PARIS - Michael Schumacher is showing "small, encouraging signs" that he may awake from his coma, his agent said Wednesday, more than two months after a ski crash left the Formula One champion with severe head injuries. Joe Theismann Jersey . Updates since Schumachers accident have offered few details and limited optimism for the man who once drove the worlds fastest cars and motorcycles but was critically injured on a familiar ski slope during a family outing. Wednesdays statement was little different, describing "an extremely intimate and fragile situation" for his family. "It is very hard to comprehend for all of us that Michael, who had overcome a lot of precarious situations in the past, has been hurt so terribly in such a banal situation," Sabine Kehm, a family representative, wrote in a statement. "We are and remain confident that Michael will pull through and will wake up. There sometimes are small, encouraging signs, but we also know that this is the time to be very patient." Small signs that physicians are watching for could include fluttering eyelids, or efforts to breathe without a ventilator. "This doesnt change ones opinion of Schumachers situation in general. Its still very difficult to predict what his long-term recovery will be like and if he does wake up and comes off the ventilator," said Dr. Tipu Aziz, professor of neurosurgery at Oxford University. "In all likelihood he will be severely disabled," said Aziz, who has not been involved in treating Schumacher. Schumacher, known affectionately as Schumi, was hospitalized with severe head injuries after the Dec. 29 ski accident, which split his helmet as he crashed into rocks on the slope at the Meribel ski station in the French Alps. Doctors put him into a coma to rest his brain and decrease swelling, and they operated to remove blood clots, but some were too deeply embedded. Neurologists not involved in his treatment say full recovery appears increasingly unlikely, given the comas duration and the extent of his injuries. "Every brain injury is different and no two routes to recovery will be the same," said Luke Griggs, a spokesman for Headway, a British brain injury charity. "It is fair to suggest that any patient waking from a three month-long coma will face the prospect of a long and challenging road to recovery, with the eventual outcome uncertain."

Wattel had seven birdies before a single bogey on the 17th for a 64, to follow up rounds of 67 and 65 on Thursday and Friday and take a three-shot lead over second-placed Richie Ramsay of Scotland. Casey was third after nearly making history at the par-70 Kennemer Golf & Country Club. Needing an eagle for a 59, his second shot on the par-four ninth -- the last hole of his third round -- pitched close to the cup before spinning left and off the green. The Englishman then over-hit his chip back onto the green and two-putted to finish with his first bogey and a wry smile as he matched the course record of 8-under 62 set a day earlier by overnight leader Pablo Laarrazabal. Earnest Byner Jersey. Starting his round from the 10th, Casey made five birdies on his outward nine and four more coming home before his final-hole bogey. "Im really not bothered about the 59, I wasnt thinking about it. It wasnt until my caddie said that was almost a 59 that I thought about it," said Casey, whose partner gave birth to the couples son on Sept. 1. "The disappointment was making a bogey on the last, not in missing out on a 59," Casey said. "Im just happy Im playing some good stuff. Life is great. Ive got a little one at home now, and it just means I have to go home a little later now." Defending champion Joost Luiten of the Netherlands recovered from a quadruple bogy nine on his second hole to post a 3-under 67 that left him still in the hunt, six shots behind Wattel. "Not the start I wanted," Luiten said.
