Looking at the game itself, this is incomprehensible. Wuds has played lousy (the few times he's played) since April. There are probably 10-15 US players than have played well this season that deserve the spot, especially those Americans competing in the FedEx over the next month.
It also sends the message that Wuds can still do whatever he wants and that he's bigger than the game. The main reason he was picked is for because the tour, sponsors, and networks want the ratings; it's certainly not because they want the USA team to win by picking the best players.
Freddy's choice disgusts me. He's complained about back pain for years, but after his win in the Senior's Open last week, he said "it's not my back, it's my hips." Well maybe if he got off his knees they wouldn't hurt him so bad.
The only thing I can say is either boycott the event and its sponsors or cheer for the Euros. I'm planning on doing both.
