A look at the U.S. team in the 41st Ryder Cup on Sept. 30-Oct. 2 at Hazeltine National in Chaska, Minnesota. Players are listed in the order they made the team.DUSTIN JOHNSONAge: 32.Ryder Cup record (2 teams): 4-3-0.World ranking: 2.Career victories: 12.Majors: U.S. Open (2016).2016 victories: U.S. Open, Bridgestone Invitational, BMW Championship.Ryder Cup partners: Phil Mickelson, Jim Furyk, Matt Kuchar.Outlook: Johnson has emerged as the best American, if not the best player in the world, at the moment. He missed the last Ryder Cup, when he was sitting out for six months to seek help for what he described as personal challenges. He can win when hes not putting his best. Hes hard to beat when he is.---JORDAN SPIETHAge: 23.Ryder Cup record (1 team): 2-1-1.World ranking: 4.Career victories: 10.Majors: Masters (2015), U.S. Open (2015).2016 victories: Hyundai Tournament of Champions, Colonial.Ryder Cup partners: Patrick Reed.Outlook: Spieth has yet to win a singles match in his two appearances in a Ryder Cup or Presidents Cup. He is playing reasonably well; it just doesnt seem like it because last year was among the best. He and Dustin Johnson were formidable in fourballs at the Presidents Cup last year.---PHIL MICKELSONAge: 46.Ryder Cup record (10 teams): 16-19-6.World ranking: 14.Career victories: 45.Majors: Masters (2004, 2006, 2010), British Open (2013), PGA Championship (2005).2016 victories: None.Ryder Cup partners: Corey Pavin, Jay Haas, Davis Love III, Tom Lehman, David Duval, Jim Furyk, David Toms, Chris DiMarco, Anthony Kim, Hunter Mahan, Dustin Johnson, Rickie Fowler, Keegan Bradley.Outlook: He is playing on his 11th straight team, an American record. And he has qualified for every one of them, a record that will be hard to beat. But which Mickelson will show up at Hazeltine? The player at Royal Troon who took Henrik Stenson to the wire? Or the guy who can miss fairways and short putts? Plus, he has taken on a big leadership role for this team and thus carries a little more of the burden.---PATRICK REEDAge: 26.Ryder Cup record (1 team): 3-0-1.World ranking: 8.Career victories: 5.Majors: None.2016 victories: The Barclays.Ryder Cup partners: Jordan Spieth.Outlook: Reed is tough in match play because he makes it personal. He whipped up the Scottish crowd by hushing them with his finger over his lips, and hes sure to whip up the home crowd. But it starts with good golf, and his golf was ordinary at the Presidents Cup. His only victory was fourballs with Spieth.---JIMMY WALKERAge: 37.Ryder Cup record (1 team): 1-1-3.World ranking: 16.Career victories: 6.Majors: PGA Championship (2016).2016 victories: PGA Championship.Ryder Cup partners: Rickie Fowler.Outlook: He was among the best rookies at Gleneagles last time, but he was only 1-3-0 at the Presidents Cup. His season was pedestrian until he put it all together to win the PGA Championship, and he showed more good form was on the way by contending at the Deutsche Bank Championship. Hes one of the better putters on the U.S. team.---BROOKS KOEPKAAge: 26.Ryder Cup record (rookie): 0-0-0.World ranking: 22.Career victories: 2.Majors: None.2016 victories: None.Ryder Cup partners: None.Outlook: The only American rookie in this Ryder Cup, he missed a month because of ankle injury, returned and sewed up a spot on the team with a tie for fourth in the PGA Championship. His results have been ordinary during the FedEx Cup playoffs, and he was one of three Americans who missed the Tour Championship.---BRANDT SNEDEKERAge: 35.Ryder Cup record (1 team): 1-2-0.World ranking: 23.Career victories: 8.Majors: None.2016 victories: Farmers Insurance Open.Ryder Cup partners: Jim Furyk.Outlook: Snedeker went from winning the FedEx Cup to playing in his first Ryder Cup in 2012. He was at his best the opening two months of the season. Driving and power are not strengths. Putting is what makes him dangerous. His only partners in the Ryder Cup or Presidents Cup -- Jim Furyk, Hunter Mahan and Webb Simpson -- will not be at Hazeltine.---ZACH JOHNSONAge: 40.Ryder Cup record (4 teams): 6-6-2.World ranking: 27.Career victories: 12.Majors: Masters (2007), British Open (2015).2016 victories: None.Ryder Cup partners: Chad Campbell, Scott Verplank, Stewart Cink, Hunter Mahan, Jason Dufner, Matt Kuchar.Outlook: He made the team on the strength of his British Open victory -- last year. Johnsons best finish this year is fifth place at Bay Hill, and he never really contended there. He switched golf equipment at the start of the year. But he is tough in match play because he keeps the ball in play and his strengths typically are the wedges and putter.---RICKIE FOWLERAge: 27.Ryder Cup record (2 teams): 0-3-5.World ranking: 9.Career victories: 6.Majors: None.2016 victories: Abu Dhabi HSBC Golf Championship.Ryder Cup partners: Jim Furyk, Phil Mickelson, Jimmy Walker.Outlook: He has yet to win a match in the Ryder Cup, and his record in the Ryder Cup and Presidents Cup is 1-6-5. But he is popular with his teammates and is versatile when it comes to pairings. He wasted a good chance to make the team outright at The Barclays. This will be his first Ryder Cup on home soil.---J.B. HOLMESAge: 34.Ryder Cup record (1 team): 2-0-1.World ranking: 21.Career victories: 4.Majors: None.2016 victories: None.Ryder Cup partners: Boo Weekley.Outlook: Holmes and Mickelson are the only American players who have been on a winning Ryder Cup team. Holmes is long and aggressive, but he can be shaky with the putter. His last victory was the Shell Houston Open in April 2015. He won the B-flight at the British Open by finishing third (14 shots behind Henrik Stenson).---MATT KUCHARAge: 38.Ryder Cup record (3 teams): 4-5-2.World ranking: 17.Career victories: 9.Majors: None.2016 victories: None.Ryder Cup partners: Stewart Cink, Dustin Johnson, Jim Furyk, Bubba Watson, Zach Johnson.Outlook: Kuchar won the bronze medal at the Olympics, the highlight of his year thus far. He is reliable in match play, and easy to match based on having five partners in three Ryder Cups. His last PGA Tour victory was in April 2014 at Hilton Head.Tyler Glasnow Jersey .

The Blue Jays have been on a tear with 11 straight wins and look to establish a franchise record for consecutive victories when they open a three-game series tonight against the Tampa Bay Rays at Tropicana Field. Toronto was predicted to turn the corner this season and didnt live up to those high expectations until the last two weeks. The club has made the AL East a bit interesting with the current winning streak and is tied with Tampa Bay at five games off the lead. A three-game sweep of the Baltimore Orioles was the last order of business for the Jays, who used a 13-5 rout of the Os on Sunday to stay on track. Edwin Encarnacion was 3-for-5 with four RBI, two runs scored and his 21st home run, Jose Bautista drove in three runs and Colby Rasmus homered in the win. The 13 runs were a season high for the Blue Jays and they last won 11 straight from June 2-13, 1987 and again from Aug. 27-Sept. 7, 1998. Toronto was 27-36 before the winning streak. "We always figured it was just a matter of time before we started playing better and it lasted longer than we expected, but thats all behind us now," Toronto manager John Gibbons said. Josh Johnson earned his first win as a Blue Jay in his eighth start of the season, allowing four runs on seven hits with five strikeouts over six-plus innings. Toronto will also visit Boston on this road trip and has won five in a row away from home. The last time the Jays lost was June 10 at the Chicago White Sox. Slated to make his fifth start of the season, Blue Jays right-hander Esmil Rogers gets the nod tonight. Rogers has won two straight trips to the hill and was last in action on Tuesday in an 8-3 triumph over Colorado. The Rockies reached Rogers for three runs -- two earned -- in 6 2/3 innings, but Torontos offense was too much to send Rogers to the loss column.dddddddddddd Rogers, who is 3-2 with a 3.14 ERA in 27 games (4 starts), has faced the Rays three times in relief this season and is 1-0 with a 3.60 ERA in seven career relief stints against them. Tampa Bay is back at the Trop for six games versus Toronto and Detroit, and went 3-4 on a road trip against the Red Sox and New York Yankees. The Rays earned a split of four-game series at Yankee Stadium thanks to Sundays 3-1 win behind starting pitcher Chris Archer. Archer tossed six innings of one-run ball, struck out four batters and allowed only one walk. James Loney drove in two runs in the seventh inning to put the Rays ahead for good and Ben Zobrist got Tampa Bay on the board early with an RBI single in the first inning. Loney ended with three hits, as the Rays halted a two-game slide and had dropped eight of 11 contests. Adam Lind was 1-for-5 and has at least one hit in 17 of his last 20 games. "Weve done that several times this year, with what appeared to be a devastating loss we come back the next day and play well and you win in a very difficult venue," Rays manager Joe Maddon said. "So Im really proud of the way the guys handle these moments." Jeremy Hellickson will open this series on the hill for the Rays and has won four of his last five decisions. Hellickson was hammered in a 10-1 loss to Kansas City on June 13, allowing eight runs and 10 hits in 5 2/3 innings, but rebounded six days later in a win at Boston. Hellickson limited the Red Sox to a pair of runs in six innings and pushed his record to 5-3 in 15 starts with a 5.50 earned run average. The right-hander has no record and a 3.46 ERA in two starts against Toronto this season and is 3-2 with a 3.04 ERA in eight career starts in this series. Toronto has won four of seven meetings with Tampa Bay this season. ' ' '
