MORZINE, France -- Dont expect Chris Froome to indulge in big celebrations on the Champs Elysees. Glenn Robinson III Jersey . After effectively securing a third Tour de France title on Saturday, the Kenyan-born British rider has already turned his focus to the Rio de Janeiro Olympics.Froome, a bronze Olympic medalist in the time trial four years ago in London, will once again be among the favorites in the race against the clock in Brazil.Froome even beat specialist Tom Dumoulin in his favorite discipline in Thursdays second time trial.I think its a course (in Rio) that suits me well, theres almost a thousand meters of climbing and its almost 60 kilometers in length, said Froome, who will also compete in the road race in Rio. Its going to be an extremely tough event. I won a bronze medal in the last Olympics in London and it would be absolutely incredible to win another one this year.The 54.5-kilometer (34-mile) mens time trial in Rio, which features four climbs, is on Aug. 10.Froome traveled to Rio during the winter to preview the Olympic circuit and has changed his preparations this year to maintain peak form until the games.Four years ago, Froomes former teammate Bradley Wiggins managed to secure a Tour-Olympics double, triumphing in the London 2012 Games time trial ahead of German Tony Martin and Froome after posting the first British win at the Tour in July.Froomes hopes of victory in Rio have been boosted by Dumoulins injury at the Tour on Friday. The Dutchman pulled out of the Tour after fracturing his wrist and might not recover in time for the Olympics.Froome said he will take some days off to recover before competing in a one-day race in London next weekend.Then its off to Rio.Well be there about a week before the race to start training a bit more again, Froome said. T. J. Leaf Jersey . -- Stanford squashed Oregons national championship hopes again, schooling the Ducks in power football. Micheal Williams Jersey . The 20-year-old Pelicans big man glanced up and smiled widely at the well-wishers -- a fitting end to a day he wont soon forget.

Ryan Riess emerged with the title after a session in which he started behind, but used expert skill to gather the chips to his side amid the unpredictability of no-limit Texas Hold em. Riess put his final opponent Jay Farber all-in with an Ace-King. St Kilda forward Paddy McCartin will spend at least one more week on the sidelines as he recovers from concussion, with the Saints taking a conservative approach with their young star.McCartin was rested from Sundays surprisingly hard-fought win over Essendon after he suffered a concussion - his third of the season - against Gold Coast.The 20-year-old has now suffered five concussions in the past two years, which led to speculation he would not take the field again this season.But he was in the rooms at Etihad Stadium after the win over the Bombers and coach Alan Richardson reported he was tracking well towards a return.If it hadnt been that hed had three knocks, hed probably be pretty close to playing this week, Richardson said.They havent been big knocks ... but just becaause hes had a few knocks, well be pretty conservative. James Edwards Jersey. Hell play footy again this year, theres no doubt about that, were really pleased with the way hes going.I would hope he would perhaps only miss another one, another two max. But once again, that will be up to the medical staff ... whatever they say goes.St Kilda play Melbourne at Etihad Stadium next Sunday and the Western Bulldogs at the same venue the week after.Saints defender Shane Savage was taken from the ground in the final term on Sunday after a heavy collision with Essendon forward Joe Daniher.Richardson said he was dazed but would be fine to take on the Demons next week.
