Firstly congrats to Blue and Jason on your selection for the US Ryder Cup team !
It has been a very difficult job for me during the last week or so to finalised my selection for the last 2 players to complete Team World for this year's Ryder Cup. One of the best thing that came out of the qualifying rounds for me was to see the number of excellent and experience International players that participated. It is this very reason that has caused me to spend a lot more time than i thought needed to finally came up with what I think is the best decision that will benefit the team as a whole.
Without further delay, I'd like to announce the Captain's pick for Team World are -
Geordieles performed wonderfully well in the qualifying and despite a slow start he came back strongly and posted good scores under enormous pressure in the last 2 rounds to finished in 10th place. He's player with plenty of experience, has a very good consistent game, and proven to be an excellent player in team matches with an awesome winning record with his partner JulioMoot on the WGT Ladder's Guild. I'm very confident this successful partnership will be a valuable part of our team.
Infinito is considered by many to be one of the top players of this site and his record in WGT Tournaments and Ready-Gos speaks for itself. In my analysis of a group of 15 short-listed players to be considered for Team World I've included many factors and graded the players using a points system, Infinito finished well on top. Here is the full result:
I have every confidence that Infinito will perform well in the tourney and makes many valuable contributions to the team.
Everyone please join me in congratulating all the players that have been successful in making Team World for this year's Ryder Cup. That completes the selection process for Team World and I'd like to thanks Seveking for his effort in putting it all together. I'm very happy with the result as I think this has all the make up of a very strong team with the right mix of excellent players and I'm supremely confident that we'll bring home the Cup for the community of International players on WGT.
GO TEAM WORLD ! GO THE RYDER CUP !
