Made America Great Again: Team USA Wins The 41st Ryder Cup
/My quick take before writing up some thoughts on the epic Phil-Sergio match I was privileged to watch from beginning to end:
--Team USA pulled more correct strings and used its depth to ultimately prevail handily.
--Darren Clarke's strong views on experience backfired with the performances of Lee Westwood and Martin Kaymer.
--Hazeltine National works very well as a Ryder Cup venue because it lent enough interest to the action and thanks to the amazing conditioning by Chris Tritabaugh's team, never in any way negatively impacted the matches. Kerry Haigh's ultra-safe Sunday holes looked more like a pro-am setup, but were probably almost too bland. Better to err that way than the other way around.
--The Task Force. Our American heroes!
