The Full Monty Shows In Team Events

Hello. Congrats to Colin Montgomerie for winning the World Cup Sunday. Scotland defeated the US in a playoff.
Is it now time to say Colin Montgomerie is the greatest team player in golf history? I cannot think of anyone past or present who can equal Monty's team performances. And only Sergio Garcia is even in the running to get Monty's crown.
Having said that, why hasn't Monty been able to play the same way individually? While his European Tour exploits have been above average, the fact he hasn't won a golf major will always be a bleamish. Of course he could still win one, but the odds are getting greater with each passing year.
Whatever happens to Monty from now on, he will be remembered for his team performances. What's his secret? I'm guessing he hits shots knowing he can rely on his partner if something goes wrong. Many of us (myself included) are worried about hitting a shot that will put our partner in trouble. Obviously Monty doesn't think that way.
Congrats Colin for Scotland's first ever World Cup win!

Regards,
Steve
