SPRINGFIELD, N.J. -- Until a couple weeks ago, Rich Beem didnt know if he was going to play at the PGA Championship.Good thing he did.Beem shot a 69 in his opening round Thursday, his first sub-70 score in a major since 2006. The 45-year-old followed with a 71 Friday to make cut for the first time in the PGA Championship since 2012.Not bad for a guy who has played only one tournament -- the PGA Championship -- in each of the last two years.Beem took to Twitter on Friday afternoon to share his excitement: Holy crap I made the cut!!! Thanks for all tweets, sorry I cant reply to them all!!! Cheers!Saturday, Beem had four bogeys and two birdies for a 72. He was at 3 over for the tournament, no chance of winning, but assured his first tournament check since 2013.Just dont look for any comeback.As fun as this has been, this is the most golf Ive played in a very long time and by the time we are done for tomorrow, it will be like, `Thank you. That was awesome. Im done now. But Im hoping to go out there and put my best foot forward, Beem said.Battling tendinitis in his right shoulder, the 2002 PGA Champion said he was unsure if the pain would affect his swing at Baltusrol, and he didnt want to go out and hit a driver 260 yards when Rory McIlroy is hitting 360.No thanks. Ive got better things to do with my time, he said.But his shoulder felt better over the last few weeks, good enough for Beem to tee it up.I came up here a week ago and was able to hit golf balls and play 18 holes without it hurting so that was a good sign, he said.A full-time golf analyst for Sky Sports in Britain and very part-time golfer, Beem was given only five golf shirts from his sponsor, Horseshoe Bay in Texas. He didnt exactly know how to take it.I think they were thinking I would wear the first on Wednesday, Im going to go with that one, but no, I would have run out of shirts, Beem said. I had to do laundry on Thursday night. My wife did it for me and I just washed a few extra.Working as a television analyst even while competing, Beem was planning on wearing his Sky Sports shirts for the weekend, not his normal golf shirts, but he isnt one to complain. After his early round on Saturday, Beem was off to his full-time job to follow the leaders in the afternoon.Its nice to put the other shirts on for a little bit and now I have to go put the other ones on and go out to work again, Beem said after his Saturday round.Beems 69 in the first round topped that of Jordan Spieth, Phil Mickelson, Bubba Watson and Zach Johnson. That didnt last, and Beem wasnt surprised. This was all about sticking around for four days.To shoot 69 the first day was amazing but I think overall making the cut was even better, Beem said. Its been awesome. You get out here and this is what you want to do, even if you dont play golf full-time like I did.Beem has made it to the weekend round at the PGA Championship three times since his 2002 win.The former cellphone and car stereo salesman pulled a stunner in 2002 at Hazeltine when he beat Tiger Woods by one shot. Woods finished with four straight birdies, but the cheers didnt rattle Beem. He rolled in a 35-foot birdie putt on No. 16 and held his nerve to the end.He has a lifetime exemption to play in the PGA, and the only year he missed was in 2010 because of a back injury. For the last two years, its the only tournament he plays.It never enters my mind that I am taking somebody elses spot because its not their spot, its my spot, Beem said. Ive earned the right to play here every single year and thats my right, and Ill keep playing in it until I feel like Im not competitive anymore. Pavel Bure Jersey .

Quietly, which is a relative term when it comes to the affable shortstop, Reyes is doing his rehab. Come game time, Reyes is his vocal self as he roots on his teammates from his dugout perch. "Im anxious to come back," Reyes, adorned in a sleeveless Superman t-shirt, told TSN.ca. "We havent played the level that everybody was expecting. This team is better than the record shows. We need to turn it around as soon as possible because our division is not easy at all. Its hard to gain ground. Like I said I just want to be there, Im going to continue to work hard every day doing my rehab from eight oclock in the morning from the time I work out, my rehab." The recovery from a badly sprained left ankle is tedious; it happens in baby steps. For two weeks, Reyes was in a cast, followed by two more weeks in a walking boot. The time was spent at his New York home. He rejoined the club last week and on Friday, unencumbered by any type of ankle bracing, he began light sprints. Reyes expects to begin taking batting practice and ground balls on Monday or Tuesday. These "baseball activities," as theyre called, are another step toward recovery but shouldnt be misconstrued as a fast-tracking of the rehab process. "The key is going to be running, you know, the bases and stuff like that because you can take a ground ball right in front of you and you feel good," said Reyes. "You can take BP and you feel good but when it comes to running and jumping around in a real game its a different story." Theres no timeline for Reyes return to game action, which will begin with a minor league rehab assignment. Until then, hell remain with the club under the watchful eyes of head trainer George Poulis and strength coach Bryan King. His presence is appreciated, particularly by the younger Dominican-born players. "Theyre good impressions for me to play with a guy like that,&quuot; said reliever Esmil Rogers.dddddddddddd. "Hes so happy to play the game and to come to the stadium with the same attitude. They show me it doesnt matter what day youve got, every day is a new day." Reyes admits to injury-related boredom. Hes always moving, always invested. He watches the games closely and offers teammates insight on pitchers tendencies and other trends while keeping the dugout loose. "Thats the way it is. When Im not playing I dont know what to do. Its kind of crazy for me," said Reyes. "Some guys, they dont want me in the dugout, they want me playing in the field because they say Im messing around too much. Thats the way I am, nobody is going to change that for me. I like to enjoy, I like to be around my teammates. Thats why Im going to continue to do my rehab with the ballclub because I want to be here." Reyes was off to a hot start. In 10 games, he was hitting .395/.465/.526 and was successful in each of his five stolen base attempts. In a disappointing season in which the fan base is looking for reasons to be optimistic, Reyes return is one of them. He wants to rein in the expectations. "People have to understand this is going to be a process because Ive been away from baseball for a little while," said Reyes. "Everything is not coming right away. Like I said Ill do everything to bring my talent to the field and help this ballclub. Hopefully it wont take that long. Hopefully when I come out, I come out ready to go and people can see the real Jose Reyes." ROGERS LIKELY TO START WEDNESDAY Reliever Esmil Rogers, who pitched the final three innings of Friday nights 10-6 Blue Jays loss to Baltimore, is expected to start Wednesday nights game in Atlanta. Rogers threw a full bullpen session on Sunday morning and told TSN.ca he wasnt available for the series finale against the Orioles and likely wouldnt be available for Mondays and Tuesdays games versus the Braves. If Rogers gets the ball on Wednesday he would become the 11th different starting pitcher for the Blue Jays this season. ' ' '
