Sports update

Tiger. All about Tiger. He wins his first title this year at the Buick Invitational. From seven off the leaderboard going into the last day, he makes a birdie on the 18th (his first on the 18th in four tries), for a play-off with Olazabal and Green. It ended in the 2nd play-off hole.

Fed Express won in four sets over Baghdatis in the Australian Open, after losing the first set. Mauresmo on Saturday won her first Slam against Justine, who retired down 2-0 in the second set. Justine had stomach cramps. She lost the first set 1-6. The press scathing of Justine's retirement in the finals has not let down. One writer called it "disgraceful". Martina Hingis won the Aussie mixed doubles 6-3, 6-3.

Oh, Masha is seeded #1 at the Toray Pan Pacific in Tokyo, where she is defending champion.
