UPPER ARLINGTON, Ohio -- Miguel Angel Jimenez was back on top on a Saturday, this time in the U.S. Senior Open at difficult Scioto County Club. The 52-year-old Spanish player was looking for a better late Sunday afternoon result after missing chances in his last two events.Jimenez put himself in position to break out of the title funk Saturday, finishing off a 1-under 69 in gusty wind and sheets of rain to take a one-stroke lead. He was in a lot better shape in Scotland and Minnesota in the last two tournaments -- and came up empty.Three weeks ago at Carnoustie in the Senior British Open, Jimenez took a four-stroke lead into the last day, only to shoot 75 and tie for third -- three strokes behind winner Paul Broadhurst. Last week in the 3M Championship, Jimenez was a stroke ahead entering the final round and ended up losing when Joe Durant shot 63 and eagled the first hole of a playoff.Just keep playing golf and give myself patience. Thats the main thing, Jimenez said. Whatever happens, happens. Obviously, at the Open in Scotland, I lost that tournament there without playing bad, and here tomorrow we have to play 18 holes, and whatever happens happens. Just keep focused and enjoy yourself. Thats the main thing.Jimenez won in Mississippi in March for his third career PGA Tour Champions victory. He has 15 regular European Tour victories, the last in the 2014 Spanish Open at a tour-record 50 years, 133 days. And The Mechanic is famous for the quirky, fun-loving ways that have prompted some to call him The Most Interesting Man in the World.Of course, you have to enjoy yourself, and I enjoy myself, Jimenez said. You look at my office, no? Its a great life, no? Thats what I want to do in my life is play golf. I will do what I want to do in my life for a living, and golf is not my job. Its also my hobby. Of course, when I finish here, Im going to have a big fat cigar with a nice glass of wine and enjoy my wife and my family and my people who are here.Jimenez had a 3-under 207 total on Jack Nicklaus boyhood course. Gene Sauers was second after a 71. Ian Woosnam (70), Loren Roberts (70) and senior newcomer Billy Mayfair (75) were tied for third at 1 over.Jimenez was one of just four players who were below par for the day. Three strokes behind Joey Sindelar entering the round, Jimenez had four birdies and three bogeys, with the three bogeys coming in a four-hole stretch. After making two birdies on the front nine, he birdied the 12th, bogeyed 13 and 14, birdie 15, bogeyed 16 and finished with two pars just as sheets of driving rain rolled in on top of the suffocating heat and humidity that has worn down the players all week.The conditions, they are tough today, especially because of the wind, Jimenez said. The greens were softer on the first two rounds, but its the gusting wind there that (makes it) not easy to choose the club, the right club. Sometimes it will go a place that you dont (want) to.Sauers also battled the wind and had four birdies and five bogeys.The heat, the wind, the rain on the last hole -- it was a brutal day, said the 53-year-old Sauers, winless on the senior tour.Sindelar had a 77 to drop into a tie for sixth at 2 over.Golfs hard, the 58-year-old former Ohio State player said. U.S. Opens harder. And I thought for the most part, I was pretty happy with the way I played. It wasnt horrible. Just a couple of uglies, and it played hard out there. Problem is, weve got a pretty good guy out there in the lead and a couple more really good ones right behind him.First-round leader Vijay Singh was 6 over, following his opening 66 with two 75s.

West Coast skipper Shannon Hurn insists theres no need to make mass changes to the clubs list, despite the Eagles AFL finals capitulation.Hurn is adamant the squad has the right mix of players capable of pushing for premiership glory next year.The Eagles bombed out of this years AFL flag race following their shock 47-point loss to the Bulldogs in Thursday nights elimination final at Domain Stadium.West Coast were one of the hottest teams last year during their fairytale run to the grand final, with their defensive structure receiving widespread acclaim.But 2016 was a different story, with the Eagles producing scratchy performances for most of the season before making a swift exit.The nature of the Bulldogs left a host of Eagles players shellshocked and coach Adam Simpson said he couldnt help but feel the season was a waste.But Hurn claims the team doesnt need to make drastic changes in order to contend for the 2017 flag.Instead, improving the fitness and skill set would be a key focus during the summer.I dont think we need to be changing the group, Hurn said.I wouldnt say its (a) wasted (year), because you can always learn something.But certainly as the years pass on, you realise youve got to make the most of your opportunities.If you can play good, team football, thats what wins premierships.One area West Coast will nneed to bolster is the ruck.ddddddddddddWith All-Australian big man Nic Naitanui (knee) set to miss most of next season, the Eagles need to find a mobile ruck/forward to complement Scott Lycett.Greater Western Sydneys Rory Lobb looms as an ideal target.Fremantles Hayden Ballantyne could also be traded to the Eagles after expressing a desire to explore his options elsewhere.The Eagles were heavily criticised for playing a team that was too tall against the Bulldogs.Pinch-hitting ruckman Mitch Brown was included in the side at the expense of Lewis Jetta (calf), while Jonathan Giles and Lycett were the two main ruck options.The trio ended the match with a mere 22 disposals between them, with Lycett clearly troubled by his ongoing left knee injury.But Hurn played down suggestions the team selection played a part in the loss.I dont think it would have mattered if we were tall, small, or in between. We just didnt play good football, Hurn said.Lycett, who has battled a posterior cruciate ligament injury since midway through the season, is set to undergo surgery in the coming weeks.Veteran defender Sam Butler, who at 30 is the second oldest player in the team, is set to receive a new one-year deal.
