| Blue Monster has golfers seeing red Friday, Mar 07, 2014 05:49 PM PST By Steve Keating DORAL, Florida (Reuters) - The Blue Monster had some players seeing red after a tough day at the WGC-Cadillac Championship on Friday left only four golfers below par at the midway point of the $9 million event. Prior to the opening round golfers had sung the praises of the redesigned course but many were singing a different tune after whipping winds allowed the Blue Monster to show its true colors. Business magnate Donald Trump, who has poured $250 million into renovating the Trump National Doral Resort, hailed architect Gil Hanse's creation as big, bold and fair. Few have disputed Trump's 'big' and 'bold' assessment of his property but some like Briton Luke Donald were left questioning the fairness of the layout. Full Story | Top |
| Four share midway lead as Blue Monster shows teeth Friday, Mar 07, 2014 04:41 PM PST  By Steve Keating DORAL, Florida (Reuters) - American Hunter Mahan eagled his penultimate hole to grab a share of the halfway lead at the WGC-Cadillac Championship on Friday as the Blue Monster showed its true colors, with more than 100 golf balls ending up in the water. On a grueling day that some players described as a survival test, Mahan eagled the par five eighth in fading light for a second round of two-over 74 that left him tied for the lead with his compatriots Dustin Johnson (74), Patrick Reed (75) and Matt Kuchar (74) at one-under par. Northern Irishmen Rory McIlroy (74) and Graeme McDowell (71), Italian Francesco Molinari (75) and Welshman Jamie Donaldson, who posted the low round of the day with a two-under 70, were all lurking one shot further back.

| Mexico schedule World Cup warm-up versus Israel at Azteca Friday, Mar 07, 2014 04:27 PM PST Mexico will play Israel in a World Cup warm-up at the Azteca Stadium on May 28 as a farewell for the home fans before heading to the finals in Brazil, the Mexican Football Federation (FMF) said on Friday. Mexico coach Miguel Herrera will by then have named his 23-man squad and they will head to the tournament after friendlies in the United States against fellow World Cup qualifiers Ecuador on May 31, Bosnia on June 3 and Portugal three days later. "Given that the majority of the world's leagues finish their activities on May 26 it was not possible to face a national team qualified for Brazil so we decided the Israeli team was the best option," the FMF said in a statement.
