FARMINGDALE, N.Y. -- Rickie Fowler is playing so well that he cant stop looking behind instead of considering the opportunity that lies ahead at The Barclays.His wedge to 5 feet for a birdie on the 18th hole Saturday not only gave him a 3-under 68 and a one-shot lead over Patrick Reed, it was his 45th consecutive hole without a bogey at Bethpage Black, one of the strongest golf courses of the year.In three rounds, he has made only one bogey.That was on the ninth hole Thursday, a 4-foot putt that spun hard around the cup back at him. And yes, it still gnaws at him.Unfortunately, that one bogey ... it was more than a 180-degree lipout, he said with a smile. So it was basically like going 54 holes, no bogeys. Around this place, Im happy about that. Its been very close to having the game be where it is right now.The timing could not be better for Fowler.He is in solid position to win for the first time on the PGA Tour in a year, and to play his way onto the U.S. Ryder Cup team.This is the final tournament for Americans to earn one of the eight automatic spots for the Ryder Cup matches at Hazeltine at the end of next month. Fowler was at No. 12 going into the opening FedEx Cup event and needed at least a third-place finish to earn a spot.Its nice to finally see some putts go in, Fowler said. With a few putts going in, it frees up the rest of your game. Ive been swinging well for a long time, and Ive been waiting for the putter to catch up.Along with three birdies, he made a pair of 10-foot par putts and a 25-foot par putt in the third round.Fowler was at 9-under 204, and his work was not done. Not even close.Reed overcame three bogeys in a four-hole stretch on the front nine and was tied for the lead on the back nine until the final two holes. Reed missed a 5-foot birdie putt on the 17th, and his 15-foot birdie putt on the 18th hole almost missed weakly to the right. He still managed a 71.Right behind was Adam Scott, who also saw his share of putts go in, especially a 45-foot birdie on the 15th hole. Scott started out his round by holing a lob wedge from 98 yards for an eagle, and his 65 was the lowest score of the tournament.Scott, who hasnt seriously contended since his back-to-back victories in Florida five months ago, was two shots behind at 7-under 206.Martin Laird (69) and Emiliano Grillo (71) were three shots back, while defending champion Jason Day (70) and Justin Thomas (66) were in the group four shots back.Fowler won against a strong field in Abu Dhabi at the start of the year, and he lost a two-shot lead with two holes to play in the Phoenix Open. Since then, he hasnt been much of a factor has his ranking -- in the FedEx Cup and the Ryder Cup -- began to plunge.Not wanting to take a chance on being among the four captains picks, he has a chance Sunday to secure his spot for Hazeltine.Its pretty simple, Fowler said. Ive got to take care of business tomorrow. Its been awhile since Ive been in this position. Its going to be tough tomorrow. Were on one of the -- if not the -- toughest golf courses we play all year. Its been a long time coming, and its going to be fun.Reed, dressed all in black on another scorching afternoon on Long Island, managed to escape with a bogey from a horrible lie right of the third green. He muffed a chip on the fifth hole and made bogey, then drove well right into a bunker and made another bogey on the sixth hole. He bounced back with a pair of birdies, and made all pars on the back nine. Considering the difficulty of the Blacks back nine, that was more than enough to stay in the game.Scott can relate to how Fowler is feeling with the putter. He had no complaints with how he played tee-to-green, but he was getting aggravated with his putting. One good round, finally, changed his outlook.The front nine is the gettable nine, and to turn in 4 under set up my round, Scott said. I knew anything under par on the back, I would have a great round, and that was kind of my goal. I rolled a couple long ones in, and that felt good and kept the momentum going. Hopefully, something to build on for tomorrow and beyond.Jordan Spieth scrambled his way out of the rough and the sand. Spieth didnt hit a fairway from the second hole until the 15th, yet he still played even par. But on the par-3 17th, he flubbed a chip and took double bogey, and a birdie on the final hole gave him a 72. He was six shots behind. Yeezy Scarpe Sito Ufficiale .

GENEVA -- A report by the World Anti-Doping Agency included more details from investigators about how Russian athletes -- with help from government officials -- doped and got away with it at the Sochi Olympics.Mondays report agreed with earlier stories that said the Russian government, secret service and state-funded anti-doping operation let cheating athletes compete and win medals. Canadian law professor Richard McClarens report supported allegations made by Grigory Rodchenkov, the former director of the WADA-accredited lab in Moscow. Rodchenkov fled Russia and detailed the scam for The New York Times in May.Because of the report, WADA recommended banning all Russian athletes from the Rio de Janeiro Olympics.Some questions and answers about the report:---WHAT DID THE REPORT FIND?Since 2013, German and American television programs, and British and American newspapers have detailed widespread Russian doping in track and field and beyond. Rodchenkovs claims went further, detailing a scam that included cooperation from athletes, lab workers and security workers.McLaren said Monday he was supremely confident of his findings, which found most of Rodchenkovs claims credible, including that a mouse hole in the Sochi testing laboratory allowed for a urine-swapping scheme to replace steroid-laced samples, enabled by secret service agents breaking into tamper-proof bottles.Claims of bottle tampering and adding salt to urine samples to make them more credible all checked out after independent expert analysis, the report found.The surprise of this latest report, McLaren wrote, was the extent of State oversight and directed control of the Moscow Laboratory to cover up cheating.And the reports last November of 1,400 stored samples in Moscow destroyed to deny them to WADA investigators? Well, it was more like 8,000, McLaren now says.---ISNT RUSSIA ALREADY BANNED FROM THE RIO OLYMPICS?Only the Russian track and field team, so far, is banned from the Summer Games starting Aug. 5.Tuesday is a huge day for Russias Olympic status on two fronts in the IOCs home city of Lausanne, Switzerland.The International Olympic Committees president, Thomas Bach, will lead a conference call of his 15-member executive board to discuss fallout of the McLarren report.dddddddddddd.A blanket ban of Russian teams across all 28 Summer Games sports -- even in those few not tarnished by Mondays report -- has to be an option.Across town, the IAAF governing bodys expulsion of the Russian track team is being challenged by the Russian Olympic body at the Court of Arbitration for Sport.That urgent verdict is scheduled for Thursday but could be rendered meaningless by an IOC blanket ban.---HOW DID THE SCHEME WORK?It was already alleged that the Russian sports ministry, and state-funded anti-doping agency and lab were in on the scam.The labs role as the failsafe mechanism was central to Mondays report, enabling the Russian state to transform a positive analytical result into a negative one.All positive samples at the Moscow lab had to be reported up to the Deputy Minister of Sport, Yuri Nagornykh -- a 2010 appointee by then-Prime Minister Vladimir Putin.The ministry could then order which to report as negative to the global WADA system.Still, when Russia hosted international sports events which brought independent observers -- the Sochi Olympics, the 2013 track world championships -- then deeper deception was needed.Hence, bottle tampering by the secret service.---WERE INDIVIDUAL ATHLETES IDENTIFIED?None are named by McLaren on Monday, though some names emerged in May after reports by CBSs 60 Minutes and the New York Times, which interviewed Rodchenkov.He suggested that four gold medalists and at least 15 medalists from Sochi were tainted.---WHATS NEXT?Bach and the IOC are on the clock.The IOC expects to publish a statement on Tuesday summing up its boards judgment. No news conference is planned.If Russias Olympic committee is banned from entering any teams for Rio, it would likely be allowed to appeal that decision at the Court of Arbitration for Sport.Sports highest court of appeal can turn around fast justice at a push.It could mean Olympic brinkmanship just days before the opening ceremony.And WADA has asked for more funding so McLaren can complete more detailed work after this report, which was delivered in 57 days so it came out before the Summer Games.
