Should Jim Furyk Be A Captain's Pick?

John Strege makes the case that after Jim Furyk's latest tough loss and career victory total of 16/one major,  it will be tough for the veteran to crack the World Golf Hall of Fame.

But a more pressing issue is the question facing Ryder Cup Davis Love in a few weeks. Furyk sits 11th in the Ryder Cup standings. With only the top 8 securing spots and, for the first time in decades, a wealth of solid potential captain's selections, the Captain faces a different dilemma.

Is Furyk the steady presence and designated veteran Tiger-partner Love should select over Steve Stricker? Or would one of the younger players behind Furyk--Fowler, Snedeker, Johnson, Haas--offer a more compelling short and long term selection for Team USA?

After all, maybe it's time for Tiger to assume one of the veteran roles and serve as the steady presence for a younger player?

Strange but interesting times to be the U.S. Captain.
