PGA: US stars back Tiger to shine

/noticias.info/

America's stars are all backing Tiger Woods to shine at the K Club this week despite the continued questioning of his appetite for the Ryder Cup.

The world number one's record in the competition does not befit his standing as a 12-time major winner, having accrued only eight points from a possible 20 in his four appearances so far.

"Anybody, whether a golf fan, media whoever, who says he doesn't care about the Ryder Cup really could not be further from the truth," said rookie Zach Johnson, while fellow debutant Brett Wetterich added: "It's a pretty neat feeling to have the best player in the world on your side."

Another first-timer JJ Henry added: "We all respect and admire what Tiger does on the golf course.

"We look up to him and the fact that every time he goes out and plays it seems like he does something else that's just unbelievable.

"He's an extraordinary talent but he's also a lot of fun to be around and I look on this as a great opportunity to to learn as a player."

Chad Campbell, at his second Ryder Cup, said he admired Woods' ability to be in contention in almost every event he played.

"Tiger goes out there every week and if he is not winning he's right there close to it," said the 32-year-old Texan. notas_de_prensa_archivo
