A week ago I wrote that Corey Pavin should have picked Charlie Hoffman for the Ryder Cup Team over Stuart Cink. I’m surprised that nobody weighed in and asked about Rickie Fowler. While he may be a great young talent, he hasn’t played his way onto the team.
In the last 5 events going back to the Bridgestone Invitational on August 8, he hasn’t done better than 33rd. So much for riding a hot streak. He hasn’t won a PGA Tour event yet. Are there other players who would have brought more competitive punch to the team?
Did Rickie make it for the publicity draw, particularly among 20 and 30 somethings? After all, he has a ‘cool’ web site and he Tweets! Is this the future of pro golf?
