Welcome to World Sports, I'm Kim Young An exciting final round of golf in Palisades and an update on the Premier League hopeful Cho Won-Hee The only thing standing in his way wasn't another player, wasn't a contract but a work permit. We'll tell you how that played out but first, here's the scoop from California
Left-handed American golfer Phil Mickelson pulled a last minute, one stroke victory in a rollercoaster round Coming into the final round Mickelson had a four stroke lead and even furthered that lead to six, after sinking a thirty four foot eagle putt on the par five first hole Looked like he was the man of the hour until he bogeyed three of the next six holes, duffing chips, hitting trees, missing fairways, you name it He was still in the lead by two until Stricker caught up after a flurry of birdies and tied Mickelson at fifteen under Mickelson lost the lead after another three putt bogey on the twelveth but was able to come back with only three holes remaining in a dramatic finish under pressure South Korean golfing sensation KJ Choi finished thirteen under, tying PGA Tour veteran Fred Couples and Andres Romero of Argentina All eyes will be on this week's match because Tiger Woods is going to be playing at the Accenture Match Play Championship This will be his first competitive appearance since undergoing knee surgery
It's official, Cho Won-Hee joins Wigan Athletic A lot of people had their fingers crossed for Cho over the weekend, and it seems the finger crossing will not go in vain It's been confirmed by his agent Kim Dong-Ho that Cho's work permit issue has become a non and will officially sign with Wigan today Cho will join the ranks of players like Park Ji-Sung, Lee Young-Pyo and Park Ju-Young and play in a field of the best league contenders in the world Meanwhile, present Premier Leaguer Park Ji-Sung did not play in his home match yesterday against Blackburn but is set to battle Inter Milan in their last sixteen Campions League game on the twenty fourth
2008 Beijing Olympics silver medalist Wang Ki-Chun is now currently ranked number one in the seventy three kilogram class This makes Wang the highest ranked judo athlete in the world According to the International Judo Federation Wang currently has three hundred points which is fourty points ahead of Mansur Isaev who is ranked second in the world Wang's win at the Judo Grand Smam in Paris contributed greatly to his number one status Song Dae-Nam in the eighty one kilogram class also holds the number one ranking in the world with three hundred points and Choi Kwang-Hyun is number four in the sixty kilogram class
