I bungled it AGAIN. I got Coles confused with Dai Rees! You better have a serious down and out motion to low point to hit an embedded ball with a high draw (with a driver no less!) Anybody out there old enough to have watched
Sir Henry Cotton play, or swing? I have heard from bias sources that he was every bit as a good of a ball striker as Hogan. I think it was a top golf writer of the era that suggested that he had seen both at their peak and Cotton may have been better! Bias always comes into play on these things, though. Cotton believed in educated hands, though. I think the car tire may have been the original impact bag!

The guy who hit Driver out of a divot was Christie O'Conner jnr-or 'HIMSELF' -He could play ANY SHOT!

Afraid not. Christy O'Connor Senior was the man who hit the driver out the divot. My regular golfing partner saw it himself and we discuss it regularly. Also here in Ireland we refer to Christy Snr as "Himself".
Perhaps Junior can also hit a driver out of a divot but that's not what I was referring to in my post above.

Right you are Sean,my mistake-my earlier post regarding Troon should also have referenced Sr-"Himself".
I've committed a big sin in Ireland! Sorry Boys
At this moment in time the Ryder Cup is in crisis.
Two massive wins for Europe and the US members talking about how the Presidents Cup is actually a better event.
Whats next? If they lose this one will they say the Tavistock Cup is better?
Sad to say but what the Ryder Cup needs more than anything is an American win by half a point and all the tension and drama that goes along with it.
What it doesn't need is some of the nonsense that Azinger is spouting regarding Faldo. Its a game for gentlemen zinger - have your views but keep them private!
Add some experience and mental toughness to the squad by throwing in a top Champions Tour player or two. Give me a Jay Haas over several of the younger tour players on the "bubble".
Sequester the team for one full week prior to the match. You either agree to get together and practice, eat and commune with your teammates for a week or you don't play.
