Palermo keen on Ferdinand

One of the most surprising transfer stories of this summer could be Palermo’s move for Sunderland defender Anton Ferdinand. The Italian side are looking to take the 25 year old on a season long loan in a deal.

The Black Cats boss Steve Bruce, hasn’t indicated to Online Betting pundits whether he would be willing to let Ferdinand leave the club but it looks probable. With Sunderland signing five new defenders this summer it looks as though Ferdinand’s time at the Stadium of Light could be over. It would appear that Titus Bramble, Nedum Onuoha, Ahmed Al-Muhammadi and Marcos Angeleri are all ahead in the pecking order of Ferdinand. Ghana captain John Mensah has also rejoined on another loan deal for this season adding to the numbers.

With so much competition for places at Sunderland, Ferdinand could find the option of a move to southern Italy to compete in Serie A betting as a very tempting one. The Italian club are understood to have enquired about the possibility of offering the former West Ham player the chance to spend a season in Serie A. The versatile defender is weighing up his options as he waits to hear what his manager decides to do.

Palermo surprised many last season by finishing fifth in Serie A, qualifying for the Europa League in the process. Delio Rossi’s team narrowly missed out on a Champions League place by just three points as he turned around the club’s fortunes after being hired near the end of last year. The club have strengthen this summer as they look to make the step up into genuine title challengers.

Fun-Loving Bubba Watson Gets Serious at Whistling Straits

Sheboygan, Wisconsin - While other players waited out the fog delay on the driving range or putting green, Bubba Watson played games on his phone and threw things at Rickie Fowler while his good friend was trying to sleep.

There are, Watson knows all too well, more important things to get worked up about than a round of golf.

The fun-loving Watson earned a share of the early lead with Francesco Molinari at the PGA Championship on Thursday, shooting a four-under 68. Jason Day of Australia turned in a 3-under 69, and sits one shot off the lead.

Afterward, he choked up talking about the difficult year his family has endured, with his father battling cancer and his wife having a scare of her own.

“It’s kind of emotional now,” he said, stopping several times to compose himself. “The first doctor told us the wrong diagnosis, but we didn’t know that at the time, so it was scary.”

It wasn’t all that long ago that Watson had a different outlook on life. A fan favorite for his booming tee shots and pink-shafted driver, he missed five straight cuts last summer, starting at the British Open.

Usually good-natured, he found himself getting angry every time he stepped on the course.

Finally, his longtime caddie — and good friend — Ted Scott pulled him aside. Watson needed to change his attitude. If not, Scott said, he could find a new caddie.

“When he sat there as a good friend of mine and told me that he was going to quit because of my attitude, you’ve got to change it,” Watson said.

Instead of getting worked up about his game, now Watson puts as big a premium on fun as he does on his driving and putting.

Since arriving at Whistling Straits on Sunday night, Watson and Fowler have been busy tossing the football around and playing basketball.

Of course, if any player could use some off-the-course levity these days, it’s Watson.

When he and his wife were visiting his father during Christmas, Angie Watson checked herself into a hospital with a severe headache.

“She’s a professional athlete who had surgery on knees, shoulder, everywhere possible,” Watson said of his wife, a former WNBA player.

“So when she wants to go to the hospital, I know something’s wrong.”

She wound up only being dehydrated. But doctors told the Watsons that, during the course of their tests, they’d found a tumor in Angie Watson’s pituitary gland.

“Two months went by and we did some more tests — man, this is hard,” Watson said, stopping to compose himself.

Later, doctors told them Angie Watson did not have cancer. Like many taller women, her pituitary gland was enlarged.

When Watson won in Hartford in June, the emotions of everything he’s gone through this last year spilled over.

“When I’ve been angry, my wife has yelled at me a few times and said, ‘Why are you angry? This is what you love to do,’ ” he said.

“When you’re home, when you’re not playing golf, you’re playing golf with all the boys back home. So you love to do this. So why not just go have fun and do it.’ ”

Dewi Safitri's Youth Olympic Bronze Medal Backs Big Talk

Jakarta - Dewi Safitri promised she would bring home an Independence Day gift for Indonesia from the inaugural Youth Olympic Games in Singapore. And the 17-year-old weightlifter did more than just talk by snatching bronze in the girls’ 53-kilogram division on Monday, the first medal for Indonesia at the Games.

Dewi’s third-place podium effort was powered by a 71-kg snatch lift and then a 100-kg lift in the clean and jerk for a combined lift of 171kg.

Her Games performance went one kilogram better than her total at the 2009 Asian Youth Championships in Tashkent, Uzbekistan, where she placed third and punched her ticket to the Youth Olympics.

“Before I left for Singapore I promised that I would get a medal as an Independence Day gift for the country. I did it,” Dewi told the Jakarta Globe on Tuesday.

Bulgaria’s Boyanka Kostova won the gold with a total lift of 192kg, while silver went to Taiwan’s Kuo Hsing Chun with a 174-kg effort.

Despite the medal, Indonesia’s weightlifting coach, Sodikin, said his star lifter could have done better still.

“That’s not her best performance,” Sodikin said. “I think it was because she felt a bit more pressure as she was the country’s best hope for a medal.”

Sodikin said that last week Dewi lifted 182kg — 77kg in the snatch and 105kg in the clean and jerk — in training before heading off to Singapore.

“But this is still a great achievement and I hope it motivates other young athletes, especially lifters, to excel on the world stage,” he said.

Indonesia’s other star lifter, 16-year-old Zainuddin, failed to follow in Dewi’s footsteps after the pride of the boys squad finished in fifth in the 62-kg division with a total lift of 239kg.

Kim Song-chol, from North Korea, won the gold with a 257-kg total lift, followed by Colombia’s Jose Mena (247kg) and Turkey’s Emre Buyukunlu (246kg).

Zainuddin made the team when he replaced another Indonesian lifter, 15-year-old Sumaryanto, who was younger than the Games’ minimum age requirement for lifters.

The country’s hope to get another medal from badminton was dashed on Tuesday as Evert Sukamta lost 21-11, 14-21, 21-13 to South Korean Kang Ji-wook in boys’ single last eight round.

Renna Suwarno failed to qualify for the girls’ singles quarterfinals after falling 21-12, 22-20 to China’s Deng Xuan in the final match of Group D, Monday.

It was Renna’s first defeat in group play. Deng, meanwhile, advances to the quarterfinals after leading the group with a perfect 3-0 record.

The country’s young cyclists also came up short in their bid to give Indonesia its second medal of the day.

Elga Kharisma Novanda finished 13th in a field of 26 riders in the junior women’s cross-country competition at Tampines Bike Park on Tuesday.

The result came as a disappointment to Elga, who finished second at the same venue in May, to gain a spot at the first-ever Games.

Elga finished the 15.5-km race in 55 minutes and 25 seconds — 8:27 behind the eventual champion, Karolina Kalasova of the Czech Republic.

Linda Indergand of Switzerland took the silver, while the bronze medal went to Canada’s Kristina Laforge.

Indonesia’s Destian Satria finished 28th in the junior men’s cross-country event.

Indonesia winless at Asia Cup qualification

Non-qualifier Indonesia finished its Asia Cup group stage without a win after losing its last match against Australia at Brisbane’s Suncorp stadium on Wednesday.

Needing only a draw to qualify for the finals in Qatar next year, Australia piled pressure on the Indonesian opposition from the start, but scored the only goal just three minutes before the half time. Mark Mulligan slammed home a rebound underneath Indonesian goalkeeper Markus Horison after his attempt to latch on to a free-kick hit the woodwork.

The victory gave Australia 11 points from six matches and handed Indonesia its third defeat. The other slot to the Cup finals will be decided in the other match now underway in Oman between the home side and Kuwait.

Indonesia had already crashed out of the continental soccer competition for the first time since 1996 following a 2-1 defeat to Oman at home on Jan. 6.
