Boston red sox most wins in a single season

(CNN) In a match that was largely low on quality, it was a standout moment of brilliance that eventually gave Real Madrid a narrow 1-0 win over 10-man Atalanta in the Champions League round of 16. Full back Ferland Mendy broke the deadlock with only four minutes remaining with a delightful goal from outside the area, after Real had put Atalanta under relentless pressure following Remo Freuler's early sending off. Atalanta defended resolutely after going down to 10 men with only 17 minutes on the clock and limited Real to only a handful of half chances for the remainder of the match. However, Real's dominance eventually paid off as Mendy curled home a fabulous strike to give Zinedine Zidane's side a crucial away goal ahead of the return leg in Madrid on March 16. Ferland Mendy celebrates his late winning goal.

November 20, 2014 08:09 Suh Jeong-woo has become the nation's first caddy to earn W100 million in one year as he helped the 19-year-old rookie Kim Hyo-joo win over W1 billion in prize money in a single season for the first time in the Korean Ladies Professional Golf Association. Caddies are generally paid on a weekly basis during tournaments, and if their player wins the title or makes the top 10, they receive 5-10 percent of the prize money as an incentive. Suh, 29, said he couldn't imagine that he would earn that much money as a caddy. He is glad but he can't believe it's actually happening, he added. Kim earned a total of W1.14 billion in prize money this season with five wins including three major titles on the KLPGA. Whenever she claimed a title, Kim took a photo with Suh as they held up the trophy together in recognition of his contribution. Communicating frankly with the player is the key, Suh said. When he makes a mistake, he does not hesitate to … [Read more...] about First Korean Caddy to Earn W100 Million in a Season

PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Sidelined two weeks because of COVID-19 protocols, Claude Giroux had enough of watching Flyers games on TV. “It’s not that fun watching the guys play when you’re at home,” he said. READ MORE: Police Searching For Two Suspects Wanted In Northeast Philadelphia Homicide Giroux made it fun playing with the Flyers. His 903rd career game tied him with Bill Barber for most in the regular season with Philadelphia. He also had three assists in his return from a coronavirus absence to lead the Flyers over the New York Rangers 4-3 on Wednesday night. “Surprised would be an understatement,” coach Alain Vigneault said. “I didn’t really know what to expect, but you could tell early on he had his game tonight.” Giroux, who played his first game since Feb. 7, led the Flyers with eight shots on goal, 12 total shot attempts, three points and was 8 of 11 on faceoffs. “This was one of his better games all year,” Vigneault said. James van Riemsdyk and Shayne Gostisbehere … [Read more...] about Claude Giroux Powers Flyers To 4-3 Win Over Rangers In First Game Back From COVID

The Milton Keynes-based team appears to have gone out of its way to make sure that no detailed images of its new RB16B can be accessed by rival teams prior to the first day of pre-season testing in Bahrain. After conducting a filming day at Silverstone with both its RB15 car from 2019 and the new RB16B on Wednesday, it was noticeable that of the 76 images the team released after running, none of them were of the new car. Shots were captured of Max Verstappen, Sergio Perez and Alex Albon all in action and in the garage over the full day of running, but each was captured driving the RB15 only. All of the full car garage shots, panning shots and front views were of the old car. The RB16B was missing in action. While it would not be amiss of a second-rate team and photographer to accidentally send out the wrong car images and omit any shots of the new machine, Red Bull is a sharp outfit that knows what it is doing. So you can bet that the choice of images that were … [Read more...] about Red Bull’s missing RB16B fuels tech secret intrigue

Red Bull released images of the new RB16B car on Tuesday before completing a filming day with Verstappen and new team-mate Sergio Perez at Silverstone on Wednesday. Intrigue has been fuelled by Red Bull’s decision not to issue any images of the 100km shakedown , with the team only releasing pictures of the 2019-spec RB15 being driven. Asked about his first impressions of the car and whether it had addressed any areas of concern from last year, Verstappen said it was hard to draw any firm judgements form such a short run on Pirelli’s prescribed demonstration tyres. “The thing is we drive on demo tyres, so it will never feel how it’s going to feel on real tyres,” said Verstappen. “I never really base a lot of my findings on this. It’s more just wanting to get the car out, run a few laps, and it all felt normal to me. “We just need to wait and see what’s happening in Bahrain once we have proper tyres under the car. I just wanted to get the car out and run, do our 100km, … [Read more...] about Verstappen: Hard to judge Red Bull progress after F1 shakedown run
