WHOSE TO BLAME?

So now that the Ryder Cup tumult and the shouting is starting to die down, who is to be praised and who to be blamed?
So now that the tumult and the shouting is starting to die down, who is to be praised and who to be blamed for the US triumph and the European defeat at the 37th Ryder Cup on Sunday?
Was it Paul Azinger, the US skipper, and European captain Nick Faldo who were the hero and the villain of the piece in this exciting Valhalla show in Kentucky.
Or was it perhaps the players themselves, some of whom, like Ian Poulter, unexpectedly brought great form to the table, while others like two-time major winner this year, Padraig Harrington, were a huge disappointment.
Or was it perhaps, that noisy – and in Lee Westwood’s view – nasty 13th man who played the greatest role on seeing off the defending champions and sending them back to Europe with an empty trophy bag.
We’d love to hear what you, the reader thinks, so do drop us a line.
Cheers,
