Justin Thomas holds one-shot lead in California Justin Thomas continued his hot start to the Zozo Championship to grab a one-shot lead after another low-scoring day in California. Dylan Frittelli and Lanto Griffin matched Thomas' score to sit in a share of second, with Patrick Cantlay a further stroke back in tied-fourth alongside Scottie Scheffler and Richy Werenski jump- ing within three of the lead after a course-record 61. Tyrrell Hatton leads the European interest after three birdies in the last four holes helped him to a four-under 68, lifting him to tied-sixth, while Rory McIlroy and Tiger Woods both lost further ground on the lead despite carding rounds of 67 and 66 respectively. Beginning on the back nine, Thomas made a two-putt gain at the 11th and holed a 20-footer from off the next green, with further birdies over his next two holes followed by another at the par-four 16th. Thomas birdied the first and made par at the next despite finding water with his approach, before converting a 10-footer at the third and seeing out his bogey-free card by draining clutch 15- foot par-save at the par-three eighth. "I played well," Thomas said. "I'm not very pleased with the finish. The last six holes I would have liked to at least have got something.

  • Salem Spartans Steal Show with Top Picks in TNPL Season 5 Draft Vijay Shankar, M Ashwin, Periyasamy in Washington Sundar’S Team
    Salem Spartans steal show with top picks in TNPL Season 5 draft Vijay Shankar, M Ashwin, Periyasamy in Washington Sundar’s team Chennai, February 20: Salem Spartans made full use of their first position in the order of the Tamil Nadu Twenty20 Premier League Season 5 draft to pick a strong squad on Thursday. The Spartans, formerly Tuti Patriots, not only netted the big fish, India all-rounder Vijay Shankar but they also laid their hands-on Season 4 top wicket-taker Ganeshan Periyasamy and star leg-spinner Murugan Ashwin. In fact, they managed to pick six players who represented last year’s winners, Chepauk Super Gillies. Chepauk, however, also had a say in the proceedings picking Season 4’s top run-getter wicketkeeper batsman Narayan Jagadeesan. Spartan stars Washington Sundar and Vijay Shankar were confident of a better show and improve upon the fifth-placed finish last year. The two top-guns are likely to play the full season when the tournament kicks off from June 10, 2020. “It is a great boost to have Vijay Shankar in the side. It is a new setup and we are looking to do better this year,” said Sundar, who was among the three players retained by the franchise. “In the last three years I have played for different teams every year but I have only played 3 games of TNPL. I am looking forward to play the full season and help the team win matches and the tournament as well,” Vijay Shankar said. Chepauk coach Hemang Badani was unperturbed about losing key players from his title-winning squad.
