RIO DE JANEIRO -- Daniyar Yeleussinov leaves with a more permanent -- and gnarly -- reminder of his Olympic experience than a gold medal.Yeleussinov suffered a cut so deep and so long that it will leave a scar.He outclassed Uzbekistans Shakhram Giyasov on Wednesday and became the fourth straight boxer from Kazakhstan to win the Olympic welterweight gold medal.He never seemed affected by the vicious cut suffered in his semifinal bout that stopped the fight and gave him the win on points. He used some sharp lefts to rattle Giyasov and won by unanimous decision 29-28 on all three scorecards.With only two days between fights, the cut was not fully healed, and opened up briefly in the second round.Yeleussinov fought with a long strip of tape that covered about a 3-inch gash that stretched from above his left eyebrow down to about the bridge of his nose. When he looks in the mirror, hell be reminded of the blood that flowed down his face as well as the gold he won.I was boxing with this cut and I feel double-happy about that, he said.The second-seeded Yeleussinov won all four bouts by unanimous decision.Moroccos Mohammed Rabii and Frances Souleymane Diop Cissokho won bronze medals.The 25-year-old Yeleussinov, who failed to medal at the 2012 London Games, extended the Kazakh dominance in the welterweight division. He said new gyms, well-equipped have played a role in helping him continue the medal run begun by others 12 years ago.Kazakh boxers Serik Sapiyev (London), Bakhyt Sarsekbayev (Beijing) and Bakhtiyar Artayev (Athens) won the last three welterweight gold medals.Its our weight, Yeleussinov said. Its the Kazakh weight. I just proved it again.Cuba won four straight heavyweight golds in the Olympics from 1992-2004, though Felix Savon won three of them.Yeleussinov could join his brother Dauren, a former Olympic fighter, in the United States and become a professional. Yeleussinov spoke with joy about his gold triumph through a translator.But he answered in English when asked if he wanted to turn pro.Right now, I dont know, he said.Giyasov had defeated a London gold medalist during an upset run through the tournament to reach the final. He was a hit with his victory celebrations that mimicked soccer star Cristiano Ronaldo. Giyasov added a dash of flash in the tournament by leaping with his mouth open, and arms wide and legs apart.Yeleussinovs win could help ease the sting of Kazakh boxer Vassiliy Levits controversial defeat in the heavyweight gold medal bout.

NAPLES, Fla. -- By Lydia Kos standards, this is a major slump.She hasnt won in nine starts since mid-July, her best finish being a silver medal at the Rio Olympics. She hasnt been among the top 10 in any of her last five starts and wasnt even in the top 40 in three of those.Despite all that, all the big prizes -- player of the year, money title, scoring title and the yearlong points chase called the Race to the CME Globe -- are well within Kos reach this week. The LPGA Tour season wraps up with the CME Group Tour Championship that starts Thursday, when Ariya Jutanugarn and Ko will basically go head to head for year-end honors.Obviously, Im not coming into this week with the greatest form, said Ko, who won the Globe in its inaugural season in 2014 and retained it last year. But I still feel like its been a season where Im really proud of it. For me to be in this position, to have an opportunity to go for the Globe again -- and all the other things -- its a pretty cool position to be in.Only a win this week would be enough to give Ko her second straight player-of-the-year award; any other result, and that title goes to Jutanugarn. They come in separated by $17,305 in the money standings, and Ko (69.611) enters with a minuscule edge over In Gee Chun (69.632) for the Vare Trophy presented to the player with the lowest scoring average.It would be a pretty special Sunday, Ko said.Its probably going to be anyway, whether thats the case for Ko or someone else. The LPGA got a dream scenario last season, when all the trophies were decided in the final holes on the final day.Such a scene could repeat itself this week, and the LPGA wouldnt mind some final-hour drama.Im not going to be nervous, Jutanugarn said.The points in the CME Globe standings reset for the final week, so Jutanugarn, Ko and Brooke Henderson all truly control their destinies when itt comes to the $1 million bonus that goes to the points champion.ddddddddddddWin this week, and the Globe is hers.Going into this year it was a big goal of mine to be in the top three and give myself a great opportunity in the final event of the year, Henderson said. Im really looking forward to it. I know itll be a tough week, a tough four rounds, but I know if I get off to a fast start and am able to play my game, maybe good things will happen.Jutanugarn turns 21 next week. Still, shes the elder stateswoman among the three who arrived in Naples this week with the most realistic chances of hoisting the CME Globe on Sunday.Im old? she asked.Well, yes, in this example.Ko, who has been the worlds No. 1 player for more than a year and will remain there for the foreseeable future, is 19. Henderson turned 19 in September. Of the nine players with a mathematical chance of finishing atop this years Race to the CME Globe standings, the oldest -- Shanshan Feng -- is all of 27.The average age of the players in that group is 21.9, though this event last year saw a tour veteran prevail.Definitely felt like a walk-off home run, said defending tournament champion Cristie Kerr, who is 39, essentially meaning shes been alive as long as Jutanugarn and Ko combined. Yeah, Ive had great memories since Ive been back walking around kind of remembering some of the shots I hit or how I felt. Ive played pretty well the last couple days, so fingers crossed.DIVOTS: Ko won on the Tiburon course in Naples two years ago, finishing at 10-under 278. Kerrs winning score last year was 271. ... As was the case last year, the three players atop the Globe points standings -- this time, Jutanugarn, Henderson and Ko -- will play together on Thursday. ' ' '
