Re: If the Ryder Cup started today

The US had won 2 and lost 3 in the five RCs previous to 1994, and only lost 1 PC since 1994. Only 3 Americans are in the World top 10 -- which is biased towards the US tour. So I think it is more complicated.

Suffice it to say that the U.S. dominated the RC and then Europe won 4 of 5. What happened during this time frame? The U.S. was introduced into another team competition.
The solution: have the Euros play the ROtW in a team competition every 1/3 year so you have: RC one year, next year PC, and then next year Euros vs ROtW. Rinse and repeat.
Lastly, you don't want to get into a discussion of Americans lacking in talent. The U.S. is the world's best golfing nation in terms of pro talent. Period. End of story. The Euros haven't even won a major this decade. C'mon man...don't waste my time with this non-sense.
