Ryder Cup Ramblings
It appears that Tiger Woods has taken a leadership role on this year’s Ryder Cup team. Reports indicate that he took out the Ryder Cup rookies for a “get-to-know-you” dinner after he won this past Sunday. Not only that, but both he and Mickelson rescheduled their “previous commitments” so that they could join the rest of the team for the “bonding” trip to the K-Club.
I wonder if Tiger and the rest of the team is feeling some pressure this time around to at least be competitive and possibly even win. I do think it’s somewhat noble of Tiger to play “virtual” captain and provide some practical leadership, and probably a little playing advice. Probably the most ironic part of this is that this group of rookies will more than likely not be heard from again on a Ryder Cup team.
However, color me skeptical, but I think it’s going to take the top-5 players to play their absolute best and remove any possiblity of putting pressure on the rookies to help close the deal. Even if the Americans have a substantial lead come Sunday singles, the rookies inexperience will be exposed for all to see. Of course, the rooks could surprise everyone and run the table for the singles. Stranger things have happened.
