The US Team

Well, here's a list of the full US Ryder Cup Team (* means they are Captain's Picks):

Mickelson
Cink
Perry
Furyk
Kim
Leonard
Curtis
Weekley
Campbell*
Holmes*
Mahan*
Stricker*

An observation: Azinger had to skip Woody Austin and DJ Trahan to get to some of the picks on the list.

I'm happy that JB Holmes is on the team. Hopefully, he will get to play. Ordinarily I wouldn't think about whether or not the players will actually play in the event, but after last time and Tom Lehman's sucky plan of sitting some of the players out for most of the whole event, I now can't trust the US Team to be fair and give everyone a chance to make some career/life-long memories. At least Azinger won't cave into the pressure of feeling the need to play Woods no matter how much he sucks - he won't be there. The US team might actually win a few points this time.
