I hope it will be close and that no team wins all the time. About 50 - 50 will be best in the long run. Therefore it was a good thing that USA wun last time. But this time...
[QUOTE=BerntR;75692]He is good, but not that good. His majors record is excellent, but there are a lot of european players who have done better outside the majors than Harrington.[/quote]
Such as?
Westwood? Monty? Casey?
All good players but the truth is that Monty would swap all of his order of merit titles for just one major, Padraig has three, you don't get three by accident. It is majors that define a players career. The bashing that Padraig is getting from european media beggars belief and I think could cause serious disunity amongst the team. If we remember the last contentious captain's pick, it was when Woosie went with Clarke and Westwood and left out Thomas Bjorn. We all know how that ended up at the K-Club!
No-one is saying that Rose and Casey weren't worthy of being in the mix, but Harrington got the pick and it is time for the media to drop the issue and start getting behind the team.

Well, it's a wrap, and what a great victory for Europe, its team and its Captain. The USA team battled hard down the stretch, but the deficit at day's beginning proved too much.
