Ian Poulter's Ryder Cup clubs
LOUISVILLE, Ky. --
There was controversy when Nick Faldo decided to use a captain's pick on Ian Poulter, instead of selecting Darren Clarke or Colin Montgomerie. However, his decision was vindicated by Poulter's outstanding and inspired play. In fact, Poulter's four points were the most earned by any player on either team.
Here are the clubs he had in his bag:
Driver: Cobra Speed Pro S (8.5°)
Fairway woods: Cobra Speed Pro (15°, 18°)
Irons: Cobra Pro MB (3-PW)
Wedges: Titleist Vokey Design Spin Milled (54°, 60°)
Putter: Odyssey Tri Force 3

Are you guys idiots? Mick played fantastic golf on Friday, picked up one and a half points, and helped set the tone for the win.
That he lost Sunday was a function of a single round - anyone, anywhere, can lose in an 18-hole round.
You don't become #2 in the world on press clippings, you get there on merit - wins, and lots of them.
Get rid of the bluebloods? Heck, you wouldn't field a team on either side. Every player and coach on either side is a multimillionaire, including Boo Weekley who we all love.

I think, finally, getting blue
collar in the game, has made
the difference..we had too much
blue blood!!! I agree with Doug,
Mickleson is sooo over-rated...

I, for the life of me cannot see why phil mickelson is even considered for the ryder cup matches. I know he is ranked #2 in the world, but give me a break, I am sure there was another American golfer (rookie) who would have provided much more. He is just miserable
