TROON, Scotland -- Jason Day is more motivated by failure than success, which helps explain how he reached No. 1 in the world.And it all started last year at the British Open.Day had never felt so calm in the midst of such raging emotion that being in contention at a major can bring. He had an innate sense that it would all work out in his favor, right up until the moment that it didnt.He had a 30-foot birdie putt on the 18th hole at St. Andrews to get into a playoff. It was right on line. And he left it short.But it was that moment he realized he was good enough to win majors, and that he would win them if he had more chances. Three weeks later, he won the PGA Championship with such a dominant display of power that he became the first player to finish at 20-under par in a major.Six weeks later, he reached No. 1 for the first time.It was kind of, I guess, the start of my run where everything kind of changed my world, Day said.The 28-year-old Aussie arrived at Royal Troon on the weekend and headed out to a links course he had never seen, playing in a wind he might not see the rest of the week.The intrigue of Troon is that the shorter nine going out typically is with the wind, while the stronger, longer holes coming back are into the wind. It was the other way around over the weekend, and it began to shift on Monday on the first official day of practice with 25 mph (40 kph) gusts straight off the Irish Sea.In the last five days, the forecast has changed dramatically, defending champion Zach Johnson said. And my guess is, it could change again.The forecast for Day has a little more clarity.He has finished out of the top 10 only twice in his nine tournaments dating to March. What he brings to the Ayrshire coast of Scotland is more motivation -- his last golfing memory was more failure.Day appeared to be firmly in control at the World Golf Championship in Ohio two weeks ago until he three-putted for bogey on the 15th hole, made a mess of the par-5 16th hole on his way to a double bogey, and wound up three shots behind U.S. Open champion Dustin Johnson.I learn more when I fail than when I win, Days. Were not going to win every single one. Even though I dont like losing, it was great to be able to learn something from that and turn this into what I would say a learning experience. ... It was really bad. It was a terrible way to lose, and it was frustrating and disappointing. But things like this, you cant win them all.He said the Tiger Woods era spoiled golf fans into believing everyone should win tournaments when given a chance, and no one was better at that than Woods. Seventy times around the world, Woods had at least a share of the 54-hole lead. He won 60 of them.Thats what Im shooting for, to be able to finish off like he did back in the day, he said. Will I ever get to a point like that? Maybe not. But thats what Im shooting for right now.As a kid, Day said the two biggest tournaments were the Masters and the British Open. Australians have a long history with the claret jug, dating to Peter Thomson winning five times and Greg Norman winning twice. Day was only a year old when Norman closed with a 64 at Royal Troon, only to hit his drive on the final hole of the playoff so far that it went into a pot bunker and ended his chances.Norman still has his name on the jug twice. Woods, whom Day seeks out for advice in golf, is on there three times.Coming so close last year was definitely a motivational factor in that I would love to one day hold the claret jug and be able to put my name down in history with the best that have ever lived and played the game, he said.The jug for the last year belonged to Johnson, who poured wine from it one last time on Sunday night at a house he is sharing with players. Johnsons first duty Monday morning was to give it back to R&A chief Martin Slumbers outside the clubhouse at Royal Troon.It was bittersweet, Johnson said. More sweet, but the fact that youve got to give it back, you know its coming. I guess a portion of that sweetness is you still have an opportunity to get it back. Eddie George Youth Jersey .

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. -- One glance at the Buffalo Bills 4-4 record was all safety Corey Graham needed in assessing the state of his inconsistent team.Right now, were exactly where we are: A mediocre team, Graham said bluntly.As injuries pile up, a sense of demoralization is beginning to set in after Tom Brady and the New England Patriots (7-1) exposed many of the Bills weaknesses in a 41-25 rout on Sunday.Buffalos defense was unable to keep Brady in check in allowing the quarterback to convert nine of 13 third-down chances, throw four touchdowns and engineer five consecutive scoring drives spanning halftime.Brady improved to 26-3 against Buffalo to match an NFL record of most wins by a quarterback against one team. Brett Favre was 26-9 against Detroit.And the Bills injury-depleted offense was in no position to keep up. Playing minus top threat, running back LeSean McCoy (left hamstring), Buffalo punted three times in the first half and was unable to convert two fourth-down chances in the second half.The Bills were also down three of their top four receivers, including Sammy Watkins (left foot), and then lost backup Brandon Tate to a possible concussion Sunday.This resembled nothing of the boastful team that was flying high during a four-game winning streak, which included a 16-0 victory at New England on Oct. 2 in a game Brady sat out while serving his four-game Deflategate suspension.The Bills have now lost two in a row and dropped to 1-4 against AFC teams.Coach Rex Ryan isnt giving up, but concedes Buffalos chances of catching the Patriots are all but over.I think its unrealistic to think youre going to win your division when you just got beat by -- how many games are they up by? Three? Ryan said. I dont see that changing. But I never said it was going to ruin our season.The margin for error is getting thinner for a team attempting to snap a 16-season playoff drought -- the NFLs longest active streak.We just need to calm down, linebacker Zach Brown said, before looking ahead to a Nov. 7 prime-time showdown at Seattle. Weve got to play to win. We all signed up to win this thing.A number of things that stood out Sunday:RED FLAGRyan acknowledged he threw a challenge flag out of frustrration in the final minute when Jonathan Williams was stopped for no gain on first-and-goal from the 1.ddddddddddddhat was on me. Im a little ticked off because I was showing them like, `Guys, just look at the replay, Ryan said. The Bills would have been penalized for an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty, but were instead allowed to use one of their two remaining timeouts. Williams scored on the next play.GRONK MILESTONEPatriots tight end Rob Gronkowski set two franchise scoring records with his 53-yard touchdown catch, which put New England ahead 21-10 in the second quarter. The Buffalo native scored his 69th touchdown and 68th receiving, breaking the previous career record held by Stanley Morgan.Gronkowskis father, Gordie, enjoyed the moment in a stadium suite with about 80 family members and friends.We were all on our barstools and had a big celebration for him, Gordie Gronkowski told The Associated Press, noting he anticipated his son would score.When he comes here, he gets all wired up and hyped up and everything to play in front of his fans, he said. It was a fantastic moment for us.ON THE RUNBills backup RB Mike Gillislee had 12 carries for 85 yards and scored on 3-yard run filling in for McCoy. Ryan said hes not sure about McCoys playing status for next week. Third-string running back Reggie Bush didnt finish the game because of a groin injury.HOGAN HOMECOMINGPatriots receiver Chris Hogan scored on a 53-yard touchdown catch in beating Bills top cornerback Stephon Gilmore up the left sideline.Busted coverage, said Gilmore, who was spotted yelling at safety Jonathan Meeks following the play.Hogan spent the previous four seasons in Buffalo before signing an offer sheet with New England which the Bills declined to match last spring.SACK STREAK SNAPPEDBills linebacker Lorenzo Alexanders seven-game sack streak was snapped when he left the game in the second quarter with a hamstring injury. Alexander was hurt during a punt return. The 10-year journeyman entered with an NFL-leading nine sacks.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and http://twitter.com/AP-NFL ' ' '
