NAPLES, Fla. -- Ariya Jutanugarn was unable to accept the CME Globe trophy when it was first being presented to her, needing both hands to hold a big plastic cube stuffed with $1 million in cash.Thats a great way to end a season.Jutanugarns breakout year ended with a haul of prizes Sunday at the CME Group Tour Championship: the LPGA Tours Player of the Year award, the money title and the season-long Race to CME Globe points competition that comes with a $1 million bonus.A winner of five tournaments in a year that started slowly with a major meltdown in the California desert and was turned around by three consecutive wins in May, Jutanugarn held off Lydia Ko for all three of those trophies.I never expected like that much, Jutanugarn said. I just really wanted to win my first tournament this year.In Gee Chun made a 10-footer for birdie on the final hole to win the scoring title by the slimmest of margins, making her the first player since Nancy Lopez in 1978 to win both the Vare Trophy and Rookie of the Year in the same season. If Chuns final putt had not fallen, Ko would have won the Vare for the first time.Its still been a very cool season for me, said Ko, the worlds No. 1 player, who wrapped Jutanugarn in a big hug when their rounds were complete before heading off to sign dozens of autographs.Combined, Ko and Chun took more than 11,500 swings over 166 rounds -- and the scoring title came down to one putt.It was big pressure for me, Chun said. I just tried to enjoy my last putt. ... It was a big honor for me, to have my name next to legends.Add her to the list of young stars on the LPGA Tour. Shes 22, Jutanugarn turns 21 later this week and Ko doesnt even turn 20 until early next year.Add Charley Hull to that list as well. Shes a tournament winner now.Another 20-year-old -- youth is most definitely served in this era of womens golf -- Hull looked like a savvy veteran as she captured her first win. Hull finished 2 shots ahead of So Yeon Ryu, that margin coming after they had a 2-shot swing at the 17th. Ryus approach came to rest along a 3-foot face of a bunker, forcing her to play off to the side and wind up settling for bogey.Hull made birdie there, then coolly 2-putted on the 18th to prevail. She shot 66-66 in a bogey-free weekend, with 12 birdies and 24 pars in her final 36 holes of the season.I was pretty calm, Hull said. I went on the golf course and tried not to think about golf.There were tournaments within the tournament, with many things decided in the seasons final minutes. Player of the Year was settled first, when it became evident that Ko -- who needed a win and nothing less to take that title -- was not going to catch Hull. The Race to CME Globe came next, with this being the first time in that awards three-year history that it wouldnt go to Ko.The scoring title then came down to Kos and Chuns final putts, and about a half-hour later, Hull finished off the week and the season by making her first win the tour championship.Its a pretty cool feeling, Hull said. Hasnt quite sunk in yet.Hull finished at 19-under 269. So Yeon Ryu (67) was second, Jennifer Song (68) followed at 15 under, and Jutanugarn (69) was 14 under with Mo Martin (68) and Beatriz Recari (68). Chun (70) was seventh at 13 under.DIVOTS: Ko shot a 10-under 62 on Friday, but her other rounds this week were 70, 73 and 72. She tied for 10th at 11 under. ... Shanshan Feng of China finished her season with a birdie and ended this week 12 under. She had won her last two starts and was eighth or better in her final seven events of 2016. ... Former world No. 1 Stacy Lewis is 0-for-63 since winning midway through what was her second player-of-the-year campaign in 2014. She shot 76 and tied for 42nd. ... Defending champion Cristie Kerr (72) tied for 22nd, 12 back of Hull. . -- Lou Brocks shoulder-to-shoulder collision with Bill Freehan during the 1968 World Series and Pete Roses bruising hit on Ray Fosse in the 1970 All-Star game could become relics of baseball history, like the dead-ball era.

Goals from Jerome Boateng, Franck Ribery and Thomas Mueller extended Bayerns unbeaten run to a record 37 matches. "This record is incredible," Bayern coach Pep Guardiola said. . -- On the field, it was business as usual for Jameis Winston and No. [url=http://www.soccerparissaintgermainshop.com/kids-serge-aurier-paris-saint-ge... Aurier Jersey . -- Vincent Lecavalier got everything but the desired result in his return to Tampa Bay. BALTIMORE -- The Baltimore Orioles enjoy playing at home, and theyre hoping for more success at Camden Yards when they take on the Boston Red Sox in the finale of their two-game series on Wednesday.Both teams come into the game deadlocked at 66-52, tied for second in the American League East, one game behind Toronto (68-52).The Orioles will play 24 of their final 44 games at home -- where they have a 39-18 record after Tuesdays 5-3 loss to Boston. Third baseman Manny Machado said the Orioles -- who just came off of a 10-game road trip to Chicago, Oakland and San Francisco -- are glad to be back home.Were just trying to take it day-by-day, Machado said. We have the greatest fans in the world. We feed off of that. That takes us to another level.Chris Tillman was supposed to start for Baltimore, but after Tuesdays game, manager Buck Showalter said the Orioles are going to push him back to at least Saturday due to some shoulder issues.A lot of things most starting pitchers go through, especially in August, Orioles manager Buck Showalter said. But thats why I had pushed everybody back a day, (to) give everybody some time.Instead, rookie right-hander Dylan Bundy (6-3, 2.93) will make his seventh start. Hes been spectacular in five of his six starts, and the hard-hitting Red Sox could give him a test.David Price (10-8, 4.29) is set to start for the Red Sox. Price gave up three runs on 10 hits in a 9-4 victory over Arizona last Friday. That ended a stretch of five starts without a victory for the veteran left-hander.The Red Sox have just started a long 11-gamee road trip, but even manager John Farrell said Oriole Park is a good place to play.ddddddddddddThis is a great ballpark, Farrell said of Camden Yards. When the weather is warm, its a very good hitters ballpark.The Red Sox are hoping for some better luck with injuries Wednesday as two members of Tuesdays starting lineup were hurt.Third baseman Aaron Hill (right forearm tightness) was in the original starting lineup but Brock Holt replaced him before the game. Starting pitcher Eduardo Rodriguez left after four no-hit innings -- plus two pitches in the fifth -- due to left hamstring tightness.Farrell said they think they caught Rodriguezs problems early, and if everything works out all right, the left-hander might not have to miss a start. But the skipper said theyll have a better idea about things on Wednesday.Boston also was again missing Hanley Ramirez, whos been on the bereavement list since Monday. Farrell said he will re-join the Red Sox on Thursday in Detroit.The Red Sox need to get used to the road games since theyll be playing 28 of their final 44 games on the road. Farrell said his team knows what the situation is in the tight three-team race in the American League East.We all are well aware of what is at stake, where we are in the standings and who is around us, Farrell said. We had guys step up in key moments (on Tuesday).Theyll be hoping for more of the same Wednesday versus one of the best home teams in baseball.
