that putt was just unbelievable," said G | Forum

In Monza, ESPN sat down with Daniil Kvyat to discuss the harsh lessons from his demotion from Red Bull to Toro Rosso in May, how hes dealt with his poor form since and why?hes not worrying about where he will be in 2017. Clayton Kershaw Jersey .You were pretty downbeat before the summer break. In Belgium it seemed like the four weeks had been pretty helpful for you -- have two disappointing weekends reset your mindset?First of all, weve done our best in Spa. We have to be realistic about things. We didnt go quite where we wanted to be but it was nothing like Germany, with what happened there. Its fine. As an engineering group, technical group, we came out of the race saying wed done our best.Now its up to the engineers to understand where we can improve things because theres something quite deep inside which prevents us putting on the performance we used to. The straight-line limitation is very big and very frustrating ... but we cant do anything about that so we shouldnt even think about that.Do you still feel like youre in a better place?Im OK. Im fine -- I live with the day and nothing else, so Im fine.In the situation you were in before the summer break, it seemed like it was one bad thing after another. Is it easy to become obsessed with the finer details when youre struggling for form?That might have been the case, in the past, but Im completely fine now. I know where we are and Im realistic about things. I dont have any issues with the things youre talking about.It must be frustrating, then, that youve reached that point as Toro Rossos engine deficiency is becoming more obvious as the season wares on?Yeah, but unfortunately thats just the way things are laying at the moment. We just have to accept them and go forward. We can influence in a positive way certain things, and nothing else. It would not help me to think I cannot show [what I can do]. The right people notice things and I will have to be quite patient, but I learned this patience over the summer break.Weve seen the support given to you by Helmut Marko since your demotion. How do you feel your standing is within the team?Thats a question for them, not for me. I am doing my job, and like I admitted before the summer break, there have been some big up and downs for me. There were some big potential races that were hard to put together because I didnt know the limits of the car, the limits of the team.Now Im feeling more in line with things but I dont know what they think at the moment.Theres a lot of focus on who will be driving where in 2017...2017 is 2017. It starts in three and a half months time, so until then we just wait and see. It seems like theres no big rush.We will soon be at the stage where we approach the point where we are looking for answers about it. But at the moment I live the day of today, and nothing else, so Ill just see where it goes.Youre not thinking of life away from F1, then?No, I live with what happens today. I keep the right doors open and then we will see how this situation develops. A lot will depend on that, otherwise I dont know too much.When will we know what youre doing next year?As soon as possible, I hope. But Im not going to give any deadlines to the media. If I have them I will give them to the right people when the right time comes.There has been a lot of talk about Pierre Gasly and the fact hes leading GP2, even rumours of him replacing you as early as Singapore. Is that a distraction for you?Yeah, but it doesnt change anything for me. It doesnt have any influence on my work, or my approach, so no. I know where I stand in the team.Is it hard to stay motivated at a team lower down the grid when youve dropped from a team fighting for wins and podiums?Of course there were some issues with that at some point. It wasnt easy, I found it difficult to understand and accept things, but Ive already started forgetting these things now. Its not the biggest issue any more. I know my value. Ive probably not been the most consistent guy out there but Ive had drives on my days and last year my final position in the championship, even with by far not the best car, speaks for itself.To be honest I never had the best package on the grid... Every time we had issues with engine, with every team Ive been in. So its OK, I dont have any issues with that. Im racing for myself first of all, so I know how things stand and what I can do.You mention last year. Was there anything that could have prepared you for what was coming ahead of Spain?No, no. It was all meant to be, I guess, since I signed for Red Bull. There was quite a high chance of this kind of scenario. For one year and a half I was living without knowing what was going to happen in the next day, so its fair enough. Its a good lesson for the future though.I suppose its something you always know might happen, being in the Red Bull driver programme?You know, yes, but you dont want it to go that way! When you go up as high in your career you dont expect things to change so quickly and so dramatically. It wasnt the best thing but Ive already turned that page, this is already forgotten. Its not forgotten forgotten, but Im working with a different mindset and different thoughts in my mind, not thinking about what happened in May.Weve seen Toro Rosso slip down the pecking order since Australia. Realistically, can this team get back into the points before the end of 2016?We hope so, we would like it to be like that. Of course there are slower circuits coming up with less engine dependency which we hope are going to be more favourable for us. But of course some tracks with higher engine demands are not going to be easy. We have to understand how we can make the best out of races which should suit us.Theres a lot of excitement about next years rule changes. Red Bull or Toro Rosso seems like a good place to be if aerodynamics are going to have more of an impact....I still think engine will be important next year, the engines are staying the same. The more downforce means you will need more horsepower to push down the straights, so engines are still very important. The new rules give hope to some teams. Its always going to be interesting but I have no idea how its going to influence Red Bull or Toro Rosso. Kirk Gibson Womens Jersey . PETERSBURG, Fla. Kenley Jansen Youth Jersey . -- About a third of the way through the regular season, the Washington Wizards are at . http://www.ladodgersprostore.us/Customized/ . On Saturday night, the normally free throw-challenged centre did just that. Howard scored 18 of his 25 points in the fourth quarter, including 13 of 19 free throws in a 2 1/2-minute stretch, and the Houston Rockets beat the Denver Nuggets 122-111.BROOKLINE, Mass. -- Englishman Matt Fitzpatrick took a page out of Francis Ouimets book and advanced to the finals of the U.S. Amateur at The Country Club. With his 14-year-old brother on his bag and opponent Corey Conners of Canada sitting in the famous Vardon bunker along the 17th fairway, Fitzpatrick knocked his approach to 20 feet, then sank the birdie putt to win 2-and-1 on Saturday. Hell play in the 36-hole final against Oliver Goss, who beat fellow Australian Brady Watt 2-up in the other semifinal. A victory on Sunday would make Fitzpatrick the first U.S. Amateur champion from England since Harold Hilton in 1911. And he would do it at the course where Ouimet, a local amateur with a 10-year-old caddie on his bag, beat British pros Harry Vardon and Ted Ray in the 1913 U.S. Open in an upset that gave golf its first and biggest boost in the United States. "Its a nice position to be in," said Fitzpatrick, who along with Goss earned a spot in the U.S. Open and an expected invitation to the Masters just by making the finals. "But again, its not the end of the world if it doesnt come off tomorrow. There is worse things, so Im just giving it my best, and if I dont play well enough on the day, then thats that, really." The low amateur at the 2013 British Open, Fitzpatrick fell behind by two after four holes but turned it around with a 30-foot birdie putt on the sixth hole, tied it when he chipped in from 25 feet on No. 8 and then added another birdie on the 10th hole to take the lead. "I think that was sort of a bit of a turning point," he said. "Those three holes were the big change, really." Fitzpatrick took a 2-up lead into the 166-yard, par-3 16th hole, but he landed in the bunker while Conners put his drive about two feet from the pin and made birdie. Down one on the 17th tee, Conners drove into the same bunker that Vardon found during the playoff against Ouimet in the 1913 U.S. Open. His approach was short of the green, and the next shot was within a foot or two. But Fitzpatrick reached the front of the green -- about where Justin Leonard was in the 1999 Ryder Cup -- and made birdie to end the match. "He rolled in his 25 foot putt up tthe hill, which I was kind of expecting from what hed done all throughout the day," Conners said. Walker Buehler Jersey. "Any time he was in a difficult place where he had little chance of getting it close, he hit an unbelievable little flop shot or pitch shot and played right beside the hole. When your opponent does that ... it kind of deflates the tires a little bit." Fitzpatrick, 18, has already committed to Northwestern, where he will be a freshman this fall, taking some pressure off this week as he waited the results of his "A-levels" back home. Now he can focus on Goss, a 19-year-old Australian who reached the quarterfinals last year. Goss, who plays college golf at Tennessee, won the 2012 Western Australia Amateur. "Im trying to be as calm as possible, and Ive got a big day ahead of me tomorrow," he said. "It hasnt sunk in yet, all the things that come along with being a finalist like playing in the Masters and the U.S. Open. Im definitely trying to keep as calm as possible, but it definitely hasnt sunk in, and I dont think it will for at least a couple of days." Goss and Watt, regular playing partners in Australia, were all square through 10 holes before Goss took the lead on No. 11. Watt, who was the co-medallist in the stroke play portion of the tournament, lipped out on an eagle putt on No. 14 and settled for a birdie, but Goss made a 30-footer to halve the hole and held on for the win. "It really looked like I was going to be going even with four holes to play, and to sink that putt was just unbelievable," said Goss, who was scheduled to throw out the first pitch at the Red Sox game on Saturday with Fitzpatrick. "I dont know if I could do it again if I had 100 balls. But just to sink that putt was definitely a game-changer, and definitely had a huge advantage because I went to the next tee full of confidence." For Watt, it had the opposite effect. "Whatever I did really well, he kind of did a little bit better," he said. "But Im right there, and Im really happy with myself. It doesnt feel like a loss to me because Ive had such a great experience in the States, and I take a lot out of it."
