In golf, you're all alone out there, you're trying to beat each other's butts every week. Earlier, Woods acknowledged that the unparalleled pressure of the Ryder Cup was getting to him. I felt it all the way around. It's definitely out there, no doubt about it. In America, we're not oriented to team play.
Golf is such an individual sport, so cut-throat.
This will teach him an important lesson. Already, he's talking about trying to make the team for the next Ryder Cup. On Friday, Woods and his friend Mark O'Meara beat Montgomerie and Langer 3 and 2 in their opening four-ball match. But that was Woods' only win. Later Friday, Woods and O'Meara lost 5 and 3 to Langer-Montgomerie in foursomes.
