took advantage of Rypiens pitch shot into the water, winning with a two-putt par

Ronny Deila has urged Celtic supporters to show his successor a united front ahead of his final match in charge. The Norwegian will say his goodbyes to fans following Sundays Premiership title party as they play Motherwell at Celtic Park, live on Sky Sports 2. The 40-year-old is standing down after leading the Hoops to back-to-back league titles but leaves behind a club at odds with their own supporters who are unhappy with chief executive Peter Lawwell and the recent downsizing of their spending ambitions. However, at his final pre-match news conference, Deila insisted it is important the fans put their differences to one side and give the man taking over the backing he will need to stave off the challenge coming next season from the likes of Aberdeen, Hearts and Rangers, back in the top division after a four-season absence.Asked what message he had for the supporters, Deila said: First Id want to thank all the fans. Its been two fantastic years and the relationship I had with them was very good.I wish them all the best in the future. This club is special and they need to understand how special it is and protect it, because everybody now wants to drag it down. They want us to lose.Its important we have unity. The players, the staff, the new manager coming - they need time and support. If they do that people will grow and they will get the best out of them and there will be a lot more trophies here at Celtic. Celtic lost to arch rivals Rangers in the Scottish Cup semi-final Deila has just one final piece of silverware to hoist aloft at Celtic Park on Sunday, however. His failure to lead his side into the Champions League badly undermined his tenure in Glasgow, with last months Scottish Cup semi-final defeat to Rangers ultimately leading to his exit. But while the former Stromsgodset boss, who confirmed he will fly back to Norway on Sunday evening, knows his reign will have divided opinions, he insists he was right to take on the challenge.What you remember is the trophies in the end, he said. They are what go down in the history books. Celtic celebrate winning the title after beating Aberdeen Some will think I was a great guy who did everything I could and had some success. Others will think I was a complete disaster and should have done better. But thats why this is the greatest sport in the world. Its full of opinions.Sunday will be a little bit sad but at the same time it is a good feeling. It is difficult to say what Im feeling. I need time to reflect on what I have been through these last two years before I can really express what I feel.But it will be strange on Monday when I dont have anything to go to. I havent had that for 20 years. Ive been in this game for so long. Ive never had the summers off so now is the first time. But I think the best thing is to have a little bit of time off now and to reflect on what Ive been through, recharge the batteries and then really get that hungry look again. Reaction from both camps after Celtic lost 2-1 to St Johnstone in the Scottish Premiership. However, if something very interesting comes along that feels right for me then of course it is possible to do it. But I have to have time to find the right one.It has to be something that excites me. It was like that when I came to Celtic. There was no thought in my head saying I could not do it. I will never regret that decision. Also See: Celtic slip up at St Johnstone ONeill calm over Celtic link Gordon: Keane hard but fair Collins confirms Celtic exit NMD R2 Australia .

They finished regulation at Edgewood Tahoe Golf Course tied at 67 in the modified Stableford format that awards graduated points for pars or better. On the par-5 18th hole in the playoff, they had matching pars and birdies on the first two extra holes. Tolliver then took advantage of Rypiens pitch shot into the water, winning with a two-putt par from 25 feet. "Im not sure how we got into a playoff," said Tolliver, also won the winner in 1996, 2005 and 2010. "I have never been in a playoff like this before. I cant feel my hands right now. "I guess I played the sympathy card long enough with Rypiien that he finally let me have it.dddddddddddd I feel bad for Mark because he hit that bad shot at the end. No one wants to win that way." Rypien had a chance to win in regulation, but his 15-foot birdie putt missed to the left. He won the inaugural event in 1990 and has been second each of the past two years. "That hole has my number," Rypien said about No. 18. Former pitcher Mark Mulder was third with 66 points, and Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry tied for fourth with former NFL quarterback Chris Chandler at 64. "I think I showed Ive got what it takes to win here," said Curry, the second-round leader. "Obviously, it takes a lot to win. A lot has to go right. The more I play, the more comfortable I get. Its a great environment to play golf in." ' ' '
