10:49 AM ET 11.20 | In three years, the United States will play Europe in Scotland. By then, it will have been 21 years since an American team has lifted the Ryder Cup on European soil. If the PGA of America is serious about breaking that drought, Fred Couples will lead them into Gleneagles. History says that captaining a Presidents Cup team automatically eliminates him from the running, such is the enmity between the PGA, which runs the Ryder Cup, and the PGA Tour, which created the Presidents Cup to rival it in 1994. The politics need to change.

Another peeing contest between a bunch of idiots and a bunch of morons (I'll let you decide who gets which label). I like the Ryder Cup and would love to see Freddie captain the US team in Scotland. Pretty sure he'd love it too as would most golf fans. Make it happen PGA of America.

It is fun watching the Europeans take it to the country club set...especially when the weather and course conditions aren't ideal.
