Jonjo Shelvey believes that the Newcastle players have let Steve McClaren down. McClaren was sacked by Newcastle ahead of their clash with Leicester on Monday Night Football. Shelvey, currently captaining the club in the absence of Fabricio Coloccini, told Sky Sports News HQ ahead of the announcement that the players deserve more of the criticism.Its obviously a sticky situation and Steve is at the forefront of it, which he doesnt deserve to be honest. But it is what it is, said Shelvey.Its nice to know what Steve thinks of me, and I think a lot of him also. Weve got to play for him while hes still in charge and hopefully he stays in charge. Shelvey had been captaining Newcastle under Steve McClaren I feel as if Ive let the club down because Ive had the captains armband twice and weve lost but its lovely to be made captain.The manager has shown a lot of faith in me to do that, I obviously adore him for it. Its just a shame Ive not been able to pick up the wins on the road and at St James Park but fingers crossed if I get the armband again, then the three points will come. Rafael Benitez could replace Steve McClaren at St James Park Despite the constant off-field speculation, Shelvey insists the players have no option but to keep their minds on the task ahead.I think you have got to keep your focus. Youre getting paid loads of money to do your job, he added. It is your job to keep yourself away from the media and the rumours. You cant listen to that because you can never believe something until it has happened.Weve been very professional this week and weve trained really well. Training has been fun and enjoyable and were just preparing as usual for the Leicester game. Newcastle fell to a 3-1 defeat against Bournemouth on Saturday afternoon, with the full time whistle seeing boos ring out around St James Park, but Shelvey says the players are ready to face the fans criticism. There are two types of players, he added. You either come to the front of it or you go and hide but I think the way I am, I come to the front of it and just try and embrace it.We want to try and prove to everyone that were not people that want to hide. I think the players have let the club down. I dont feel like the manager has, I feel like its the players.

RIO DE JANEIRO --?Inbee Park was in the 16th fairway, only 50 yards from the hole, and couldnt imagine a worse spot to be.She already had lost a three-shot lead in gusts up to 30 mph Friday at Olympic Golf Course.And now she faced a shot that would punish anything just a little long or a little left.The safe play was the middle of the green and get out of there with a par.Park had other ideas. She took two months off from golf to get ready for the Olympics, and it was time to trust her instincts.Luckily, I had an uphill lie, she said. I said, Im just going to go for this pin. I have confidence that I can stop it if I hit the distance. I played aggressive golf there, and it really worked good.Starting with that pitch to tap-in range, she birdied two straight holes and shot a 1-under 70 to take a two-shot lead into the final round.Now comes the real test. Just as difficult as the wind was seeing the name of Lydia Ko --the No. 1 player in womens golf --right behind her.Ko made the first hole-in-one of her career as she raced into contention with a 65, closing the gap to two shots. The 19-year-old from New Zealand started the day seven shots behind and now has a solid chance at gold.We all know theres a lot on the line at the end of tomorrow, Ko said. I think Ive done a good job of putting myself in there and still having the chance to be standing on that podium.Gerina Piller, the American who narrowly qualified for the Olympics in her final event, shot a 68 and joined them in the final group, two shots behind.Piller has never won on the LPGA Tour, though there is something about playing for her country that brings out her best golf. Pillers signature moment was making the winning putt for the United States in the Solheim Cup last year in Germany.I feel like I have a chance at this, she said. Im going to try to do the best I can and represent my country with class.Shanshan Feng of China shot 68 and was three shots back. Starting times have been moved up with play starting on the first and 10th tees because of more rugged conditions in the forecast.Park was still the player to beat.The 28-year-old South Korean finally got her putter going, and shes among the best in womens golf on the greens.Her struggles were with the longer clubs, especially as the wind became fierce.ddddddddddddPark tried to play short on the par-4 12th into the wind and hit into the sandy native area. On the par-3 14th, her hybrid went well over the green into more trouble, and she lost her lead.Those two late birdies helped alleviate one final mistake. On the par-5 closing hole, Parks tee shot found a bunker and it took three more shots to reach the green. She made one last bogey and was at 11-under 202.I feel I hung in there, and Im very happy I have a chance tomorrow, Park said. It was hard to judge the distance, and on the green it was hard to concentrate because the ball was oscillating. Im pretty exhausted.Charley Hull of Britain fell out of the chasing pack by missing three par putts inside 5 feet on the back nine. She shot 74 and was six shots behind. Brooke Henderson of Canada, the No. 2 player in womens golf, struggled even more. Henderson was still in the mix when she four-putted for double bogey on the 16th hole, taking three of those putts from 3 feet. She wound up with a 75 and was seven back.Ko is right where she wants to be and is the most seasoned of those going after the gold medal, the first for womens golf since 1900. She is a four-time winner on the LPGA Tour this year, the best player in womens golf and finally got some confidence in her putter.She used a 7-iron for her hole-in-one on the par-3 eighth hole --the second of the day after Lin Xiyu of China made an ace on that hole --as the highlight of a front nine in which she shot 29.Ko was stunned to hear the cheering when it dropped in.I made my first ever hole-in-one, so to do that at the Olympics, it doesnt get any better than that, Ko said.But to put myself back into good position going into tomorrow I think was a job well done going forward.Stacy Lewis went backward. The American, who began the day one shot behind, made a bogey on the easy par-5 fifth by hitting into the water, and closed out her round with a double bogey on the 18th when her third shot sailed long into the native area, and she chipped back over the green. She shot 76. ' ' '
