It’s now official. Luke Donald. Not a big surprise, but wonder how much he follows the ET..

He seems a bit too nice for something like this. It probably helps to be an a-hole like any boss.

Come to think of it, who can claim to be the best Ryder Cup captains of all time? Who is the benchmark?!

It’s a money grab.

Re. the team element: I like the idea that everybody have something to play for. Unlike regular stroke play tournaments, even if you’re in 28th position, you can still be in a situation where every shot counts.

They have incorporated some interesting ideas. I suppose the guaranteed money for each event should help reduce conservative play, help players to show off their skills a bit more and create a better spectacle?
