The International team is loaded and it seems as though the should be the obvious pick pick. But they seem to struggle in the team setting, lacking the chemistry that the Europeans bring to the Ryder Cup. That being said, the Americans haven't shown much either recently. I feel as though the Americans have something to prove because of the poor performances at the Ryder Cup recently. I do like their roster for this event as opposed to the Ryder Cup last year. Mahan, Austin and Stricker are all playing great golf right now as opposed to Vaughn Taylor and Brett Wetterich who stuggled at the K Club. Zach Johnson has a Ryder Cup under his belt and a win at Augusta. Woods and Mickelson are both playing incredible and Furyk is coming back from his injury. The International team is as deep as ever but the chemisty factor is what keeps me skeptical. I do agree that the odds are a little off here, I see it as a pickem.
