10:48 AM ET 01.05 | Colin Montgomerie would be mad to entertain the thought of returning as Europe's captain for the 2014 Ryder Cup, according to triple major winner Padraig Harrington. The players committee will meet during the January 17-20 Abu Dhabi Championship to decide on the successor to Spain's Jose Maria Olazabal at the biennial team event, with 2011 British Open champion Darren Clarke and Ireland's Paul McGinley the frontrunners. Clarke, however, said last month that he believes Europe should appoint a leader with a "huge presence", suggesting 2010 skipper Montgomerie should be considered. "There's not a chance, after what he went through last time, that Colin would ever take the captaincy again," Harrington told Reuters in an interview. "He puts so much more on the line than anybody else - it would be madness for him. He's had a great Ryder Cup playing career, he's been a successful captain - why risk all that? "I can't see in any shape or form him agreeing to do it again."

Two new threads in 2 days??????????? Wow!
As for Monty, if they ask him again I think he'll do it. There's really no pressure on the Euro's at this point. The law of averages says that the Yanks will win one sooner or later.

Monty will do it if he thinks he can help the European team, he wants to win that much. He does not have to be the captain as his Rider Cup legacy is so great he can walk off into the sunset with it.

Did you catch any of the tournament down in Hawaii today Harry? The conditions were almost comical, though I do feel bad if any of the locals were negatively ($$$) impacted by the weather.

No problem. All they have to do is contact Bandybooboo's neighbor's step-mother and they'll soon be making $82 an hour.

To me, the Ryder Cup isn't golf...golf is not a team sport where you rely on someone else.
The individuality of golf is why I enjoy playing it and watching it as such...it is not some team, scramble, pick it up that's good format.
