympics, the first games in South America. And as the only Brazilian in the mens competition, he was chosen to hit the opening tee shot at Olympic Golf Course.I couldnt say I wasnt nervous, because I was nervous, da Silva said. But at the same time, I still need to hit a good shot. Before I teed off, my head was everywhere. `Just dont goof this. Dont make a scene. But just toward the end, I managed to calm myself down.Da Silva sent his drive soaring down the middle of the fairway and removed his cap as he looked back at the crowd, mostly golf officials who pushed to make golf part of the Olympic program again.Walking over to his bag, his caddie patted him on the back.His caddie is Andrew Edmondson, a tobacco buyer from Zimbabwe who once used an 11-year-old da Silva as his caddie during weekend rounds in Brazil and later brought him across the ocean to provide better golf instruction.Its the end of a long journey -- or the beginning of a new one, said Peter Dawson, the president of the International Golf Federation who stood proudly on the first tee. Adilson said it all. The relief on his face showed it was a lot more than a normal event.The only disappointment for da Silva was a few concentration lapses that led to no birdies until No. 9, three bogeys on the back nine and a score that left him nine shots behind at the end of the opening round.At least the tee shot went well, and da Silva only smiled when asked how he slept the night before.Look, its in your mind. Everybody is talking about, your friends saying, `Wow, its such a nice thing to do, he said. But I still need to hit the shot. So it was tough.Most pleasing to da Silva was the crowd, which grew as the day wore on to resemble several PGA Tour events on a Thursday. Most of the Brazilians were following his group, and at one point he apologized to Graham DeLaet and Byeong Hun An for the extra commotion.They understand, he said. They know that we are not there yet, but were learning. People are there just to give us support. Tarell Basham Womens Jersey . 31, the CFL club announced Monday.

BOSTON -- Stunned by an eight-run rally Sunday night that cost them the series finale against the Kansas City Royals, the Boston Red Sox look to Rick Porcello to reverse their fortunes. Adidas Originals Trainers On Sale .Porcello brings a 12-0 home record to the mound in the opener of a three-game series against the Tampa Bay Rays on Monday night at Fenway Park.Porcello will face fellow right-hander Matt Andriese in a rematch of a game last Wednesday in St. Petersburg, Fla. Neither pitcher earned a decision in that game, won 4-3 by the Rays in 11 innings, and Porcello takes his second shot at a major-league-leading 18th win in the rematch.He will bid to become the first Red Sox pitcher in 70 years to start a season 13-0 at home.In the first year of a five-year contract extension worth $82.5 million, Porcello (17-3, 3.23 ERA) is a legitimate Cy Young Award candidate.I think the one thing was that we werent sure as time went on if he would take the jump to be a top-of-the-rotation guy once we had him, Red Sox president of baseball operations Dave Dombrowski said in a recent WEEI interview. We looked at him maybe as a middle-of-the-rotation type.As David Price has lived through his ups and downs in his first year in Boston, and as Steven Wright has emerged as a pleasant surprise, Porcello has flown under the radar and run up his strongest major league season.Dombrowski traded Porcello away from the Tigers to the Red Sox and then inherited the pitcher during Porcellos 9-15 first season in Boston. The Red Sox signed him to the big contract four months after acquiring him from Detroit but before he threw a regular-season pitch with his new team.Since May 22, he is 11-1 with a 3.12 ERA, and he is 3-1 with a 2.39 ERA in August. At Tampa Bay last week, Porcello pitched 7 2/3 innings of three-run ball, striking out eight without issuing a walk.The current Rays roster has a collective .272 batting average against Porcello, with Brad Miller hitting three home runs among his four hits in 15 at-bats against the right-hander. Evan Longoria (10-for-40) and Corey Dickerson (3-for-13) have also homered against Porcello.Longoria has 15 homers in 72 games at Fenway Park.Andriese (6-5, 3.71 ERA) has pitched twice against Boston this year -- an impressive two-inning relief outing at Fenway Park on July 10, during which he struck out five, and last weeks quality start, when he gave up three runs in six innings. Andriese fanned eight and walked one Wednesday.He is 0-3 with a 5.63 ERA in eight appearances since the All-Star break, but Andriese, who turned 27 on Sunday, said he was eager to face the potent Red Sox again.The last-place Rays (55-74) won the final two games to earn a split of the four-game series with the Red Sox last week. Tampa Bay lost the first two in Houston before beating the Astros 10-4 on Sunday.Tampa Bay manager Kevin Cash is not pleased with his clubs fundamentals.As a staff, were losing sleep over it, Cash said Sunday, according to the Tampa Bay Tribune. Look, weve got a group of some young players here. Were always going to have young players. But at some point those young players, even though they are young, weve got find a way to impact them to where theyre making positive decisions and adjustments in their game.Weve spent a lot of time talking about it, what can we do better this last month, what we can address more of. Its going to take all of us, myself, getting a little more hands-on and coaching these guys, trying to play it out how its going to happen before it actually does. I think thered be some benefit to that.The Red Sox, who still have to go back to St. Petersburg from Sept. 23-25, lead the season series with the Rays 7-6, going 4-2 at Fenway Park.Boston lost two of three to the Royals over the weekend, including a 10-4 setback Sunday night. Kansas City trailed 4-2 entering the sixth inning before erupting for its biggest inning in three years.The Red Sox (72-58) are two games behind the first-place Toronto Blue Jays in the American League East, and they are a game ahead of the Baltimore Orioles for the first AL wild card.

The problem was, once she was ready to start up again, the promotion evidently wasnt on the same page.Feels like Ive been asking to fight for a full year now, Carmouche said. I honestly dont know what happened. I thought maybe Id made someone mad and got blacklisted. The only thing I can imagine is discussions for the purchase of the UFC put things on hold -- but if booking me to a huge card in New York was their way of saying, Sorry this took so long, Ill take it.Carmouche, 32, did participate in an Eddie Bravo Invitational grappling match in September, which was broadcast on UFC Fight Pass. Even with the time off, Carmouche wouldnt be far away from title contention if she were to get past the undefeated Chookagian.I believe I built momentum competing in jiu-jitsu, showcasing all the skill sets I have, Carmouche said. Winning this fight just progresses that momentum and gets me back in title contention.Chookagian: I think I represent the newer generationWhen UFC 205 was first announced, the 27-year-old Chookagian immediately pulled up the UFCs female roster and liked what she saw.The promotion is not flush with female talent based out of New York. Chookagian, a Philadelphia native who now fights out of New Jersey, figured she had a shot to make the card.Im pretty lucky to be on this card, considering this is only my second UFC fight, Chookagian said. But I also had a feeling Id be on the card. Im pretty much the only girl signed in either diviision who is from the East Coast, New York area. Adidas Superstar Shoes Sale. I was holding on to that, thinking maybe it would get me on here.In addition to her locale, Chookagian is also one of the better prospects in female MMA. She started taekwondo when she was 4, and got into karate a few years later. By the time she was 15, she had already won an amateur Golden Gloves boxing tournament. She trains her striking under standup coach Mark Henry, who will be in the corners of Eddie Alvarez and Frankie Edgar on Nov. 12.Currently, I think the womens side of the sport is where the men were a few years ago, Chookagian said. I feel like most of the women are only dominant in one area of MMA. Thats why youve seen, in the bantamweight division, there has been a different champion every fight lately. A lot of that has to do with matchups.I think I represent the newer generation. I have equal experience in different areas of fighting.Statistical comparisonCarmouche: 10-5 record (2-3 in UFC); past three fights have gone to decision (1-2 record)Carmouche: 11 takedowns landed in past four fightsChookagian: 8-0 record (1-0 in UFC); five of eight wins by decisionChookagian: Defended three of four takedowns in UFC debut (UD3 over Lauren Murphy)BreakdownThis bout sets up as a potential passing of the torch for contender status within the division -- unless its just too early for Chookagian.Carmouche will battle a size disadvantage, which could make things especially difficult as grappling is her clearest path to victory. Chookagian is a mobile, high-paced striker with a jab that is pretty efficient at maintaining the distance she wants.What Carmouche lacks in size at this weight, she makes up for in strength. Chookagian also doesnt carry a lot of knockout power, which means theres a solid chance Carmouche will get a full 15 minutes to work her takedowns. If you look over Carmouches record, her toughest foes mostly have been bigger grapplers. Chookagian is definitely bigger, but her grappling is less proven.PREDICTION: Chookagian by decision.

James Anderson insists he will be fit to play a role in Englands Test tour of India next month, even though he is unlikely to start bowling again for another three weeks as he continues his recovery from a long-term shoulder injury. Zay Jones Jersey .Speaking at Lords ahead of the NatWest OSCAs, Anderson admitted his frustration at missing out on the Bangladesh leg of Englands campaign, following a stress fracture of his left shoulder blade that caused him to miss the first Test against Pakistan in July.However, he took umbrage at the suggestion that - at the age of 34 and with 463 Test wickets to his name in a 14-year England career - his body is beginning to struggle with the intensity of his international workload.I feel fine, Anderson told ESPNcricinfo. Its a frustrating injury where everything feels good, the rest of my body feels great, but as soon as I try to bowl Ive got a bit of pain there. Its something thats going to take a few more weeks to rest and recover. Ive got another scan in three weeks to see if its healed enough for me to start bowling.Im not going to miss the entire trip, no, he said. Im very confident Im going to be involved in the India series, it is a frustrating injury, something I want to get right, but it does happen in cricket, in sport, you get injured, youve just got to deal with it, and hopefully I can get as fit as possible as soon as possible.Despite Andersons optimism, the timescale is a concern, with England facing five Tests against India in the space of six weeks, starting in Rajkot on November 9, one week after the conclusion of the Bangladesh tour.Anderson has not bowled in a competitive fixture since the fourth Test against Pakistan at The Oval in August, and with no warm-up games scheduled for the early weeks of the India leg, there will be scant opportunity for him to regain his match fitness ahead of one of the toughest assignments in Test cricket.What is more, having not missed an England Test through injury since the Sri Lanka series in 2011 (at Edgbaston in 2012, he was rested alongside Stuart Broad for a dead-rubber against West Indies) Anderson has now had to sit out four of Englands last 16 Tests - two against Australia in the 2015 Ashes, and one each against South Africa and Pakistan.His situation is such that Andrew Strauss, the director of England cricket, admitted after the squads arrival in Bangladesh earlier this week that he didnt know whether to expect Andersons return at any stage of the tour, adding that he may require careful management over the next 12 months if he is to survive a hectic schedule that culminates in next years Ashes tour of Australia.Anderson, however, disagreed vehemently with that assessment - much as he had done during the Pakistan series, when his protestations of fitness ahead of the Lords Test were over-ruled by Englands selectors and medical staff.No, I dont think like that at all, he said. Ive had a couple of injuries here and there in the last 18 months, which is pretty much all Ive had in my career. I dont think thats going to deter me from wanting to play in every single game that I possibly can.I love playing the game, I love playing for England and I dont want to miss any cricket. Im sure that the management and medical team will have different opinions to me, but well cross that bridge when we come to it down the line.I dont think my body has let me down in any shape or form, he added. I feel as fit as I ever have, I feel very strong, the rest of my body Ive been working hard on, Ive done a lot of running, and Im confident that I can come back fit.Theres little doubt that England would dearly love to have Anderson back for what promises to be an intense contest, as India - the newly-crowned No.1 Test team - seek to avenge their home-and-away defeats in their last two series against England.In spite of those who maintain that Anderson loses his impact away from Englands green seamers, his record in India stands up to scrutiny - 22 wickets in seven Tests at 29.81, including matchwinning spells in Mumbai in 2006 and Kolkata in 2012. He knows that his experience with the new ball could be crucial in helping to guide the fortunes of a talented but largely untested attack.Do I have to prove myself? he said. Ive enjoyed bowling out there, its a huge challenge as a seam bowler, and I think that gives you more fulfilment and satisfaction if you do do well.Certainly myself and Stuart [Broad], having been there before, well need that experience when it comes to playing in that series, as well have plenty bowlers who wont have been there before, so well have to help the guys settle into that environment as quickly as possible.Recent contests between England and India have been understandably feisty affairs, and Anderson - who became embroiled in an ugly row with Ravi Jadeja during the last series in 2014 - expects this next campaign to be little different.We are two teams that play with great passion, he said. I watched the India-New Zealand series recently and you could see the passion the India side has got, led by Virat Kohli.We are a very similar team in that respect. We go out there wanting to win and we play with a lot of passion. And when two teams play like that, then inevitably you are going to get some fieriness on the field.As for the Jadeja row, he added: Thats in the past. We shook hands at the end of the series and, for me, that was the end of it. And I think for him as well too. Im sure there will be battles between individuals when we are out there, but hopefully it will be with bat and ball.In the meantime, however, the focus will be on Englands fortunes in Bangladesh, and in Andersons absence, it may fall to the breakthrough star of the English summer, Chris Woakes, to exploit what little movement may be on offer on what are expected to be slow and low wickets at Chittagong and Dhaka.What he brings with bat and ball is crucial to the balance of our team, said Anderson. Hes an amazing talent, he can swing the ball both ways, he can reverse the ball, and hes got pace so hes got everything you need to be successful.And hes been working on subtle variations - offcutters, legcutters - that you need out there. He is crucial to the balance of our team, he brings depth, and Im sure hell go from strength to strength in the next few years.James Anderson was speaking at the NatWest Outstanding Service to Cricket Awards (OSCAs), which recognise the contribution that volunteers make to the game.

RIO DE JANEIRO -- The winds of change are blowing at the Rio badminton arena. Actually, those are just the gusts from the air conditioning vents: Theyre cold and theyre strong and they could pose a problem for some of the best players on the planet.After all, Olympic glory will be determined by a few feathers -- more precisely, by the flight of the 16 goose feathers stuck to the light, leather-covered round cork of the shuttle.Badminton players call these winds drifts, caused by strong air conditioning and currents that arise when hot, humid air enters from open doors and meets colder air inside an arena.Drifts can swirl in from the side, above and below. They can stop and start or blast away steadily, and do funny things to a badminton shuttle, spinning it out of a rackets path or causing a shot that should have landed in to land out.Simply turning off the air conditioning doesnt work because sweat -- on the racket, in the eyes, on the floor -- can be as big a problem as drifts.No venue is perfect, and theres no way to completely kill drifts, although players change sides during a match to try to compensate. Gripes about drift are part of badminton, even at the last Olympics in England, where the modern version of the game was developed in the 19th century.One complaint in Rio is that the multipurpose Riocentro pavilion where the badminton matches are being held wasnt built with the sport in mind. Dedicated badminton stadiums, like the ones the superstars are used to playing in, usually do a better job dealing with drifts, placing AC vents and doors in a way that minimizes air currents.Players say the drifts in Riocentro change depending on which side of the court they play on. Drifts also vary from court to court, with some saying the middlle of the pavilions three courts is worse than the side courts. Tre Davious White Jersey. Experience might be the best antidote to drifts.Veteran players, especially those who play the professional tour in Asia, where heat and humidity often mean high AC in the stadiums, tend to handle drift better.They compensate for it, they get used to it, Estonian Raul Must, world No. 45, said after a loss to Jan O. Jorgensen, the world No. 5, from Denmark. The drift made it harder for me. One side, it was slow; the other side was faster. So it can be one meter shorter than what you think on the slow side, and one meter longer on the other side.Others also acknowledged the drifts in Riocentro, but noted that everyone had practiced in the venue for days before the competition started and so knew how to adjust to the bad spots.Perhaps the best strategy for drifts? Just dont think about them.I would be lying if I said it wasnt a factor. It is, but its the same everywhere, Jorgensen said. I dont want to worry about something that I cant control a single thing about.Drift is much more of a factor when top players face each other because the margins of error between the elite are so narrow, said Soren Opti, a 19-year-old from Suriname who was crushed early on by world No. 1 Lee Chong Wei, of Malaysia.The drifts in Rio were tough but by no means the worst hes seen, said Opti, ranked No. 318 internationally.During one tournament in the Dominican Republic, he said, a passing thunderstorm was so strong that rain leaked inside from the arenas roof.When I hit the shuttle, it would blow back at me, Opti said.---Follow Foster Klug at www.twitter.com/apklug Cheap NFL Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys China Cheap Jerseys From China Cheap NFL Jerseys Authentic Wholesale Jerseys China Cheap NFL Jerseys China NFL Cheap Jerseys ' ' '
