In Golf: The USA is a Big Underdog

Dateline: Scotland

September 2014 – Ryder’s Cup

Already down 5 to 3 (and then 10 to 6 after Day 2), the twelve-man American team has two days of golf matches to comeback and win the cup.  The USA group of Furyk, Watson, Kuchar, Fowler, Mickelson, Spieth, Zack Johnson, Walker, Mahan, Bradley, Reed, and Simpson are trying to pull off a win in Europe that has not been seen in 21 years.

Furthermore, the European team has four of the top six-ranked professional golfers in the world (#1 Rory McIlroy, #3 Sergio Garcia, #5 Henrik Stenson, and #6 Justin Rose).

Eight matches are finished and 16 are to come.  Around here we will be up at 1 a.m. MDT to be witness to history. USA! USA! USA!
