Ok now that we’ve all had a little bit of time to digest this and the heartbreaking loss that the U.S. suffered earlier today, I thought I’d put together a punch list of my observations from the 2010 Ryder Cup. In no particular order, just some things that crossed my mind while watching.

The Ryder Cup is just about two weeks away and I think the majority of us would potentially rather skip right over the season ending “playoffs” and get right to the bi-annual golf slugfest.

Johnson drained putts from all over the place to make a very strong statement to [...]

Both the European and the U.S. teams had [...]

With Tiger’s fourth place finish at the U.S. Open last week, it vaulted him to seventh place on the Ryder Cup standings. Tiger hasn’t stated when he’ll play again, so for how long he holds that spot, is anybody’s guess. Which could then lead to Pavin using one of his four Captain’s picks on Woods.
“I [...]

Yesterday Ryder Cup Captain, Cory Pavin, announced the selections for his assistant captains for the 2010 Ryder Cup. The Ryder Cup will be played October 1-3 in Wales. For the first time in a while, the U.S. team is the defending champion after beating Europe in 2008 at Valhalla.
A couple of Captain Pavin’s selections have come [...]
