Should Bernhard Langer Get Picked for the Ryder Cup?

I wonder who is gonna be the Bernard Langher of the next 20 years. Sure he had a great PGA career but man this is something else on the Champions Tour...also Monty. I feel like a guy like Furyk or Zach Johnson are gonna do real well on the Champions Tour.

John Daly could, if you know..he practiced. JD's champion tour par four shot tracker: Shot 1 320 yards to green, 30 feet to hole Shot 2 27 feet to green, 3 feet to hole Shot 3 7 feet to green, 4 feet to hole Shot 4 5 feet to green, 1 ft to hole Shot 5 in the hole. It is known.

Truth

In all seriousness, I expect it to be someone who can strike the ball well and keep it in the fairway. I think Fred Funk had quite a few Champions Tour wins. Jimenez already has one and if he joins full time in the next couple years, I think he will do well.

Love the romance of it but just cant see someone who plays the champions tour getting a run over Poulter, Westy etc.. Wont happen

Someone who hasn't got media commitments, course design interests, or other commercial obligations would be my guess

In other words, I think it's too easy to make the mistake of analysing someone's golfing ability and looking for clues there. Faldo kept the ball in play, but because he has other commitments he didn't put the effort in to keep him up to speed. Someone who still wants to play and has time and dedication is a more important predictor
