GOLF

PGA: In a final round at the Arnold Palmer Invitational that featured some of the toughest scoring conditions in four decades, Scottie Scheffler made key putts to save two unlikely pars and closed with an even-par 72 for a one-shot victory in Orlando, Florida.

The scoring average was 75.48, by a fraction lower than it was a year ago. Only 10 players finished the tournament under par.

Billy Horschel was the last player with a shot at catching Scheffler with a 30-foot birdie putt on the last hole that never really had a chance. Horschel shot 75 and tied for second along with Tyrrell Hatton (69) and Viktor Hovland (74).

• Needing to win or finish solo second to retain PGA Tour status, Ryan Brehm ran away with the Puerto Rico Open for his first tour title.

Brehm, 35, birdied five of the first 11 holes at windy Grand Reserve and beat Max McGreevy by six strokes. He shot a 5-under 67 to finish at 20-under 268.

LPGA: World No. 1 Jin Young Ko birdied the 18th hole for a 6-under 66 to win the LPGA Tour’s HSBC Women’s World Championship in Singapore by two strokes over fellow South Korean player In Gee Chun and Australian Minjee Lee.

Ko has won six times in her last 10 starts, and her round set the LPGA Tour’s all-time record for most consecutive rounds in the 60s (15) and most consecutive sub-par rounds (30).

She finished with a 72-hole total of 17-under 271.

Lee shot 63 for the best round of the day, while Chun, who led by a stroke after the third round, shot 69.

CHAMPIONS TOUR: Retief Goosen holed out for eagle from a greenside bunker on the short par-4 first hole, birdied the next two and cruised to an 8-under 63 and a four-stroke victory in the Hoag Classic at Newport Beach, California.

A stroke behind fellow South African star Ernie Els entering the round, Goosen pulled away quickly at Newport Beach Country Club in breezy but calmer conditions than the players faced Saturday. Goosen finished at 15-under 198.

K.J. Choi was second after a 66.

EUROPEAN TOUR: Ashun Wu of China closed with a 6-under 65 as he turned a four-shot deficit into a four-shot victory in the Magical Kenya Open.

Wu finished at 16-under 268.

Thriston Lawrence of South Africa (66), Hurly Long of Germany (66) and Aaron Cockerill of Canada (67) tied for second.

SKIING

WORLD CUP: Mikaela Shiffrin stretched her lead in the overall standings by finishing fourth in a giant slalom in Lenzerheide, Switzerland, after closest rival Petra Vlhova failed to finish the first run.

Shiffrin seemed to ski more cautiously in the second run, after being second-fastest in the first leg, and ended 0.77 seconds behind winner Tessa Worley.

Worley finished 0.29 ahead of Federica Brignone. Olympic champion Sara Hector let her first-run lead slip and wound up 0.31 behind Worley.

Shiffrin built her lead to 117 points with six events left in the next two weeks.

• Aleksander Aamodt Kilde pleased his Norwegian home crowd by winning a super-G in Kvitfjell, Norway, to lock up the season discipline title with a race to spare.

The Olympic bronze medalist mastered a downhill-like, fast course set in sunny conditions to edge James Crawford of Canada by 0.07 seconds.

Olympic super-G champion Matthias Mayer of Austria was 0.12 behind in third.

SOCCER

MEXICO: Mexico’s top-division league suspended all matches scheduled for Sunday after a huge brawl among fans during the previous day’s match between host Queretaro and Atlas from Guadalajara, the reigning league champion.

The match was suspended in the 62nd minute after multiple fights broke out in the stands. Security personnel opened the gates to the field so that fans, including women and children, could escape the stands.

Queretaro state authorities said 23 remained hospitalized. Ten were in serious condition and three others were in critical condition with very severe injuries.

ENGLAND: Kevin De Bruyne and Riyad Mahrez both scored twice to allow Manchester City to outclass Manchester United for the second time this season, 4-1.

City restored a six-point lead over Liverpool at the top of the Premier League over Liverpool. United dropped to fifth place behind Arsenal, which won 3-2 at Watford and has played three fewer games than United.

ITALY: AC Milan took a crucial step toward a first Serie A title in more than a decade as it won 1-0 at Napoli, one of its main rivals.

Veteran forward Olivier Giroud scored the only goal to send Milan back to the top of the Italian league.

Milan, which last won the league in 2011, is two points ahead of defending champion Inter Milan – which has played one match less – and three ahead of Napoli in third.

Juventus is seven points behind and kept its slim title hopes alive by beating Spezia, 1-0.

TENNIS

LYON OPEN: Ukrainian refugee Dayana Yastremska took Zhang Shuai of China to three sets in the final before losing, 3-6, 6-3, 6-4.

Yastremska, 21, fled her home in war-torn Odessa, Ukraine, last week following the Russian invasion. She spent two nights sheltering in an underground car park from missile strikes before escaping with her 15-year-old sister, Ivanna, through Romania while their parents stayed behind in Odessa.

AUTO RACING

FORMULA ONE: The relationship between Haas F1 and its Russian sponsor and driver became untenable following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, the owner of the United States-based Formula One team said.

Gene Haas also said his team was financially stable despite the decision Saturday to cut ties with Russian driver Nikita Mazepin and sponsor Uralkali. The Russian fertilizer company is owned by Mazepin’s father, Dmitry Mazepin, a close ally of Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Haas said reserve driver Pietro Fittipaldi will fill Mazepin’s seat at the season-opening race in Bahrain on March 20, but he wasn’t clear about a permanent replacement.
