NAPLES, Fla. -- Ariya Jutanugarn has already decided the first thing she will do if she wins the bonus cash that accompanies the Race to the CME Globe title.Shell take her mom out for a celebratory dinner.Figure on appetizers and dessert being included, since the prize is $1 million.This would have seemed an unlikely scenario a few months ago, but Jutanugarn has arrived at the season-ending CME Group Tour Championship as the leader for the CME Globe -- with that $1 million bonus -- and the yearlong money title. A five-time winner this season, Jutanugarn will be player of the year unless world No. 1 Lydia Ko prevails this week.This year I changed my focus, Jutanugarn said. I try to focus just really positive, not too negative. Even if I hit bad shots, dont really complain about it and just try to hit the next shot.Those bad shots dont seem to happen too often.The 20-year-old from Thailand added something to her pre-shot routine in April, and it had nothing to do with her grip or her swing. She started smiling before most shots, a little trick shes used to keep her mind right over the course of a round.Its worked wonders.Ariya has been playing great and shes consistently putting herself in good positions, Ko said.Most around the LPGA Tour call Jutanugarn May -- a fitting moniker this year. She made three starts this May and won them all, her first LPGA victories coming in succession and starting her springboard to No. 2 in the world.And her ascension into the level of the LPGA elite has been rapid.Jutanugarn didnt make the cut in the first stop this season, shot a final-round 84 in her second start and finished a combined 39 shots behind the winners during a rather unremarkable two-week stretch in March.You still remember? Jutanugarn asked, rhetorically. Did I really shoot 84?Jutanugarn was kidding. She recalls every detail of that day, hammering away with her driver over and over again -- even on the holes where she shouldnt have hit driver -- trying to figure out what was going wrong.Those days are long gone.Jutanugarn, Ko and Brooke Henderson are the three players entering this week with the most realistic chance of hoisting the CME Globe, which goes to the winner of the yearlong points race on the tour. All posed with a plexiglass box holding $1 million to represent the bonus cash that goes to the Globe winner on Monday, and thats when Jutanugarn let her mind wander to what winning it would be like.Her scoring average after her first six starts this season was 72.4. In 21 starts since, its 69.3.The bad shots, she said, inspired me to hit better shots.She leads the money race by a slim margin over Ko entering this week, and she needed no time to decide which trophy shed want most this week if she could leave Naples with only one.To me, it would be player of the year, Jutanugarn said. Its a really huge honor to win that award. To me, thats the hardest one to win.Maybe so, but shes made contending for it look easy.

The teams, and a few thousand fans, waited nearly four hours from the 7:05 scheduled start time before an announcement was made shortly before 11 p. TALLAHASSEE, Fla. -- Florida State is hoping that history doesnt repeat itself as it prepares to face another Heisman Trophy contender.The 12th-ranked Seminoles had one of their worst games of the Jimbo Fisher era in a thumping against Lamar Jackson and No. 5 Louisville. On Saturday, they face Deshaun Watson and third-ranked Clemson for the third time.You watch the consistency he plays with, he throws the deep ball, the short ball, can run, Fisher said of Watson. Hes a great competitor and always finds ways to make the plays.This will be the third time that Watson has faced the Seminoles. Two years ago he came off the bench and completed 19 of 28 for 266 yards along with a rushing touchdown. Last season he had 404 yards of total offense (297 passing, 107 rushing) as the Tigers beat FSU for the first time in four years.Compared to other Atlantic Division teams, the Seminoles (5-2, 2-2 ACC) have had better success against the Tigers (7-0, 4-0) and Watson. FSU is the only division foe to defeat Watson and the two touchdowns theyve given up to him is the least an Atlantic Division team has allowed against Watson.Florida States defense comes into the game a confident bunch. They held Miami and Wake Forest under 300 yards for the units best performances of the season. Though both of those teams featured conventional pocket quarterbacks.Watson brings back memories of the Seminoles nightmarish start.In FSUs first five games, it allowed an average of 35.4 points and 438.4 yards against mostly dual-threat quarterbacks. It allowed Jackson to compile 362 yards of total offense and five touchdowns in the 63-20 loss to the Cardinals on Sept. 17.Watson is also going into the game beaming with confidence. In three October games, he has completed 68.5 percent of his passes and is averaging 318 passing yards.But Watson said the Louisville game wasnt a good indicator of what he expects from Florida States defense.Each game is a different type of scheme and a different way they want to play, Watson said. Those guys are building their chemistry each and every week, again they trust in each other and theyre trying to get better and help their team win.dddddddddddd.Tigers co-offensive coordinator Tony Elliott is another who has noticed a difference from the Louisville game to now.I think they were doing a lot of things on defense early in the season, but you notice the last four games it looks like theyve kind of simplified and allowed their athletes to go out and play, he said.One major reason for Florida States improvement has been better communication among players, but they have continued to struggle when teams go no huddle.Cornerback Tarvarus McFadden, who is tied for the national lead in interceptions with five, said the unit has done a better job of not missing assignments. However, that will be put to the test against Clemson.McFadden also said they need to get pressure on Watson. The Seminoles had a season-high five sacks in the Oct. 15 win over Wake, but has only had three in the previous two meetings against Watson.That sets up a critical matchup between Florida State defensive end DeMarcus Walker, who has 8.5 sacks, and Clemson left tackle Mitch Hyatt.Walker said that the Tigers offensive line does a good job with blocking schemes and that Hyatt should be a tough matchup because he has strong hands and good feet.If Walker and his teammates can force Watson into mistakes, the odds shift in their favor. The only problem is, Watson doesnt make many.Watson has committed only one turnover against Florida State but the Seminoles have done a good job this season of forcing turnovers. They have forced one in eight straight games dating back to last season and already have nine interceptions after having eight all of last year.Something will have to give on Saturday night.---AP Sportswriter Pete Iacobelli contributed to this report from Clemson, South Carolina.---Online:AP college football: www.collegefootball.ap.org ' ' '
