ROGERS, Ark. Marouane Fellaini Jersey . - Whether its because of her improved play or the reason for it, Michelle Wie appears as comfortable on and off the golf course as at any time in her career. Wie continued her season-long surge on the LPGA Tour on Saturday, shooting her second straight 5-under 66 to take a two-shot lead in the suspended second round of the NW Arkansas Championship. The performance put the U.S. Womens Open champion within a round of back-to-back wins for the first time in her LPGA Tour career, not that she showed any signs of stress after reaching 10 under overall. In fact, shortly after surging into the lead at Pinnacle Country Club, Wie joined PGA Tour pros Rickie Fowler and Keegan Bradley as part of a social media challenge in dumping a bucket of ice water on herself on the driving range. Yes, life is good at the moment for Wie. "I think it comes hand in hand," Wie said about her winning and revamped attitude. "... I played really well toward the end of the year last year ... took a lot of time off, took about a month and a half. So, I just felt really refreshed, and I think it comes hand in hand." All 72 players in the afternoon session were unable to finish on Saturday because of thunderstorms, with second-round play expected to finish early Sunday before the final round begins later in the morning. Before the rain arrived, the morning pairings were once again left chasing Wie — who earned her first major victory at the U.S. Womens Open last week at Pinehurst after winning earlier in the season in her home state of Hawaii. So Yeon Ryu, paired with Wie, was second at 8 under after her second straight 67, while Suzann Pettersen, Chella Choi and Line Vedel were three strokes back. Pettersen had a 67, Choi shot 65, and Vedel had five holes left. Top-ranked and local favourite Stacy Lewis was four shots behind at 6 under, a week after finishing a shot behind Wie at Pinehurst. The two are training and practice partners in Florida, and Wie couldnt help but challenge her friend to the ice bucket shower after her dousing. "Michelles obviously playing some really good golf," Lewis said. "Im going to have to shoot a good number tomorrow. ... At least I put a good number up today, and well see what happens tomorrow." Lewis made the early charge Saturday to close within a shot of first-round leader Alena Sharp of Hamilton, much to the delight of the pro-Arkansas crowd — where Lewis played collegiately. Sharp made it through 15 holes prior to the delay. For the second straight day, however, Wie saved her best for the back. She jumped into contention with a 4-under 31 on the back nine on Friday. After teeing off on the back nine Saturday, she once again closed with a flurry — birdieing four of her final seven holes to shoot a 4-under 32 and surge into the lead. She putted 29 times on Saturday, a day after needing 28 in her opening round using her more hunched-over style. "These days, Michelles on fire," Ryu said. "I played with her today and yesterday, and her putting was awesome. I think thats why she could win a major tournament." Wie put the finishing touch on her round — and quest for a second straight tournament victory — with a 3-foot birdie putt on No. 9 that put her within reach of back-to-back wins. "I just want to kind of get through tomorrow," Wie said. "But at the same time, it is definitely in the back of my mind ... If I can get it done, hopefully it will happen." Wie held off Lewis by a shot to win her first major title in the U.S Womens Open. Playing a group behind Lewis on Saturday, Wie bogeyed her second hole, No. 11, and recovered with a birdie on the par-5 14th. She followed that with a second straight birdie on a par 5, getting up and down off the fringe on No. 18 to reach 6 under. Her birdie spree followed on the front nine, with large galleries following both Lewis and Wie. Lewis followed a sluggish first round in which she putted 31 times by needing only 24 putts on Saturday. She stumbled with a bogey out of the greenside bunker on the par-3 fourth hole before recovering with birdies on No. 5 and 9. Shell need more of the same if she or anyone else is to catch Wie on Sunday. "Its going to have to be something pretty low," Lewis said. "The way Michelle and a lot of those girls play, theyre not really going to come back to us." Thomas Vermaelen Jersey . It was a day that saw England slump off a World Cup field once again battered and bruised. This time there was no red card to wonder about, no goalkeeping error or individual mistake. They were thoroughly beaten by something they have nothing of – genuine world class ability. Youri Tielemans Belgium Jersey . The rookie is rewarding their faith with a stellar first season. MacKinnon had a goal and two assists, Jamie McGinn had two goals and an assist, and Colorado beat the Buffalo Sabres 7-1 on Saturday. http://www.soccerbelgiumteamonline.com/Leander-Dendoncker-UEFA-European-Belgium-Jersey/ . The 7-foot-1 Hawes, who is in the final year of his contract, is averaging 13 points and 8.5 rebounds, both career highs, and shoots 40 per cent from 3-point range. The 25-year-old Hawes is in his seventh NBA season.DENVER - The Denver Broncos much maligned offensive line broke their silence last week. They made an earsplitting statement Sunday.Behind blockers angry over being scapegoated for the teams myriad problems, the Broncos found the balance, ground game and pocket of protection that had eluded them during their recent slide.Capitalizing on this newfound nastiness, Peyton Manning threw four TD passes, including three to Demaryius Thomas, and C.J. Anderson ran for 167 yards and the go-ahead score in Denvers 39-36 win over Miami on Sunday.We all needed to be accountable to our teammates, guard Orlando Franklin said. We felt weve been letting our teammates down and not taking care of business.With perfect balance — 35 runs and 35 throws — the Broncos (8-3) overcame an 11-point fourth-quarter deficit to stay atop the highly competitive AFC West.They took so much (heat) during the week, Anderson said of the O-line, which is building chemistry on the run after wholesale changes three weeks ago. Theyre still human and some of them got feelings. Theyre not going to tell you, but some of them were hurt.They put the hurt on the Dolphins to the tune of 201 yards, but the Broncos first lead didnt come until Andersons 6-yard run up the middle with 5:01 left put Denver ahead 32-28.Then, Ryan Tannehills pass skipped off Jarvis Landrys left hand to T.J. Ward, whose 37-yard return set up Wes Welkers insurance TD catch.The Broncos needed it after Tannehill drove the Dolphins (6-5) on another scoring drive, hitting Landry from a yard out with 1:34 left. Lamar Millers 2-point dive made it a three-point game.The Dolphins onside kick was recovered by — who else? — Anderson, who sealed the game with a 26-yard run that could have been longer had he not slid so the Broncos could get in victory formation.You just have to give it up to the big boys up front. They took so much heat the outside and the media all week, said Anderson, who added 28 yards on four catches.Manning became the third player in NFL history with touchdown passes in 50 consecutive games, joining Drew Brees (54) and Tom Brady (52). He threw for 257 yards on 28-of-35 passing.Emmanuel Sanders led the way with nine catches for 125 yards, and Thomas finished with 10 catches for 87 yards, failing to match Calvin Megatron Johnsoons NFL record of eight straight 100-yard games. Thomas Meunier Belgium Jersey. His consolation was three touchdowns.Nah, Thomas said he asked if he was disappointed. ... I just wanted to win the game. I had a decent game, helped the team. The main thing is we won the game.Tannehill (26 of 36 for 227 yards with three TDs) kept the Dolphins a step ahead much of the afternoon.Miami went ahead 28-17 on Tannehills 5-yard TD toss to Landry after Isaiah Burse fumbled a punt at his own 12.Manning drove the Broncos downfield and found Thomas from 5 yards out, then hit Sanders with the 2-point pass to pull Denver to 28-25 with 14:09 remaining.I thought the best thing our team did was we stayed pretty calm, Manning said. We just had a real calm demeanour the entire game. Everybody did. And that definitely proved to be a key factor late in the game.The only time the Broncos lost their cool came when Brandon McManus clanked a 33-yard field goal try off the right upright after Manning had tripped on third-and-1 from the 7 for his only sack.His teammates could hardly hide their anguish. On the sideline, centre Manny Ramirez ripped his helmet off and hollered as Thomas slammed his helmet to the ground.To come away with no points was really disappointing, Manning said, and once again it could have been that this is not our day type of mentality. We just said, Hey, its obviously going to be a dogfight.Ultimately, it was the Dolphins who would lament the loss, the Broncos balance having thrown them off.Theyre known for throwing the ball all over the place, cornerback Brent Grimes said. They had a plan to run the ball and control the game like that. They did a good job of it.Franklin was happy for the one-week reprieve from the criticism.This is the NFL. One week, youre great and the next week, theyre talking about you like they talked about you last week, he said. It really doesnt matter what everybody else thinks as long as we got the win tonight and as long as our teammates are happy with each and every one of us.NOTES: Broncos CBs Aqib Talib (hamstring) and Kayvon Webster (shoulder) left the game as did MLB Brandon Marshall (concussion). ...
