PEBBLE BEACH, Calif. Nike Air Max Rea Sverige . -- Jimmy Walker and Jordan Spieth are tied for the lead at the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am, which should surprise no one. Walker went eight years and 187 starts on the PGA Tour before his first victory, and now he cant seem to lose. He already has won twice in this new wraparound season, the Frys.com Open and Sony Open, and he has played 36 holes this week without making a bogey. That included a 69 at Spyglass Hill on Friday. And it helps that Walker has finished in the top 10 at Pebble Beach each of the last three years. "Its definitely not old," he said of this position he keeps finding himself in. "Ive been here before after 36 holes and after 54 and after 72. You do get more comfortable and you start to realize what it takes." Spieth had an amazing rookie season, going from no status at the start of the year to No. 7 in the FedEx Cup and a spot on the Presidents Cup team. And the 20-year-old Texan has shown no sign of stopping. Throw out that missed cut at the Sony Open, a matter of the hole failing to get in the way of his putts, and consider his start. He led after the first and third rounds at Kapalua, where he played in the final group and finished second. He led after 36 holes at the Farmers Insurance Open and played in the final group at Torrey Pines. Spieth had a 67 at Monterey Peninsula, following a 67 at Spyglass Hill, and now heads to Pebble Beach. In his young career -- 27 tournaments in the book since turning pro -- he already has a win at the John Deere Classic and four runner-up finishes. Spieth doesnt see the four second-place finishes as failures, rather learning experiences, which shows a maturity beyond his years. Both still have one more day before they can truly figure out where they stand. Walker was at 9-under 135 and heads to Monterey Peninsula, the easiest of the three courses in the rotation. Spieth was at 9-under 134 and goes to Pebble Beach, which can be brutal in nasty weather. And the forecast for Saturday was not particularly pleasant. Along with a three-club wind on the exposed sections of all three courses, steady rain began coming down sideways toward the end of the second round. There was about a 75 per cent chance for more rain Saturday, and Sunday didnt appear to be much better. More than looking ahead, Spieth was looking behind. He was happy to at least get Spyglass out of the way already, having opened with a 67 on Thursday. That didnt make the Shore Course at Monterey Peninsula a picnic. "Today was very difficult," Spieth said. "We started out in the rain and wind, and we finished in rainier and windier," he said. Spieth caught Walker for a share of the lead on the 187-yard ninth hole, which typically requires a 6-iron. He watched Kevin Chappell hit first with a 3-iron, and the ball rolled back down off the front of the green. Spieth doesnt carry a 3-iron. "I went to a hybrid," he said. "And I just kind of hit a little stinger cut about 20 feet away. And then it was normally a straight putt and Michael (Greller) and I, my caddie, are looking at each other saying, Well, weve got to play this about a foot out to the right with the wind. And so I hit it a foot out. With about 3 feet to go, the wind just blew it right, just broke perfectly right into the hole." Walkers best holes were his pars, particularly the par-5 14th. His 8-iron came back down into a bunker, leaving him such an awkward lie that he had to plant his feet outside the sand. With a shallow swing, he did well to blast out 12 feet away, and he made the par putt. "That was pretty big to keep it feeling like things were still in my favour," Walker said. He made two long birdie putts, and then hit a drive of nearly 390 yards on the seventh hole -- with the aid of a cart path. It left him only an 8-iron to the green, and he had an easy up-and-down for his final birdie. Hunter Mahan had a 68 at Spyglass Hill, with half of his six birdies on the par 5s. He was at 8-under 136. "Coming up these last few holes are tough," Mahan said. "Theyre uphill, they got the wind, its getting cold, raining. You just dont want to throw away shots. Because this can be a long week, and it could be mentally more grinding than anything." Phil Mickelson had a 73 at Pebble Beach and was five shots behind, even though he has taken 62 putts over two rounds. "Tee to green, Im playing very well, but I havent putted this poorly in a year," he said. "For the way Im hitting it, its a little disappointing because I should have a really good opportunity. And Ill have to turn it around. Its not too late, but Ive got to get it turned around here." Nike Air Max 270 Sverige . American Lindsey Jacobellis was third, while Japans Yuka Fujimori finished just off the podium.

The American secured his first back-to-back ATP match wins since June to leave Tsonga relying on his performance at next weeks Paris Masters to clinch one of the final three places for the season-ending event in London. Tsonga would have moved up one spot to No. 6 with a win over Querrey at the City of Arts and Sciences, but his serve deserted him in the second set as the 116th-ranked American broke twice to reach the quarter-finals. http://www.reaairmaxsverige.com/air-max-just-do-it-rabatt.html .J. -- Jaromir Jagr has hit so many NHL milestones this season for the New Jersey Devils that he is starting to downplay them.Connacht made a big statement on their return to the Champions Cup with a thrilling 23-21 comeback win over Toulouse at the Sportsground. Craig Ronaldsons coolly-struck conversion of Bundee Akis 67th-minute try proved to be the decisive score as Toulouse fell to a fifth successive away defeat in Europe for the first time in their history.The French giants raw power saw them open up a 21-11 interval lead, Sebastien Bezys three early scrum penalties topped up by tries from Yann David and Jean-Marc Doussain. Bundee Akis performance helped Connacht seal the win In between, Connacht had recovered from their sluggish start to set up Ireland prospect Niyi Adeolokuns fourth try of the season, with Jack Carty also kicking two penalties.Back in Europes top tier for the first time since 2013/14, the Westerners went on to punish tiring Toulouse with back-to-back tries from full-back Tiernan OHalloran and the talismanic Aki, whose centre partner Ronaldson nailed the all-important conversion.After a superb scrummaging display against Clermont Auvergne last week, Toulouse brought that set-piece strength to Galway with Bezy rewarding his forwards with three penalty goals inside 13 minutes. Toby Flood was full of praise for Connachts comeback as they grabbeed a late win Two lineout steals from Andrew Browne and Ultan Dillane got Connacht firing towards the end of the first quarter, Cian Kelleher sidestepping through before prop Finlay Bealham was stopped short of the line.

Pat Lams men were over just a couple of minutes later, Dillanes leap setting up a thrilling backline move spearheaded by Ronaldson and Aki. Possession was retained and winger Adeolokun was sent over in the right corner. Yann David barges over for Toulouses first try Carty missed the difficult conversion but nailed a right-sided penalty in the 25th minute, and the home pack went close to scoring from a maul before Carty knocked over his second successful kick for 11-9.Bezy sent a difficult long-range strike wide of the posts after Connacht tighthead Conor Carey was warned for his angle of scrummaging. He also missed the conversion of Davids 34th-minute try, the strongly-built centre scoring in the left corner despite the presence of three Connacht defenders.Even better followed two minutes later for the small pocket of visiting fans, Toulouses offloads sticking and a free-flowing move full of flair ending with fly-half Doussain driving in under the posts. Jean-Marc Doussain scores Toulouses second try Having turned down three points on the stroke of half-time, Connacht blundered at the ensuing lineout and Carty also missed the first place-kick of the second half.The gap remained at 10 points after an equally poor kick from Bezy at the other end. The PRO12 champions, though, found another gear closing in on the hour mark, OHalloran cutting inside Gael Fickou to finish off Cartys long pass.Although the tough conversion proved beyond Carty, OHalloran, Kelleher and Ronaldson all continued to bubble with intent in the backline. They were aided by the timely impact off the bench of Kieran Marmion - the man-of-the-match from Connachts famous 2013 win in Toulouse - and the strong-carrying Sean OBrien.In a grandstand finish, Connacht kept grinding their way up into the Toulouse 22. Ugo Molas side were looking sluggish and Aki surged over thanks to a big hand-off on Talalelei Gray.The raucous home crowd erupted when Ronaldson curled over a peach of a conversion and with Toulouses error count increasing and a vital 73rd-minute scrum holding firm for Connacht, they deservedly held on in breathless fashion.You can watch Liverpool v Man Utd, plus Englands tour of Bangladesh and the British Masters on Sky Sports.
