Simultaneously self assured and humble, 11-year-old Sabre Norris aspires to go two places higher on an Olympic podium than her bronze medal winning dad Justin and also eclipse one of his less edifying records.Sabre is the youngest surfer to earn a wildcard spot in a major Australian surfing event, after securing a place at the Sydney International Womens Pro, the final Qualifying Series event of the year, starting at Cronulla Beach on Thursday.NSW youngster Norris certainly hasnt been handed any favours in the draw with her first round heat opposition including world No.9 ranked Sage Erickson.The event is being staged and backed by world tour stalwart Sally Fitzgibbons, who is already a mentor to the NSW youngster.I just cant believe out of all the girls in the world, Sally has given me the wildcard to go in to her first event (as a promoter), Norris told AAP.Its a crucial event of the Qualifying Series right now, so I cant believe shes been this nice to give one now, I hope I can make her proud.Norris, who started surfing at five, is also an accomplished skateboarder.Both of those sports have been added to the program for the 2020 Tokyo Olympics and Sabre wants to qualify for the Games, like her father did in 2000 and 2004.At the Sydney 2000 Games, Justin Norris shaded a 15-year-old Michael Phelps for third place in the 200m butterfly swimming final.Sabre finds swimming a bit boring, but is already targeting a surfing spot in Tokyo, despite the fact she will only be in her mid-teens.Norris wants to eclipse her fathers Olympic feats inside and outside competition, though the latter is a somewhat dubious distinction.He had a goal to eat 100 chicken nuggets, he ate 97 and vomited, but he still ate the last three, Norris said.I might have to eat really healthy before I try that challenge when Im at the Olympics, so then i dont have to feel too bad about myselfBut I really would like to win a gold medal in the Olympics for surfing and then I can say Ive beaten him in two things.That would be really cool. Marlon Mack Jersey . In the lead up - which seemed to begin the moment Mike Geiger blew the whistle in Houston last Thursday night - the Impact rumour mill went into overdrive. The speculation went into meltdown mode, of the golden nugget variety. Jackson Barton Jersey . Oaklands loss to Seattle clinched the ALs best record for the Red Sox with one day to spare in the regular season. "I think everybody was kind of watching," catcher David Ross said. "Demp (Ryan Dempster) came out before he went to the bullpen and was just yelling that they lost. http://www.cheapcoltsjerseysauthentic.com/?tag=authentic-cole-hedlund-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. Evan Boehm Jersey . Artturi Lehkonen, Joni Nikko and Ville Leskinen had the other goals for Finland (1-0) while Juuse Saros stopped 28 shots. Tim Robin Johnsgard had the lone goal for Norway (0-2). Grover Stewart Jersey . If ever they start actually putting pictures beside words in the dictionary, the Blue Jays left-handers mug will appear beside “Consistency. CINCINNATI -- Don Mattingly doesnt want anyone feeling sorry for the Miami Marlins. Yes, the Marlins are likely to be without Home Run Derby champion Giancarlos Stanton for the rest of the season after the slugger suffered a Grade 3 groin strain this past weekend, but that doesnt mean hopes for the franchises first postseason berth since the World Series championship season of 2003 are kaput.The Marlins are 2-0 without Stanton and will be seeking to make it three in a row (and four games straight overall) when they face former teammate Anthony DeSclafani Tuesday night in the second game of a four-game series against the Cincinnati Reds at Great American Ball Park. The Reds acquired DeSclafani in a December 2014 trade that sent pitcher Mat Latos to the Marlins.DeSclafani won his first six decisions after starting the season on the disabled list with a strained left oblique. He suffered his first loss of the season in his last outing when he gave up three runs on six hits in five innings in a 3-2 loss at St. Louis. Hes walked five batters in his last 11 innings after walking just seven in his previous 52 2/3 innings.Im in the midst of trying to get a better feel and get back on a better roll, said DeSclafani. Ive been walking some guys and Im trying to get back to filling up the strike zone and throwing better quality pitches. I feel as if I havent done that as of late.DeSclafani has faced the Marlins once since the trade, taking the loss in a 5-0 defeat at GABP last season. He allowed three runs on four hits in five innings in that game.Mattingly announced late Monday night that right-hander Jose Urena will be recalled from Triple-A New Orleans to start Tuesday against the Reds. Urena is 1/3 in 19 appearances (three starts) for the Marlins this season. The loss of Adam Conley to the disabled list has left a spot open in the Marlins rotation.Mattingly said he has faith in the team as it is made up now even without Stanton, who has 25 home runs and 70 RBI. The Marlins are tied with St. Louis for the second National League wild-card spot.ddddddddddddYou just want to move forward with your club because you dont have time to look back and go Ohhhh, were not going to be as good, said Mattingly. I dont say this in a negative way about Giancarlo because in the past I think when youd read about the Marlins it was Giancarlo and all of these little guys with him. Now, weve got a lot of good players here. Its really an insult to the rest of them to think we cant do anything without Giancarlo.Left fielder Christian Yelich and third baseman Martin Prado each have 40 multi-hit games to lead the team. Prado has driven in 20 runs since July 27. Center fielder Marcell Ozuna has been struggling over his last 15 games (9-for-55) but he has doubled and homered in the last two games after going 11 straight games without an extra-base hit.Its not too much pressure because we know we have the ability to play this game, said Ozuna. We have a lot of young guys here, a lot of guys with talent and we have fun out there. Thats the most important part to winning more games.The Reds sat shortstop Zack Cozart and second baseman Brandon Phillips in Mondays (6-3) loss to the Marlins. For Cozart, who did pinch hit in the ninth inning and drew a walk, it was a scheduled day off but Phillips was dealing with a knee contusion suffered on a recent road trip.Center fielder Billy Hamilton was banged up against the Marlins Monday night. He twice ran into the wall in the outfield; he took extra bases away from Ozuna in the first inning but c
