OAKVILLE, Ontario -- Dustin Johnson started and finished the day tied with Luke List for the Canadian Open lead.The U.S. Open champion had to make up a lot of ground to do it.Johnson had a double bogey and two bogeys on his first holes Friday in windy conditions at sun-baked Glen Abbey. He rebounded with six birdies and had a late bogey in a 1-under 71.I really dont know what happened the first four holes, Johnson said. Just got off to a bad start. Hit it in a couple awkward spots. Made some bad bogeys, but fought back and turned it around and felt like I played really nicely from 14 on in.Johnson played in the morning after eagling the par-5 18th late Thursday afternoon for a 66.The wind today almost feels like its a little bit heavier and its affecting the ball a little bit more, and its a little bit different direction, Johnson said. Youve just got to take advantage of the downwind holes and the into-the-wind holes, just try to get looks.List also shot a 71, birdieing the par-5 16th and 18th after making three bogeys in a four-hole stretch early on the back nine.Real happy the way I finished up, said List, winless on the PGA Tour. It was kind of a battle the middle of the round there and definitely pleased with the way I finished on the two easy par 5s.Canadian amateur Jared du Toit, former Arizona State teammate Jon Rahm and Kelly Kraft were a stroke back, also each shooting 71.Du Toit made the turn tied for the lead at 7 under, then had a triple-bogey 8 on No. 2 and a bogey on No. 5. The Sun Devils senior birdied the next three holes and closed with a par.Taking an 8 always hurts, but I just kind of stayed patient, said du Toit, from Kimberley, British Columbia. The putter heated up at the right time, and it was all good. Nothing but good things to say.Rahm is making his fourth start since turning pro after the U.S. Open. The Spaniard eagled the 16th hole.Its so cool. Its a great feeling, Rahm said about du Toit. Last time we played together and last time we were both on the leaderboard, it was still a college event. Hes still in college. But to see it like that, its a great feeling. I have got to say, him shooting low yesterday did motivate me a lot to do a good round.Kraft closed with a bogey.I played pretty solid. I didnt make many putts, Kraft said. Felt like I gave four shots away there at the end with a double on 14 and then a bogey on 18.Ricky Barnes (68), Ben Crane (70), Tyler Aldridge (70) and Brendon de Jonge (71) were 5 under.Top-ranked defending champion Jason Day was 1 over, following his opening 69 with a 76.The day was pretty tough in itself and then I really didnt have anything going well, Day said. Off the tee, was terrible. Hitting the greens, terrible. Chipping was terrible and putting was terrible. So put all that together, you shoot 4 over.Du Toit was one of four Canadians to make the cut. Adam Hadwin (70) was tied for 21st at 2 under, amateur Garrett Rank (75) was tied for 36th at even par, and Corey Conners (71) was tied for 62nd at 2 over.Pat Fletcher, born in England, was the last Canadian winner in 1954 at Point Grey in Vancouver, British Columbia. Carl Keffer is the only Canadian-born champion, winning in 1909 and 1914. Albert Murray, a Canadian also born in England, won in 1908 and 1913.Canadian Olympic players Graham De Laet and David Hearn missed the cut. DeLaet shot 77-72 and Hearn had rounds of 74 and 75.Its obviously disappointing but its another golf tournament, and Im able to kind of get over it a little bit easier now than I used to be probably, said DeLaet, who will represent Canada along with David Hearn in the Rio Olympics. Obviously, I wanted to play well here this week, but theres more tournaments to play. Sheldrick Redwine Womens Jersey . Now tied for second in the league in shootout goals, the 24-year-old likes to see what the opposing goaltender has in store before he ultimately lands on a move. Odell Beckham Jr Jersey . The (11-11-4) Jets are seventh in the Central Division with 26 points. Fifth place Dallas and sixth-seeded Nashville also have 26 points, but the Stars have three games in hand on Winnipeg while Nashville has two. http://www.footballbrownsnflprostore.com/Youth-Bernie-Kosar-Elite-Jersey/ . McPhee said that Ovechkins father Mikhail is in stable condition after having the surgery this week and is no longer in intensive care. "Weve told him to stay as long as necessary with your dad," he said. Ovechkin and his Russian national team were eliminated from the mens hockey tournament in Sochi on Wednesday with a 3-1 quarter-final loss to Finland. Austin Seibert Jersey . Fellow centre Pavel Datsyuk remains out because of a concussion. Zetterberg has 11 goals and 19 assists for a team-high 30 points, and Datsyuk has a team-high 12 goals and 11 assists. Odell Beckham Jr Browns Jersey . -- Matt Ryan needed one of the best games of his career to lead the Falcons and their depleted offence out of their three-game losing streak last week. Mitchell Starcs leg wound is still open. He will require a special knee pad to be able to dive in the field. And he is more than 10 days behind where he would prefer to be in preparation for the first Test of the summer, against South Africa in Perth - the match all Cricket Australias intricate preparatory plans are meant to be geared for.Thats the challenging scenario for the man who has swiftly become Australias most valuable cricketing asset. His pace and swing are capable of unpicking the lock to a South African batting line-up that toyed with Steven Smiths team on the recent ODI tour in Starcs absence.For that reason, there is no question of Starc missing out on a match that will set the tone for the home season, and a series against opponents who will test the resolve of the hosts to perform in familiar climes after humiliations in Sri Lanka and South Africa. The training-inflicted gash to the leg that Starc is still recovering from mirrors the sense that this is an Australian side yet to take complete form after 2015s raft of retirements.Its still open, clean it every day, put a patch on it and away you go, Starc said of his left leg. Its still a little bit opened, so its probably going to take a couple of weeks [to heal]. Its not bleeding, its healing nicely. Its all clean. I think when I started bowling and running again it just sort of stretched the skin a little bit. Its not a bad thing, it needed to stretch anyway. But it probably just delayed the healing a little bit.[Without the injury] I would have obviously played a couple of Matador games and played the full Shield game as well. So Im probably - hard to say, probably a week or week-and-a-half behind where I would have liked to be. Being in a brace for four weeks - I couldnt sweat on the wound, so I couldnt run or do all of the gym sessions I wanted to do. So I was a fair bit behind at the start and tried to catch up at the end.Im still a little bit behind where I would have liked but it hasnt cost me any cricket for Australia so Im ready to go.Echoing the views of the CA chief executive James Sutherland on the need to prioritise some series above others, Starc said he would be prepared to push through pain and even a re-opening of the wound in order to bowl the kinds of spells his captain requires. That being said, it is hard to imagine Starc being used as anything other than a high-speed battering ram in three to five-over spells after the fashion of Mitchell Johnson.Im happy to bowl long spells, its going to be up to Steve, Starc said. Im prepared to play the Test match and perform any role I need to. Obviously thats initially to bowl as fast as I can and try to attack the South Africans. Its not going to be an issue for me to bowl longer spells, its just how Smithy sees my role on the day, and the conditions, the wicket and the other guys in the team.I guess in the longer sccheme of things it hasnt been that long a break.dddddddddddd Obviously coming off two months of cricket in Sri Lanka - its not like Ive come off six months of nothing. It is a little bit behind, but I was a lot happier with how I finished the Shield game the other night after 19 overs. A couple more days of preparation this week and Ill be ready to go full tilt.While South Africas batting coach Neil McKenzie has had a bit to say about the visitors not fearing any members of the Australian line-up, Starc said he knew there would always be some trepidation among opponents about facing him. Easy for him to say that, sitting behind the desk, Starc quipped. Im happy for him to face me.Hes entitled to his opinions. Its a lot easier making comments like that when you dont have to face anything. He just throws the whanger down at his batsmen and sits back and watches. Look, well all be trying to crank it up. Ill be trying to bowl as fast as I can and Josh can still hit over 140s, Joey [Mennie] bowls a heavier ball than you think and can hurry up a lot of batsmen. He probably bowls a lot quicker than people think.Sidds is coming back into some pace as well. Weve got plenty of firepower. Just because theyve got Dale Steyn - I know hes an outstanding bowler, hes taken 400-plus Test wickets - [but] just because youve got him and [Kagiso] Rabada bowling fast it doesnt mean we dont have anyone to match that.One of the ironies of Starcs current physical impediment is that he may actually be in his best ever shape to play all six Tests, against South Africa and Pakistan, this summer. Until December last year, when he finally submitted to surgery on foot and ankle problems, Starc had suffered from ankle bone spurs. A full season is chief among his goals.Id love to play a whole summer for a change, whether it be through rotation or injury or bad form I havent managed to do that yet, Starc said. So I think I just put that on myself really, to be there for all six Tests and bowling well enough to be selected for all of those Test matches along with the one-day games this summer.I think thats part of it as well - being there for a little bit of time now with Josh. We probably take it on ourselves to - along with Pete coming back into the squad after his back - its probably important for the three of us especially to I guess lead the attack. I think we do that really well together.Theres not really one leader, we just sort of run off the back of each other and have done for a while. Wed all love to play every Test match this summer, along with the Indian series. Without talking too much about it, we probably put that on ourselves.Should Starc play six Tests, Australia will be hard to stop. This week may be the highest hurdle to that goal. ' ' '
