The evolution of Tiger Woods as a Ryder Cup teammate
PARIS -- For all of his greatness over the years, through all of the multiple-victory seasons and major championships and No. 1 rankings and myriad accolades, Tiger Woods never saw that level of success translate to the Ryder Cup.
Expected, perhaps unfairly, to carry the United States teams throughout a run of Ryder Cup competitions against Europe that dates to 1997 for him, Woods has been more failure than force, playing on only one winning team and posting an overall losing record.
And to punctuate just how frustrating the process has been over the years, Woods has played with 12 different partners in 26 team matches -- never winning more than two matches with any single partner.
