World No 3 Jordan Spieth blamed his short game and wedge play for a disappointing 72 after squandering a flying start to the third round of The Open. The two-time major winner carded birdies on the first, third, sixth and seventh at Royal Troon to get back to level par for the tournament after making the cut on the mark of four over par on Friday.But Spieth then bogeyed the ninth and 10th and ran up a double bogey on the 11th on his way to a one-over round and five-over-par for the tournament. Leaderboard The 145th Open With winds forecast to gust up to 30mph, tournament organisers had opted not to cut or roll the greens and moved tees forward on the eighth, 11th, 16th and 17th.I was disappointed that the tees were up on 16 and 17, Spieth said. I dont think that did anything to it. Not disappointed, I think it was unnecessary.But the one on eight is pretty cool so its under 100 yards now and youre trying to figure out what club to hit and how to hit it, where to hit it, almost where to lay up. For how strong the wind was when we were on the tee, I thought that was a great set-up. Jordan Spieths last 10 Major rounds: 0 under par rounds 18 over par And although Spieth felt he has been striking the ball well, he also felt that he was let down by other areas of his game.Im hitting the ball great, he said. Very pleased with that. I hit it well enough to shoot four or five-under easy today. On the front nine if I putt the way I should putt, my short game and wedge play has really let me down, too.But that really easily could have shot seven-under on that front nine.

No contract Spieth, who missed out on the play-off at St Andrews last year by a single shot, admits that he is frustrated with his golf but insists he is getting close to his best.For me, I set the expectations high for myself, but I feel like Ive been getting a little more frustrated off the golf course than normal. My game feels like its rounding into shape though, said the 22-year-old. Spieth said his ball striking has really let him down this year My ball striking has really let me down this year, and Ive been actually striking the ball better and better coming from the first round of Akron [WGC-Bridgestone Invitational] to the final round, and then this week I felt like Ive hit the ball really, really well.And as good as my putting has been this year, which is pretty much the same standard as last year, it just wasnt there this week. If its there this week and Im on the right end of the draw, Im hitting it well enough to be at or really near the lead.So although Im so far behind, its very close, and I feel confident about getting back to kind of the basics at home and getting ready for PGA. Danny Willett has endured a frustrating week Masters champion Danny Willett endured a frustrating time of his own on the difficult links course, posting a round of 74 to leave him seven-over for the tournament.Although the Yorkshireman refused to blame a sickness bug which hampered his progress this week, he admits it has taken its toll.Its just been a frustrating week, he said. Like I said, its been grand start to finish. Had a reasonable week last week practising and obviously felt sick a few days and not been able to do anything.

On Dec. 4, 2014, his legacy could be restored. Alfredsson will announce his retirement Thursday in the city he called home for 17 years. The longtime captain will skate in pre-game warm-ups with the Senators one last time, take a ceremonial faceoff and in the process show that the damaged relationship between him and the organization has been repaired. It puts the shadow, whatever you want to call it - we dont need to talk about it anymore, really, Senators defenceman Chris Phillips said. All the fences have been mended and rightfully so. Alfredsson, the Senators captain from 1999 through 2013, stunned the hockey world last year by leaving to sign with the Detroit Red Wings. His departure after 1,178 games, 426 goals and 682 assists, several playoff runs and a trip to the 2007 Stanley Cup final left raw emotions on both sides. Once back problems prevented the 41-year-old right-winger from playing this season, he told the Red Wings and Senators that he was ready to call it a career. Its only fitting that he does it in the nations capital. Im really happy to see Alfie kind of reconcile with the team, said Dallas Stars centre Jason Spezza, who was Alfredssons successor as the Senators captain. How things ended and him moving on was, I think, a move that he felt was necessary. I think it was probably the right move for him. But now that its over and hes decided hes going to hang them up, I think its good that Ottawas welcoming him back. Spezza, who asked for and was granted a trade this past summer, said of Alfredssons situation that its a little bit of water under the bridge and time heals wounds. Plenty of time has elapsed since Alfredsson spurned the Senators to go to Detroit, where he tied as the Red Wings leading scorer. Thursdays Welcome Home celebration takes the healing process to another level. Alfredsson will announce his retirement at Canadian Tire Centre in the morning, then take the ice for warm-ups with the Senators before their game against the New York Islanders. Itll be the last time the No. 11 is worn on a Senators jersey and the last chance for the future Hall of Famer to soak in the adulation from the crowd before his number is raised to the rafters at some point soon. Its a unique chance for the seminal player in Senators history and the fans to say goodbye to each other. Its great that theyre going to get a chance, coach Paul MacLean said. Lots of times once you leave, its over and done with. So the opportunity of him coming back gives the fans I guess some final closure. Skating in warm-ups is also a first-of-its-kind idea, one that the Senators needed to get special permission from the NHL to execute. The league gave it, and friend and teammate Erik Karlsson is glad to be a part of it. Its the honourable way to end (his) career and celebrate a player thats done so much for this organization and this team, even before the time that most of us got here, said Karlsson, the Senators current captain. Its going to be a thing that everybody will remember for the rest of their careers. Alfredssons career is impossible to forget because as he went, so did the Senators. A native of Gothenburg, Sweden, he was a sixth-round pick, 133rd overall, in 19994 and over the years played in 121 of the 126 playoff games in franchise history.dddddddddddd Along the way, lifted the Prince of Wales Trophy and was the spokesman and the symbol of the team for almost two decades. He was a pillar and a foundation of that organization, Spezza said Tuesday in Toronto. Theres not a lot of tradition yet in that city, and he is the first real big player thats played (almost) his whole career there. I think its good that they can recognize him and give him the recognition that he deserves. Last week the team unveiled a video montage of some of Alfredssons most memorable moments with the Senators and the Swedish national team. Set to Coming Home by Ditty-Dirty Money and Skylar Grey, lyrics like let the rain wash away all the pain of yesterday and back where I belong set the tone for an emotional reunion. Owner Eugene Melnyk wrote on Twitter last week that Dec. 4 will be a truly special and historic day for the Ottawa Senators. On Monday he wrote that he had spoken to Alfredsson to finalize what will be the biggest Welcome Home celebration Ottawa has ever seen. Even though I think hes come to terms with the decision he made with retiring, I think it might hit him a little bit harder when he comes in the rink again and sees all the people, Karlsson said. I think its probably going to take him a while to realize what really happened. As a young player in the NHL, Alfredsson wasted little time making an impact on the Senators, winning the Calder Trophy as rookie of the year in 1995-96. Defenceman Mark Borowiecki, who grew up a Senators fan outside Ottawa, said that season was a glimmer of hope for fans. That was pretty early on in our time as a franchise, Borowiecki said. It was pretty neat to see kind of a top-end-talent player like that in Ottawa. Alfredsson spearheaded 15 trips to the post-season, most notably in 2007 when the Senators went to the Stanley Cup final before losing to the Anaheim Ducks. He won a gold medal with Sweden at the 2006 Olympics in Turin as the teams leading scorer and helped lead an injury-ravaged 2013 without Spezza and Karlsson for major parts of the season to the playoffs. He was a guy that, through any changeover, he had been there, Spezza said. He had seen the good, the bad and the ugly. He had kind of been a part of things from the start when they were really bad, and he was with us and our captain when we had really good teams and we were knocking on the door to win the Cup, and he kind of saw us regressing a little bit towards the end. Hes a guy thats really been through it all there. Alfredsson went through it all and then some, including the ugly breakup in the summer of 2013 that was hard to see coming. In spite of that, many fans still wear Alfredsson jerseys to games, and pictures of him can still be found all over the arena. Hes etched in Ottawa sports history, something that will be front and centre as he laces up his skates with the Senators one final time. This is where he should retire, Karlsson said. He still loves this organization and this city. As of right now, the Ottawa Senators really show that they love him back just as much. --- Follow @SWhyno on Twitter Note to readers: This is a corrected story.
