Mickelson, whose eagle putt settled on the edge of the hole

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. - A year after changing their offence, the New York Giants are remoulding their defence.The Giants on Wednesday fired defensive co-ordinator Perry Fewell and defensive backs coach Pete Giunta after the unit finished among the worst in the league.Giants coach Tom Coughlin announced the moves on Wednesday, a little more than a week after the Giants (6-10) missed the playoffs for the third straight season.These are two outstanding men and outstanding football coaches, Coughlin said. It is very hard in this business to find people that are not only good football coaches but outstanding human beings who are trustworthy, loyal and honest. Perry and Peter are all that.This will be the second straight season the Giants have changed a co-ordinator. Kevin Gilbride retired after the 2013 season and Ben McAdoo, a Packers assistant, was hired to replace him. The offence picked up this past season with Eli Manning cutting down on his interceptions and rookie receiver Odell Beckham Jr. providing a big-play element.The unit finished 10th in the league. The defence was ranked 29th overall, struggling against the run and being burned too many for big plays in the pass game.Fewell had been the Giants defensive co-ordinator since 2010 and was at the helm when the Giants defence played a major role in their Super Bowl victory over Tom Brady and the New England Patriots in February 2012.Giunta had been with the Giants since 2006 and was a part of the Super Bowl wins in 2008 and 12. His secondary was expected to be a strength of the team but it was hit by injuries.No one person is responsible for what happened in this year, Coughlin said. That has to be loud and clear. If there is any one person responsible, it is me. It is not Perry Fewell. It is not Peter Giunta. Both of them are outstanding football coaches in their own way. The simple fact of the matter is in the circumstance that we find ourselves, change is necessary. That may not be the most eloquent way of saying it, but that is what I am confronted with. The hope always is invigoration.The defence played most of the season without middle linebacker Jon Beason and the secondary was hit hard with cornerbacks Prince Amukamara going on injured reserve along with nickel backs Walter Thurmond III and Trumaine McBride. Starting cornerback Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie played with nagging injuries most of the season.Fewell, who was Coughlins secondary coach in Jacksonville from 1998-2002, joined the Giants after a four-year stint with Buffalo, including a span where he served as interim coach the final seven games of his last season.The Giants have not had great ranking with Fewell in charge but the unit was outstanding in the Super Bowl run after the 2011 regular season.Giunta worked with the Rams and Chiefs before coming to the Giants.I just think it is an opportunity for us, to a certain extent, to stimulate our defensive team due to the fact that you will end up with a new co-ordinator, Coughlin said. Those people will bring a new system, a new focus and a new area of concentration.Finding a co-ordinator might not be easy for the 68-year-old Coughlin because he also is on the spot and whoever is hired has to know that another season out of the playoffs might end up with the entire staff being fired.There are several interesting candidates to become the defensive co-ordinator, including Steve Spagnuolo, who was the Giants defensive co-ordinator when they won their first Super Bowl under Coughlin. He left to become the Rams coach and is currently with Baltimore as a secondary coach. Roberto Firmino Brazil Jersey .

Final leaderboard The 145th Open The vast crowds at Royal Troon were treated to a masterclass of golf by the leading pair that revived memories of the Duel in the Sun between Tom Watson and Jack Nicklaus a few miles up the Ayrshire coast at Turnberry in 1977, and it was Stenson who prevailed as a major record-equalling 63 gave him a three-shot victory on 20 under par a new record for golfs oldest major. I felt this was my time Henrik Stenson felt his time had come to win a major title Mickelsons stellar 65 would have been more than enough to lift the Claret Jug on most occasions, but he could not quite keep pace with the ice-cool Swede as he birdied four of the final five holes to settle an enthralling battle in what was a fitting finale to the historic first Open on Sky Sports. Henrik Stenson shot a final round 63 to win The Open, his first major championship victory, as he edged out Phil Mickelson in a thrilling final round A measure of the sheer brilliance of the final pair was that JB Holmes won the race for third place - a full 14 shots behind the champion - as the remainder of the field became irrelevant in the hunt for the title. The runaway leaders set the tone for the day over the first four holes, with a two-shot swing at the opener when Stenson three-putted from the front of the green while Mickelson converted an excellent pitch for birdie to reclaim the lead. Stenson took the lead at The Open after a birdie at the world famous eighth hole at Royal Troon But Stenson atoned for his error with a 12-foot putt on the second after Mickelson grazed the edge of the hole with his chip, and the Swede was back in front on the next as he drained another putt from similar range. Record-breaking Stenson Henrik Stenson created Open, and major, history with his phenomenal performance Stenson made it three birdies in a row at the long fourth, but Mickelson went one better as he smote a delightful second to six feet and the eagle putt was never in doubt. Mickelson regained the lead on the front nine, but he could not match Stensons remarkable finish The pair finally exchanged pars at the fifth and both made well-crafted birdies at the long sixth, and after the seventh was halved in par, Stenson edged back in front at the Postage Stamp - backing up a wedge to 12 feet with a perfect putt.dddddddddddd.Both enjoyed cast-iron pars at nine to turn in 32, and their remarkable form continued at the 10th - one of the toughest holes on the course - as Stenson holed from 12 feet for birdie before Mickelson followed him in. Nick Dougherty explains how Mickelson manages to recover from difficult situations on the course time and time again But the intimidating 11th claimed its final victim of the week when Stenson three-putted from the fringe, although he looked set to be gifted back the outright lead when Mickelson got into bother for the second day running after a wayward drive at 12 only to emulate his third-round escape act when he sank a 15-foot putt to salvage a par. Stenson looks back at his round that was the joint-lowest ever at The Open Mickelson came within a whisker of getting the shot back at the next before he found himself trailing again with four to play as Stenson rolled in his longest putt of the day to get to 17 under.The Swedes red-hot putter earned him his eighth birdie of an incredible round at 15 to double his advantage, which he retained with a sublime up-and-down from the fescue grass to the left of the long 16th to match the birdie of Mickelson, whose eagle putt settled on the edge of the hole. Stensons opened the floodgates Butch Harmon believes Henrik Stenson can push on and add to his maiden major title Stenson refused to buckle at the par-three 17th as he sent a towering iron to seven feet and stood aside to watch Mickelson block his to the left of the green, although the 46-year-old kept his slim hopes alive with a nerveless putt for par and Stenson opened the door a little further when his birdie putt lipped out. Stenson almost found one of the deep fairway traps with his final tee shot, but his ball pulled up a few feet short of the trap and he took advantage with another precise blow to the heart of the green.And after Mickelson two-putted from long range for par, Stensons 15-footer for an incredible 10th birdie of the day dropped in the side of the cup and sealed the title of Champion Golfer for the Year, while also making him the first Scandinavian in history win a major title.
