Sidney Crosby is the newest member of the NHL’s 1,000-
point club. The Pittsburgh star became the 86th player in
league history to reach 1,000 career points when he assisted
on Chris Kunitz’s goal 6:28 into the first.
The sellout crowd at PPG paints arena erupted when
Crosby outworked Winnipeg’s Blake wheeler to get to a
loose puck in the left circle then slid it over to Kunitz in the
slot.
Crosby later provided a match winning exclamation mark,
poking the puck over the goal line with 21 seconds left in
overtime to give the penguins a 4-5 victory.
“I think were a lot of question marks about the future and
how his career would go from there”. When he was
diagnosed with another concussion last October, he pleaded
patience rather than anxiousness.
San Jose captain Joe Thornton said. “Concussions, you
know, yeah, you don’t know if you’re going to come back
or not.
Actually, the training will be in seriously to more could be
good and a champion and it can be proud of their respective
countries and can also add to his talent on their own.

Indonesian golfer George Gandranata’s personal target to

further spread his wings and secure another achievement,
for the time being, must be put on hold as he failed to get
out of the second round at the recently concluded maybank
Golf Championship.
Through a written interview, George talked with the Jakarta
post’s Dicky Christanto on his current goals and future
ambitions as a professional golfer, bellow are the excerpts
from the interview.
Question : what have you learned from the Maybank
Championship tournament?
Answer : it’s a European Tour event and you need to have
your game sharp.
How can we create enthusiasm in the younger
generation to like this sport?
To [create] enthusiasm in golf, on has to start from the
junior glofers.
In my Opion, the younger generation still live the talents of
which is owned by each, in order to in a example by the
little children who others, and could be the successor to the
nation.

Tessa Worley won her second gold medal at the

alpine skiing world championship on Thursday as she
took the woman’s giant slalom by Strom, having
been part of the French squad that won Thuesday’s
team event.
“the pressure was pretty high before the second run
but I managed to go to the end and win it,” a
delighted Worley told the race organizers.
It was a triumphant return to the pinnacle for 2013
giant slalom world champion Worley, who missed
the 2014 Olympics with a serious knee injury which
also cut short her World Cup season the same year.
Goggia, who edged compatriot Federica Brignone to
the bronze medal.
Defending champions Ana Veith finished a
disappointing 22nd and Michaela KirchgaSser, who
won the bronze medal in the Combiried event, came
in 12th on a tough day for the Austrians.
In my opinion, not only women who received a
medal gold, but men also have to try to be a
champion and a medal gold.

Big-hitting Dustin Johnson made a strong start in his bid to

claim the world number one ranking this week by firing a
Five under 66 that left him two shots off leader Sam
Saunders on the opening day of the weather interrupted
Genesis Open.
Reigning US Open champion Johnson, who can claim the
top ranking with a win should incumbent Jason Day tie for
third or worse.
“I just want to try and give myself the position to win any
tournament out on tour,” said Saunders, whose famed
grandfather won the Los Angeles Open three times.
“I’m still looking for my first win. If it could come at a
place like this it would be incredibly special,” the 29 year
old added.
A regular cut will take place on Friday. Then the full field
will be whittled down to 24 players, who will compete in
pairs in six-hole playoffs until only one remains.
In my opinion, the player must needs the spirit of a lot, and
can beat the enemy and can win the game.
The goals continued to flow for Manchester United’s
Zlatan Ibrahimovic and AS Roma’s Edin Dzeko as
they bagged hat tricks to help their teams take
commanding leads in the first legs of their Europa
League last 32 ties on Thursday.
Tottenham hotspur’s Europa league campaign,
however, got off to a frustrating start as they were
beaten 1-0 at mid-table Belgian outfit Gent, while
Olympique Lyonnais beat AZ Alkmaar 4-1 away and
Fiorentina edged Borussia moenchengladbach 1-0.
Spurs had arrived looking to restore pride in north
London football after Arsenal were thrashed 5-1 by
Bayern Munich in in the Champions League on
Wednesday but were stifled in a poor performance
and were lucky to escape with a one-goal deficit.
The serie A side were resilient at the back however
and grabbed the only goal when Federico
bernardeschi fired home a fine free kick in the dying
seconds of the first half.
In my opinion, the skill players more attention so as
not lose by opposing players.
