Rory Just Woke Up a Sleeping Giant

Fresh off a third-place finish at the PGA Championship last weekend, Rory McIlroy is turning his attention to the Ryder Cup, indicating that he wants to face Tiger Woods in October. "I would love to face him," McIlroy said in an interview with the BBC on Monday. "Unless his game rapidly improves in the next month or so, I think anyone in the European team would fancy his chances against him." McIlroy is not convinced that Woods, who failed to qualify for the Ryder Cup for the first time, deserves one of U.S. captain Corey Pavin's four wild-card picks but still expects the No. 1 golfer to be on the American team.

I've been saying the same thing forever now. Tiger will get his game back and then it's lights out for the rest of the field. Like bring your protective eye wear because it's gonna be a laser show.  He's in the same realm as Kobe or MJ where they fuel off of other guys talking shit about them. Up until now, everybody was afraid to piss off Tiger. They all said he's gonna find his stroke and he'll be fine after a few reps on tour but it took a 21 year old irish boy to get the competitive juices flowing. Just a little something that kick starts the mojo. And it doesn't hurt that Europeans talk like gay assholes. "I think anyone would fancy his chances against him." What the fuck does that mean? Don't be cute with your phrasing. If you think you can beat Tiger, Say you can beat tiger. Don't put a skirt on and tip toe around it with your fancy shmancy talk and quick quips.
