It’s the Presidents Cup this week, with the International team taking on the US. I’m flying out Monday morning to join team Captain Gary Player and the rest of the guys at Royal Montreal Golf Club in Canada, which is actually the oldest golf club in North America. This is the first time the Presidents Cup has visited Canada and we’ll be playing on Royal Montreal’s new-look Blue course, which has undergone significant renovation by the famous golf course architect Rees Jones. Seeing the two teams on paper I think it is shaping-up to be a very close contest.
Our team line-up is: Rory Sabbatini, Retief Goosen, Trevor Immelman, Geoff Ogilvy, Adam Scott, Stuart Appleby, Vijay Singh, Angel Cabrera, KJ Choi, Mike Weir and Nick O’Hern. The US team looks like this: Jim Furyk, Zach Johnson, Phil Mickelson, David Toms, Tiger Woods, Woody Austin, Stewart Cink, Lucas Glover, Charles Howell III, Hunter Mahan, Steve Stricker and Scott Verplank.
