SPRINGFIELD, N.J. -- As he walked down the 18th fairway after setting himself up for a potential eagle, Jason Day searched for a scoreboard. When he saw he was three shots behind Jimmy Walker, Day flipped his putter in the air and didnt catch it as it dropped to the ground.He pretty much knew he wasnt catching Walker, either, in the PGA Championship.The defending champion had said, after completing his first 18 holes on a marathon closing Sunday at Baltusrol, that he was excited for the afternoon chase. As darkness closed in, though, not even sinking that eagle putt on the finishing par 5 was enough for the worlds No. 1 player.I didnt know he had taken a three-shot advantage, Day said. I didnt know if he holed the putt before my shot or after my shot because I didnt hear anything, really. All I knew was that I assumed I was only two shots back going into 18.I hit a great 2-iron down there (off the tee) and I just said, `Lets just try and finish off with a bang, try to give him something to think about, and just keep pushing forward. The 2-iron into the green was probably one of the best 2-irons Ive ever hit into a par 5, especially under the circumstances. It was nice to get the eagle, just to try and make Jimmy think about it, but obviously Jimmy just played too good all day. The birdie on 17 was key for him.Day was wearing a big smile as he left the green with a 13-under 287 total and a final-round, 3-under 67. He shared hugs with Jordan Spieth and Ricky Fowler, then lifted his 4-year-old son, Dash, who was crying.Day -- and Dash -- watched on TV as Walker came to the 18th green needing a par on the courses easiest hole. Walker matched Days 67 with his first bogey-free round in a major despite an off-target second shot into 18.Then the Australian made his way to greenside to congratulate Walker after the Americans 3-footer fell for the victory.Great stuff, mate, he told Walker.Lets start off, hes a tremendous bloke. Me and him have been, like, (RV) bus partners for a while now. We text each other all the time about him getting a new bus, and Im showing him mine. Were just talking about buses all the time. Were always parked right next to each other, always hanging out. All the major championships, we see each other all the time.So you know, obviously hes a top bloke.Day fell short mainly because he bogeyed two of his first three holes in the final round after beginning it one shot behind Walker, who won his first major -- just as Day did a year ago in the event at Whistling Straits. The driver failed him on both the opening hole and on No. 3 as he heeled the drive on No. 1 and toed it on No. 3.They are two blemishes, but stuff like that can kind of relax you sometimes, and for me it did, said Day, who made three birdies and the final eagle without any more bogeys. I kind of got ... underway with the rest of my game and played pretty solid golf from there.Playing 36 holes to finish off a major is no easy task, and Day was proud of back-to-back 67s. Weather issues on Saturday played havoc with the schedule, and the two-man groups from the third round remained together for the fourth regardless of scores.That could have taken away some drama, and Day said he would have enjoyed being in the final pairing with Walker. But he also recognized it might not have made a difference.One guy this week was better than me., Day said.But it would have been nice to be able to play in the last group with him, just to be able to go back and forth with him, maybe put a little bit more pressure on, because usually that becomes into kind of a match-play format. More mistakes or crucial moments can happen in situations like that.So it would have been nice, but we all understand we were trying to get the championship in.Marcus Allen Chiefs Jersey .

Its the first visit by an English club to Russia since clashes between the two countries fans marred the European Championship, though a repeat of that mass violence appears unlikely.Russian and English fans clashed repeatedly in Marseille before and after their Euro 2016 group stage game in June. Groups of Russian fans arrived well prepared for trouble, equipped with mouth guards and martial arts gloves, and French police struggled to cope, deploying tear gas and water cannon.Russian fan leaders who were in Marseille for the June violence have been warned against a repeat performance, and Tottenham has urged its fans to keep a low profile in the Group E match.All the Russian fans who were in France, all the supporters, were summoned to police departments and hour-long conversations were had with them. No one wants to take revenge on anyone for anything, Alexander Shprygin, head of the All-Russian Fans Union, told The Associated Press. Everyone wants to live a quiet life and everyone forgot about the English a while ago.Two board members from Shprygins group, which has been accused of far-right links, are currently serving prison sentences in France related to the Marseille violence. However, he said when English fans arrive in Moscow their safety will be at a much higher level than in Marseille this summer, obviously as long as they dont provoke the citizens.While CSKA fans were not prominent in the Marseille violence, with supporters of others Moscow clubs such as Spartak and Lokomotiv playing a central role, CSKA has been repeatedly punished by UEFA in recent years for fan racism and occasional violence at games. When Manchester City visited in 2014 in the Champions League, UEFA ordered the game to be played in an empty stadium.Russian authorities swamp many football games with hundreds, even thousands of police as a matter of course, including for relatively minor league fixtures.ddddddddddddOnly around 300 Tottenham supporters are expected to travel, according to Ivan Ulanov, CSKAs head of fan outreach. In Marseille, English fans made a show of occupying the citys Old Port area, which antagonized Russian fans and French locals, but Spurs fans have been told to hide their allegiance in the Russian capital.For additional personal security, it is suggested that you do not show your football colors until you are inside the stadium, Tottenham said in travel advice to fans. Whilst flags and banners are welcome at the stadium, we recommend that they are not openly shown in the city center.We havent seen much to suggest that what happened over the summer has been a big influence in changing peoples minds about whether or not to travel, said Martin Cloake, co-chair of the Tottenham Hotspur Supporters Trust. Instead, the Russian visa procedure, which can cost around 150 pounds ($195) and requires biometric testing, is a bigger deterrent. Its a very expensive trip anyway, and a long journey, added Cloake.If there is trouble at Tuesdays game in Moscow, it wouldnt be the first time Spurs fans have experienced crowd violence in Russia.On Tottenhams last visit in 2013 to play Anzhi Makhachkala in the Europa League, the game was played in the town of Ramenskoye near Moscow because of safety concerns related to an Islamist insurgency in Anzhis home region.The arrival of thousands of Anzhi fans angered Ramenskoye locals. The two groups clashed inside the stadium during the game before the locals charged the Anzhi supporters, prompting a stampede for the exits, all as the small group of travelling Spurs fans looked on. Police eventually restored order and the game finished peacefully, with a 2-0 win for Tottenham. ' ' '
