Ferrer won in Vienna. With Federer out and Ferrer showing his age, its reasonable to expect two new champions to emerge. Wawrink Antworten

Captain Leana de Bruin led from the front as the Magic battled their way to a 56-55 trans-Tasman netball league win over the Adelaide Thunderbirds in Hamilton on Sunday.The 104-Test Silver Fern had proven a game-long menace in the Thunderbirds shooting circle, picking up a series of deflections and intercepts in tandem with ever-improving goal keeper Kristiana Manua.But she saved her best until last, snaffling the vital turnover with just 30 seconds left on the clock to send the Magic into next weeks New Zealand conference playoffs on a high note.It was a win which appeared unlikely at the end of the first quarter at Claudelands Arena, as the visitors powered out to a 17-9 lead as the Magic midcourt struggled to find their timing in the attack third.At the other end of the court for Adelaide, Kristina Brice (37 from 42) and Erin Bell (18/22) matched accuracy with slick circle work in missing only two of their 19 shots on goal.Magic coach Julie Fitzgerald pushed Jo Harten (40/44) back to goal shoot at the first break, replacing Paula Griffin (3/3) with Ellen Halpenny at goal attack, and the home team never looked back.With Halpenny (13/17) and Harten converting the turnover ball generated by a more combative midcourt defence, the Magic took the second quarter 17-10 to cut back Adelaides lead to 27-26.The Thunderbirds bossed the early stages of the third quarter to extend their lead out to five, but the Magic finished the spell with a roar in sinking four goals on end to hit the front 43-41 with 15 minutes remaining.The two teams matched each other goal for goal right until de Bruin snared the key intercept with just 30 seconds remaining. Cheap Nike Air Jordan 11 Orange . On Saturday night, the normally free throw-challenged centre did just that. Howard scored 18 of his 25 points in the fourth quarter, including 13 of 19 free throws in a 2 1/2-minute stretch, and the Houston Rockets beat the Denver Nuggets 122-111. Cheap Air Jordan 11 China . -- Whether Jeremy Hill deserves a prominent role in LSUs offence this early in the season is a matter for debate. http://www.cheapjordan11freeshipping.com/cheap-nike-air-jordan-11-all-gold/ . -- Aaron Murray threw for 408 yards and three touchdowns, ran for another score, and led No. Wholesale Jordan Retro 11 . Reassurance came from Paul Tesori, his caddie and close friend whose newborn son is in intensive care in a Florida hospital. "Paul sent me a text this morning, just told me he loved me and wanted to go out and fight as hard as I would any other day," Simpson said Sunday after doing just that. Cheap Nike Air Jordan 11 Yellow .Y. -- Buffalo Bills coach Doug Marrone has drawn on his Syracuse connections once again by hiring Rob Moore to take over as receivers coach. Its inevitable. The day after the US Open ends, the clarity and narratives that propelled tennis through most of the summer vanish.It doesnt help that the tours ramble off to relatively new outposts in Asia and Russia before wending their way back, at least in the case of the ATP, to a more traditional finale in Europe and London. Another stumbling block to clarity: Both tour calendars are crowded with tournaments, many competing directly with each other.Dont be fooled. Lets make some sense of what the tours have in store for us in the coming weeks.ATPWhats at stake?Top-ranked Novak Djokovic has a massive lead of nearly 5,000 ranking points over No. 2 Andy Murray. Thats the equivalent of a Grand Slam win and victories in three Masters 1000 events. Murrays lead over No. 3 Stan Wawrinka is also significant -- more than 3,000 points. With Roger Federer out for the year and Rafael Nadal at a distant No. 4 but still a shadow of his former combative self, there will be no musical chairs at the top level. From Nadal on down, though, almost everyone is either vulnerable or facing a significant opportunity.That opportunity would culminate with the year-end championships in London. The top eight players in the world qualify, and with Federer out, it opens the door for someone else. Right now Nadal sits in the eighth position in the race (not to be confused with the rankings). Tomas Berdych and Marin Cilic are close behind; a strong finish could propel them into the seasons final event.Notable tournamentsThere are six ATP 250 events before the end of the year, starting with those now underway in France and Russia, respectively: Metz (defending champion Jo-Wilfried Tsonga); St. Petersburg (Milos Raonic); Chengdu, China (new event, replacing Kuala Lumpur, won in 2015 by David Ferrer); Shenzhen, China, (Berdych); Stockholm, (Berdych); Antwerp, Belgium, (new event, replacing Valencia, Spain, won in 2015 by Joao Sousa); and the Kremling Cup in Moscow (Cilic).The four more prestigious ATP 500 events are played over just two double-up weeks. Beijing (China Open) and Tokyo (Japan Open) begin the first week in October. Djokovic is the defending champ in Beijing; Wawrinka won Tokyo in 2015. Murray is entered in Beijing, along with Nadal and Raonic. Wawrinka will be challenged by Kei Nishikori, Cilic, Gael Monfils and others in Japan.The other double-up 500 week is the last one in October, with Basel (Swiss Indoors) and Vienna (Austria) on the schedule. Federer is the defending champ in Basel, while Ferrer won in Vienna. With Federer out and Ferrer showing his age, its reasonable to expect two new champions to emerge. Wawrinka, Nadal and Raonic headline Basel, while Murray and Dominic Thiem lead the parade in Vienna.The two ATP 1000 events of the fall are Shanghai, during the second week of October, and Paris, which takes place the first week of November. They are mandatory for all players who qualify for entry by ranking. Djokovic won both last year. He also won the ATP World Tour Finals, which follows immediately.Players to watchRaonic, ranked No. 6 but nipping at the heels of No. 5 Nishikori as well as Nadal could make some moves in the rankings. Given Wawrinkas on-again, off-again nature, Raonic might even end up challenging the Stanimal for the No. 3 spot. Its all hard courts from here on in -- many of which will be played indoors. That suits Raonic just fine given the Wimbledon runner-up has a mmassive serve, a booming forehand and a growing appetite for ending points swiftly.ddddddddddddNishikori is a massive star in Asia, so theres always extra pressure on him during the fall. He also has been injury prone after a long year, and that could take its toll, especially in the ATP World Tour Finals, where only the best of the best play.WTAWhats at stake?Angelique Kerber snatched the No. 1 ranking from Serena Williams at the US Open; Williams has an excellent chance to get it back in time to finish the year on top. She did not play a single tournaments after the 2015 US Open, and Williams has no rankings points to lose the rest of the year. She can only add to her current total of 7,050. Kerber, who has 8,730 points, earned about 1,200 last fall. Right now, were waiting to see if Williams decides to play any fall ball this season.Like the ATP, the WTA will also host a year-end championships. It will take place the last week of October, in Singapore. Carla Suarez Navarraro holds the slimmest of leads (two points) over Madison Keys for the eighth and final spot, with Johanna Konta and Svetlana Kuznetsova also making a push.The tournamentsThe seven WTA International Series events that remain on the calendar award the winner with 280 points. They are, starting with the ongoing events in Seoul, South Korea, and Guangzhou, China (defending champions, respectively: Irina-Camelia Begu and Jelena Jankovic); Tashkent, Uzbekistan, (Nao Hibino); Tianjin, China (Agnieszka Radwanska); Hong Kong (Jankovic); Linz, Austria, (Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova); and Luxembourg (Misaki Doi).There are two Premier 12 level tournaments (470 points to the winner) events as well. The Toray Pan Pacific Open, in Tokyo, is going on this week. (Radwanska won it last year.) During the fourth week in October, its the Kremlin Cup, in Moscow (Kuznetsova).The two most important tournaments of the fall are back-to-back events starting next week in Wuhan, China. That one is the lone Premier 5, with the winner earning 900 points. (Venus Williams is your defending champ). It is immediately followed by the only Premier Mandatory, Beijings China Open. The winner there will rake in 1,000 ranking points, as Garbine Muguruza did last year. These will be particularly important battlegrounds this year.Finally, its the season-ending championships, where Radwanska, a surprise winner, prevailed a year ago.Players to watchTheres no question, Kerber has established herself as the first true rival Serena Williams has ever really faced since she hit her latest champions stride in 2012. Even combative Victoria Azarenka never got the best of Williams when it most counted, although the Belarusian came close a few times. Williams and Kerber could meet for the first time since they changed places in the rankings next week in Wuhan, and both could play Beijing as well. The events of the next few weeks could also tell a lot about 2017.Last year, Muguruza swooned after she reached the Wimbledon final, then crafted an impressive autumn surge. Can she do it again under similar circumstances, after having won the French Open?There are no Grand Slam titles at stake, but there are enough compelling storylines through November that could make for fun, captivating competition until the Aussie Open begins -- in 114 days.
