In the end, this country is still the best in golf.....they had to include every single European country to make the event competitive. I've also never liked that every single player doesn't play every single match. Just have 6 foursome and fourball matches the first two days. Shouldn't depth be part of it also?? Sorry, I just get a kick out of the Euros winning for some reason....don't know why. For some reason it seems guys like Poulter and Garcia get more up for this than majors.

I've been battling a guy over a certain player that he says has been choking, and won't give knowledge to how well the actual winners have been playing.

Well anyways, I mentioned how said player went 5-0 in 2011 President's Cup, where all players get to play every match, he says President's Cup is not as pressure packed as the Ryder Cup. Really?!

Anyways the point was to mention that the President's Cup they allow all members to play in all matches (repetitive I know).

Default Johnny Miller not thrilled by choices

As always, he has an opinion critical.

How must Watson feel now with his choices , with Hoerschel playing his ass off for the past few weeks. Would be nice to have a hot hitter on our side going in now.

#1 F*ck Johhny
#2 Horschel has had 2 years to play his way onto the team.

IMO...one if the biggest reasons Watson picked Webb is because he is the only dude on the team willing to put up with Bubba's crybaby act on the course.
