The Ryder Cup. Until they change it I won't care. Ummm, you have 12 players on a team. 12 divided by 2 is 6 not 4. To have 8 of the best professional golfers in the world stand around watching other people people play the 4 ball and foursomes two mornings and afternoons is ridiculous. I have never comprehended the logic of not having every golfer play every match. Pure stupidity is this event. The President's Cup is a hair better as I think they only have 4 of the best in the world watching each morning and afternoon the first two days.

I wonder if Ryder Cup officials will ever figure this out? 8 guys with the potential to shoot a 62 are watching golf shots instead of hitting them. Go ahead and make it 8 man teams, then it would be worth watching. I remember back in the day, Europe would always sit guys the entire two days and have them only play singles when they weren't as deep as the US. I felt them winning the Ryder Cup was meaningless doing this. It proved nothing.
