In case you neglected it, Brooks says he won't be in form to play the Presidents Cup so Tiger picked Rickie to update him. That became expected, but became it clever?
Second-guessing Tiger's choice is going to be a source for debate from now till the Cup is performed. And some of extraordinary articles have appeared just these days (links comply with) voicing their very own reviews:
- Rex Hoggard reported Brooks was out.
- Will Gray believes Tiger played it too safe
- Rex appears to think it was a good choice
- Rex also reports the US Team approved the pick
- And Cameron Morfit at PGATOUR.COM asks 'six burning questions' about the choice
However, given Rickie's performance this yr, I do suppose there were better picks. Kevin Na (gained 3 activities) and Kevin Kisner (gained the WGC-Match Play) each have awesome brief video games, or even Brendon Todd (with wins within the ultimate two occasions of the season) seems to be in better form. And all 3 have displayed unquestioned mental energy this yr.
But it is all water beneath the bridge now. While I like Rickie a lot, I just do not assume he turned into the excellent desire this time round and he is going to be underneath top notch strain to carry out. Maybe Tiger believes Rickie just needs a vote of self assurance to shake him out of his funk, the same way Adam Scott wished one from Greg Norman a few years lower back.
I guess we will find out quickly enough.
