10 things that need to happen for an International win
Oh dear. I fear the worst here. The Internationals need to win 8 of the 12 singles matches on the final day of the 2009 Presidents Cup to win. Ana amazing last few holes from Tiger yesterday turned what might have been a one point margin into a three point one.
For the Internationals to win, and for me to win my Presidents Cup wager with One Eyed Golfer, here’s 10 things which need to happen.
- Angel Cabrera, Camilo Villegas and Retief Goosen need to turn it around fast. None have won a match yet.
- Retief needs to confuse everybody on every hole. Not just the 18th.
- Someone tell Y.E. Yang he can lift any golf bag he wants if he wins.
- All Internationals need to show the grit of Robert Allenby.
- Some famous International basketballer needs to be flown in to counter the useless assistant role of Michael Jordan. Say it with me, Yao Ming.
- We need some of our own rowdy, raucous and potentially match changing International golf fans in the gallery. Do they exist?
- Steve Stricker needs to miss a putt.
- Adam Scott and Geoff Ogilvy must win. We care down here and there’s a grief train coming.
- Tim Clark needs to play two matches at once.
- Greg Norman may need to play.
I think Tim Clark or Ernie Els should have been up against Woods. Nevertheless, it gives the golf world another Yang v Woods show.

Is there a special sauce I should use on ‘croc kebobs’…???
