CRANS-SUR-SIERRE, Switzerland -- Rory McIlroy shot a 2-under 69 to move into a four-way tie for the lead in the European Masters second round on Friday. The U.S. Open winner, who had an eagle two and a double-bogey seven, is 8 under with Englishmen Gary Boyd and Simon Dyson, and Jamie Donaldson of Wales. McIlroy rued missing a four-foot putt for birdie at the 18th. "I really wanted to make that to get into the lead on my own," the Northern Irishman said. "All in all, Im tied for the lead and its not a bad position to be in." Morning leader Nick Dougherty of England ended his 21-tournament streak of failing to make the cut, shooting 72 after his 63 on Thursday to be 7 under. Dougherty has not reached weekend play since the Singapore Open in November 2010, and does not yet figure on the current European money list. "If I can play anything like I did on the first day, Im going to win this tournament and thats what it is all about," said Dougherty, who has three career victories. Joining him one stroke behind the leaders were Martin Kaymer of Germany, Jaco van Zyl of South Africa, Fabrizio Zanotti of Paraguay and Danny Willett of England. World No. 5 Kaymer and sixth-ranked McIlroy can climb to third with victory here. Lee Westwood, the world No. 2, also shot 69 and is two shots back on 6 under with nine other players. Starting his round after lunch, McIlroy hit possibly the days best shot when driving to the pin at the 339-yard fifth, fading right over trees to bypass the dog-leg fairway. He sank the two-footer for an eagle he described as "pretty special," but gave back both shots on the 629-yard ninth. McIlroy pushed his second shot right onto the 10th fairway -- drawing a bemused glance from Kaymer striding in the opposite direction -- and eventually three-putted from four feet. "I was pretty frustrated heading into the back nine," McIlroy acknowledged, "but I played OK. Theres been a lot of traffic on (the greens). You start becoming a little tentative." McIlroy steadied himself and only a birdie at the 15th interrupted his sequence of pars. Kaymer had his own double bogey at the par-3 16th, taking four shots from the green edge after his tee shot found a small hole. "Sixteen was a joke," said the 2010 U.S. PGA champion, who criticized the putting surfaces. "The greens have become really bad in the afternoon. There are a lot of other guys who got stuck at seven or eight under." Kaymer cheered up at the prospect of battling McIlroy for the title and a higher world ranking. "Maybe we can play with each other on Sunday for the victory -- that would be fantastic," the former world No. 1 said. Taking advantage of morning conditions, Willett shot a days best 64. He began at level par, eagled the par-5 first and added five more birdies without dropping a shot. Colin Montgomerie, Europes 2010 Ryder Cup-winning captain, got a 66 to follow his opening-day 76 but was still two shots adrift when the cut was made at 2 under. Jose-Maria Olazabal, who will captain the 2012 team at Medinah, Illinois, shot 76 and was 9 over. The Swiss tournament is the first that counts toward qualifying to represent Europe next year. It is also the only event in Europe co-sanctioned by the European and Asian tours. Noh Seung-yul led the Asian money list last year but missed the cut at 1 over. The 20-year-old South Korean showed power off the tees but a less impressive short game playing alongside McIlroy and Miguel Angel Jimenez. The defending European Masters champion from Spain finished at 4 under. wholesale jerseys .

Just get the ball to Damian Lillard, and get out of the way. No need for any fancy calls when Lillards on the court. The point guard made a tiebreaking 3-pointer with 0.4 seconds remaining, lifting Portland to a 119-116 win over the Cleveland Cavaliers on Tuesday night. "There is no explaining it," Blazers coach Terry Stotts said. "Damian had it going, so we ran it through him." Lillard had a career-high eight 3-pointers while scoring 36 points. The 2013 NBA Rookie of the Year also had a fadeaway jumper as time expired to give Portland a 111-109 overtime victory over Detroit on Sunday. "That was cold-blooded," Cleveland guard Dion Waiters said. "We knew Lillard was getting the ball. That was a big-time shot." Anderson Varejaos tying basket for Cleveland with 7.1 seconds left prompted a Portland timeout. Lillard took the pass at mid-court, dribbled to the top of the key and buried the winning shot over Alonzo Gee from about 26 feet out. "Hes more capable of dribble-driving by you and finishing," Cleveland coach Mike Brown said. "Their last game he drove by somebody and shot a pull-up. So you pick your poison." Lillard had enough time to drive to the basket, but he decided to shoot from beyond the arc. "I didnt want to get in too deep because theyve got some giants in there," Lillard said. "And Alonzo Gee is a great athlete, so I didnt want to drive on him. I gave him a move to get him off balance, and I wanted to be ready when I froze him." Portland (22-4) has the best record in the NBA and is 11-0 against the Eastern Conference. The Blazers have won five straight and are 12-2 on the road. Kyrie Irvings bid for a tying 3-pointer from about 35 feet bounced off the back of the rim at the buzzer. Irving and Waiters scored 25 points apiece for Cleveland. LaMarcus Aldridge had 26 points and 15 rebounds for Portland. Lillards 3-pointer with 5:47 remaining gave Portland a 104-101 lead. Lillard then found Wesley Matthews for another 3, and Aldridges jumper pushed the lead too 109-101 with 4:16 to play.dddddddddddd Matthews made a 3-pointer and Aldridge scored to make it 114-104 with 2:15 remaining. Irving then scored nine straight points for the Cavaliers, including a three-point play with 33.8 seconds left that cut the lead to 116-114. After Aldridge missed in the lane, the Cavaliers called timeout with 16.5 seconds remaining. Irving drove into the lane and found Varejao, who tied the game. "That was an offensive shootout by both teams," Stotts said. "They made a great comeback to tie the game, but we keep finding a way to win. Obviously, Damian was fantastic." Waiters scored 11 points in the fourth quarter. He missed the morning shootaround after banging knees with teammate Tyler Zeller in practice Monday. Lillard hit three 3-pointers within a span of 1:09 in the third quarter as the Blazers scored nine straight points to overcome a 69-61 deficit. The Blazers began their four-game trip with a 35-point win in Philadelphia on Saturday in which they hit 21 3-pointers and followed that with two dramatic victories. They went 15 for 33 from long range against the Cavs. Cleveland scored the first nine points of the fourth quarter to take a 97-92 lead. Six points by Waiters and a 3-pointer by Earl Clark accounted for the run. The game featured two of the hottest players in the league.
