Is Tom Watson (Ryder Cup) worried?

Several players on our Ryder Cup team are plus-plus on Tour Championship....Yipsters!

He very well may be worried. Out of the top 5 players in the world, Europe has 4 of them. #1-Rory McIlroy #3 Sergio Garcia #4 Henrik Stenson #5 Justin Rose. They also have #12 Martin Kaymer and #17 Graeme McDowell. That gives them 6 players in the top 20. However, we have 11 players in the top 20 with #6 bubba Watson, #7 furyk, #9 Matt Kuchar, #10 Phil Mickelson, #11 Rickie Fowler, #13 Jordan Spieth, 14 Tiger, #15 Zack Johnson, #16 Dustin Johnson, #18 Jimmy Walker, and #20 Hunter Mahan.
So while it looks like Europe has the top players, it looks like we have more depth. Should be a good Ryder Cup.

I must have missed it because I thought Tiger was not playing in the Ryder Cup

You're right. Tiger will not be in the Ryder Cup. I wonder if Watson can possibly leave off Billy Horschel after his performance the last few weeks.
