ORLANDO, Fla. -- ??? The ACC is moving its 2016 football championship to Orlandos Camping World Stadium.The conference made the announcement Thursday about the Dec. 3 game.Orlando emerged as a possible location after the ACC joined other sports leagues in pulling out of North Carolina amid backlash over controversial state House Bill 2.The law requires transgender people to use restrooms at schools and government buildings corresponding to the sex on their birth certificates. It also excludes gender identity and sexual orientation from local and statewide antidiscrimination protections.The ACC Championship Game had been scheduled for Charlottes Bank of America Stadium, where it had been held since 2010. The announcement came 15 days after the conference decided to pull 10 neutral-site championships from North Carolina. That decision came days after the NCAA said it would relocate its championship events from the state.This will be the sixth time the league holds its title game in Florida, having played it in Jacksonville from 2005-07 and in Tampa in 2008 and 09.Charlotte had been a convenient, successful host the past six years, drawing an average crowd of nearly 70,000. With four ACC teams in the Top 25 -- No. 3 Louisville, No. 5 Clemson, No. 12 Florida State and No. 14 Miami -- this years matchup figures to be worthy of its prime-time slot on either ESPN or ABC.Duke coach David Cutcliffe, whose Blue Devils played in the 2013 championship game in Charlotte, called that city an incredible location.Its sad for me that its moved out of a venue that we were fortunate enough to play in once so far, but no question that the state of Floridas got a lot of ACC fans, Cutcliffe said. Were an East Coast conference, so I think it still represents our conference well.Details were scarce about the process by which the ACC selected its new title-game location, with Commissioner John Swofford saying in announcing the move from North Carolina that the league had reached out in a small way to potential hosts but acknowledging there were probably limited possibilities without identifying them.Orlando immediately emerged as an obvious choice.The city annually hosts two bowl games with ACC ties -- the Citrus and Russell Athletic bowls have agreements to take its teams -- and this year an opening game between Mississippi and Florida State was played at the 65,000-seat stadium formerly known as the Florida Citrus Bowl.The only problem was, the Florida High School Athletic Association had booked Orlandos stadium for some of its championships that weekend, but the FHSAA announced it would push those back until the following weekend to free up the venue for the ACC. Orlando has played host to the high school championships since 2007.Being able to keep this tradition alive and add another major sporting event is a win-win for our community, Mayor Buddy Dyer said.The league has not announced the new sites for the other championships it pulled from North Carolina, including womens basketball in March and baseball in May.

RIO DE JANEIRO -- The head of the Rio de Janeiro Olympics says the worlds top four male golfers have withdrawn from the games because there is no money to be won -- not because of the Zika virus.They tried to blame Zika, but the media have shown that they are not coming because theres no prize money, Rio organizing committee President Carlos Nuzman said Saturday, speaking with the games set to open in just under three weeks.Jordan Spieth withdrew this week from the Olympics, citing Zika. He joined Jason Day, Dustin Johnson, and Rory McIlroy in also saying Zika was the main reason for skipping the first Olympic golf tournament in 112 years.Their absence could be a setback for golfs future in the Olympics.

Nobody can walk a step without a camera filming it.Nuzman also said he expected Rios suspended drug-testing lab to be ready when the games open Aug. 5. He expected the World Anti-Doping Agency to give its approval in a few days.The suspension has been an embarrassment for local organizers and a headache for the International Olympic Committee, which could be forced to send blood and urine samples abroad for testing if the lab remains closed.---SNTV producer Filipe de Almeida contributed to this report.---Stephen Wade on Twitter: http://twitter.com/StephenWadeAP .His work can be found at http://bigstory.ap.org/content/stephen-wade ' ' '
