NEW YORK -- An Ecuadorean tourist who stormed a U. Robert Griffin III Elite Jersey .S. Open court in search of an autograph following a match between defending champion Novak Djokovic and Stanislas Wawrinka was arrested, authorities said on Thursday. Damian Proano, of Quito, was awaiting arraignment on Thursday in criminal court on charges of wrongly being on a playing area of a major venue sporting event, Queens District Attorney Richard A. Brown said. Proano raced onto the court in Louis Armstrong Stadium late Wednesday just after the match had ended and while Djokovic, the tournament favourite, and Wawrinka were still there, prosecutors said. He was grabbed by security and was arrested, they said. No information was available on whether Proano had an attorney, and there was no telephone number associated with his address in Quito. Brown said that it was possible Proano, 40, was just an overzealous fan but its important to be cautious, recalling how in 1993 tennis pro Monica Seles was stabbed in the back by a spectator during a match in Hamburg, Germany. "There is no such thing as being too careful," Brown said in a news release. Djokovic was leading 6-4, 6-1, 3-1 when Wawrinka ended the match because of illness. Wawrinka said he had been sick for three days and didnt want to risk worsening his condition before a Swiss Davis Cup match next week. Djokovic advanced to the quarterfinals and was to face Juan Martin del Potro. Brown said the law prohibiting interference with a professional sporting event was passed by the city council in 2003, after Calvin Klein walked out onto the basketball court during a New York Knicks game at Madison Square Garden to speak with player Latrell Sprewell.

Fred Davis Jersey . Russell Westbrook had 19 points to lead the Thunder while Kevin Durant added 13. The Thunder stars played in the first half. Durant shot 5 of 10 from the field, had two 3-pointers and two steals. Westbrook was 6 of 9 from the field and had three assists.SINGAPORE - Thomas Bjorn shot a 5-under 66 to take the lead of the Singapore Open after rain interrupted the first round Thursday. The Dane holed six birdies to take a one-stroke lead over Simon Khan of England, Chinnarat Phadungsil of Thailand and Pablo Martin of Spain. Top-ranked Rory McIlroy was at even par after eight holes when play was halted for the day due to rain and the threat of lightning. Half the field —78 golfers — was still on the course when play was stopped. Theyll resume Friday morning. McIlroy, who had girlfriend Caroline Wozniacki by his side on the course, can emulate Luke Donalds 2011 feat of capturing both European and U.S. PGA Tour money titles in the same season with a strong result in Singapore. The other big names in the field struggled. Three-time champion Adam Scott had three bogeys to go with three birdies to shoot a 71, while Phil Mickelson had a double-bogey and two bogeys on the back nine to hit a 73, one stroke better than Padraig Harrington could manage. Bjorn said he adjusted quickly to the muggy conditions and the newly redesigned Serapong Course at Sentosa Golf Club, which players like Mickelson and Scott have deemed extremely challenging. "I came here and saw the golf course and its set up to be tricky this year," Bjorn said. "Its not the longest golf course in the world, so if you can keep it in the fairway you can produce a score, and I did that very well today. Thats only round one, so well work from here." The 41-year-old Dane is coming off a resurgent 2011 season in which he won three tournaments and finished fourth at the British Open at Royal St. Georges — the scene of one of the biggest disappointments of his career. At the 2003 British Open, Bjorn was leading by three strokes with four holes to play when his game completely unraveled. He needed three shots to get out of a bunker on the 16th hole and eventually ceded the Claret Jug to Ben Curtis. So far this year, hes been unable to build on last seasonns strong results. Evan Royster Jersey. His best finish is a share of second place at the Wales Open in June. Since then, hes only recorded two top-10 finishes on the European Tour. Another player hoping for a boost in Singapore is Khan. He came out of nowhere to win the BMW PGA Championship in 2010 as the 471st-ranked player in the world, earning a playing exemption on the European Tour through 2015. The 40-year-old Englishman has found limited success since and his previously improved ranking has slipped to No. 443. He pulled out of the second stage of the PGA Qualifying School this week to compete in Singapore. "I would love to play out there (on the PGA Tour) one day. I just feel like my form really in Europe hasnt been as good as I would have liked it to have been," Khan said. "For me, (with) a 7-year-old daughter at school, it gets a little bit more difficult. That was a consideration." Paul Casey of England had a share of fifth with South Koreas Y.E. Yang and Thailands Kwanchai Tannin after rounds of 68. Casey, currently in 83rd place in the European Tour money list, is making a late push to make the top 60 to qualify for the Dubai World Championship. Hes finishing the year strongly, with a fifth-place result at the Perth International and a sixth-place finish at the BMW Masters in Shanghai last month. Edoardo Molinari hit a hole-in-one on the 17th in shooting a 70 — two days after making a rare albatross on the par-5 fourth in a practice round. "It was funny. It does not happen very often to hole two shots like that, but at least today it counted for something," the Italian said. His brother, Francesco Molinari, was 3 over after nine holes when play was halted. Former British Open champion Louis Oosthuizen was 2 over after eight, and John Daly was 1 over after six. The field at the $6 million tournament has been slightly weakened this year with only four of the worlds top-20 golfers playing: McIlroy (1), Scott (6), Oosthuizen (10) and Mickelson (13). ' ' '
