(UPI) -- Phil Mickelson used a 4-under-par 68 Saturday to join Bill Haas atop the leaderboard after three rounds of the Farmers Insurance Open at Torrey Pines. Mickelson put himself on track for his first win of 2011 season with his performance, in which he fired five birdies and a bogey on the South Course to move to 12-under 204. Mickelson has won 25 of the last 33 tournaments in which he has held at least a share of the lead after 54 holes. Haas, meanwhile, blew a chance to retain sole possession of the lead when he missed a 4-foot par putt at on the 18th. He stumbled to a 1-under 71 with after entering with two-shot advantage. Hunter Mahan and Bubba Watson were knotted for third place at minus-11 after both eagled the par-five 18th. Tiger Woods, making his 2011 PGA debut, couldn't parlay his past successes at Torrey Woods into a good round Saturday, shooting a 2-over 74 to finish eight shots back at 4-under 212.

(UPI) -- Team Staal defeated Team Lidstrom 33-22 Saturday in the NHL SuperSkills Competition and Boston's Zdeno Chara repeated as the league's hardest shot champ. Team Staal took a sizable lead in the second event thanks to Alex Ovechkin of the Washington Capitals, who earned his third straight win in the Breakaway Challenge with a trick shot in which he dribbled the puck down the ice with the knob of his stick. Team Staal lengthened its lead with a win by Vancouver's Daniel Sedin in the accuracy shooting competition. But it was Chara who stole the show by breaking his own record in the hardest shot competition for Team Staal, with a blast of 105.9 mph, breaking his 2009 record of 105.4 mph. Copyright 2011 by United Press International | | Tennis Djokovic wins second Australia Open title MELBOURNE (UPI) -- Novak Djokovic, behind an attack that gave him seven service breaks, defeated Andy Murray in straight sets Sunday and won the title at the Australian Open. Djokovic broke Murray's serve in the Scot's final service game of each set for a 6-4, 6-2, 6-3 victory and his second Grand Slam title. Djokovic's other major championship was also in Melbourne when he beat Jo-Wilfried Tsonga in 2008. It was the third Grand Slam final loss for Murray, who was beaten in the 2008 U.S. open championship match and last year in Melbourne by Roger Federer also in straight sets. Djokovic got Federer out of Murray's way in the semifinals and Murray, who had won his last three matches against Djokovic, had to enter Sunday's match confident. Djokovic, however, set the tone for the match by winning the first game at love and then forcing Murray to battle through a 16-point second game just to even the set. Murray managed to stay on serve until the 10th game when Djokovic got the first break of the match and a one-set lead. Djokovic increased the pressure in the second set by winning the first five games. Murray finally held serve after three consecutive breaks and broke back at love but Djokovic recorded his third break of the set and was in control. Every time Murray seemed to start a comeback, Djokovic answered. Murray opened the third set with a break only to drop serve in the second game. Djokovic added two more breaks in the third set, including in the eighth game. Almost fittingly, the match ended with Murray hitting a forehand into the net for his 47th unforced error. Djokovic won 51 percent of the points off Murray's serve and had Murray on the offensive with 18 break-point chances. On serve Djokovic won 67 percent of the points. Djokovic was clearly the best player at this year's Australian Open. He lost only one set -- in a tiebreaker in the second round -- over his seven matches. He collected $2.2 million along with the title. Murray's runner-up check was for $1.1 million. Copyright 2011 by United Press International | Advertisement What Exactly Is "The Lottery Black Book"?
