Ryan Moore is in a pretty good place heading into this weeks CIMB Classic.Over the past month, he finished second at the Tour Championship, losing to Rory McIlroy in an epic playoff, and followed that by winning the deciding match for the United States at the Ryder Cup.This week he returns to Malaysia to compete on a TPC Kuala Lumpur course where he already owns two wins, so there is no question his confidence is at an all-time high.Golf is all about confidence, and the better you play, you just keep getting more and more of it, Moore said. It makes you feel good, especially coming to a course that Ive had success on and I feel good on to begin with.Moore is part of a strong 78-player field that includes defending champion Justin Thomas, major champions Adam Scott, Keegan Bradley, Ernie Els and Vijay Singh, along with Ryder Cuppers Sergio Garcia and Patrick Reed. Hideki Matsuyama is coming off a three-shot win at the Japan Open.The field also includes Brendan Steele, who won the season-opening Safeway Open last week in Napa, Calif., and Englands Paul Casey, who finished third. Steele tied for third at last years CIMB Classic. Casey has finished no worse than fourth in his last four PGA Tour starts.Thomas earned his first PGA Tour title in Malaysia last year when he birdied three of the final four holes to set a tournament record at 26 under par. That included a second-round, 11-under 61. Thomas went on to finish eighth in the FedExCup standings and almost make the Ryder Cup team.Ill take 26 under right now if I could every time we play, Thomas said. You never know what can happen. Its a place where someone can really get rolling and go two or three days and shoot some really, really low scores.Conditions are typically good for low scores in Kuala Lumpur. The course is short (6,985 yards, par 72), the fairways are large, and there is very little rough. The result has been a putting contest.The scoring was quite a bit lower (last year), and that was because there wasnt any rough, Moore said. That is where the difference in scoring happened last year. It looks like its going to be, again, very similar to that, so well probably see a little better scoring again this year.Moore has seen the scores drop. He won the tournament in 2013 by shooting 14 under. He won in 2014 by shooting 17 under.Then I shot 17 under last year to lose by nine, he said. Thats a big difference, and the rough is that difference. It was really long and really difficult to hit out of those first two years. In the last couple years, its just not punishing.Points scored during the tournament, which became an official PGA Tour event four years ago, count toward the FedExCup standings.

The Longhorns (14-4, 3-2) got their biggest win of the season with their third in the row in the Big 12. SEATTLE -- One day after an ill-advised bunt attempt in a losing effort, Jose Altuve returned to what he does best.Altuve homered among his four hits and drove in three runs, Collin McHugh escaped a pair of bases-loaded jams to pitch six scoreless innings, and the Houston Astros beat the Seattle Mariners 8-1 on Sunday.Altuve, who bunted on his own with the tying run on second and none out in the ninth inning of Saturdays 1-0 loss, had a two-run homer and three singles in five at-bats to raise his American League-leading average to .346. McHugh (6-6) allowed four hits and walked four, striking out 10 to win for the first time in eight starts since his last victory on May 30.Today I went there and I wasnt thinking about bunting, Altuve said. I was thinking about hitting the ball, driving the ball. I felt really good at the plate today, I feel really happy that we won the game.Carlos Gomez added his second career grand slam in the seventh inning off Nathan Karns to put the Astros up 8-0.Kyle Seager singled home Seattles only run in the eighth off Chris Devenski.Mike Montgomery (3-4), making his second start this season after 30 relief appearances, allowed four runs and seven hits in five innings, walking two and striking out seven.Altuve had the green light on a 3-0 pitch in the third and delivered his 15th homer to follow Marwin Gonzalezs leadoff double, putting Houston up 3-0.He pretty much has a green light at life, Astros manager A.J. Hinch said. Stealing, hitting 3-0, hitting 0-0, hes a very gifted player, but he works at it. Hes fun to be around.The Astros made it 4-0 in the fifth when Gonzalez again doubled to open the inning, took third on a throwing error by center fielder Leonys Martin, and scored on Altuves single to left.The Astros hustled across an unearned run in the first. Gonzalez reached on a fielders choice and Altuve singled. Gonzalez stole third and continued around on an error by third baseman Seager, who misplayed the throw from catcher Jesus Sucre.The Mariners, who have lost six of their last seven against the Astros, committed four errors, walked four and left 10 runners on.Thats the worst game weve played all year, Mariners manager Scott Servais said. Messed up six or seven plays in the field today. We played a terrible ball game. Theres no way you can sugarcoat that.McHugh escaped a pair of basses-loaded situations without allowing a run.ddddddddddddn the first, Seagers one-out drive to right with the bases loaded barely hooked foul. Seager then struck out and Dae-Ho Lee bounced back to the mound.In the third, the Mariners loaded the bases with no outs on a walk to Leonys Martin, a pop single by Robinson Cano on an overturned call and Nelson Cruzs single to the base of the wall in right-center. McHugh struck out Seager and then enticed Lee into an inning-ending double-play bouncer to second.I started sweating a little bit more when I was out there and I saw that ball, you start to give it the whole body lean a little bit, McHugh said of Seagers long foul. That could have changed the game, could have broken the game wide open.ALTUVE MISSES FIFTH HITAltuve, who struck out in his final at-bat, has 17 four-hit games in his career, but never a five-hit game. The elusive fifth hit is hard for him, Hinch said, Its a funny thing to say, because the first four arent very easy for anybody but Altuve.UPON FURTHER REVIEWWith nobody out in the third, Astros shortstop Carlos Correa dropped Canos pop up while reaching across the foul line behind third base while looking back into the sun. The Mariners challenged and the call was overturned after a review estimated at 2:08, giving Cano a single to put runners at first and second.TRAINERS ROOM:Astros: SS Correa was hit by a pitch in the seventh. He stayed in the game but was replaced by pinch-hitter A.J Reed in the eighth. Correas fine. I took him out because I wanted Reed to get an at-bat and steal a couple innings of rest for him, Hinch said.Mariners: SS Ketel Marte and OF Nelson Cruz both returned to the lineup after missing Saturdays game. Marte injured his ankle Friday night and Cruz fouled a ball off the top of his left foot.UP NEXTAstros: RHP Mike Fiers (6-3, 4.35 ERA) opens the three-game series at Oakland. Fiers allowed four earned in runs in 3 1/3 innings with a no-decision in his last start prior to the All-Star break, but he has not lost in seven starts since May 27.Mariners: LHP Wade LeBlanc (1-0, 3.52 ERA) makes his fourth start since being acquired in a trade with Toronto to open a three-game series at home against the White Sox.
