England have received further recognition for a glory-laden 2016 after Owen Farrell, Billy Vunipola and Maro Itoje were included on World Rugbys six-strong shortlist for player of the year.The winner will be announced in London on Sunday night amid an unprecedented level of English interest in the prestigious awards that could see Itoje also crowned breakthrough player of the year, an achievement that would complete a unique double for the 22-year-old lock.Eddie Jones had already been announced as a contender for coach of the year, while Englands Grand Slam triumph and 3-0 series whitewash of Australia see them compete for team of the year.Completing the list of nominees for player of the year published on Monday afternoon are Ireland number eight Jamie Heaslip, who started Saturdays historic 40-29 victory over New Zealand in Chicago, and All Blacks Dane Coles and Beauden Barrett.Itoje, Vunipola and Farrell have played starring roles in England amassing a 10-Test winning run, nine of them falling under the guidance of Jones, and all three were also involved in Saracens march to a European and Aviva Premiership double last season.The last and only time an Englishman won the award was Jonny Wilkinson in 2003.It is testament to the current strength of the mens and womens 15s game that there was so much competition for these prestigious awards, World Rugby chairman Bill Beaumont said.There is class in abundance with New Zealands Barrett and Coles, Englands Vunipola, Itoje and Farrell and Irelands Heaslip. There is also a great mix of experienced, proven campaigners and exciting young talent.England received more pleasing news on Monday in the form of a positive update on Courtney Lawes knee injury.Lawes was a late withdrawal from two Northampton matches last month due to bruising on the joint and had been given until Tuesday to prove his fitness for Saturdays clash with South Africa at Twickenham.But the 27-year-olds recovery has progressed well and he is set to resume his World Cup second partnership alongside Joe Launchbury in the injury-enforced absence of Maro Itoje and George Kruis.Courtney has taken part in training this morning (Monday) and will take part in training this afternoon so we expect him to be fit, defence coach Paul Gustard said.Mako Vunipola arrived at last weeks training camp in Portugal with a hip problem but that has also been resolved and England have a fully-fit 34-man squad to select from for the Springboks.Mako has been training too. Were in a good state of health and ready to continue our preparations for South Africa, Vunipola said.England will name their matchday 23 to face the Springboks on Tuesday night when those members of the 34-strong squad not required for Twickenham will be sent back to their clubs.The biggest area of uncertainty is at openside where Nathan Hughes, Teimana Harrison and Tom Wood are competing to start, while on the wings Semesa Rokoduguni and Jonny May are favourites to line up in the Old Mutual Wealth series opener. Rajon Rondo Jersey . The FA rejected Wilsheres appeal that the length of his punishment was "clearly excessive" and said Thursday his suspension begins with immediate effect. He will miss league matches against Chelsea on Monday and West Ham on Dec. Lakers Jerseys From China . "I wrote 36 on my sheet at the beginning of the game," the Cincinnati coach said, referring the yard line the ball would need to be snapped from. http://www.cheaplakersjerseyschina.com/javale-mcgee-jersey/ . -- Devin Hester is done returning kicks in Chicago. Lakers Jerseys Outlet . -- If Henry Burris has his way, he will be the starting quarterback to lead the Hamilton Tiger-Cats back to the Grey Cup next year. Anthony Davis Jersey . Clarkson had been dealing with an elbow injury in early January and will be out of action for at least one week. He has three goals and five assists through 36 games with the Leafs this season.Rory McIlroy was encouraged by a promising display with a new putting technique at the WGC-Cadillac Championship, although was left frustrated by a disappointing finish to his round. The world No 3 made a bright start in his first appearance since switching to the crosshanded method he hasnt used competitively in many years, but missed a number of birdie chances over the closing stretch and double-bogeyed the last on his way to a one-under 71.McIlroy changed his technique after struggling on the greens during the early part of the season and missing the cut at last weeks Honda Classic, with the four-time major champion vowing to stick with the method regardless of this weeks result at Doral. McIlroy made a solid start with four birdies along his front nine Putting with his left hand below his right on the grip, McIlroy mixed five birdies with two bogeys and one double-bogey on the Blue Monster, but admitted he should have carded a much lower opening round.I felt like I played pretty solid actually, McIlroy said. I made a couple of mistakes, but apart from that I felt ball-striking wise it was a good day.My speed wasnt too good on the greens and I was leaving a lot of putts short. I guess it was to be expected as its the first day competitively with a bit of a new grip, but I felt like it was pretty good.Its always disappointing to end the way I did. I just need to get out there tomorrow and try and pick up those shots quickly again and try to start from there. McIlroy opened his round with a close-range birdie Beginning on the back nine, McIlroy left his eagle putt at the 10th inches short to join Spieth and Day in opening a two-putt birdie.Another two-putt from distance at the next was followed by a gain at the par-five 12th, before the world 3 recovered from dropping a stroke after missing the 13th green to hole a seven-foot birdie two holes later.ddddddddddddAfter taking two attempts from 10 feet at 16, McIlroy rolled in from 14 feet at the next but reached the turn two under after a poor chip from the 18th fringe and a missed par-save. The world No 3 missed a number of opportunities over the closing stretch McIlroy kicked off his second nine by pitching to four feet from the rough and posting a fifth birdie of the day, although missed good opportunities to close the gap on early leader Scott Piercy over the next two holes.A two-putt from 40 feet at the short fourth was followed by two more close-range pars over five and six, before McIlroy failed to convert a 12-footer at the seventh after an impressive approach.The Northern Irishman bit his putter in frustration after misjudging a lengthy eagle opportunity at the eighth and carding a three-putt par, before finding the water off the ninth tee and running up a double-bogey. I was giving myself plenty of chances hitting a few fairways and a lot of greens, McIlroy added. Probably took a couple of my opportunities, but not a whole lot.The good stuffs in there, its just a matter of not hitting shots like the one I hit on nine. I just over did it. Maybe leaned on it a little bit too much and maybe being a little bit overly aggressive after making a par on the eighth hole.So its all these little things. Its tiny margins and when youre playing well and youre sharp and youre really on your game, you dont make those mistakes. Right now, Im struggling with that part of the game and I just need to tidy it up.Watch the WGC-Cadillac Championship live throughout the week on Sky Sports 4 - your home of golf.
