NAPLES, Fla. -- Hold this. Hold that. Just one more.On Sunday, at the end of the CME Group Tour Championship that closed the 2016 LPGA season, there was more posing for photos than at a wedding between two people from large families.Photos with trophies, silver and crystal. With jewelry and watches. With a box full of money, which looks to weigh more than youd think.The women smiling with the spoils at Tiburon Golf Club were young and from around the world, which is the way of the LPGA. The average age of winners on tour in 2016 was 23. They hailed from 12 countries -- Americans won only two of 33 tournaments, the fewest ever.Englands Charley Hull made it an even dozen with her two-stroke CME victory over So Yeon Ryu, the quick-talking, fast-playing, brisk-swinging 20-year-old performing as if she had taken many leads into the final round, when this was the first time. One sure couldnt tell from her scorecard, which was as clean as the lobby floor of the nearby Ritz. Hull shot her second consecutive six-under 66 for a 19-under 269 total and her first LPGA title, and she needed it too, with Ryu closing with a 67.It was a great day to be 20. Ariya Jutanugarn of Thailand, who turns 21 on Nov. 23, tied for fourth place after a closing 69. That was good enough, though, to hold off Lydia Ko (tied for 10th) to claim Rolex Player of the Year honors and a $1 million bonus for winning the season-long Race to the CME Globe, an awkward but deadly accurate designation given the LPGAs international trend.Its great. Its like my dream come true, said Jutanugarn, who led the tour with five victories in 2016. I never thought my name could be on this trophy, and right now Im really proud of myself.Ko, who is still No. 1 in the Rolex World Rankings, almost walked off with the Vare Trophy for lowest scoring average until South Korean In Gee Chun, all of 22 years old, finished birdie-birdie-birdie to edge the 19-year-old New Zealander. This battle made a photo finish look like a romp as Chun finished with a 69.583 average to Kos 69.596. With the Louise Suggs Rolex Rookie of the Year award Chun clinched weeks ago, she is the first since Nancy Lopez in 1978 to win both trophies in the same season.Many of the women golfers who have turned professional very young in the past decade or so have been from Asia, but Hull left the amateur ranks at 16 and started playing on the Ladies European Tour as a 17-year-old in 2013. A Solheim Cupper that year, the youngest ever, she had an LET victory but no wins in 51 LPGA starts before teeing off this week.Starting the final round with a one-stroke lead over Ryu and Brittany Lincicome, Hull birdied three of the first eight holes and went to the back nine still one ahead of Ryu, the 2011 U.S. Womens Open champion who was looking for her first LPGA victory in two years.It feels great to be a winner on the LPGA Tour, Hull said. Its wicked to do it at 20. Its fun. Ariya has had a great year, Lydia, Brooke [Henderson]. It feels good to be one of the young ones that have won.As with Jutanugarn, whose mantra since spring has been about having fun on the course, Hull is a keep-it-simple type of golfer. She could be the first person to win an important tournament with her mind on a dessert.As the pressure [built] on the back nine I got into my swing, Hull said. It kind of helped a little bit having that pressure on me to hit it good. Just kind of stuck to my rhythm. I have this swing, strawberry mousse. My swing goes back to strawberry, and comes down to mousse, a bit faster. My dad used to say it to me when I was 2 years old to get my rhythm. Ive had it in my head since the Olympics. Feels good.Despite her strong play, Hull came to the par-5 17th hole tied with Ryu at 18 under. The outcome turned on Ryus fairway metal second shot, which barely missed carrying a greenside bunker and finished at the base of a four-foot-tall revetted wall. She was forced to play out sideways and failed to get up-and-down for par. Hull chipped to four feet and made birdie to take a two-stroke cushion to the last hole.I didnt really mis-hit the shot, Ryu said of her second shot at 17. Thats the shot I wanted to hit and I did it. Unfortunately, the wind stopped. I feel like God did it. Maybe he wants me to do something else, even training harder or practicing harder. Finally, though, I feel like Im completely ready to win the tournament. I hope I can have this feel until next year as well.Jutanugarn certainly would bottle the ingredients from her 2016 season, including as it did, three straight victories and five overall, including a major title. That such a breakthrough season occurred after a rough 2015, when she missed 10 straight cuts and quit practice rounds because she was afraid where her shots were going, makes it all the more remarkable.Even though I missed those 10 cuts in a row, I appreciate it, because if that thing hadnt happened, Im not going to win all this stuff this year, said Jutanugarn, who called her performance coaches Pia Nilsson and Lynn Marriott on Sunday morning. I feel this week is very, very special because Ive been really nervous. I kept calling [Nilsson and Marriott], like I cant do this. Even before this round, Im like, What should I do? She is going to Disney World now, to celebrate her birthday -- I feel old, Jutanugarn said -- and spend some of her big bonus. Maybe a little bit on [sister] Mo, but like a lot with my mom.Ko, who won the CME Globe the past two season, is looking forward to a break after a week that included a 62 but also some loose shots, and a season in which she won four times but included a mediocre stretch for the 14-time career winner.I am planning to not touch my clubs or look at them for the next month, said Ko, whose bogey on the 71st hole opened the door for Chun in the Vare competition. Ive looked at them for the last 11 months. I think theyre sick of me, too. I say that, but I dont know what I would do without golf. Thats how much I like it. But a little bit of time off is going to be fun.When Hull wasnt thinking of a sweet to help her timing, she was remembering silly things her mates back home had done to tame the tension. Hull will join them over the holidays.Just going out with my friends and having fun with them over Christmas, Hull said. Couple of pub crawls and stuff like that. Theyre good in England. The drinking age is 18.Or, in other words, close to the winning age on the LPGA, with no graying on the horizon. Nike Lunarglide 5 Womens . Malkin got tangled up with Detroits Luke Glendening early in the third period and his left skate took the brunt of collision with the boards behind Pittsburghs net. Buy Nike Air Max 90 Online . McCarthy, a player who played some games in the second tier for Wigan at the start of this season, would go on to shine inside Evertons midfield, outplaying the man he was brought in to replace, on one of the grandest stages in English football. On Saturday, it was fitting that Manchester Uniteds most recent dagger into the chest was delivered by Frenchman Yohan Cabaye, a wonderfully gifted central midfielder who put on an outstanding effort for Newcastle at Old Trafford. http://www.buymaxfreeuk.net/ . "Trying to breathe," he said with a grin. Bernier stopped 42 of 43 shots on Monday night, including all 22 in a hectic middle frame, his heroic performance propelling the Leafs toward an undue point in their final game before the Christmas break. Cheap Nike Air Max 90 Trainers Sale . Robinson finished with 17 points, all but two in the second half, and Lawson had 14 after halftime and finished with a game-high 11 assists as the Nuggets handed Dallas its first home loss in eight games this season. J.J. Hickson led Denver with 22, and Kenneth Faried added 10 points and 10 rebounds. Nike Roshe Run Print Trainers . A knee to the thigh might have stung him the most, but his sixth straight double-double made up for the brief burst of pain. DAVIE, Fla. -- The?Miami Dolphins?released backup defensive tackle?Leon Orr?one day after he was arrested in Collier County, Florida, and charged with possession of marijuana and a controlled substance.The?Naples Daily News?first reported news of the Tuesday arrest, adding that Orr posted $7,000 bond.Coach Adam Gase told reporters that the Dolphins found out about the arrest during Wednesdays practice and immediately waived Orr.Were in the middle of the season.

Theres a lot of people putting in a lot of work -- players, coaches and staff members. Everybody is counting on everybody to do the right thing. Thats really the only way you have a chance to be successful. If we have people pulling in different directions and this isnt their top priority, wed rather not be around those people.Orr played five games for Miami this season and recorded one tackle.The Dolphins are 7-4 and in the thick of the playoff race.
