Martin Kaymer celebrated with his girlfriend after winning Wanamaker Trophy



A Golfer from German Martin Kaymer won the PGA Championship at Whistling Straits Sunday after defeating Bubba Watson in a three-hole playoff. The famously ornate Wanamaker Trophy that Kaymer won was easily overshadowed by his trophy girlfriend. Allison Micheletti!

Everyone may know about Martin Kaymer. Alison Micheletti works as Sports Information?Marketing Assistant at Wagner college at her current job. Her past jobs are writing assistant at Immaculata University, Athletic Department assistant/statistician at Immaculata University and intern at NFL Films. Regardless Allison Micheletti is Martin Kaymer girlfriend.

Latest news about Martin Kaymer Girlfriend updates, Martin Kaymer. Golf should not be quite so difficult from now on, not after he led the Abu Dhabi Golf Championship from start to finish to profer himself towards the Europe Ryder Cup team and become the youngest tour winner from Germany (younger by 14 days than incomparable Bernhard Langer was at the time of his first victory).

Though Kaymer's advantage was down to two strokes for some of the last nine holes, he had a birdie on the 72nd to finish on 15 under par, four strokes ahead of Lee Westwood and Hendrik Stenson, two Ryder Cup veterans.

Carlos Santana injures left leg

The left leg of Cleveland Indians rookie catcher Carlos Santana, one of the top prospects in baseball, collapsed at a freakish angle when Red Sox rookie Ryan Kalish slid into him attempting to score in the seventh inning Monday night.

Catcher Carlos Santana will undergo an MRI on his left knee in Cleveland on Tuesday after he was involved in a violent collision at home plate in the Indians' 6-5 victory over the Red Sox on Monday night at Fenway Park. Shin-Soo Choo threw a strike to home plate, where Santana had his left leg extended to block the dish. Kalish plowed into Santana's left leg and was tagged out, and both players went sprawling around home plate. It's part of the game. It's part of the game.

That the Indians are choosing to send Santana home for additional tests would suggest they still have questions as to whether his knee is damaged. But Kalish said he spoke by telephone to Santana, who was in the trainers' room in the visiting clubhouse after the game, and that Santana spoke optimistically about his condition. "I've already talked to him and he's doing a lot better than they thought," Kalish said.

Kalish was attempting to score on a single to right field by a third rookie, pinch hitter Daniel Nava, when he slid full-bore into Santana's left leg, which was planted to block the plate as he took a strong throw from right fielder Shin-Soo Choo. Kalish watched from the dugout as all eight of Santana's teammates on the field gathered around him while doctors and trainers worked on him. Several of Kalish's teammates, including Kevin Youkilis, spoke with the shaken player.

Promoted to Triple-A Columbus, Santana was batting .316 with 13 home runs and 51 RBIs in 57 games when he was promoted to the Indians on June 11. Santana wears No. 41 for the Indians in tribute to his idol, former Cleveland catcher Victor Martinez, who is now with Boston and was among the onlookers Monday night.

Maradona Out as Argentina's National Soccer Coach



Diego Maradona's tenure as Argentina coach ended yesterday when the country’s soccer association decided against renewing his contract because he wasn’t prepared to accept changes to his staff.

The federation had offered Maradona a four-year contract to continue through the 2014 World Cup. But Maradona said he would stay only if his entire staff remained. That was unacceptable to Julio Grondona, president of the Argentine Football Association. Grondona had asked for several assistants to be replaced. The federation’s executive committee sided with Grondona.

According to a report on ESPN Soccernet, Maradona's replacement could come from either Estudiantes head coach Alejandro Sabella, Racing Club's Miguel Angel Russo or Sergio Batista, who coaches Argentina's U-20 club.
