...refreshing as they may be, such barbs are a rarity in diplomacy because they're potentially counterproductive. While France had at times previously sought to place itself in a mediating role between the U.S. and Middle East adversaries, Sarkozy's hard line has earned it a whipping-boy role as Tehran retaliates to international criticism...

Grillo was up one stroke on Pollak after the first round (68-69), before the two switched spots (74-73), and then finished the tournament matched at 72. Local boy Max Campion etched a spot for himself on the roster in his debut campaign. The rookie finished in a four-way tie at 64th. Shooting +13, Campion did exactly what his teammates were hoping he’d do. “I think Max is a really good player...
