GREENSBORO, N.C. -- Si Woo Kim won the Wyndham Championship by five strokes Sunday for his first PGA Tour title.The 21-year-old South Korean player closed with a 3-under 67 to finish at 21-under 259 at Sedgefield Country Club, tying the tournament 72-hole record set eight years ago by Carl Pettersson.Kim matched Pettersson by sinking an uphill 14-foot birdie putt on the final hole.Kim set a tournament record with a 60 in the second round. He earned 500 FedEx Cup points and $1,008,000 in prize money in the regular-season finale.Luke Donald was second at 16 under after a 67. Hideki Matsuyama and Brandt Snedeker were 15 under, also each shooting 67.Kim pretty much locked up the tournament on the par-5 15th.Donald birdied that hole to pull within three strokes of Kim at 16 under, and Rafael Cabrera Bello -- Kims playing partner -- joined him by chipping in for eagle from a greenside bunker on that hole.Kim then pushed a 15-foot eagle putt to the right of the hole, but he tapped in a 4-footer for the birdie that put him back up by four strokes with three holes left.With only six players left on the course and the final pairing headed to the 17th tee, play was suspended for 1 hour, 21 minutes as thunderstorms passed through.That only meant Kim had to wait a little while longer for his victory party.He vaulted to the top of the leaderboard Friday with his record round -- he missed a 50-foot putt on his final hole for 59 -- then stayed there Saturday with a 64 that put him up by four strokes entering the final day.Hed come close to a win once before, losing to Aaron Baddeley in a playoff last month in Alabama in the Barbasol Championship.It looked as if Kim would cruise in this one after he had four birdies on his front nine, including two in a row on Nos. 8-9 to move to 22 under and put him on pace for the record. When he made the turn, nobody was within six strokes of him.But things briefly got tense on the back nine: Kim lost a stroke on the 10th after missing a 4-foot par putt in a driving rain, then gave two more back with bogeys on Nos. 13-14 to slip to 19 under.You had to play a perfect round of golf to catch Kim, Snedeker said. If he did what he has been doing all week, hes really, really tough to catch.The dominant subplot each year at the Wyndham -- the tours regular-season finale -- is the push by the bubble players to crack the top 125 in the FedEx Cup standings and qualify for The Barclays next week at Bethpage Black.While Kim -- who came to Greensboro at No. 43 on the points list -- didnt need any help, others certainly did.Whee Kim, a South Korean player who arrived at No. 125, and No. 124 Matt Jones both slipped out of the playoff field after missing the cut.Kyle Stanley and Shawn Stefani both finished 12 under -- good enough to put them both in The Barclays. Stanley arrived at No. 127 while Stefani started at No. 133.I knew I had to come in here and have a good week, Stefani said. Just been a whirlwind of emotions this week, and Ive really felt good about my game and really love the direction my game is headed. Nike Air Vapormax Flyknit Moc Pas Cher .

This should be celebrated because it will not always be this way. With the amount of money given to players by their clubs these days, it is a wonder that so many of those teams allow the sport to continue to take away many of their assets so they can play for a different team in the middle of their season.

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. ST. LOUIS -- Tyler Holt made his manager look smart Tuesday night.Holt, an inning after entering the game in a triple switch, doubled home the game-winning run as the Cincinnati Reds beat the St. Louis Cardinals 7-4.Ive been searching for something like that for a long time, Holt said. To hit the ball flush like that is pretty encouraging.Holts double off Matt Bowman (1-4) broke a 4-4 tie in the eighth. He then scored from second on an infield hit by Billy Hamilton after Cardinals second baseman Matt Carpenter bobbled a barehanded attempt to get the speedy Hamilton at first.Holt runs the bases better than a lot of people I know, Hamilton said. He hustles . hes going to give you 100 percent every time hes on the field.Reds manager Bryan Price said Holts appearance was more of a necessity than a stroke of genius. Scott Scheblers calf started tightening up after getting hit by a pitch and second baseman Brandon Phillips was dealing with a tight quad making Holt and Ivan De Jesus substitutions a no-brainer.It just played out well, Price said. It was certainly no genius; it was just some good fortune.Adam Duvalls two-run single in the third broke a career high 0-for-18 skid and gave the Reds a 2-1 lead.Joey Votto had two hits, an RBI and a walk and has hit safely in 18 of his last 19 games.Reds lefty Brandon Finnegan struck out five, but walked six in six innings. Michael Lorenzen (2-0) gave up a run in two innings of relief and Raisel Iglesias picked up his first major league save.Weve had a lot of beer showers at the end of a win with guys getting their first hit or their first save or their first win, Price said. And thats the fun part of youth.Yadier Molinas solo home run in the second inning broke a career-high 13-inning scoreless streak for Finnegan. It also extended Molinas streak for reaching base safely to 22 games.Matt Hollidays solo homer in the fifth tied the game 3-3.Had a couple opportunities to get big hits to so it was just one of those nights where they outlasted us and we gave up a little on the back side which is pretty atypiical for us, Cardinals manager Mike Matheny said.ddddddddddddCardinals right-hander Mike Leake failed to record a clean frame in six innings, surrendering a season-high four walks. Still, the three runs allowed were a much better showing than his two previous starts against his former club when he gave up six and seven runs, respectively.DAZZLING DEBUTHighly touted prospect Alex Reyes made his Cardinals debut in the ninth. The right-handers fastball topped out at 101 mph twice in a perfect frame that included a strikeout of Duvall.It was electric, Price said. Theyve got another good one.RUN BILLY RUNHamilton stole three bases and he has nine steals in his past three games. He has more stolen bases (48) than the Reds have wins (46).My main job is getting on base, Hamilton said. I got picked off today and a bunch of guys would have shut it down after that. Thats something I feel comfortable in. Im going to come out next time and get you.PARKING ISSUESThe Cardinals closed their locker room for about 10 minutes to discuss temporary parking arrangements in preparation for the Paul McCartney concert Saturday at Busch Stadium.TRAINERS ROOMReds: RHP Alfredo Simon (right trapezius) and RHP A.J. Morris (strained right shoulder) will continue their rehab assignment Wednesday at Triple-A Louisville. Simon is scheduled to pitch two innings and Morris one.Cardinals: RHP Michael Wacha (strained right shoulder) was placed on the DL and Reyes was promoted from Triple-A Memphis.UP NEXTReds: RHP Anthony DeSclafani (6-0, 2.94 ERA) is coming off a no-decision against Pittsburgh in which he gave up two runs in six innings. Last season, he became the first Reds rookie since Ewell Blackwell in 1946 to face St. Louis in consecutive starts and win them both.Cardinals: LHP Jaime Garcia (8-8, 4.04) is coming off eight shutout innings in a 1-0 win over Atlanta. He drove in the lone run of that game with a single and allowed just three hits.
