KAVARNA, Bulgaria -- Graeme McDowell won the Volvo World Match Play Championship on Sunday, beating Thailands Thongchai Jaidee 2 and 1 in the final at Thracian Cliffs. McDowell won a year after losing the final to Belgiums Nicolas Colsaerts at Finca Cortesin in Spain. The 2010 U.S. Open champion fought back from 2 down after four holes, pulled ahead of his 43-year-old opponent on the 14th hole and secured the victory at the 17th. "Its been a nice day and nice to receive a great trophy," McDowell said. "We have talked all week about the prestige of this event and how many great champions have won this tournament, and its just nice to add my name to that list of legends." McDowell, also the PGA Tours RBC Heritage winner last month in Hilton Head, S.C., will move to top of the European Tour money list and up one place to No. 7 on the world ranking. "I thought when Thongchai went 2 up after four holes that this wasnt the script I had read," McDowell said. "But then after winning the seventh and managing to halve nine and 10, I felt good. I felt like I was starting to get in control and I sensed Thongchai was weakening, and I just sensed an opening and I just seized that opening." In the morning semifinals, McDowell beat South Africas Branden Grace 3 and 2, and Thongchai defeated South Africas Thomas Aiken 3 and 2. "I am very happy and had a very good week," Thongchai said. "I made only one mistake in the final on the 14th hole after a poor drive. But it was a good tournament for me. My game is very solid. I came here of course to win, and to come second I am very proud and satisfied as it is a good result for me. "I did get very tired this afternoon, but more importantly I enjoyed the tournament."

WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. -- There havent been any quick fixes for Danny Manning at Wake Forest.Bringing the Demon Deacons out of the Atlantic Coast Conferences lower tier has been a slow, deliberate, multiyear process -- and more struggles could come this year with a young, talented core.After that, though, the future certainly looks bright.Were a work in progress, Manning said.Gone are program stalwarts Devin Thomas and Codi Miller-McIntyre. The current teams only fourth-year senior on scholarship used to be a walk-on, and eight of the 13 scholarship players are either freshmen or sophomores.And with the exception of a graduate transfer, everybody figures to be back in 2017-18 -- giving the Demon Deacons essentially a two-year window to win with this current crew of players.We like the skill set. We like the talent level, Manning said. Were young, but when youre building, thats how you have to build. ... We think were going to have a chance to do some really big, really special things this year.Wake Forest returns three starters from a team that went 11-20 last season and won just two ACC games -- and the Demon Deacons need each of them to take a step forward.Guard Bryant Crawford needs to be a little bit more calculated with his sometimes reckless decisions, Manning said.

And Dinos Mitoglou, whos also bulked up, needs to hit the glass harder, Manning said.Some things to know about the 2016-17 Demon Deacons:---BETTER SHOOTERS: Manning says this is the best shooting team weve had in 3 years, without question. He says there are at least six players who are capable of making a shot, whereas in the past he could only rely on Wilbekin and Mitoglou.

Arians started all 33 games last season for the Panthers and hit 186 3-pointers during his three-season career. Woods sat out last season after transferring from Charlotte and led Conference USA by hitting 46 percent of his 3s as a freshman in 2014-15.BIG MEN ON CAMPUS: Manning, a former No. 1 pick in the NBA draft, knows low-post basketball and this Wake Forest team has some significant size.
