David Hearn is a little light on major championship experience, having played just three previous times in the big four tournaments. Didi Gregorius Jersey . And hes also quite green when it comes to links golf, as in hes never been on a next-to-the-sea course. Heck, hed never even been to Europe before the charter plane from the John Deere touched down on Monday morning. Even that was a bit of a last-minute decision as Hearn was on the alternate list, moving up spot by spot until he reached the first position before he decided to make the trip. So its safe to say that the golfer from Brantford, Ont., has immersed himself in all things links in his short time here; call it a major cram session. "Its been a lot of fun for me," said Hearn, who got into the field late Tuesday after former champion Mark Calcavecchia pulled out. "Its different than anything Ive seen. Coming over here I definitely have a lot to learn quickly, but Im trying not to do too much, too fast. Im just trying to take it a little bit at a time." As first alternate, Hearn was treated with complete access to the course and all other amenities afforded to the players in the field. He walked the course on Monday and then played a practice round Tuesday and 14 holes Wednesday. He was impressed with Royal Liverpool and the demands it placed on shotmaking. "Ive just enjoyed this style of golf," he said while being pelted with a light rain that fell Wednesday. "Theres not a single tree on this property and its been a lot of fun just trying to hit some creative shots." The biggest challenge for Hearn this week is obviously adapting to the golf course. Its truly unlike anything hes played before in a tournament and while hes having fun, hes also getting to experience something very new. "Our firmest courses that we play in North America arent even close to the way this course plays so here," he stated. "Its a matter of trying to figure out how long the ball is going to release. Were used to flying it and stopping it a lot. So this week Ive been spending a lot of time figuring out, how far is a wedge going to release, how long is a 5-irong going to release." Hearn comes into the Open playing some of the best golf of his career. Hes had three top-10 finishes including a tie for sixth at the Players, and collected more than $1 million. He took some time off recently before returning to the Tour for the Greenbrier and the John Deere Classic, an event he nearly won a year ago. Hes now refreshed and ready to go in the Tours closing stretch, which will be an arduous campaign. "I feel good," Hearn admitted. "I had a really good break. I took three weeks off before coming back to Greenbrier. I havent played great since I came back – I played pretty average but I felt my game was really close at the Greenbrier and again last I week I felt it was really close. Obviously the scoring here is going to be a little bit different than the last couple of weeks but Im looking forward to it. I think my game is ready for it." And if he seems just a tad bit enthusiastic, forgive the guy. After all, this is like a dream come true. "Ive been a pro for 13 years and this is my first opportunity Ive had to play in the Open Championship so I was very excited to get over here and Im thrilled to be in the tournament. Its a big highlight for me." Hearn will also get dipped right into the fire on Thursday – hes teeing off alongside Sir Nick Faldo and Todd Hamilton, both past Open champions just after 10 am local time.

The last time he got the ball, Manning kept Denver out of the end zone -- and that was the best way to win the game. The four-time MVP kept up his record pace for touchdown passes, Matt Prater kicked a 28-yard field goal as time expired after an interception by Romo spoiled the first 500-yard game in Dallas history, and the Broncos stayed unbeaten with a 51-48 victory Sunday. "It was pretty amazing that it came down to the defence making a big play at the end," Denver coach John Fox said. "Thank God our offence kept us in the game all day long." In the waning seconds of one of the highest-scoring thrillers in NFL history, Manning ensured that his kicker -- not Romo -- had the last chance to score. And with that, the Broncos ran their total to 230 points this season -- the most by an NFL team through the first five games. The Broncos have also won 16 consecutive regular-season games. The Broncos (5-0) had moved the ball to the Dallas 2 after Danny Trevathans diving interception at the 24 in the final 2 minutes. Needing a first down but not a touchdown so they could run out the clock, Manning and Knowshon Moreno shouted at each other in the backfield just before the snap. "He basically was asking me, How am I supposed to do that? How can I get a half a yard but not get a yard and a half?" said Manning, who threw for 414 yards and four touchdowns to give him a record-setting 20 in the first five games. "I just said, You cant! You cant score! You cant do it!" Moreno managed to pull off the first down without scoring, and Manning took three snaps to drain the clock to 2 seconds for Prater, who also had a 50-yarder among his three field goals. It was quite a debate over a measly yard in a game with 1,039 yards of total offence combined in the fourth-highest highest scoring game in NFL history and tied for the second-highest in regulation since the NFL-AFL merger in 1970, according to STATS. Romo was 25 of 36 for 506 yards and five touchdowns, breaking Don Merediths franchise record of 460 yards. He is the fifth quarterback in NFL history to pass for at least 500 yards and five touchdowns in a game. Romos 79-yard pass to Dez Bryant set up a 4-yard scoring toss to Cole Beasley for a 48-41 lead. Manning, who threw for 414 yards and moved past Dan Marino for second on the career passing list with 61,371 yards, answered by leading a nine-play, 73-yard drive to Morenos tying 1-yard score with 2:44 remaining. Romos interception came two plays later, when Trevathan dived inn front of tight end Gavin Escobar. Cory Gearrin Yankees Jersey. . "I was baiting him," said Trevathan, who scared his teammates with a knee injury in practice last week that turned out not to be serious. "Romo threw it and I felt like, man, hopefully I dont drop the ball when I get in the end zone this time. I fell to the ground and said, Forget it!" The Cowboys (2-3) were on the verge of getting blown out early in the second half when they finally stopped Manning and forced a field goal. They later ended his streak of 227 passes without an interception when Morris Claiborne picked him off late in the third quarter. Dallas, which scored its most points ever in a loss, converted the turnover into a 41-38 lead on Romos 10-yard pass to Jason Witten, but the Broncos pulled even with a drive to Praters 50-yarder. The biggest momentum swing came on Romos 82-yard touchdown to rookie Terrance Williams that cut Denvers lead to 35-27 in the third quarter. "So you leave this game and obviously you are crushed and disappointed," said Witten, who had 121 yards receiving and a touchdown. "Offensively, this needs to be the standard by which we play." The Cowboys jumped ahead 14-0 in the first quarter, but Dallas defenders just couldnt stay with Denvers receivers. Then Manning fooled them and the 92,758 watching his first game at the $1.2 billion home of the Cowboys with a bootleg for an easy 1-yard score and a 28-17 lead late in the first half. Denver lined up for what looked like a run on third down from the 1. But Manning had faked the handoff, and the roar from thousands of orange-clad Denver fans grew as they realized he was jogging toward the left corner of the end zone for his first touchdown rushing since 2008. "The key is you want to do it about every five years or so," Manning said. "If you do it every game, theyre going to be playing it right. Naked bootlegs only work, the ones Ive done, is when you don tell anybody." Romo got Dallas in position for a 48-yard field goal by Dan Bailey just before halftime with a 38-yard completion to Williams, who had 151 yards receiving. Bryant had six catches for 141 yards and two touchdowns. Julius Thomas led the Broncos with 122 yards and two scores, and Moreno had 93 yards rushing for the Broncos. NOTES: Manning fell two passes short of Jake Plummers franchise record of 229 straight passes without an interception. Plummer set the mark in 2005. ... Mannings 20 TDs through five games broke Daunte Culpeppers record for Minnesota of 18 in 2004. ...
