Miguel Angel Jimenez has no complaints with Ian Poulter's selection for the Ryder Cup team. European captain Nick Faldo chose Poulter and Paul Casey as wild card picks Sunday to fill out his 12-man team, overlooking Darren Clarke, who played in the last five Ryder Cups. "I don't think Nick made any mistake to take Ian Poulter and Paul Casey. They are both in the top 30 in the world rankings," Jimenez said Wednesday on the eve of the European Masters. "Faldo has made his own decision, and I think he has made the right decision."

I'd personally like to see Jimenez do a dance on Azinger's face.

Jimenez needs to get a haircut and stop mincing around golf courses.

I live in Dundee Scotland, right in between the Hardest & the most Famous course's in the world, (Carnoustie & St Andrews). Anyway as a Scot its hearkbreaking to see no country men taking to the course at Valhalla for the Ryder cup. Now im not suggesting Monty should be there on current form because quite franky he shouldnt be, but his Ryder cup record speaks for intself & he was our talisman, Darren Clarke should feel hard done by, he did everything he needed to do, he won the KLM Dutch open where as Poulter was basically told after his 2nd place finish at The Open he was in. I know alot of Scots (just like many others that cant stand Faldo) & are supporting the US team because of his questionable selections, not just the ommision of Monty but the fact he used his 2 picks on his own dirty country men !!

PS Jimenez really needs a haircut, Its about as bad as Rodman;s
