SPRINGFIELD, N.
Cheap Bills Jerseys China .J. -- The years
final major is upon us this week outside New York City, and it starts just 11
days after The Open at Royal Troon finished. How are the top pros going to
handle the rare turnaround in major championship conditions and pressure?And
what can we expect from Phil Mickelson, who finished oh-so-close to capturing
another Claret Jug in Scotland? Our experts tackle these topics and more in this
weeks edition of Monday Four-Ball.1. World No. 1 Jason Day and No. 2 Dustin
Johnson were the only players in the top 15 in the Official World Golf Rankings
to play the RBC Canadian Open. Will that help or hurt them this week at the PGA
Championship?SportsCenter anchor Jonathan Coachman: I think fatigue will
absolutely play a factor for those that played the Open Championship, then in
Canada, and then at Baltrusol. But heres the thing: Playing in the heat of
summer when you start to play well can be an advantage. The only two players
that should have had confidence coming out of Royal Troon were runner-up Phil
Mickelson and winner Henrik Stenson. So the long answer is yes, I think playing
in Canada will help those that did.ESPN.com senior golf analyst Michael Collins:
It will hurt them. I completely understand the tie to the sponsor, but if Im
RBC, Id much rather have them winning majors this season than playing in Canada.
Two majors in three weeks is tough on its own. Maintaining high-level play for
three weeks straight is an impossible ask which is why the 13 other top guys
didnt do it.ESPN.com senior golf writer Bob Harig: Playing well wont hurt them,
but maybe playing at all will. Having two major championships in three weeks is
tough enough, but add another tournament in between -- along with the travel
from Europe -- and getting worn down is certainly in play, especially with a hot
weather week ahead in New Jersey.ESPN.com senior golf editor Kevin Maguire: It
probably wont do either, but it could hurt both of them down the road. Granted,
neither of them will be playing in the Olympics despite qualifying, but theyve
got a long stretch of golf with the FedEx Cup playoffs right around the corner
to wrap up the 2015-16 season.ESPN.com senior golf writer Jason Sobel: Can I
pick none of the above? Heres what will happen this week: If JD and DJ each
contend for the title, well explain theyre sharp because they played a tourney
the week before; if they each play poorly at the PGA, well explain theyre worn
out from playing the week before. The truth is, theyre golfers. And golfers play
golf. Playing last week shouldnt really have much of an effect on how they play
this week.2. More likely for Phil Mickelson: Inside or outside the top 10 at
Baltusrol?Coachman: I am going inside the top 10. He has had a sneaky good year.
He was big time at Troon and will be big time at Baltusrol.Collins: Outside. As
great as it would be to see him play well here again, when Mickelson finishes
second in a major, his next start usually stinks. Heres the past five starts
after major second-place finishes; MC, 78, MC, MC, T58. You still have that
confident feeling you had when you first read the question? Sorry for the honest
reality slap.Harig: Outside. As well as he played at Royal Troon, and as good as
it is for him to be able to keep the momentum going, there are no guarantees.
Mickelson had missed the cut at the Masters, Players and U.S. Open.Maguire: Wish
I could say inside, but outside is more likely. Most will point to his win here
at Baltusrol at the 2005 PGA as a reason for hope, but after expending all that
energy and still coming up short at Royal Troon, I cant imagine a 46-year-old
Mickelson keeping the gas on the pedal for a second time in three weeks.Sobel: I
really like Mickelsons chances this week, so Ill say inside the top 10. I spoke
with Phil for a while after the WGC-Bridgestone Invitational, two weeks before
he finished runner-up at Troon. One thing he said struck me as noteworthy: While
most elite golfers are squeezing a lot of golf into a tight window this summer,
hell have a three-week break starting next week. At the time, I thought that
could mean hed make a run at the FedEx Cup. Now I think hell make another run at
a major.3. Andrew Beef Johnston just signed an endorsement deal with Arbys.
Whats your favorite player/sponsor combo?Coachman: To me, a perfect combo would
be Dunkin Donuts and Jason Day. How many start your day with ... sentences are
there? So many. And with his family, they could factor them in as well.Collins:
Coming off the win at The Open, Henrik Stenson -- aka The Iceman -- should have
a golf bag sponsored by Polar Temp. You know all the big freezers you grab bags
of ice from at gas stations and convenience stores? Theyre made by Polar Temp.
Then his golf bag (white) would just say ICE (blue letters) and his head covers
could have icicles hanging from them!Harig: Boo Weekleys deal with Firethorn is
perfect. Camouflage shirts and hats seems totally appropriate.Maguire: To stay
with the Beefs fast-food theme, how about Graeme McDowell and McDonalds? Theres
got to be someone who can work in this McDowells/McDonalds clip from the movie
Coming To America right?Sobel: Duh. Its Miguel Angel Jimenez, who played The
Most Interesting Man in the World in those Dos Equis commercials.4. Thumbs up or
thumbs down to the European Tour floating the idea of six-hole
tournaments.Coachman: Thumbs down. There is nothing wrong with the way things
are done. I am all for new ideas and trying to make things fresh, but I would
focus on promoting the players instead of getting gimmicky.Collins: Thumbs way
up! Thered be all kinds of infrastructure changes that would have to be made,
but the thought of 100 guys playing six holes, best score wins? Talk about
pressure and drama. European Tour chief executive Keith Pelley is going to get
blasted by the old (stuffy) guard, but I love him not being afraid to blow it up
and try something different.Harig: Its a nice idea, but ideas on the pro tours
are better if they are truly during the course of a real tournament. Why not
play 12-hole rounds over 4 days and have the event count?Maguire: Thumbs up.
Golf needs this kind of shake up in a big way. Will it solve all that ails the
sport? Of course not, nor does anyone expect that. But what casual observers and
weekend hackers like me know for certain is that whatever the pros do, the
general golfing public tends to go in that direction as well. One can only hope
the PGA Tour brass is trying to come up with similar ideas to keep the game
relevant to younger generations.Sobel: No. No, no, no, no, no. Just -- no. I
dont even understand this. Golf isnt so broken that it needs this much fixing.
Im all for alternative ideas to make events more fun and fan-friendly. But a
six-hole tourney sounds like a terrible idea. Im out.

9. Price, heading to the 2014 Olympics for Canada, was named the First Star
after posting wins in three starts with a 1.00 goals-against average and a .971
save percentage. KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- Yadier Molina looked perfectly comfortable
in the No. 2 spot in the lineup. Batting second for only the third time in his
career, Molina homered and drove in four runs to help the St. Louis Cardinals
beat the slumping Kansas City Royals 6-3 on Monday. Molina hit a two-run homer
in the first inning and doubled home a run in the third before his sacrifice fly
in the fourth scored Pete Kozma. "Yadier is pretty flexible," Cardinals manager
Mike Matheny said. "We like him wherever he hits. Today he did a nice job
hitting in the second position." Molina had batted fifth 40 times and sixth
seven times this year. "It doesnt matter for me," he said. "Ive got the same
approach: Im going to be aggressive." While the Cardinals own the best road
record in the majors at 19-9, the Royals dropped their ninth straight home game
-- one shy of the franchise record set last year. "Were playing good," Molina
said. "Weve got some good offence. Right now, were seeing the ball pretty good.
Were finding some holes. Were showing the people weve got a pretty good team.
Hopefully we can continue to do that for the rest of the season." The
anticipated pitchers duel between Adam Wainwright and James Shields failed to
materialize. Wainwright (7-3) struck out five and walked none in eight innings
for the win. He allowed 12 hits, his most since Sept. 14, 2010, against the
Chicago Cubs. The right-hander gave up 12 hits over 22 1-3 innings in his
previous three starts. "Early on, they got some hits off some bad pitches and I
felt like as the game went on they put some really good at-bats against me and
hit some good pitches as well," Wainwright said. "I broke several of their bats
and they found holes. The got some good hits as well on good pitches. I think as
a pitcher no matter what happens on the other side you just have to keep
battling and keep making pitches and eventually if you keep making pitches
things will work out." Edward Mujica gave up a hit in the ninth but earned his
15th save in as many opportunities. Shields (2-6) yielded nine hits and season
highs of six runs and five walks over six innings while losing his fourth
straight start. "t;I wasnt commanding my fastball and I was getting behind in
the count and then I started walking guys," Shields said.

got to gut it out. Weve got great effort in here." After rain delayed the start
for 62 minutes, the Cardinals opened the game with Matt Carpenters single and
Molinas third home run. It was the first time Molina had faced Shields. "Shields
is a good pitcher," Molina said. "My brother (caught) him in Tampa. I watched
him a bunch of times on TV. Ive got a pretty good idea what he brings to the
table. He made a couple of mistakes in the middle and I took advantage." Royals
rookie David Lough, who had a career-high four hits, led off the first with a
double and scored on Alex Gordons single. Molinas double in the third scored
Daniel Descalso. Molina scored on Allen Craigs single. The Royals answered with
two runs in the bottom half. Gordon scored on a wild pitch and Eric Hosmer
contributed an RBI single. The Cardinals expanded their lead in the sixth when
Carpenters double scored Descalso, who had three hits and a walk. "We showed
some life," Royals manager Ned Yost said. "We had Wainwright on the ropes, but
we couldnt get the big hit." NOTES: Cardinals RHP Jake Westbrook threw all his
pitches in a bullpen session and experienced no pain in the tender elbow that
put him on the disabled list May 9. After that, Westbrook cancelled an afternoon
flight to see Dr. James Andrews for a second opinion on his elbow. ... The
Cardinals optioned RHP Carlos Martinez to Triple-A Memphis, where he will start
after seven relief appearances in the majors. The 21-year-old Martinez has
primarily been a starter in the minors. ... The Cardinals scratched pitching
prospect Michael Wacha from a Sunday start with Memphis. He could start Thursday
at St. Louis against the Royals. "Were still checking our options," Matheny
said. ... 3B Mike Moustakas was held out of the Royals lineup with a bruised
quadriceps, but was available if needed. ... The Cardinals recalled RHP
Victor Marte from Memphis, where he had 10 saves. ... LF Matt Holliday, in an
0-for-14 skid, was not in the Cardinals lineup. 20:50ET 27-05-13
