I'm not a golfer, but I sure as hell hope Tiger and company kick those euroweenies' butts all the way back to the clubhouse!.....
Man, I hope Lehman doesn't feel the need to use all 12 guys in the pairing rounds.
That said, I hope he doesn't try to "overthink" the strategy.
His captains picks suggest he's trying to do just that.

This is a bit of a novelty Europe being favourites for once, it's making me nervous! Is justified though and I think we will win handily (just thought I'd put that in now so you can all bring it up later!).
I see we're still perpetuating this myth about Tiger Woods being the 'best player in the world' though. Tiger Woods is the best player in the world at strokeplay golf, but the simple fact is that he is not the best player in the world (or on the American team) at matchplay golf.
