Dear U.S.A. - Are the best golfers coming through?

Hey, I like pizazz as much as the next guy - Camilo (boring as hell interview, though I love the game) is my favorite after Tiger. Everyone always jumps on "next great Euro" though and NONE of them have panned out since Faldo left the game. Really, who has stepped up and actually WON something? Sergio has won ONCE in the last 4 years. Ian Poulter has won ONCE on the PGA tour. Paul Casey - ONCE.

it's because the european courses are so different to the American courses.

Look at Mcllroy, was +5 last time I was watching last saturday when he was playing in America. Give them time, they'll adapt.

I would disagree on the "courses being different" in the US vs. Europe as being a relevant excuse - the reason guys like Poulter/Garcia/McIlroy/Monty can clean up on the Euro Tour is simply because the competition isn't very good in comparison.

Seriously, Monty won EIGHT Orders of Merit on the European Tour and won exactly ZERO times in the US - that is not a result of the courses being different. Sure, he had some chances in 6 or 7 majors and a few other tournaments, but not winning a single time? If Tiger wanted to, he could go on the Euro Tour full time and probably win 12-15 times a year.
