President's Cup Update II

Hello. What stands out about the two President's Cup teams in my mind? The following two things:

1. According to the World Rankings, the Rest Of The World (ROTW) team is much stronger on paper. They have a stronger 12th man at #28 (Stuart Appleby), and their top 6 as a group are much stronger, especially after considering the past records of Woods, Furyk and Mickelson in team play.
2. There should not be any Canadians on the ROTW. Mike Weir showed again he cannot seem to finish a tournament, shooting 74 on Sunday at the AT&T National. Stephen Ames seems to have back problems affecting his play. None of the people on the list should be replaced by a Canadian. If anything, they should be playing with the Americans.

Can things change between now and September? Perhaps. If someone on either side does well in the majors, it may mean a promotion.

Regards,

Steve
