Jack: Task Force Puts Pressure On Young Players To Win

USA Today's Roxanna Scott reports that Jack Nicklaus spoke at length at the Creighton Farms Invitational about the state of the Ryder Cup and reiterated his view that the task force Task Force "Task Force" is "overkill".

But I thought this was a particularly shrewd point given the desire to inject the team with youth over veterans.

“I don’t really see the necessity to put the pressure on the young guys to win the Ryder Cup,” Nicklaus said. “They’ve got enough pressure on them week after week. When I was playing we had four major championships. Now we have four major championships, four world championships, the Players Championship, we’ve got the Olympics. We’ve got other significant events, they play all around the world.”
