Deadly dozen



What if the Ryder Cup returned to its roots and was contested by the United States and Great Britain and Ireland?

Firstly, there¹d be no room for the likes of Garcia, Stenson and Fasth. Secondly, Nick Faldo would have to make it up with Monty.

Just for fun, here¹s my British and Irish dozen to take on the States at Valhalla.

Justin Rose
Padraig Harrington
Luke Donald
Ian Poulter
Lee Westwood
Paul Casey
Colin Montgomerie
Nick Dougherty
Darren Clarke
Bradley Dredge
Graeme McDowell
Rory McIlroy

Now I don't think this particular dozen would disgrace themselves in the States if Continental Europe decided not to show up in September. What do you think?
