SPORTS BRIEFING WORLD CUP SKIING Swiss skier Beat Feuz wins 2nd Kitzbühel downhill in 3 days — For the second time in three days, Beat Feuz tri- umphed in a race that he had unsuccessfully tried to win for a decade. The Swiss skier won this weekend’s second men’s World Cup downhill on the Streif course Sunday, repeating his victory from two days earlier. The back-to-back wins came after Feuz, who first raced here in 2010, finished runner-up in the traditional race four times in the past five seasons. “It’s very special. Two wins in Kitzbühel this week, that’s incredible, and an incredibly nice feeling,” Feuz said. No Swiss skier had won Austria’s signature ski race since Didier Cuche earned the last of his five victories here in 2012. Sunday’s race was interrupted for a few minutes because of flat light as low clouds moved in just before Feuz was set to start. Gut-Behrami wins tricky World Cup super-G on home course — Lara Gut-Behrami mastered a tricky World Cup super-G on Sunday where several top racers were caught out at two jumps. On a picture postcard 27 degree day in the Swiss Alps, home favorite Gut-Behrami finished 0.93 seconds faster than Tamara Tippler. Federica Brignone, the defend- ing overall World Cup champion, was 1.02 back in third. Five of the top 20 highest-ranked starters skied out or were dis- qualified, including Sofia Goggia who won downhills on the Mont Lachaux slope the previous two days. Gut-Behrami now has 14 of her 28 career World Cup wins in super-G, which demands speed, technical skills and an ability to improvise through unfamiliar gates. Unlike in downhill, racers do not train on the exact course-setting. GOLF Si Woo Kim holds off Cantlay to win The American Express — Si Woo Kim birdied two of the final three holes to finish a rock-solid, 8-under 64, coolly rallying past late- charging Patrick Cantlay by one shot to win The American Express on Sunday for his third PGA Tour victory. Kim began the final round with a share of the lead as he attempted to win for the first time since the 2017 Players Championship. The 25-year-old South Korean didn’t flinch when Cantlay shot a 61 and surged out of 13th place to the front while breaking the Stadium Course record by two strokes.

NFC Korda rallies to beat Kang in playoff at LPGA opener Continued from A5 — For Jessica Korda, the Diamond Resorts Tournament of Champions was all about her ability to just hang in there. Trail- ing by three shots headed to the back nine at Four Seasons Golf and Sports Club Orlando on Sunday, she first caught Danielle Kang with a late four-birdie burst to shoot 5-under 66, then won with a curling 30-footer for birdie on the first playoff hole. Kang shot 68. The leader after each of the first three rounds, she had a chance to extend the playoff, but missed her 18-foot birdie putt. It was the sixth LPGA victory for the 27-year-old Korda, her last one coming nearly three years ago. Rodgers went 33 of 48 for 346 yards with three touch- downs and one interception, but fell to 1-4 in conference championship games as a starting quarterback. It’s been quite a ride for Brady and the Bucs. Brady moved to Tampa as a free agent and brought star tight end Rob Gronkowski out of retirement to join him. But with limited practice time with his new teammates because of coronavirus protocols, the Bucs didn’t get rolling until af- ter their bye week. — Bulletin wire reports Beavs Continued from A5 Oregon, which had three games postponed last week due to COVID-19 issues in the program, played with- out leading scorer Chris Du- arte and top rebounder LJ Figueroa, who both tested positive. Oregon also is with- out starting guard Will Rich- ardson, who has yet to play due to a thumb injury, and center N’Faly Dante, who is out for the year with a knee injury. “They were missing two big pieces so we know it is going to be a different team the next time we face them,” Tinkle said. “We could have laid an egg thinking this game was going to be an easier game, but I am happy with our guys for staying focused and humble.” BIG PICTURE Oregon State: After los- ing 98-64 at home to Ari- zona last week, the Beavers have rebounded with three straight wins to move above .500 in conference play. Or- egon State sits in seventh place in the Pac-12, but just one game out of fourth. “We have come a long way these past three games,” Thomp- son said. “From the start of the season where we were losing close games or getting up in games and not being able to finish out, this team has matured and come a long way.” Oregon: The Ducks had just eight scholarship players available. They hope to get Duarte and Figueroa back when they go on a three- game trip to Los Angeles next week. AFC Continued from A5 The Chiefs will face a famil- iar foe — Tom Brady — and the NFC champ Buccaneers in two weeks in Tampa, Florida. “It was just trusting each other. The best thing about this team is we believe in each other,” said Mahomes, who was also dealing with a toe in- jury. “But the job’s not finished. We’re going to Tampa; we’re trying to run it back.” Kelce finished with 13 catches for 118 yards and two touchdowns, and Hill added nine catches for 172 yards, be- coming the first duo in NFL SCORES Sunday’s Games EAST Albany (NY) 83, New Hampshire 64 American 81, Loyola (Md.) 79, 3OT Army 87, Navy 78, OT Boston U. 64, Lafayette 61 Coppin St. 81, Norfolk St. 77 Davidson 69, UMass 60 Hofstra 74, Towson 69 James Madison 79, Northeastern 72 Lehigh 82, Holy Cross 74 Morgan St. 99, Delaware St. 83 Rhode Island 52, Fordham 42 Stony Brook 56, NJIT 44 SOUTH Delaware 67, UNC-Wilmington 62 Gardner-Webb 74, Charleston Southern 62 High Point 81, Presbyterian 57 Memphis 80, East Carolina 53 Notre Dame 73, Miami 59 UNC-Asheville 76, Radford 68, OT W.

Tampa Bay took command in the middle portion of the game. Green Bay trailed 14-10 and had the ball just before half- time until Sean Murphy-Bun- ting picked off Rodgers at the Tampa Bay 49-yard line with 28 seconds remaining. After converting a fourth-and-4, Tampa Bay was at Green Bay’s 39 with 8 seconds remaining. The Bucs passed up a long field-goal attempt, and Brady found Scotty Miller down the left sideline for a 39-yard touchdown catch with just 1 second remaining. “We didn’t come here to not take chances to win the game,” Arians said. “Love the play we had. Got a great matchup and got a TD. That was huge.” The Bucs built a 28-10 lead early in the third quarter thanks to Brady’s three touch- down passes. Brady went 20 of 36 for 280 yards. The Packers got the ball to start the second half, and Aaron Jones caught a short third-down pass. He took a huge hit from Jordan White- head that knocked the ball loose. Devin White recovered and ran 21 yards to the Green Bay 8. One play later, Brady found a wide-open Cameron Brate SUCCESS DURING A PANDEMIC The Buccaneers are the third Tampa team to play for a championship during the pan- demic. The Lightning won the Stanley Cup in 2020, and the Rays lost to the Dodgers in the World Series. history with consecutive games of at least 100 yards receiving each in a single postseason. Clyde Edwards-Helaire and Darrel Williams added short TD runs for the Chiefs, who will try to become the eighth franchise and first team since the Brady-led New England Patriots in 2003 and ‘04 to de- fend the Lombardi Trophy. Allen, who had his worst game of the season in a Week 6 loss to the Chiefs, again strug- gled against the blitzing Kan- sas City defense. He finished with 287 yards passing with two touchdowns and an inter- ception, but a big chunk of his numbers came as the Bills tried to rally from a 38-15 deficit in the final minutes. Their frustration boiled over with 3:19 to go, when Allen was getting sacked by Tanoh Kpas- sagnon. Alex Okafor finished off the tackle, and Allen pitched the ball in his face in resent- ment. Offensive linemen Jon Feliciano and Dion Dawkins rushed in and leveled Okafor, resulting in a flood of offsetting personal foul penalties. It capped a bitter loss for the Bills, who had reached their first AFC title game since beat- ing Kansas City at home on Jan. 1, 1994. They had won 11 of 12 since their loss to the Chiefs earlier this season — in fact, they hadn’t trailed in the second half since Week 8 — and were riding a wave of con- fidence that this might finally be their championship year. Instead, after finally con- quering the Patriots in the AFC East, the Bills have a new roadblock to the Super Bowl. The Chiefs actually spotted the Bills a 9-0 lead, thanks in large part to Mecole Hardman’s muffed punt inside their 5 that gifted Buffalo a touchdown. But the reigning champs were hardly rattled; the Chiefs, after all, rallied from double-digits in each of their postseason wins last season, including their Su- per Bowl triumph.
