Why not have an actual Ryder Cup event with the top 10 US players vs. the top 10 European players?
You could run tournaments throughout the year in order to get your top 10 and the top player for each team would be a captain, and pick 2 more players as his captain choices. Have a 3 day tournaent that is streamed so that people can log on and watch the matches live.
You could even set the time so that if the event is held in europe then the actual time might be midnight in the states. I know people would be up for this...
Thoughts?
