Title: Azinger to be Named Ryder Cup Captain Post by: dystopia on November 01, 2006, 02:26:49 PM I hadn't seen this before, but this had been speculated.
Golf Channel reports Azinger to be next captain http://www.thegolfchannel.com/core.aspx?page=15101&dv=6975225&select=21121 **edit** it's actually an AP story on the Golf Channel site.

No. The Euros will own the Ryder Cup until the Americans can figure out how to play/win as a team. Title: Re: Azinger to be Named Ryder Cup Captain Post by: dystopia on November 07, 2006, 12:32:50 PM Interesting. I didn't see this earlier that Azinger will get 4 captain's picks. Probably still won't matter, though.
http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/golf/291360_golf07.html Quote Paul Azinger took over the U.S. Ryder Cup team in more ways than one, persuading the PGA of America to give him four captain's picks and revamping the criteria so that money and majors determine who makes the team.

tw the architect already? wtf. par 90, 18 holes of ... 600 yard par 5's with no rough/trees on the right of the fairway. LOL Title: Re: Azinger to be Named Ryder Cup Captain Post by: Uisce Beatha on November 07, 2006, 06:11:47 PM Take a look at the top 50 players in the world rankings. I know this doesn't match the criteria used for team selection but, seriously, if you had to take the top twelve for each team who'd you rather captain?
Europe (and the rest of the world for that matter) are better and deeper than the United States. The States has the best player in the solar system and probably the better top three but after that, forget it. U.S.A. Europe Tiger Woods, USA Jim Furyk, USA Phil Mickelson, USA Adam Scott, Aus Vijay Singh, Fij Retief Goosen, SAf Luke Donald, Eng Ernie Els, SAf Sergio Garcia, Spn Geoff Ogilvy, Aus Padraig Harrington, Ire Henrik Stenson, Swe Trevor Immelman, SAf David Howell, Eng Paul Casey, Eng David Toms, USA Davis Love-III, USA Colin Montgomerie, Sco Jose M Olazabal, Spn Chris DiMarco, USA Angel Cabrera, Arg Tim Clark, SAf Stewart Cink, USA Michael Campbell, NZl Chad Campbell, USA Stuart Appleby, Aus Rod Pampling, Aus Choi Kyung-Ju, Kor Darren Clarke, NIr Nick O'Hern, Aus Ian Poulter, Eng Joe Durant, USA Carl Pettersson, Swe Robert Karlsson, Swe Rory Sabbatini, SAf Shingo Katayama, Jpn Arron Oberholser, USA Ben Crane, USA Stephen Ames, Can Thomas Bjorn, Den Mike Weir, Can Brett Wetterich, USA Robert Allenby, Aus Lucas Glover, USA Bart Bryant, USA Niclas Fasth, Swe Scott Verplank, USA Zach Johnson, USA Kenny Perry, USA Johan Edfors, Swe Title: Re: Azinger to be Named Ryder Cup Captain Post by: Uisce Beatha on November 07, 2006, 06:13:33 PM After I posted that I read between the colors and I think the U.S.A. is toast in next year's Presidents' Cup too. LOL.
