ATLANTA -- Phil Mickelson was pleased to find some form on the final day of the Tour Championship, but he expressed displeasure over the setup at East Lake, saying it was not gd preparation for next weeks Ryder Cup.Mickelson, who shot a final-round 66 that included a triple-bogey and a back-nine 29, said the rough was the worst Ive seen in years, and were not going to have that rough next week at Hazeltine National outside of Minneapolis, where the 41st Ryder Cup will take place.Im going to point something out, Mickelson said, unprompted. This is a great example of the disconnect that we have on the U.S. side because the [PGA] Tour doesnt own the Ryder Cup, or doesnt work in conjunction with the PGA of America.The Ryder Cup is administered by the PGA of America in the U.S. and the European Tour in Europe.The European Tour would never have the setup be so different the week before the Ryder Cup, Mickelson said. If we were in Europe and they were going to set up the course a certain way, the week before they would set it up a certain way. Were not going to have rough like that.Why the tour set it up so differently from what were going to have next week is a lack of communication and working together. Its those kinds of details that we have to sort through as a unit to bring out our best.Mickelson, 46, will play in his 11th straight Ryder Cup dating to 1995. He was vocal two years ago at Gleneagles in Scotland, where the U.S. lost for the third straight time. He indirectly criticized U.S. captain Tom Watson and led a movement to make changes to the Ryder Cup process, suggesting that the PGA of America take more player input.That resulted in the formation of the U.S. Ryder Cup Task Force, a change in qualifying criteria and timing of selections, as well as Davis Love III being named captain for a second time.Mickelson admitted earlier in the week that his thoughts were more on the Ryder Cup than they were on the season-ending PGA Tour event.Well, Ive won two Tour Championships, and Ive only been a part of two winning Ryder Cups, Mickelson said. Id kind of like to be a part of a third. So not to diminish this [tournament], but Id rather win next week. For me, at this stage in my career, it means a little more to me.The PGA Tour is under no obligation to set up the course with that in mind. The Tour Championship not only has an $8.5 million purse and is the culmination of a 40-plus event season, but it is also where the FedEx Cup champion is crowned, with the winner receiving a $10 million bonus.It is true that the recent events on the European Tour in Italy (where seven European Ryder Cup members played) and Germany (where two played) were on relatively benign setups with lots of birdies possible.Seven U.S. Ryder Cup team members were at East Lake, including Brandt Snedeker, who did not agree with Mickelson.Thats Phil being Phil, Snedeker said, chuckling. I like rough on this course. Its a different tournament. A different course, different grass, different everything.The Ryder Cup teams will arrive in Minnesota on Monday. The event begins Friday morning. Nike Shoes Cheap Uk Sale . PAUL, Minn. Outlet Nike Shoes Uk .

TAMPA, Fla. -- Jay Cutler and the Chicago Bears didnt give themselves a chance.Four first-half turnovers and a couple of big defensive lapses undermined the mistake-prone team during a 36-10 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday.Cutler was hoping to build on a strong performance coming off an injury two weeks ago, but the Bears (2-7) were unable to retain their momentum coming out of a bye.Jameis Winston threw for 312 yards and two touchdowns for the Bucs (4-5), while Cutler threw two interceptions, fumbled twice and was sacked four times.Whole team was off today. Not sure how you can put it on one guy, coach John Fox after his team remained winless on the road. We werent as consistent as we were (in a win two weeks ago against Minnesota). I didnt see it coming. I thought we had a great week of preparation.Cutler threw a 50-yard TD pass to Cameron Meredith on the final play of the first half. He finished 16 of 30 for 182 yards, and rkie Jordan Howard rushed for 100 yards on 15 carries.The Bears, however, werent anywhere near gd enough to overcome their mistakes.Cutlers first interception was returned for a touchdown, and his second-quarter fumble cost Chicago an opportunity to kick a short field goal that would have trimmed its deficit to 7-6. The quarterbacks other fumble resulted in a safety, and Howards second-quarter fumble set up Winstons TD pass to Cameron Brate.Any given week, you can win, you can lose. It depends on how you execute, Cutler said. Obviously, we didnt get the job done today.A couple more things to know about Bears-BuccaneersAINFUL CELEBRATIONTampa Bay coach Dirk Koetter had a bandage above his right eye during his postgame news conference, the result of a head butt from Chris Conte following his interception return for a touchdown.Chris Conte acts like hes never scored a touchdown before, Koetter said with a smile. When you come off after a score, its OK to head butt guys that have helmets on. He head-butted me in the head. Almost bbroke my glasses, my hat was off.ddddddddddddBut it feels gd now.SELF-DESTRUCTIONThe Bears offense ventured into Tampa Bay territory on four of its first five possessions, yet only managed a field goal.Well go back to the drawing board, Fox said. Weve got to get better.HAIL MARYDeep in their own territory and down two touchdowns after turning the ball over four times, the Bears werent content with merely running out the final 31 seconds of the opening half. They used timeouts after Jeremy Langfords 13-yard run and Cutlers 4-yard completion to the reserve running back, and then set themselves up for a final play when KaDeem Carey scampered 16 yards to midfield on a reception before getting out of bounds. Cutler heaved his 50-yard TD pass to Meredith in the back of the end zone to finish a four-play, 83-yard drive.YOUNG PASSERWinstons second-quarter TD pass to Brate was the 40th of the second-year pros career. At 22 years, 312 days old, he is the youngest quarterback in NFL history to reach that plateau, doing it in 25 games. Hes on pace to top 4,000 yards passing for the second straight year, and he has thrown for 19 TDs versus 10 interceptions this season.CRAZY PLAYWinston often is at his best when improvising. A prime example was a third-and-10 play from the Tampa Bay 23 that saw him scramble all the way back into his own end zone before heaving a 39-yard completion to Mike Evans. The first overall pick from the 2015 draft threw a 43-yard TD pass to Freddie Martino for a 24-10 lead on the next play.Koetter noted one of Winstons strongest attributes is he almost never gives up on a play.Thats a two-way street. That helps us sometimes. It hurts us other times, the coach said. Youve got to love that kid, the way he battles. Theres just something about him.---For more NFL coverage: http://www.pro32.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP-NFL ' ' '
