Never mind that Adam Scott has missed 10 of 18 cuts and has taken a hiatus from swing coach Butch Harmon. Greg Norman still picked fellow Aussie Scott as a captain’s pick, along with Ryo Ishikawa of Japan. Said Norman: “When you look back a year ago, Adam was the No. 3 player in the world. So everybody goes through a slump.” (More) Was this choice of Scott a no-brainer … or a no-brainer? What say you dear Readers? Was someone else more deserving? Perhaps Rory Sabbatini? KJ Choi?
Meanwhile, Fred Couples picked US Open winner Lucas Glover and Hunter Mahan.
Here are the teams:
US Team: Tiger Woods, Phil Mickelson, Steve Stricker, Kenny Perry, Zach Johnson, Stewart Cink, Sean O’Hair, Jim Furyk, Anthony Kim, Justin Leonard, Lucas Glover, and Hunter Mahan.
International Team: Geoff Ogilvy, Vijay Singh, Camilo Villegas, Retief Goosen, Ernie Els, Angel Cabrera, Mike Weir, Robert Allenby, Y.E. Yang, Tim Clark, Ryo Ishikawa, and Adam Scott.
