Adelaide are flying towards the finals after two crushing wins over cellar dwellers Essendon and Brisbane, but there is danger in enjoying a soft run into the finals.Having unleashed their attacking arsenal against the hapless Bombers and Lions to win by 82 and 138 points respectively, the Crows sit third on the ladder, just three percentage points behind Sydney and two games behind the Hawks after their most recent win over North Melbourne.On form, they should comfortably win their final three matches - against Fremantle at Domain Stadium, and the Power and Eagles at Adelaide Oval.Should they win all three, theres every chance this attacking powerhouse can secure a top-two finish or even possibly take home the minor premiership.Adelaides clinical ball use in transition ranks them No.1 for disposals per goal (23.6) and as the most prolific side this year, they also have the best percentage of scores once inside their forward 50 (52.8 percent of the time).Of course it a positive to lock away wins and finish as high as possible with good percentage, and thats exactly what theyve been able to do. But to have too many easy games in the run into the finals may not help their premiership cause.Can you peak too early as a football team?You certainly want to be on edge heading into September. As a team, you have to be so ruthless and then bring your absolute best in both effort and execution in the finals. And thats what Don Pyke has been all about, making sure his team puts the foot on the throat of opponents - as seen by their performances against Essendon and Brisbane in the past fortnight.They also took the opportunity to rest Sam Jacobs and Scott Thompson in recent weeks, which is a good thing; but in terms of managing players, its now even more of a balancing act with the post-Round 23 bye in place this year.Theres no doubt Adelaide are playing sensational football but its the evenness in contribution across the ground which makes them so hard to contend with.Unheralded players such as Rory Atkins, Jarryd Lyons, Mitch McGovern and Jake Lever are just a couple of examples of the many Crows who have improved across the season to help their established stars. Of course theyre deadly up forward with great versatility in their mix of agile bigs and electrifying smalls, which means curbing their influence comes down to pressure and supply.One thing Pyke and his coaches must look out for is training standards. They have to be absolutely ruthless on the track and in reviewing games.When a team has won 10 of the past 11 games like the Crows have, the coaches often take the chance to jump on the little things by drilling into the training standards or any signs of selfishness bobbing up in games. They cannot afford to let their mindset and approach to their football slip in any way because that complacency wont stand up under the intensity of finals football.Itll be a fascinating run to the finals and Im really bullish about Adelaides prospects. The way in which they tackle this softer run will play a big part in what they achieve in the real stuff come September.

SAN MARTIN, Calif. -- When Lydia Ko first came to a U.S. Womens Open four years ago, her hands were shaking so much out of nerves. Now with two major titles under her belt by age 19, Ko is able to keep those emotions under control and project a picture of calmness on the golf course.Ko birdied the 18th hole to cap a 2-under 70 in the third round Saturday that put her in the lead at the U.S. Womens Open, bolstering her chance for her third major title in less than a year.I think nerves are good because it means youre excited, Ko said. Youre ready. It means a lot to you. Youve got to be able to control it. But a little bit of nerves is always good. It can end up being a little bit of adrenaline.Whatever Ko is doing is working.She became the youngest woman to win a major last year at the Evian Championship and followed that up by winning the ANA Inspiration this spring. Now shes in contention for her first U.S. Open title after failing to make the top 10 in her first four appearances.Ko has a one-shot lead over 2009 winner Eun Hee Ji and Sung Hyun Park. Brittany Lang and Amy Yang are two shots back at 5 under, and Angela Stanford is in sixth place at 4 under at CordeValle.Im going to just try and enjoy it, just focus on the shot I have in front of me and not think about what everybody else is doing, Ko said. If I think that way, I wont get too carried away with what position I am at certain parts of the final day.Kos week at the Open got off to a somewhat shaky start when she was tied for 52nd after a 73 in the first round in the difficult afternoon conditions.But Ko got into contention with a 66 in the second round and then took sole possession of the lead on the final hole Saturday. Her approach shot spun back about 9 feet from the hole. She calmly sank the putt and then threw her ball into the stands in celebration.Ko is tied for the fewest putts through three rounds. She made two other long birdies Saturday, a 25-foot downhill putt on No. 3 and a long left-to-right swinging putt on No. 13 that she initiallyy thought she had over-read.ddddddddddddThats what I was doing the majority of the day, she said. I said, `Oh, man. And then I was kind of walking a little bit and then I saw the ball drop. So it kind of took me by surprise. So it was a lucky one.Ji has broken par all three rounds with a 69 and 71 in the first two rounds followed by the 2-under performance on Saturday. She is looking for her first LPGA Tour win since winning the Open at Saucon Valley seven years ago.Park, playing her first U.S. Open and second major ever, got off to a solid start with birdies on the sixth and eighth holes to move to 9 under. But fortunes quickly changed at the par-5 ninth when she hit her tee shot into a hazard for a penalty and ended up with a double bogey.Lang birdied 14 and 15 and had the low round of the day at 68 to move to 5 under. Lang tied for second as an amateur in her first U.S. Open back in 2005 but has only gotten in the top five once since then back in 2010.Ive been here before and I think you really have to just get to work on what youre doing, because if you spend a lot of time thinking about where youre going to finish, youre going to drop down pretty quick, Lang said.There are several other golfers lurking close enough to make a push on Sunday. Danielle Kang is at 3 under and fellow Americans Cristie Kerr, Stacy Lewis and Kris Tamulis are among seven golfers five shots back at 2 under.Theres no doubt I have to shoot at least 4 to 6 under, Id say tomorrow to have a chance, Kerr said. It depends on the wind and the weather and the pins. Sometimes they like to set it up easier on Sunday and people get some low scores. I dont know what theyre going to do, but I have to be prepared for anything. If the conditions are easier, I have to be prepared to go low.The highlight of the day might have been Lee Lopezs ace on the 191-yard, par-3 12th hole. Lopez is at even par for the tournament. ' ' '
