PARAMUS, N. Sean Kilpatrick Jersey .J. -- Graeme McDowell wasnt kidding when he said he had a lot on his mind at The Barclays. The former U.S. Open champion and Ryder Cup star announced Sunday evening that he was leaving Horizon Sports Management at the end of the year and will start managing his own business affairs. McDowell said Ireland-based Horizon "surpassed my highest expectations" in his seven years with the management company. "I am at a stage in my life where it feels right to move on to the next phase of my career, both in golf and business," McDowell said in a statement. "Im now involved with a growing number of exciting business ventures, many of which Horizon helped me establish, and as the landscape evolves so must I." McDowell closed with a 72 on Sunday and tied for 38th at The Barclays. He headed home to Orlando, Florida, where his wife was to give birth to their first child Monday morning. He is taking next week off during the FedEx Cup playoffs. "Ive had a lot on my mind this week," he said when he finished his round. "I dont think mentally I was ready for this tournament." He said he would get choked up if he kept talking about the impending birth of his daughter, and just at that moment, a baby began crying. "Thats how Ill be tomorrow morning," McDowell said. The 35-year-old from Northern Ireland holds the ninth and final spot for Europes Ryder Cup team with one week remaining to qualify. Stephen Gallacher of Scotland could pass him with a two-way tie for second in the Italian Open this week. If that happens, McDowell is likely to be a captains pick, though he would prefer to make the team. "I hope Stephen goes and does the job," McDowell said. "Hes had a great year. The Ryder Cup being in Scotland, I wouldnt begrudge him a spot on the team." The departure from Horizon was amicable, though there were no indications that McDowell was about to handle his own affairs. Rory McIlroy left Horizon a year ago in a split that has turned into a battle over fees and is still to be resolved in an Irish court early next year. McDowell praised Conor Ridge, the CEO of Horizon, and said they would remain close. "We wish Graeme well for the rest of his golf career and in his future commercial ventures," Ridge said. "His innate business acumen will serve him well as he manages his own affairs in the years ahead." Timofey Mozgov Jersey .S. womens soccer team to a 2-0 win over China in Colorado in the afternoon.

He struggled with injuries and ineffectiveness early in the season and was arrested on felony gun charges late last month. With all the trouble swirling around him, the point guard was just 7 for 32 in the five games since his arrest. Felton broke out of his slump with 18 points and Carmelo Anthony scored 33 points to help the Knicks snap a seven-game losing streak with a 118-106 victory over the Minnesota Timberwolves on Wednesday night. "If youre not there mentally, it can really mess you up," said Felton, who made 5 of 8 shots and also had eight assists and four steals. "But Im not one to make excuses. I got a lot going on, but theres a lot of people in this world that are dealing with a lot. I cant make that excuse." Tyson Chandler had 15 points and 14 rebounds and Amare Stoudemire added 18 points and eight boards for the Knicks, who had not won since beating New Orleans on Feb. 19. Knicks coach Mike Woodson had a long chat with Felton on Tuesday, trying to gauge how focused his point guard was on the court with so much to deal with off it. "I wasnt going to take him out of the lineup, but I wanted to make sure that his head was in the right place for playing," Woodson said. "We just have to continue to help him and get him through this process." Kevin Love had 19 points and eight rebounds, but scored just one point in the second half as the Timberwolves returned from a successful West Coast road trip with a thud. Kevin Martin had 12 points on 3-for-10 shooting and the Wolves were 7 for 26 from 3-point range. "We cant give in and say that this is a killer," Wolves coach Rick Adelman said. "I know everybodys going to say that you cant lose to the Knicks, its a killer. ... We just have to go out and beat Detroit (on Friday). We lost this game. Its not going to be perfect. I dont worry about this being really damaging. I worry about the wayy we played. Drazen Petrovic Jersey. " Timberwolves coaches had quietly worried about opening a homestand against a team that had been playing so poorly, fearing that the breakout was coming. They were right. The Knicks hit eight of their first 10 field goals Wednesday night and went 5 for 7 from 3-point range to open a 38-24 lead after one quarter. The lead swelled to 17 points in the second quarter as New York chewed up Minnesotas soft interior defence with pick-and-roll lobs to Chandler, a staple of their 54 victories last year. After such a flat first half, Ricky Rubio and the Wolves came alive in the third quarter, methodically carving into the Knicks lead. Nikola Pekovic asserted himself in the paint against Stoudemire and an emboldened Rubio scored nine points in the quarter to cut the deficit to 88-86 going into the fourth. But Pekovic had to sit out most of the fourth quarter because of a minutes restriction placed on him to reduce the wear and tear on a sore ankle that kept him out for most of February. "Its really frustrating because youre trying to win games, youre trying to stay relevant and everything," Adelman said. "He had it going that third quarter. We had it going with him on the floor and I had to take him out. Its just something we have to live with, but its really hard." Anthony and Stoudemire led a 15-2 charge to start the fourth quarter that sealed the victory. Felton hit Tim Hardaway Jr. for a soaring alley-oop moments later for a 107-92 lead. "Even though Im dealing with a lot of stuff off the court, I got a lot to play for right now," Felton said. "I just tried to clear my head tonight, come out and play, and have fun. This is a place where I can come and just be free." NOTES: Pekovic finished with 17 points and six rebounds in 26 minutes and Rubio had 11 points, eight assists and six rebounds for the Wolves. ... New Yorks 66 points were its second-highest first half output of the season. ... J.R. Smith added 14 points, five assists and five rebounds for the Knicks.
