Tiger on Ryder Cup Team??

Ryder Cup Captain Corey Pavin raised a few
eyebrows this week when he said Tiger Woods was
NOT a shoe-in to be on this years team. The Ryder
Cup competition pits the worlds national teams against
each other. Today golfing great Jack Nicklaus came to
the aid of Woods when he said Pavin should be checked
with a brain scan if he decides to bypass Woods for this
years American team. The 70-year old Nicklaus has never
been an outspoken player in his career, but told reporters,
"If you're going to have a team made up of the best players
in your country, then Tiger should be at the top of the list."
Nicklaus admitted that Woods is going through some
personal problems with his rumored divorce from wife Elin,
but that has no bearing on his golf game. The team must be
assembled and ready to play by October, and now Pavin has been
scolded by one of the best for even thinking about omitting
Woods. Tiger returned to the game after taking time off after
his extra-marital affairs were made public. His play in the Masters
Tournament was creditable, but the following week he failed to
make the cut after the first round. Having said that, he is still the
best player in the country and probably the world. Corey Pavin
needs to get his priorities straight and decide what is best for
America.... and his Ryder Cup team.
