Gazza_8 233 Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 Monty announces his squad in half an hour for the competition that starts in early October. I think Europe will run away with it as the Yanks squad doesn't look all that intimidating or exciting. The Europeans who have autimatically qualified are: Miguel angel Jimenez Peter Hanson Lee Westwood Rory McIlroy Martin Kaymer Graeme McDowell Ian Poulter Ross Fisher Fransesco Molinari Monty has 3 wildcard picks but there are 4 top class players chasing the 3 picks. Paul Casey Padraig Harrington Justin Rose Luke Donald And then there's Eduardo Molinari who has just won the Johnnie Walker Championship at Gleneagles and playing the golf of his life. Monty has a tough decision on his hands. Personally, I'd pick Rose, Molinari and Harrington. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whosthedado 1,464 Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 The Ryder Cup is about the only time I actually watch a golf event. Should be good. Europe definitely look favourites on paper. Never know what nerves could do to some though especially the rookies 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazza_8 233 Posted August 29, 2010 Author Share Posted August 29, 2010 Monty's three wildcard picks are Harrington, Donald and E.Molinari. I can't believe he picked Luke Donald, he has done absolutely nothing this season. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnnyk 158 Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 harrington has also been murder, and does not have a great RC record. casey, rose and E.Molinari would've been my picks. we have 5 rookies this year and he's only picked Paddy for experience IMO..... 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gazza_8 233 Posted September 7, 2010 Author Share Posted September 7, 2010 Corey Pavin has picked his 4 wildcards and Tiger Woods was named as one of them. The others were Stewart Cink, Ricky Fowler and Zach Johnson. They join Phil Mickelson, Hunter Mahan, Bubba Watson, Jim Furyk, Steve Stricker, Dustin Johnson, Jeff Overton and Matt Kuchar who automatically gained a place in the American Ryder Cup team. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CraigRFC 0 Posted September 7, 2010 Share Posted September 7, 2010 Think he is taking a risk with Woods tbh although it is obviously a risk worth taking. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy steel 0 Posted September 7, 2010 Share Posted September 7, 2010 Don't know Fowler, but Johnson was superb in Ireland 4 years ago. Still can't forgive Cink for beating Watson. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
