World No 4 Milos Raonic meets Gael Monfils in Sundays evening session of the World Tour Finals. With Novak Djokovic expected to be the dominant force in the group, a win in their opening group game will set the tone for either Raonic or Monfils to advance to the last four, and a clash between the predictable power of Raonic and the flamboyant showmanship of Monfils should provide entertaining viewing. Ivan Lendl Group Novak Djokovic (Serbia) Milos Raonic (Canada) Gael Monfils (France) Dominic Thiem (Austria) The pair have met three times this year, Raonic has won twice but it was Monfils who got the better of things the last time they met in Canada. The Frenchman prevailed 6-4 6-4 that day, but Raonic was successful at Indian Wells and the Australian Open. Raonic has been a doubt in the build-up to London having withdrawn from his semi-final with Andy Murray in Paris last weekend with a torn quadricep, Tomas Berdych the first alternate remains on stand-by if the Canadian doesnt make it.It has been a memorable year for Raonic but could perhaps have been much more had it not been for injury. Raonic was beaten by Andy Murray in the Wimbledon final World Tour Finals: Profiles We run over the contenders for the title in London The 25-year-old began the year beating Roger Federer to claim the title in Brisbane, and he went on to reach the semi-final of the Australian Open when he led Andy Murray before injury struck to allow the new world No 1 to advance to the final in Melbourne.It was also the Scot who scuppered his chances of adding to his sole title of the year, Murray beating Raonic in the finals at Queens and Wimbledon.His fearsome serve looked like it was returning to its best in Paris last week before the quad problem, and it is his fitness that may hinder his hopes of success against the relentless Monfils, who is making his debut at the season-end event.The supremely-talented Frenchman is now 30 but has never made a Grand Slam final and has failed to deliver on the rich promise he showed as a junior, but this year has represented a breakthrough as he is now up to a career-best six the world rankings. Monfils has risen to a career-best sixth in the world rankings In July, he claimed his first ATP title since 2014 while he has reached the last eight in four of the Masters Series events including the final in Monte Carlo, his first at that level since 2010.Monfils leads the head-to-head between the pair 3-2 but with Djokovic also in the group, and having won every match he has played against the three other men in the group, a win will be crucial to any hopes of success.

I know its common knowledge that all players are responsible for their sticks. We witnessed that when Zack Kassian hit Edmontons Sam Gagner in the face after a missed check. https://www.saintsjerseyssale.com/ . LOUIS -- Heading into the final stretch of the season, the issues for the Chicago Bears banged-up defence only seem to be getting worse. New Orleans Saints Pro Shop . That gave fans outside Joe Louis Arena another chance to ask for autographs from the 19-year-old whose stardom in the NHL has arrived earlier than most expected. New Orleans Saints Shirts .Y. -- The Buffalo Sabres have placed centre Cody Hodgson on injured reserve and recalled two players from their AHL affiliate in Rochester. FRISCO, Texas -- Tony Romo participated in throwing drills at practice Wednesday for the first time since the Dallas quarterback broke a bone in his back in a preseason game at Seattle in August.The 36-year-old Romo worked in several individual drills in shorts and a T-shirt with his teammates in full pads. While he almost certainly wont play against Philadelphia on Sunday, its the biggest step in his latest return from injury.The Cowboys (5-1) have won five straight with Dak Prescott, who is set to face fellow rookie starter Carson Wentz of the Eagles.Romo was the third quarterback for each drill behind Prescott and veteran backup Mark Sanchez. Romo appeared to be throwing at full velocity, and also dropped back and threw a few passes on the run. He was listed as a non-participant on the practice report.Before practice, coach Jason Garretts answer was the same it has been for weeks now: Romo is progressing well in his rehab. Garrett made no mention of Romo joining individual drills. Romo wasnt in the locker room when it was open to reporteers.ddddddddddddWell just take it day by day, Garrett said, repeating another familiar refrain. Hes had some good days of rehab though lately.Prescott said Romos work wasnt much different than other practice days, although joining the early throwing sessions was new.Hes looked sharp every time hes out there, Prescott said. Thats a vet that takes care of himself, going to get back healthy. Hes doing all the right things to do that.Garrett has steadfastly declined to address what will happen when Romo is ready to return. The surprising Prescott, a fourth-round pick, is fifth in the NFL in passer rating at 103.9.The Cowboys, who went 1-11 last year when Romo was out with a twice-broken left collarbone, are tied with Minnesota for the best record in the NFC.---Online:AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and AP NFL Twitter feed: http://twitter.com/AP-NFL---Follow Schuyler Dixon on Twitter at https://twitter.com/apschuyler ' ' '
