MELBOURNE, Australia -- Defending champion Adam Scott shot a 5-under 66 Saturday to open a four-stroke lead at the Australian Masters and close in on a second consecutive win Down Under. Blank Jersey . The Masters champion and winner of last weeks Australian PGA has a three-round total of 14-under 199 at Royal Melbourne. "Im in a really good position for tomorrow," Scott said. "I put the ball in play and made a couple of putts for the first time this week." Vijay Singh shot a 63 and was in a four-way tie for second with Australians Matthew Griffin (69), Nick Cullen (69) and Nathan Holman (70). American Matt Kuchar was sixth after a 67, five strokes behind Scott. Singh, 50, is looking for his first tournament win since 2008. This is Scotts first trip back to Australia since winning at Augusta in April. Hell partner Jason Day next week in the World Cup, also at Royal Melbourne, then play the Australian Open at Royal Sydney the week after. Without mentioning a number, Scott says he could improve on Sunday and win twice in a row. "A good score is going to be out there," he said. "Not wasting any shots and taking advantage of the good ones. Vijay must have done something like that today." Singh bogeyed the par-4 ninth, but had three birdies on the back nine to move into contention. He started the day seven strokes behind Scott. He credited a recent switch from a long putter to a conventional one for his strong play Saturday. "The first nine holes were incredible, I thought I could have birdied every hole. I was three under, but the first eight holes I didnt hit anything outside of 10 feet," Singh said. He will play in the final group with Scott, a rare Sunday occurrence for the Fijian veteran who has battled injuries over the past several years. "After 08 I had a couple of operations on my knee so that kind of got me back two years," Singh said. "And then you start to limp and your whole body kind of reacts differently -- I started to have a lot of back aches. But last year it started to get better, and Im much stronger, healthier and happier." Scott said "its been a while" since he and Singh played together. "His game is in great shape," Scott said. "This course doesnt favour anybody. With good playing, theres a good score there." Jarrod Lyle, continuing his comeback from a 20-month layoff due to leukemia, shot 70 Saturday and was at even par. Lyle was diagnosed with leukemia in March 2012 when he was a regular on the PGA Tour. Lyle, who had leukemia for the first time when he was 17, has a medical exemption to return to the PGA Tour when hes ready. After making the cut Friday, he said that might not be until late 2014. Ashley Williams Jersey .com) - Its fair to call Mike McCarthy one of the best coaches in the NFL but its also more than objective to point out that the veteran mentor bookended the Green Bay Packers season with two, truly awful game plans in Seattle. Custom Wales Jerseys .

The two will meet Wednesday night at the Wells Fargo Center. The Sixers losing streak reached 14 Monday night at home against the Portland Trail Blazers. Philly led at the half, but LaMarcus Aldridge took over and the Blazers left with a 114-104 victory. Aldridge and Damian Lillard scored 15 and 10 points, respectively, in the third to help Portland grab an 89-80 advantage. The Blazers outscored Philadelphia by a 39-28 margin in the period. Michael Carter-Williams ended with 24 points and seven rebounds for the Sixers. Henry Sims and Tony Wroten had 22 and 20 points, respectively, for the Sixers, who shot 50 percent from the field, but went 0-for-8 from beyond the arc. The Sixers can tie the 1972-73 team that opened the season with an 0-15 mark. That team more than 40 years ago went on to have the NBAs worst record ever of 9-73. Philly is four losses away from tying the Nets record for worst start. That Nets team went 0-18 to kick off the 2009-10 season.
