Meanwhile In Other Captain-Player Drama News, Faldo Hastags Himself As "#sadlyaUseless Captain
/The luckiest man in the Phil Mickelson-Tom Watson brouhaha would seem to be Nick Faldo, who stepped in it Friday with his Sergio Garcia "useless" comments, then dug in by backing up his assertion, then did his best to apologize for the words not coming out right by succumbing to the perils of "live telly," reports James Corrigan in The Telegraph.
Corrigan writes:
García was asked whether he had heard from Faldo. “I have not. I really wouldn’t expect it anyway, but I’ve had it [congratulations] from everyone on this table [his team-mates] and a lot of other people and that’s really what means a lot to me,” said the 34-year-old, whose five Ryder Cup wins means he has now surpassed Faldo’s record as a player.
Faldo Tweeted after the Team Europe win...
@rydercupEUROPE Fantastic Euro win! Will always wish I could have inspired such passion and amazing play in 08! #sadlya"Useless"Captain
