Humor me for a minute... If the last two matches had gone the Internationals way, the score have been 17-17.

If you were captain, who would you have sent out to play the sudden death playoff to determine the outcome? For both teams...

I don't think there would have been a sudden death playoff, it would have been tied for another two years. But if there were, I'd have sent out Dimarco if I were Jack or Goosen if I were Gary.

Are you sure about that? The way I remember it from two years ago, is that the matches were 17-17, and the captains designated Tiger and Ernie to play sudden death to decide a winner. After three holes were halved, it was too dark to continue. That is when they agreed to share the cup.

Gary and Jack agreed that it was too much pressure to put on two guys, so they decided that if the matches had ended 17-17, they would have shared the Cup again.

Oh wow, I didn't realize that. That IS a huge amount of pressure.

To keep my thread going, I would have picked Mickelson for the US, and either Goosen or Campbell for the Internationals.

Then it should have become a match between the Captains!!! Mano - a - Mano Just like the old days baby!!!!!

I would've picked K.Perry for the USA and Nick O'Hern for the INT.

of course, i'm biased

stagday

same pick here. These guys were playing great this weekend.

I would love to see Jack versus Gary. That would have been great.

But if I was the captiains it would be DiMarco v. Scott.

Both were clutch all week

Probably DiMarco VS. Campbell

Jim Furyk for sure for the US and Retief for the Int.

It's tough to choose between DiMarco and Furyk for the U.S. I'd say Furyk, however, since he got a chance to rest between the end of his round and the potential playoff round, plus his undefeated record for the week.
For the Internationals, I'd pick Goosen, again because of his record and for the rest factor.

If it were, it would have definitely have been Goosen for the International, no doubt. Guy went unbeaten and beat Tiger. For the U.S., I think Jack would have went with Mickelson or DiMarco. Tough call. Not Tiger b/c of his injury.
