Weekend wrap...Langer, Park, legends grow.

It won't happen but man I'd like to see Paul McGinley choose Bernhard Langer for his Euro Ryder Cup team on September 2. After he came from 4 shots back to win last night for the 5th time this year, Mark O'Meara who came 2nd.. yet again said it all.." Bernhard is playing the best golf of his career over the last 2 years and Paul McGinley if you hear this, you can't go wrong picking Bernhard to go with you to Gleneagles.. I played good but this guy is just tougher than all the rest of us out here.."




McGinley is on record for saying he is leaning to selecting a player in form that is playing regularly on the European Tour..Bernhard who is as fit as he was when he was 30, unlike many of his colleagues who obviously have let their fitness go was the European Tour's captain at Oakland Hills in 2004 when his team routed Tiger and the USA 18 1/2 to 9 1/2 and as a player he has a 21-15-6 record in 10 appearances..




Inbee Park won the year's final major on the LPGA Tour over a very nervous Brittany Lincicome, this was her 5th major for the little south Korean and she is only 26,and is in London today for this week's CP Canadian Women's Open..
