nsider any NFL options until after the 2020 Tokyo Games.

CHASKA, Minn. -- With stakes at the Ryder Cup so high, the players are under plenty of pressure. Danny Willetts focus faltered a bit Wednesday during practice at Hazeltine National Golf Club.This wasnt a case of rookie nerves, though.This was because, well, his brother has a big mouth.Willett was a couple of holes into his round when informed about the online buzz created by the colorful, humorous and crude essay written by his columnist brother , Pete Willett, on the National Club Golfer website that poked fun at the American players and castigated the culture from which their fans have come.It is tough to then concentrate, Danny Willett said, because you dont want people to think badly of yourself.The 28-year-old reigning Masters champion tried his best to move on, as difficult as it was, and apologized for the message that came across from his sibling. Willett praised the American fans who took me under their wing fantastically at Augusta National Golf Club in April.It was tough then to kind of get your head around everything, Willett said in an interview with Golf Channel. You kind of wanted to get off the golf course and hopefully get it sorted, you know, like I said to Pete today, as quick as possible and, like I said, hopefully draw a line under it and get back to what were doing.Europe captain Darren Clarke tried to distance the team from the scathing critique, which couldve been perceived as partially tongue in cheek until Pete Willett posted on Twitter that he meant every word of what he wrote.I showed it to Danny, and hes bitterly disappointed in his brothers article, Clarke said. It is not what Danny thinks. It is not what I think. It is not what Team Europe stands for.Pete Willett wrote that he hopes Team Europe will silence the pudgy, basement-dwelling irritants, stuffed on cookie dough and pissy beer, pausing between mouthfuls of hotdog so they can scream `Baba booey until their jelly faces turn red. He also urged the Europeans to smash the obnoxious dads, with their shiny teeth, Lego man hair, medicated ex-wives, and resentful children.Danny Willett sought out American captain Davis Love III to express his regret.He took it very well and I think hes drawn a line under it obviously for himself and for the team, Willett said. So hopefully everyone else can do the same and hopefully we can get on and have a great tournament.Love said he took the advice of notoriously insular New England Patriots coach Bill Belichick and ignored the noise about the essay.If I read it, Im just going to get mad. If I read it, Im just going to get defensive, Love said. So I just try to ignore it.The crowd this weekend will of course be fiercely partisan for the Americans, who have lost three Ryder Cups in a row and eight of the last 10 events.If we play well here, and get the fans behind us, then weve got an advantage, Love said. But we have to go do it. Fake Yeezys Outlet .

EUGENE, Ore. -- Ducks wide receiver Devon Allen announced Wednesday that he will forgo his final year of NCAA football eligibility to focus solely on professional track.Allen had previously announced that he would forgo NCAA track eligibility. He said Wednesday that a return to football isnt out of the question, but he likely wouldnt seriously consider any NFL options until after the 2020 Tokyo Games.?My scenario is to run track for the next couple years and then in 2020 Olympics win a gold medal and have the world record, said Allen, who competed in the 110-meter hurdles at the 2016 Rio Games. And then put that to the side and try to play football. I think thats the ideal scenario.Allen is recovering from a torn left ACL suffered in the Ducks third game this season, a loss to Nebraska. He previously tore his right ACL in Oregons 2014 Rose Bowl win over Florida State.After the first ACLL tear, many assumed Allen would not return to the football field.dddddddddddd He was the reigning 2014 USA Track & Field 110-meter hurdle champion, and the injury put his future track career in jeopardy. But he returned -- after redshirting the 2014-15 NCAA track season and the 2015 football season -- to train for the Olympics.Allen won the United States Olympic Trials last year before finishing fifth in Rio. He said the second ACL tear didnt necessarily push him further toward the idea of focusing on track because it had been in the back of his mind anyway.?Allen plans to stay in Eugene, Oregon, to train with college coach Jamie Cook and to graduate by this summer. He also plans to compete at the USATF Championships on June 22-25 in Sacramento, California. ' ' '
