LOUISVILLE, Ky. - For Tiger Woods, there was a familiar complaint. Yes, his back was hurting again. His performance at the PGA Championship is becoming more the norm, as well. Once the games most dominant player, Woods looked old and tired at Valhalla. He was surely overmatched Friday, shooting his second straight 3-over 74 to miss the cut at one of golfs biggest events for only the fourth time in his professional career. Not that this was a big surprise. Woods was playing in only his fourth tournament since back surgery in late March, and he hasnt been a factor in any of them. He failed to make the cut at the Quicken Loans National. He had his worst 72-hole showing in a major at the British Open. He had to withdraw on the final day of the World Golf Championship at Firestone after taking an awkward swing and hurting his back again. He showed up Wednesday at Valhalla, proclaimed himself fit — and flopped again. "I tried as hard as I could. Thats about all Ive got," Woods said. "Unfortunately, I just didnt play well. Consequently, a pair of 74s is not very good." With the cut at 1 over, Woods wasnt even close to playing on the weekend. He was effectively done after shooting a 4-over 39 on the front nine, including a double bogey at No. 6 — where he three-putted from 18 feet — and a really ugly bogey at the par-5 seventh. He drove into a muddy bog far left of the fairway and had to punch out. He sailed his third shot over the green, and a sloppy chip came up short. Woods played better on the back side — a couple of birdies, a single bogey — but he was all done at that point. He said his chances effectively ended when the same problem that left him barely able to bend over at Firestone cropped up again on the driving range at Valhalla. "I was sore," Woods said. "There was no doubt I was sore. It went out on me on me on the range. I just had to play through it." There were no obvious indications of pain on the course, certainly nothing like his tortured departure from last weeks tournament. He appeared to reach for his back a little after the errant tee shot on No. 7, but didnt actually touch it. There were plenty of grimaces, but those usually came after he hit another poor shot. Woods insisted he had the "same feeling, same pain, same spasms" that forced him to drop out at Firestone, though he was encouraged that it wasnt in the same spot as his back surgery. "It was telling me on the range that it probably wasnt a good idea (to play)," he said, referring to his back. "I couldnt make a back swing. I cant get the club back. Im coming through fine. I just cant get the club back. That throws everything off. I cant get anywhere near the positions Im accustomed to getting to. I just cant do it. I have to rely on my timing and my hands, and hope I time it just right." Hell not have plenty of time to work on his game and build up his strength. If he doesnt play next week at the Wyndham Championship in Greensboro, North Carolina, — and he never has — his season is over. Woods needed to win the PGA to qualify for the FedEx Cup playoffs. It also seems highly unlikely that Woods will be one of the wild-card picks by U.S. Ryder Cup captain Tom Watson, who said over and over that he wanted to see some sign the 14-time major champion was rounding into form. Instead, Woods cant even beat the 64-year-old captain, finishing behind him at the British Open and three shots worse at the PGA. "I dont know," Woods said, when asked about his chances of being chosen by Watson. "He hasnt called." Might be best if he sits out this Ryder Cup. Woods conceded he needs to get stronger and more fit to have any chance of being close to the player he once was. "I felt like I wasnt that far away when I came back at the Quicken Loans," Woods said. "But obviously, the more I play, I cant develop my strength while playing a lot. I need to get back in the gym and get stronger." ___ Follow Paul Newberry on Twitter at www.twitter.com/pnewberry1963 Vapormax 97 Bianche .com) - Jimmie Johnson won Sundays AAA Texas 500 while championship contenders Jeff Gordon and Brad Keselowski as well as their teams were involved in a post-race fight on pit road after the two clashed in the closing laps at Texas Motor Speedway.

Ferguson told Uniteds in-house TV channel on Saturday that he has no immediate plans to walk away from the game, and that he still hungers for more trophies even after 25 years in charge of the club.NEW YORK -- Canadians Daniel Nestor and Vasek Pospisil dropped a 6-7 (1), 7-5, 6-2 decision to the top-seeded duo of Bob and Mike Bryan in third-round mens doubles play Sunday at the U.S. Open. A victory by the unseeded Canadians would have ended the Americans bid for a 2013 Grand Slam sweep. The brothers won earlier this year at the Australian Open, French Open and Wimbledon. "We werent thinking of that at all," said Nestor. "We were just trying to win: big match, centre court, TV, you want to win those matches. "But to beat the Bryans you have to play your best, Until a set and 4-3 we were playing as well as we could. But I didnt continue it with my serving." Nestor, from Toronto, was broken over his last four service games and also set up match point for the Bryans with his teams eighth double-fault. Nestors serving troubles began midway through the second set and the Americans took the momentum in a match that lasted just over two hours. "I didnt serve well from 4-3," said Nestor. "It was unfortunate, it would have been nice too go into a tiebreaker in the second set.dddddddddddd "I could have mixed up my serve a bit more, I was getting repetitive with the first serve, which was not going in. My serve was definitely the difference today." With Nestors game off the mark and Pospisil, from Vernon, B.C., short of big-match experience, the Bryans were able to claw back in front of a supportive crowd. The Canadians managed to break on only one of seven chances despite producing well over 50 winners with their attacking style. The brothers pulled even at a set apiece after another break of Nestor, who remains alive in the mixed event with partner Kristina Mladenovic of France. Nestor and Mladenovic won at the French Open in June. Nestor has faced the Bryan brothers 53 times over his career with seven different partners. "It was one of those matches where we were the better team until the end of the second set," Pospisil said. "We got a bit unlucky on the outcome of a few challenges and the match turned. It was a few important points in crucial moments." ' ' '
