so, ryder cup starting next month. just got a shocker yesterday. Garcia is back in the fold of the ryder cup family. thank jaysus  so european side as it stands 1 Rory MCILROY 2 Justin ROSE 3 Graeme MCDOWELL 4 Paul LAWRIE 5 Francesco MOLINARI that's the first five. i can't really do anything right now until they update it. but Garcia is a definite. the first five here are definites. so u.s team, a whole lot easier than trying to figure out the european team.  1 Tiger Woods 2 Bubba Watson 3 Jason Dufner 4 Keegan Bradley 5 Webb Simpson 6 Zach Johnson 7 Matt Kuchar 8 Phil Mickelson so, they have 3 rookies, keegan bradley, webb simpson and jason dufner. and four captain's picks as well. mahan and stricker are 9th and 10th. i think he might go with furyk and maybe fowler or haas. 100% irish and european and darn proud too the ryder cup is coming!!!!!

ryder cup being played in Medinah Country Club (Medinah, Illinois) so we have our european team rory, garcia g-mac lawrie rose Molinari donald westwood peter hanson Martin Kaymer Nicolas Colsaerts-rookie Poulter. now, there's rumours going around that Kaymer might be standing aside and for some reason people are talking about putting harrington, fair enough 3 time major winner. but he's playing meh. and there are better players than him at the moment at the moment for the u.s.a side woods watson dufner-rookie simpson-rookie johnson kucher-rookie mickelson bradley.-rookie u.s.a have 4 wild card picks, my guess is furyk nick watney, maybe ricky fowler. come on europe 100% irish and european and darn proud too the ryder cup is coming!!!!!

Winning in the states is a tall order but if any european team can do it then this one can. Plenty of stateside experience and in-form players combined with inspirational captain equals a wager on europe at around 2.6

excuse the absence lads, i'm back at college and i'm sick with a viral infection. holy smokes batman. what a weekend, what an amazing sunday of golf. that was pure gold, honestly didn't think my nerves would be at me that much after saturday, sure i was hoping we would get close, so we wouldn't be humiliated like we humiliated them 6 years ago in ireland, sure i was hoping we would kick some american ass and actually win the ryder cup back, but even what i witnessed last night was unbelievable. seriously poulter, donald, rory, rose and lawrie, seriously, just wow, 5 straight points on the board and 5 wins rather comfortably. 3 majors winners among them, and i still believe in poulter, rose and donald are gonna win a major at some point, their games are two good not to. poulter played a blinder, seriously he loves the ryder cup, and why he's flamboyant at times, his passion and commitment to the ryder cup is beyond a shadow of doubt top class. i would as far as saying for the ryder cup, he's our generations seve, just on passion alone. Kaymer i absolutely adore you, i know i had my doubts, he had his doubts as well, he was almost gonna drop out because his form was off. but boy the saying "form is temporary, class is forever springs to my mind and it's soo true. amazing just amazing, seriously can't wait for 2 years time in scotland. 100% irish and european and darn proud too the ryder cup is coming!!!!!
