I know this may sound crazy, but I think a lot of people forget how great of a player Faldo was.

i would say he was the best player in the world from '87- till tiger

i know greg norman was the #1 player for a lot of those years but faldo clearly knew who to close in majors better than the shark

we never got to really see faldo and seve go head to head , when faldo got real good seve's back was shot , i don't know who would have won that matchup

but i don't think seve would have folded like a chair against nick the way the shark did in the '90 open and then later at the '96 masters , but, we will never know

Golf is deader than dead. No Tiger, no juice.

Fourball pairings Friday:
Mickelson/D. Johnson v. Westwood/Kaymer
Cink/Kuchar v. McIlroy/McDowell
Woods/Stricker v. Poulter/Fisher
Watson/Overton v. Donald/Harrington

So he sits Furyk in the first matches? Why? The probable Player of the Year coming off the shot of his life?

Love the pairings, but I think the Euros will be up 2.5-1.5 after the morning.

Haven't you read my posts here and the replies to them? That's the underlying brilliance of the Ryder Cup I've been told. The incredible strategy this shows and the fun we get to have watching a great player like Furyk who just won 10 million I heard watch other players hit golf shots. That's why this event is so great. We get to watch match play wizard Ricky Fowler watch golf shots too. Perhaps Furyk and Fowler can play bingo with the Molinari brothers in the morning or have a putting contest on the practice green. That would be awesome theatre.

When you hear comments like, "I don't think I have ever seen this much standing water on a course and have them still playing" and "It's hard to believe they are still playing out there", you are sure to get some fine competition.

Early in the round, Euros are better mudders, as you would expect.
