RIDGEDALE, Mo. -- Jeff Sluman and Fred Funk teamed to win the Champions Tours Legends of Golf on Sunday, and Jim Colbert and Jim Thorpe topped the Legends Division for players 65 and older. Sluman and Funk finished with a 6-under 48 at rainy Top of the Rock, the first par-3 course used in a PGA Tour-sanctioned event, to beat Jay Haas and Peter Jacobsen by a stroke. Sluman holed a 6-foot par putt for the victory on the final hole. "For some reason Ive always done well in these team-type events," Sluman said. "I dont know what it is." The winners finished at 20-under 159. They opened with an 11-under 61 in better-ball play on the regulation Buffalo Ridge course and had a 50 on Saturday on the par-3 layout. Sluman also won last year, teaming with Brad Faxon in Savannah, Georgia. "Maybe Ive got a good eye for partners," Sluman said. Funk was quick to return the complement. "Hes the common denominator," Funk said. Sluman won for the sixth time on the Champions Tour, and Funk for the ninth. Haas and Jacobsen, the second-round leaders, shot 50. Haas missed an 8-foot birdie putt on the 17th hole of the day. "Im disappointed because I hit a beautiful iron in there and it was as easy a putt as you can get, straight up the hill, and I just pulled it a little bit," Haas said. "Were mixed emotions right now. Were very happy to have finished second, but we had an opportunity. You just dont get that many, so its nice to take advantage of them when you do. Sluman and Funk had a 1-under 26 in the opening alternate-shot nine and closed with a 5-under 22 in the best-ball nine. "It seemed like they kept hitting it to three feet. The first five or six holes they hit it to three feet and made birdie," Jacobsen said. "Youre not going to get more clutch than those two guys." Craig Stadler and Kirk Triplett closed with a 52 to finish third at 14 under, the Kentucky duo of Russ Cochran and Kenny Perry was 13 under after a 49. In the nine-hole Legends finale, Colbert and Thorpe had a 4-under 23 in better-ball play for a three-stroke victory over Bruce Fleisher and Larry Nelson. Colbert and Thorpe finished at 11 under for 45 holes. Colbert won the then-Demaret Division for players 70 and older, teaming with Bob Murphy. "I couldnt ask for a better partner because I know hes a fighter," Thorpe said. "This guys got so much fire, so much fight in him." Jack Nicklaus and Gary Player were fifth at 5 under. "I think Gary played reasonably well. I didnt," Nicklaus said. "I got worn out yesterday and I didnt play very well and I played very poorly today. I dont think we played particularly well in total. We felt like we could both play better than that, but we just didnt." Sluman and Funk each earned $230,000, and Colbert and Thorpe got $60,000 each. "The tournament was a lot of fun," Funk said. "It was just a real treat. It turned out to be really fun and a real treat to play this par 3. And it is a little nerve-wracking, like yesterday, with the alternate shot because it just seems to put more pressure on you." Niles Paul Jersey .

Cam Robinson Jersey .com) - American Madison Keys grabbed a first- round victory on Sunday in a rainy start to the Apia International Sydney tournament.YOSEMITE NATIONAL PARK, Calif. - Day after day, the two Americans who completed what had been considered the worlds most difficult rock climb bloodied their fingertips, endured bruising falls and balanced their bodies on handholds as small as coins.But while living for more than two weeks on a sheer granite wall, they still enjoyed a few comforts sent up from the Yosemite Valley below: coffee, Indian food, chocolate and an occasional nip of whisky.Now they hope their feat inspires others to follow their own passions.Tommy Caldwell and Kevin Jorgeson became the first to free-climb the Dawn Wall on the famous El Capitan rock formation in Yosemite National Park. Unlike climbers who need more elaborate equipment, the pair relied entirely on their hands and feet and physical strength, using ropes and harnesses only for safety in case of a fall.Speaking Thursday to reporters, both men said they had been touched by the number of people who drew inspiration from their journey up a half-mile of pale stone.Jorgeson said the climb should illustrate the virtues of teamwork and teach people not to give up on their dreams.In an interview with The Associated Press, he said the experience recalibrates your perception of what you can do and whats possible. Now that weve done this, who knows what comes. I have a whole new bar for whats possible and what Im capable of personally.The trek began Dec. 27. In the 19 days that followed, the two lived on the wall itself, eating and sleeping in tents fastened to the rock thousands of feet above the ground and battling painful cuts to their fingers.They also took punishment whenever their grip slipped, pitching them into swinging falls that left them bouncing off the rock face. The tumbles, which they called taking a whipper, ended with startling jolts from their safety ropes.Caldwell described how support climbers provided them with fresh fruit and vegetables every five days. They also had Indian food, burritos and other pretty normal stuff, including coffee. For treats, the two enjoyed chocolate and Woodford Reserve whisky.We like to say you cant put a price on morale, Caldwell told the AP, speaking in a whisper because he had lost his voice from shouting so much during the climb.There wasnt much downtime, Caldwell said, but in spare moments he read from the autobiography of legendary climber Barry Blanchard.Asked why thee achievement resonated with so many people, Jorgeson said the Dawn Wall personifies dreaming big and making it happen.dddddddddddd Its just a super-concrete example and an iconic, beautiful place with amazing images and a great story of perseverance and teamwork and making it.Caldwell, 36, of Estes Park, Colorado, and Jorgeson, 30, of Santa Rosa, California, trained for years to get ready.Ken Yager, president of the Yosemite Climbing Association, noted past milestones on El Capitan, starting with the first people to make the climb in 1958, followed decades later by the first one-day ascent and the duo who set a speed record in 2012 at 2 hours, 23 minutes. The latest accomplishment adds to that history, Yager said.Caldwell and Jorgeson proved that theres still a golden age in Yosemites climbing, Yager said.Jorgeson said Caldwell first envisioned the climb in 2007. After seeing a short film about his ambition to free climb the Dawn Wall, Jorgeson called to ask Caldwell if he needed a partner.They started their plans in 2009.I never thought rock climbing could garner so much attention from the world, Jorgeson told reporters. Its kind of crazy and a little uncomfortable.Mike Gauthier, chief of staff for Yosemite National Park, said the climb celebrated human achievement.Adventure can still be found on public lands and in the national parks today in 2015, he said. Tommy and Kevin, thank you for showing us that.There are about 100 routes up the rock known among climbers as El Cap. Even the Dawn Wall had been scaled. Warren Harding and Dean Caldwell (no relation to Tommy) made it up in 1970, using climbing ropes and countless rivets over 27 days.No one, however, had ever made it to the summit in one continuous free-climb — until now.The pioneering ascent comes after failed attempts by both men. They only got about a third of the way up in 2010 when a storm turned them back. A year later, Jorgeson fell and broke an ankle in another attempt.This time, as the world watched and followed on Facebook and Twitter, Jorgeson got stalled in a lower section that took 11 attempts over seven days.I didnt want to accept any other outcome but getting up that route, Jorgeson said on Good Morning America. I tried to push all the negative thoughts of not being able to do it out and picture getting across that traverse, and thats eventually what happened.
