LAS VEGAS -- One long putt got Lucas Glover going Saturday and put him in position for his first PGA Tour victory in five years.Glover was even par for his round when he holed a 45-foot birdie putt on No. 8, followed with a 9-foot eagle putt on the next hole and made a pair of birdies and a key par putt in the closing holes for a 6-under 65 in the Shriners Hospitals for Children Open.Glover had a one-shot lead over Brooks Koepka (70) and Rod Pampling (71).That eighth hole was kind of the catapult, Glover said. I made that long one, and two great shots into 9 and turned in 3 under and kept it going.Playing in the final group, Koepka and Pampling were slowed by mistakes and wound up letting a dozen or so players back into the mix. Twenty players were separated by four shots going into the final round at the TPC Summerlin.Weve got a shootout ahead of us tomorrow, said Glover, who was at 15-under 198. I like where I stand, but youre going to have to play good tomorrow.Glover pulled ahead when he got up-and-down on the short par-4 15th, two-putted from birdie from about 50 feet on the 16th hole and then made a 5-foot par putt on the par-3 17th. The short putts are what has hurt Glover the most during the five years since the former U.S. Open champion last won at Quail Hollow.He recently switched to a claw grip to get his shoulders more involved.Ive really been working hard, and its starting to pay off, Glover said. Eighteen holes tomorrow, and see how many we can make because Im going to have make some.Russell Henley made eight birdies -- only one of them from under 10 feet -- for a 63, and Geoff Ogilvy ran off four straight birdies late in his round for a 65. They were two shots behind. The group at 12-under 201 included Las Vegas resident Scott Piercy, Harris English and Pat Perez, who missed eight months this year with shoulder surgery. Another Las Vegas resident, Ryan Moore, was in the large group at 11 under.Koepka had three bogeys on his opening six holes to fall behind, and he caught up by using his power to make birdie on the par 5s on the back nine and with a 3-wood that he hit to 20 feet for a two-putt birdie on the 15th. He was tied for the lead until pulling his tee shot into the water on the 17th and making bogey, and then he ended his wild round with a sand wedge that spun back to tap-in range on the 18th.For as bad as we played today, I was kind of happy to be one off the lead, Koepka said. Just kind of struggled with everything. I feel like speed was a bit off, putting never really got comfortable. ... Not my best performance, but I guess one off the lead isnt too bad for how bad we played.The final group of Pampling, Koepka and Chris Kirk (75) combined to shoot 3-over par.We struggled out there, and at least it was good see Brooks make some birdies at the end, Pampling said. They were out there. It was just a few breaks here and there werent quite what I had been getting. Hopefully, itll turn around tomorrow and well actually post a proper number again.Pampling and Glover both had to go back to the Web.com Tour Finals two seasons ago to regain their full tour cards. While it has been since 2011 that Glover last won, Pampling hasnt won since the 2008 Australian Masters, and his last PGA Tour victory was 10 years ago at Bay Hill.Im not going to lie, there was a little bit of tension early on, Pampling said. They guys who are a long way back go low because theyre not protecting a little bit. Obviously, I dont think we can protect tomorrow, but I feel good. Just go out there and let it go and just hope juices are good. Its nice to have them. Tom Brady Jersey Nike .

Mixed martial arts fighters often excel in a particular discipline or possess a certain attribute that makes them stand out in the Octagon. But what if those individual areas of excellence and superior attributes could all be compiled to make up the?perfect fighter?In an attempt to bring that idea of the best all-round fighter to life, a panel of in-house MMA experts voted on fighters who best represent 10 featured traits, collectively crafting their perfect version. Only current male fighters were considered, as a female version will follow soon.Editorial note:?Jon Jones was nominated in six of the 10 categories -- more than any other fighter. And yet, while theres no doubt Jones is among the most athletic and well-rounded fighters of his generation, he didnt finish better than second place in the voting of any one category.Artwork done by Todd Detwiler, special to ESPN. Descriptions written by Brett Okamoto.Brain: Dominick CruzWhether its behind the desk as an analyst or inside the UFC Octagon, Cruz has proven time and again that he has the sharpest mind in the game. His style of fighting is uniquely his own, although it borrows from several of his historical favorites -- including the late, great Muhammad Ali.Runner-up: Conor McGregorChin: Roy NelsonNelsons chin (and overall toughness) defies science. Nelson set a statistical record in June 2013 by absorbing 106 significant strikes in his UFC 161 bout with Stipe Miocic -- without being knocked out. Keep in mind one significant strike from Miocic is usually enough to drop another man (or any other living creature). Nelson took 106.Runner-up: Nate DiazHeart: Frankie EdgarEdgars survival of horrific opening rounds in back-to-back title fights against Gray Maynard in 2011 will go down in infamy -- as should his ability to fight through a nasty Benson Henderson upkick in 2012. When push comes to shove, Edgar is simply a machine. He has never been finished in an 11-year career and seemingly never taken a round off.Runner-up: Jon JonesLeft hand: Conor McGregorNo one is a bigger fan of McGregors left hand than McGregor himself. He is quite proud of it -- for good reason. He has finished 85 percent of his wins by knockout, and the left hand has played a starring role in the majority of those. Thats the same left hand, of coursse, that knocked out the legendary Jose Aldo?in just 13 seconds in 2015.ddddddddddddRunner-up: Robbie LawlerRight hand: Anthony JohnsonFrankly, there is nothing in the sport right now quite like the knockout power of Anthony Kewoa Johnson. He is consistently napping durable, 205-pound men like Alexander Gustafsson and Glover Teixeira. He owns the scariest right hand there is, especially following the retirement of Dan Hendersons patented H-Bomb.Runner-up: Stipe MiocicWrestling: Daniel CormierCormiers amateur wrestling resume is quite lengthy, and it has translated well to the cage. Weve seen him pick up larger men -- like the 250-pound Josh Barnett -- and somersault them through the air. It has also played an obvious role in him winning (and defending) the UFC light heavyweight championship.Runner-up: Jon JonesKicks: Jose AldoPicture an axe ... turning lumber into kindling. Aldos knockout reel is impressive, but it has always been his vicious, damage-inducing leg kicks that have made audiences wince most.?Runner-up: Luke RockholdKnees: Alistair OvereemPrevious opponents have described Overeems knees in the way one might describe a once-in-a-lifetime experience. The Dutch kickboxer has had more than 50 professional fights, and those knees have come into play in just about every single one.Runner-up: Anderson SilvaSpeed: Demetrious JohnsonIt almost feels criminal to acknowledge Johnsons speed and nothing else. Every aspect of the flyweight champions game is impressive, but it should be noted this nod to Johnsons speed applies to more than the traditional definition. The speed in his transitions, reaction times and combinations is all impressive.Runners-up: Dominick Cruz and John DodsonSubmission: Demian MaiaEver since Maia broke into the UFC in 2007 with three consecutive bonus-winning submissions, he has been viewed as one of the most dangerous grapplers in the sport. Nothing in the nine years since has changed that narrative, and in fact, Maia has only gotten better at wrestling opponents to the floor to use his distinguished grappling skill. At times, its almost as if hes working with more limbs than his opposition.Runner-up: Fabricio Werdum ' ' '
