Even though next year's match will be played in France, I must admit to a little anxiety about Europe's chances.
Thomas BjΓΈrn, as captain doesn't fill me with optimism, although I said the same about Paul McGinley, but the guys on whom we've depended are so out of form it's embarrassing.
Rory can't make a cut at the weekend
Ditto for Kaymer
Ditto for Dubuisson
Ditto for Westie
Ditto for Donaldson
Poulter was in danger of losing his PGA tour card
Rose has been an also ran since the Masters
Willett is....where ?
Casey has rejected selection
Garcia is in decent form
Rahm is in decent form.
Molinari is in decent form
Pieters was in decent form but has gone AWOL recently
Fleetwood seems OK although he didn't make the FEDEX Cup playoffs
Lowry, Sullivan, Hatton, Wiesberger and Johnson are flattering to deceive.
The Scottish golfers ?....Shhhhhhh
The Scandi golfers ? One or two are OK. Noren, Kjeldsen
Captain Bjorn is going to have to boot a few arses and remind them of how awful we were before Tony Jacklin took over
The USA team in contrast is looking pretty awesome. DJ, Spieth, Fowler, Justin Thomas, Kuchar, etc.
