· GOLF: In Indian Wells, Calif., K.J. Choi holed an 11-foot birdie putt worth $270,000 on the 18th hole to win the 26th Skins Game with $415,000.
· SOCCER: Chelsea lost ground in the Premier League title race after being upset 2-1 by Arsenal, enabling defending champion Manchester United to close the gap to five points with a 1-0 victory over Manchester City.
Meanwhile, Manchester United Manager Alex Ferguson is backtracking on retirement plans again. Ferguson, 66, who had previously announced that the 2001-02 season was his last, said he is again having second thoughts.
· CYCLING: With the first training camp of his comeback set to start, Lance Armstrong guaranteed the drug-testing program he arranged with the United States' top anti-doping expert will be in place by the time he rides in his first official race in January. The seven-time Tour de France winner starts training with his new team today without having subjected himself to drug tests by Don Catlin, the expert he teamed with, and with no deal in place to post results of those tests online.
"It's a tough thing to organize, but we will make it happen," Armstrong said. "All the stuff we said we were going to do will happen."
