LAS VEGAS -- The birdie putt was still a foot away from the hole when Rod Pampling raised his right arm and thrust it in the air as the ball tumbled into the cup.His victory Sunday in Las Vegas was a long time coming.Pampling left nothing to chance by holing a 30-foot putt on the final hole at the TPC Summerlin to close with a 6-under 65 for a two-shot victory in the Shriners Hospitals for Children Open, his first PGA Tour title in 10 years.Sometimes you amaze yourself at what you can do under the gun, which hadnt been for a long time, Pampling said. And it was great.The 47-year-old Australian last won on the PGA Tour at Bay Hill in 2006. He lost his card and spent two full seasons on the Web.com Tour, and then had to return to the Web.com Tour Finals at the end of last season just to get his card back.He was No. 451 in the world ranking.And now Pampling is headed to Kapalua for the Tournament of Champions in January, and hell be returning to the Masters for the first time in 10 years.Its extremely rewarding, Pampling said. Winning Arnold Palmers event is still on top. But coming back from what weve had the last few years, to get a win under the belt, its phenomenal. Amazing.Brooks Koepka closed with a 67 to finish second.Lucas Glover, going for his first victory in five years, was tied with Pampling with two holes to play until he made a bogey from the bunker on the par-3 17th, and he closed with another bogey when winning was out of reach. He shot a 69 to finish third.Francesco Molinari of Italy had a career-best 61 and tied for fourth with Geoff Ogilvy (68) and Harris English (67).For someone who had gone so long since he last won, Pampling kept his poise even when it looked as though the final round was getting away from him. He began the back nine with two bogeys in three holes -- a three-putt on No. 10, missing the green with a pitching wedge on No. 12 -- and fell one shot behind Glover.Pampling bounced back with a 12-foot birdie putt, and an 8-iron to 18 feet for birdie on the 14th to catch Glover. Pampling made a 12-foot birdie on the next hole to keep pace, and his biggest shot might have been for par.Tied for the lead on the par-5 16th, he pushed his drive well right into rough so deep that Pampling asked to identify his ball, and it was a good thing -- it wasnt his ball. His ball was a foot to the right, buried so badly that he could only muscle it some 30 yards behind another tree, and he had to lay up short of the water. From 121 yards, Pampling hit wedge into 6 feet and saved par to stay tied.That was the turning point for Rod, and that was awesome, Glover said. He played great.Glovers tee shot on the 17th was about a foot away from being good, but it caught the lip of the bunker and left a difficult shot with the green sloping away from him. He missed a 12-foot par putt and never caught up.Pampling finished at 20-under 264 and will be exempt up until his 50th birthday when he is eligible for the PGA Tour Champions.After this week I still think I have a couple of more wins, so Im looking forward to the next few years and just see what we can do. Pampling said.The victory was the third of his PGA Tour career for Pampling, who also won the now-defunct International in 2004. It puts him in the Masters for the first time since 2007, along with the PGA Championship for the first time since 2009.He became the fifth Australian to win on the PGA Tour this year, joining Jason Day, Adam Scott, Greg Chalmers and Aaron Baddeley.Ogilvy had his best finish since he tied for second in the Deutsche Bank Championship two years ago. Keegan Bradley closed with a 66 and tied for seventh. Bradley tied for sixth two weeks ago in Malaysia, giving him consecutive top 10s for the first time since March 2013.Aaron Wise, the NCAA champion from Oregon, tied for 10th and earned a spot in the field next week in Mexico.

JOHNS, N. A five-game slate is on tap in the NBA for Thursday, and were here to help you win in daily fantasy contests.Below youll find the players our experts are building their teams around, as well as some players who will be highly owned but should be faded. Our panel today consists of Renee Miller, Joe Kaiser and Kyle Soppe.Building blockKyle Soppe -- John Wall, PG, Washington WizardsSo youre telling me there are other options to build around than the fourth-most-used player against the least-efficient defense that played last night? Im not listening to that idea on a short slate tonight. Yes, I know that Wall also played last night, but the Wiz kept his minutes in check (24, his fewest since Valentines Day last season) and are expected to let him play his normal amount this evening against the Knicks. Washington is aiming to monitor his minutes during back-to-backs for health reasons, which is fine, but its an important distinction to draw as they are not doing it for production reasons. Wall actually averaged more points and rebounds (while sustaining his percentages and assist totals) on zero days rest last season than on any other amount of rest. Wall hasnt double-doubled in nearly two weeks, a streak that I feel ends tonight.Renee Miller -- Damian Lillard, PG, Portland Trail BlazersPoint guard is unusually tough, or easy, tonight, depending on how you look at it. Many of the normally reliable options face ugly matchups with slow-paced, defensive-minded backcourts such as Utah, Miami, New York, Milwaukee and Washington. That leaves Lillard and James Harden, facing off in tonights highest point total (and closest) game, as my top guard options. Lillard has been at his best this season at home in competitive games. I think we get the more important half of that equation right tonight, and I feel comfortable with Lillard in all formats given the alternatives.Joe Kaiser -- Joel Embiid, C, Philadelphia 76ersEmbiid sat out Wednesdays win over Washington and should have lively legs for tonights big matchup against Karl-Anthony Towns and the visiting Minnesota Timberwolves. While Embiids salary is rising on DraftKings and FanDuel, he remains a solid value on botth sites as he continues to make the most of every minute on the court.dddddddddddd He has a floor of around 20 and a ceiling of close to 40, which makes him a very nice option on Thursday, particularly on FanDuel, where hes cheaper.Player to fadeKyle Soppe -- Dwyane Wade, SG, Chicago BullsIts not you, its me. And by you I mean Wade and by me I mean the Jazz. Utah boasts one of the premier defenses in basketball and with them facing another bottom-10 team in terms of pace of play, I expect this to be an ugly game for fantasy purposes. The limited number of possessions will put the onus on efficiency and Im just not buying that from Wade in this spot. The 28.6-percent career three point shooter has taken 21.1-percent of his shots from distance this season (not to mention no more than five free throw attempts in six straight), not a trend I am buying long-term. Wade has yet to produce more than five dimes in a single game this year, so if the points arent there, it is going to be difficult for him to reach value tonight. If youre looking for a pivot, Id look to the Wolves Zach LaVine in what projects to be the second-highest scoring game of the night (with an implied total that opened 16 points higher than the Bulls/Jazz game)Renee Miller -- Taj Gibson, PF, Chicago BullsI include Gibson here because I already trash-talked a bunch of point guards Im not using above, and because I so often rely on him as an affordable, safe play. Gibson has his down games, and they come against formidable frontcourt defenses like Miami last week and Utah tonight. This game should be slower in pace than even the Bulls are used to, and if youre looking to save salary at a forward slot, which I think is smart, look no further than across the court at Trey Lyles tonight.Joe Kaiser -- Derrick Rose, PG, New York KnicksRose hasnt reached 30 DFS points in any of the last five games, and I dont see it happening tonight on the second of a back-to-back against a Washington team thats the best in the league at preventing DFS points to opposing point guards.
