(Photo by Ryan Young/PGA TOUR)OLD WESTBURY, N.Y. — Regardless of how this week's Northern Trust turns out, Jason Day is already planning on having a few drinks on Sunday night the next time he's in the New York City area. Sure, the upcoming Presidents Cup being played right outside the Big Apple lends itself to potential big nights out on the town, but the Aussie is more concerned with the company he keeps than the location.
“I think we would like to have a really good bond session on Sunday night. Have a few drinks with the boys would really set that off,” Day said of his Presidents Cup teammates. “Because really as a team, the American Team, you see them, I talked to — Rickie Fowler was with me at a Zurich outing on Monday and I said, what did you do over the last weekends.

“I think we would like to have a really good bond session on Sunday night.

Ross KinnairdOLD WESTBURY, N.Y. — Will Phil Mickelson make the U.S. Presidents Cup team? As we approach next month's event, it sounds more and more like that question will be answered by Phil Mickelson.
Of course, it's always up to a player to earn a spot on the team or prove himself worthy of a captain's pick, but this year, Steve Stricker seems ready to let the veteran lefty make the actual decision on whether he'll tee it up for the Americans at Liberty National.

“I will probably leave it up to Phil at some point telling me if he thinks he can be ready to play, if he’s capable of helping out and then I’ll ask the rest of the team,” Stricker told PGATour.com ahead of this week's Northern Trust.
So after an opening two-over-par 72 at Glen Oaks Club, Mickelson was asked whether he would pick himself right now.
“Like I said, I'm going to see how these next two weeks go,” said Mickelso..

Stan BadzU.S. Presidents Cup captain Steve Stricker, Jordan Spieth, Charley Hoffman and assistant Jim Furyk take in a practice round during course previews at Liberty National Golf Club on Aug. 21.OLD WESTBURY, N.Y. — The Presidents Cup has the unfortunate reputation of being the “little brother” to the Ryder Cup, and with good reason. History, and results, are clearly on the Ryder Cup’s side. With the U.S. lop-sided 9-1-1 edge over the International side, it’s difficult to discern what happened in any single Presidents Cup since the competition began in 1994.
But representing your country still means something, especially to a few guys who haven’t in either competition. Two potential first-timers include Charley Hoffman and Kevin Chappell, sitting at 10th and 11th in the U.S. team standings, respectively, with two weeks left in the qualifying process and the top 10 making the squad. Playing for American captain Steve Stricker at Liberty National in late September is certainly on their..
