Great golf on Sunday, as good a TV watching experience as you’re likely to see. As a fan of the Europeans it gave me great pleasure to hoist a Johnny Walker Red to salute their magnificent come-from behind accomplishment. A few thoughts:
1. Expect U.S. captain Davis Love III to take mucho heat at not playing the hot hand of Phil Mickelson / Keegan Bradley in the Saturday afternoon fourball competition. Phil says he asked Love not to play them in the PM, but a stronger captain would have said to Phil, “Duly noted. Now get your asses back out there”. I would have.
2. This just shows how wimpy the Americans are, and why they lose so many Ryder Cups. Simply put, it’s not life or death to them like it is for the Europeans. A true Goodboy would certainly understand that.
3. Can anyone deny that Tiger Woods is really just all about Tiger and his pursuit of Jack Nicklaus’ record of 18 majors? Tiger doesn’t care quill about the Ryder Cup, he cares only about himself. Watching him walk off the course to the parking lot all by himself spoke volumes about his feelings about the Ryder Cup.
4. Is there a golfer who has had as rough a year as Jim Furyk?
5. Judging by the press conferences afterwards, the Europeans are bigger drinkers than the Americans. Another reason to like them so much.
5. It was great to see Jose Maria Olazabal all emotional and recalling the great Seve Ballesteros in his reaction to his team’s victory. There was only one Seve, and for that, I tip my hat to his memory and the European team victory. Good for them.
