SOUTH BEND, Ind. -- Notre Dame coach Muffet McGraw believes parity might finally hit womens basketball after seeing Connecticut win an unprecedented fourth consecutive title last postseason.I think well have a year where maybe well see a different No. 1 every other week like the men had last year, which I thought was really exciting -- unless were the ones that are not No. 1, she joked Monday.The Fighting Irish, like Baylor, Tennessee, Stanford and several other teams, have most of their best players returning. The Huskies lost three-time AP Player of the Year Breanna Stewart, Morgan Tuck and Moriah Jefferson.McGraw said shes hoping there is parity.I think its going to be great for the game, she said. This was the year nobody lost a lot of talent except for Connecticut. So I think that really evens things out.McGraw, who guided the Irish to a national championship in 2001, believes this years Irish team might be the most talented shes coached. She believes 6-3 forward Brianna Turner (14.6 points, 7.3 rebounds), the Atlantic Coast Conference player and defensive player of the year as the Irish went 33-2 last season, is the nations best player and senior Lindsay Allen, who averaged 9.3 points and 5.8 assists, is the best point guard.Allen has started every game in her three seasons at Notre Dame, leading the Irish to a 106-6 record.The Irish had gone to five straight Final Fours until they were upset 90-82 by Stanford in a regional semifinal last postseason, only their second loss in the past three seasons to a team other than Connecticut. Gone from that Irish team are Madison Cable (13.7 points) and Michaela Mabrey (6.8 points), but the Irish add a pair of talented freshmen in Jackie Young and Erin Boley, and get back Ali Patberg, who sat out her freshman year after tearing the anterior cruciate ligament in her right knee.Despite being confident in her team, McGraw said she wouldnt rank the Irish No. 1 to begin the season.I would put us in the top five. There are a lot of good teams this time of year, she said. We havent earned anything. I want to earn it. Tyler Flowers Jersey .

VICTORIA, British Columbia -- Colin Montgomerie won the Pacific Links Bear Mountain Championship on Sunday, outlasting Scott McCarron with a birdie on the third hole of a playoff.Montgomerie closed with a 4-under 67 to match McCarron at 15-under 198 at scenic Bear Mountain Resort, the first-year venue in the PGA Tour Champions event that was played in Hawaii from 2012-14.Im obviously delighted with my performance, but it was very sad, Montgomerie said, noting golf great Arnold Palmers death Sunday at age 87. I had a message to me that Arnold Palmer had passed away during the round.McCarron bogeyed the par-5 18th in regulation for a 70.Montgomerie and McCarron matched pars on 18 on the first two extra holes and Montgomerie won with a 15-footer on the third trip down the hole in the playoff.I kept on missing these putts unfortunately, but eventually got one in, Montgomerie said. So delighted that way, but again this day will be remembered, unfortunately, for very, very sad reasons.The 53-year-old Montgomeries three previous victories on the 50-and-over tour came in major championships -- the 2014 and 2015 Senior PGA Championship and 2014 U.S. Senior Open. The Scot won 31 times on the European Tour and topped the tours money list a record eight times, seven in a row from 1993-99.He marveled at the course.This is unbelievable, this golf course, Montgomerie said. To have the vision of putting a golf course on this land is quite phenomenal. I always treat golf courses as how many poor holes there are on a golf course, and this is a very good one. There isnt any poor holes, theres not one poor hole on this golf course at all.McCarron missed a chance for his second victory of the year after winning the Principal Charity CClassic in June in Iowa for his first senior title.ddddddddddddPretty disappointing, obviously, McCarron said. In regulation, missing the fairway and getting the break I did was pretty unfortunate, but I didnt hit a very good shot. But I hung in there tough, I didnt have my `A game today, but I was trying as hard as I could.He also remembered Palmer.My wife knew in the playoff, but she didnt let me know, which is a good thing, McCarron said. Arnold was one of my absolute heroes, and probably one of the greatest things Ive ever received was right after I won in Des Moines just a few months ago, I got a hand-written note from Arnold Palmer. That meant so much to me. He was just such an amazing guy and meant so much to everyone and hes going to be sorely missed. So Im very, very sad today.Miguel Angel Jimenez shot a course-record 61 to tie for third at 13 under, finishing as Montgomerie and McCarron made the turn. The Spanish star played the first five holes on the back nine in 6 under with an eagle and five birdies, then closed with four pars to miss a chance to break 60.Jeff Sluman (67), Scott Dunlap (68) and Doug Garwood (70) also were 13 under.Bernhard Langer closed with a 63 to tie for seventh at 12 under. The 59-year-old German star leads the tour with four victories this season.Fellow Hall of Famer Vijay Singh tied for 28th at 6 under after a 71.Rod Spittle topped the four Canadians in the field, closing with a 65 to tie for 38th at 4 under. Jim Rutledge was 3 under after a 68, Stephen Ames 1 over after a 69, and Murray Poje had a 73 to finish last among the 78 finishers at 21 over. ' ' '
