导出博客文章Rory McIlroy says all his hard work off the course is now starting to pay off on 
the course after he opened up a three-shot lead following the third round of the 
WGC-Cadillac Championship. The Northern Irishman, using his new crosshanded 
putting method, carded a flawless four-under 68 to move to 12-under 204 ahead of 
Sundays final round.However, he will need to maintain his solid form at Doral as 
he has some big names on his tail with Dustin Johnson and Adam Scott leading the 
chasing pack on nine under and Phil Mickelson, Bubba Watson and Danny Willett 
two shots further back. Im pretty sure thats my first bogey-free round of the 
year. To do it in a round like this is very pleasing, said McIlroy after signing 
his card on Saturday. Rory McIlroy runs us through his third round at the 
WGC-Cadillac Championship Ive been saying all week that Ive been making the 
birdies and Ive been hitting the good shots. Ive just been making too many 
mistakes. So to play the last 36 holes on a golf course like this with just one 
bogey on the card is really what I wanted to achieve this week. I feel really 
good about my game.My ball-striking, my driving, that really hasnt been an issue 
this year. Thats been where I wanted it to be. But my scrambling and my putting 
have needed work. Highlights from Saturdays third round at Doral, with McIlroy 
taking a three-shot lead over Dustin Johnson I feel like the practice that Ive 
put in over the last few weeks is really starting to pay off. Just look at some 
of the saves I had out there today and some of the big par putts - those were 
the things that were missing over the past three or four tournaments.And to be 
able to correct that and go out and play in a final group on a Saturday in a 
golf tournament like this on a golf course like this, and play bogey-free, it 
gives me a lot of confidence going forward. McIlroy strides towards the 18th 
green at Doral Theres not many positives from a missed cut [at the Honda 
Classic] but I made nine birdies over the first two days on a tough golf course 
in tough conditions. I knew the good stuff was in there. It was just about 
trying to eradicate the bad stuff, the loose shots, the mental errors, the 
mistakes.I didnt feel like there was much of a disappointment after last week. 
To be honest, to miss a cut and be able to sleep in your own bed, its not too 
bad. Gave me a couple extra days to practice, and maybe if I didnt have those 
couple of extra days, I wouldnt have found something in my game that I really 
liked to go forward with. Theres always a silver lining.Watch the final round of

Miikka Kiprusoff had just announced his retirement after a decade-long run in 
Calgary and it would be up to Berra and Ramo to fill the void. It has been a 
pretty good week for French horseback riders. In Rio de Janeiro, Astier Nicolas, 
Thibaut Vallette, Mathieu Lemoine, and Karim Florent Laghouag collected Olympic 
gold medals in the team competition of three-day eventing, while Nicolas added a 
silver medal in the individual event category.Meanwhile, in the Chicago suburb 
of Arlington Heights, a mini-Olympics of sorts will convene on Saturday at 
Arlington Park, where the 34th running of the Arlington Million tops a juicy 
10-race program. French is very much on the menu.Hot-handed Florent Geroux (from 
Argentan, in Normandy), Flavien Prat (from Melun, 70 miles east of Paris), and 
veteran Brice Blanc (from Lyon) each have mounts in the $700,000 Beverly D. at 
1-3/16 miles on turf. Advantage Geroux in this one aboard Sea Calisi for Chad 
Brown and Martin Schwartz, although Pretty Girl and Blanc deserve more than a 
glance, trained as she is by Mikel Delzangles, who knows how to take his game on 
the road.Prat would be overlooked in the Beverly D. if it wasnt for the outfit 
hell be wearing atop the French filly Marypop, trained by Mike Stidham. She is 
owned by Richard Duchossois, the Arlington Park chairman who first presented the 
Arlington Million in 1981 and then added the Beverly D. seven years later to 
honor the memory of his wife. Any jock who wins this race for the boss gets the 
keys to a couple of cities.Geroux, 30, and Prat, 24, have developed a friendly 
rivalry that transcends the time zones. They communicate often, trash-texting in 
French, and keep close track of how the other guy is doing. This season, the 
answer is theyre doing just fine.Prat leads the Del Mar standings with 20 wins 
through Wednesdays card. His mount earnings of $6.9 million put him 11th in the 
national standings, while Geroux is sailing along in fifth with $9.4 million.(It 
should be mentioned that Julien Leparoux, 33, and the third of the three young 
French musketeers, sits in ninth with $7.5 million and would have been at 
Arlington on Saturday had he not fractured his wrist in a fall at Saratoga last 
Sunday.)In the $450,000 Secretariat, at 1-1/4 miles on grass, Geroux is live 
once again for Brown with Beach Patrol, while Prat rides Arlington Classic 
winner Surgical Strike for trainer Ben Colebrook. Last time out, the two colts 
were third and fifth in the Belmont Derby, separated by half a length.The 
$300,000 American St. Leger, open to all comers at 1-1/16 miles, is led by 
Geroux and Da Big Hoss, the winner of the lengthy Belmont Gold Cup. Prat is 
riding Billabong, a 7-year--old with baffling form that includes his most recent 
race in Qatar, in February, for trainer Pascal Bary.dddddddddddd It was Bary who 
put the 16-year-old Prat on a ton of winners in France as an apprentice, 
however, so perhaps there will be some magic at work for their reunion.Finally, 
it will be no surprise that Geroux is in with a big chance in the Million 
itself. He won the race last year aboard The Pizza Man -- who is back to defend 
under Mike Smith -- but now goes for two straight aboard World Approval for Mark 
Casse. World Approval won the American Derby over the course last year and most 
recently took the United Nations at Monmouth Park.With John Velazquez otherwise 
occupied at Saratoga, Prat has picked up the ride on Man o War Stakes winner 
Wake Forest in the Million. If things turn out well, someone might want to mark 
the day since this will be Prats first ride for Brown.Ive been impressed with 
his riding from afar, particularly on the turf, Brown said. And he was 
available.Which doesnt always happen when a jock is leading a meet. For Brown, 
Prat and agent Derek Lawson were quick to save the date.As of Thursday morning, 
Prat had yet to knuckle down and study the form of Wake Forest, a German-bred 
6-year-old who split the field in last years Million for Andreas Wohler and was 
then sent to Brown. In addition to his win for Brown in the Man o War on very 
firm turf, Wake Forest was second in the Pan American and third in the United 
Nations. Wake Forest is in stall 10 of 13 entered, just inside of World Approval 
and the likely favorite, Godolphin Racings Tryster.The horse is pretty 
straightforward, so I wont tell Flavien too much, Brown said of Wake Forest. 
Just try to work out a good trip from a challenging post.Prat missed a chance to 
make his debut on the big stage last fall at the Breeders Cup while recovering 
from fractured vertebrae. He rode Hoppertunity to a solid third-place finish for 
Bob Baffert in the Dubai World Cup in March, and it appears as if he will be 
riding Dortmund for Baffert against California Chrome and Beholder in next weeks 
Pacific Classic.Its what we are looking for, to ride for the big trainers, Prat 
said. You dont want to feel pressure, no matter who you ride for. But it is 
exciting, and it is an honor to ride for Chad Brown. I hope we do well.Like Rick 
said to Louis Renault in foggy Casablanca, it could be the beginning of a 
beautiful friendship. ' ' '
