| NAPLES, Fla. - The biggest challenge facing Lydia Ko is how she can top a rookie season like this one.The 17-year-old from New Zealand sat next to a pair of crystal trophies Sunday evening. At her feet was a glass box that was stuffed with cash to symbolize the $1 million bonus she picked up on an historic end to the LPGA Tour season.She was an instant millionaire when she closed with a 4-under 68 to get into a three-way playoff in the CME Group Tour Championship. She already had finished high enough to clinch the inaugural Race to CME Globe and its $1 million bonus.Then, she collected another trophy by winning the Tour Championship with a par on the fourth extra hole to pick up an extra $500,000. Only the tournament earnings count toward the money list, and it made Ko the first rookie to surpass $2 million in a year.The most pressure she felt all week was Thursday night, when she had to give an acceptance speech as LPGA rookie of the year.Its been an awesome week, and a week Ill never forget, Ko said.As an amateur, her mother used to give her $10 for every shot she finished under par. Ko won twice on the LPGA Tour as an amateur, and she made her pro debut last year at the Tour Championship by earning $16,063.So to leave town with $1.5 million in one day was a little difficult to digest.Its huge money, you know? Ko said. Even $1,000 is huge money. For us, $100 is huge money. So its getting bigger. But the great things about my friends is most of them dont play golf. When Im hanging around with them, we dont talk about golf or the hook I hit on 7 or whatever. So thats what I really love. I feel like I can get off the course, get my mind free and just be that teenager.On the golf course, she looks like a world beater.Ko already has five LPGA Tour victories, and shes still not old enough to legally drink the champagne that players sprayed on her when she won. She heads back to New Zealand for a two-month off-season before figuring out what she can do next.Its going to be tough, she said. I think I played pretty awesome this year. Ive had 14 top 10s and three wins. Its a year that I would have never thought I would have. Its hard year to top. Just playing consistently is my goal for my whole career.She was consistent on Sunday, especially in the playoff held on the 425-yard 18th hole, which yielded only four birdies in the final round.Ko left it to the others to blink first.Julieta Granada of Paraguay, who closed with a 71, was the first to be eliminated when she three-putted from the collar of the green, missing a 5-foot par putt that spun in and out of the cup.Carlota Ciganda of Spain twice had a chance to pick up her first LPGA Tour victory. She closed with a 70, a score that could have been one shot better if not for missing a 3-foot birdie putt on the 17th hole in regulation that would have given her a one-shot lead.On the third playoff hole, Ciganda had a 5-foot birdie putt for the win and missed it. On the fifth time playing the 18th hole — and fourth in the playoff — she pulled her approach left of the green and watched it bounce down the slope and into the hazard.Just missed one shot, and not the right way, Ciganda said.She took a penalty drop and chipped to 3 feet. Ko had two putts for the win, and her birdie putt stopped an inch from going in. No matter. The kid was a winner again, and richer than ever.The top three players — Stacy Lewis, Inbee Park and Ko — only had to win the tournament to assure themselves the $1 million bonus. Lewis never had much of a chance and tied for ninth. Park was four shots worse and tied for 24th.Ko just went about her work, thinking more about birdies than cash.Shes a great player, Lewis said. She got that innocence about her that she doesnt even realize whats going on. She probably has no idea how the scenarios and points work out. Maybe its to her advantage.Lewis did not leave empty-handed.She became the first American in 21 years to sweep the three most significant awards on the LPGA Tour — player of the year, the Vare Trophy for the lowest scoring average and the money title.The $1 million would have been nice, Lewis said. But those three, thats what I came here for. Derek Jeter Jersey . -- Andrew Wiggins is from Canada, Wayne Selden from Massachusetts and Joel Embiid from the African nation of Cameroon.

Nine-year veteran Danny Granger did not make his debut with the Clippers because of a technicality on the teams active list, which is signed by coach Doc Rivers before every game and relayed to the officials.

Thurman Munson Yankees Jersey . Its the games against the leagues struggling franchises that have proved to be an issue. Alex Rodriguez Yankees Jersey . In the days leading up to the draft, TSN.ca and TSN Radio basketball analyst Duane Watson looks at some of the names that will be headlining the event. Tonight, Michigans Nik Stauskas of Mississauga, Ontario.Sunderland manager Sam Allardyce thought his side did enough in the second half to win their game against Arsenal but is happy with a vital point following their 0-0 draw. The result lifts the Black Cats out of the relegation zone on goal difference with four games left to play in the Premier League.I thought second half we did enough to maybe pinch the game 1-0, Allardyce told Sky Sports. We coped extremely well with the possession they had and did limit them mostly to shots from outside the box. Laurent Koscielny of Arsenal battles Sunderlands Jermain Defoe for the ball Second half once we shut [Mohamed] Elneny and [Aaron] Ramsey down and stopped them playing, we started to get amongst it and win more possession, use the ball better and put Arsenal under quite a lot of pressure. So Im very pleased with the turnaround in our performance.[We] made the keeper work in the second half, which was good. I thought we should have had a definite penalty on [Jermain] Defoe, but overall Im very pleased with the clean sheet and the point.Both sides had a shout for a penalty for handball late in the first half, but while Allardyce believes DeAndre Yedlins block on Alex Iwobis shot was accidental, he thought Per Mertesackers handling of Defoes shot should have been given.Ive looked at it and said Yedlin has no chance of getting his arm out of the way because it hits his leg and arm, said Allardyce. I cant see that being any chance of being a penalty, whereas Mertesacker has turned his back on the ball, his arm is outstretched and hes stopped whats a certain goal I think.You want those things to go for you in our position, but we have earned a point today and the second-half performance it could havee been three.ddddddddddddllardyce now firmly believes his side can go on to stay in the Premier League, beating fellow strugglers Norwich and Newcastle to survive the drop. Defoe says Sunderland should 100% have been awarded a penalty during their 0-0 draw with Arsenal He said: Were out of the bottom three with four games to go. Can we stay there? Now the challenge to the lads is to maintain that, go to Stoke and try and get a win to keep out of the bottom three.The resilience of the team and the way the teams playing, I couldnt ask for anymore. Weve grown in confidence since January and we have slipped up ourselves by not getting more points and making it safer than it is now, but were heading down the right track.
