Theres the golfing wilderness and then theres where Newcastle battler James Nitties has emerged from to snare the Australian Open halfway lead at Royal Sydney.Ive been everywhere. Its been a pretty rough last three years, Nitties said after producing a spectacular homeward-nine 29 in a seven-under-par 65 on Friday to burst from the pack with the equal-low round.I lost my Web.com card last year, which I was on the for the last five years, the world No.732 said.Spent four years doing mini-tours and qualifiers in America so I suppose you could say Ive been spending a lot of money.So much money the 34-year-old had to sell up in the US, then give up his apartment in Dallas to his girlfriend so he could return home to stay with his mum and play pro-ams to keep his competitive juices flowing.Youve been on the PGA Tour and you competed on the Web, Nitties said of the drive to keep going.My game hasnt really changed much but youre staying in hotels which have cockroaches running around.Its fine when youre a junior and when you just turn pro. Its exciting.As you get older and you experience more, its a real battle.(But) for me its just a way to compete. Its not a fun feeling but a lot of people have middle-class jobs and they have to work 60 hours a week.If I can just work really hard for four hours and get something out of it, it really changes the perspective that you have.Nitties is nine under for the championship and one stroke ahead of New Zealander Ryan Fox, who recorded a second-straight 68.US-based Lismore product Rhein Gibson had enjoyed the clubhouse lead all afternoon until Fox birdied the last hole, then Nitties leapfrogged the son of All Blacks legend Grant Fox with an even more impressive finishing flurry.Adam Scott is lurking ominously three shots back in a five-way share of fourth place after carding a seven-birdie, one-eagle 65 in the perfect morning scoring conditions to match Nitties career round.The former world No.1 has company at six under with first-round co-leader Curtis Luck, the steely 20-year-old amateur who recovered from four dropped shots mid-round to shoot a respectable 71.In-form veteran Rod Pampling (67), big-hitting Todd Sinnott (68) and exciting 20-year-old Lucas Herbert (71) are also at six under.Two-time major champion Jordan Spieth is well poised a further shot back after a round of 70 undermined by a double bogey on the par-four 15th hole.Really, it was just the putter that needs improvement. Im still in it feeling like Ive been brainless on the greens, Spieth said.Normally (its) a stronghold of mine, so I can take that as confidence because I believe that itll be there once the weekend comes around.

Josh Allen Womens Jersey .Y. -- The Buffalo Sabres have recalled forward Kevin Porter and defenceman Chad Ruhwedel from the minors as part of a five-player roster shuffle made by the NHLs worst team. Josh Allen Jersey . PETERSBURG, Fla. Coach Don Pyke says his belief in Adelaides game plan hasnt been dented by a shock last-round AFL loss.The Crows blew a chance to finish in the top four and gain a coveted double chance in the finals when downed by West Coast in the last minor round game,But Pyke says hes firmly believes the Crows attacking style can flourish in their finals campaign, which opens with an elimination bout against North Melbourne at Adelaide Oval on Saturday night.We are not about to jump at shadows and change things, Pyke told reporters on Tuesday.We have got to this position because we have played a particular way, the players have played true to their trademark on the way through.(There is) the temptation to think you have got to reach for something substantially different.We think that were capable of producing good footy which will stand up in finals and thats the challenge, without trying to create something unique or extra special.Its often just doing what you do, doing it better, and doing it for longer against quality oppposition.ddddddddddddPyke will summon vice-captain Rory Sloane (suspension) and rebounding defender Brodie Smith (concussion) for the knockout final against the Kangaroos.And he hoped lingering concern over backmen Kyle Cheney (groin) and Luke Brown (soreness) would be extinguished at Adelaides main training session on Wednesday.Adelaide enter the elimination final as overwhelming favourites against a North side which limped into the finals - the Roos won just two of their past 11 games.But Pyke said his focus would be on the North Melbourne that won nine consecutive matches to start their season.They havent had the best back-end of the season. But they won nine games in a row to start the year so we know what theyre very capable of, Pyke said.They have got some high-quality individuals and they have got some really proud individuals who have got great history at their footy club.
