Well South Africa can never resist a good choke. Best not to dwell on it. But that’s what it was. Against an ordinary attack, for Kallis, de Villiers and Duminy to throw away their wickets as they did was nothing less than a choke. AB de Villiers getting run out with the asking rate at 4.5?

New Yorker Cricket: June 2010

A typical English reaction to an untypical English victory. Andy Flower and Andrew Strauss have changed the way English cricket is played. They worked hard on getting the squad fit and enthusiastic, and they have succeeded. The quality of fielding always gives us a sneak peek into the mindset of a tea...Maybe...

New Yorker Cricket: January 2010

Keep up with the latest cricket news, read the latest cricket opinion, and vent your own feelings with Hugh O'Connor at the New Yorker Cricket Blog. Sunday, January 17, 2010. It's no use playing the more stylish cricket, making the tons, and topping the stats lists if you can't do the basics. Australia discovered this to their detriment in the Ashes, and until the Johannesburg test it looked like South Africa might go the same way. South Africa head to India for a series that has all cricket fans licking...

European Tour Golf: A Mountain to Climb
http://europeangolf.blogspot.com/2012/09/a-mountain-to-climb.html
Saturday, September 29, 2012. A Mountain to Climb. So, the 39th Ryder Cup is one day old and, so far, it has not disappointed. Tiger Woods and Steve Stricker finished the first day pointless and, although Tiger bounced back from a woeful foursomes display to play some decent golf in the fourballs, Davis Love III has decided to leave him and his partner on the bench for Saturday morning's foursomes; the first time Tiger has been rested at a Ryder Cup. So, how do they match up on Saturday morning? We got p...

European Tour Golf: To Pick Or Not To Pick?
http://europeangolf.blogspot.com/2011/09/to-pick-or-not-to-pick.html
Friday, September 30, 2011. To Pick Or Not To Pick? Bill Haas took Couples' second pick, and after a playoff FedEx win which involved two incredible par saves before taking it at the 3rd hole, it's tough to say he doesn't deserve it. Can Couples justify picking a man in such poor form, who hasn't been playing much golf? So why do Fred Couples and I think he should be on the team? One more reason to pick him? Who can wait now for the President's Cup? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

European Tour Golf: Ready, Steady, Go!
http://europeangolf.blogspot.com/2012/09/ready-steady-go.html
Thursday, September 27, 2012. Ready, Steady, Go! The 2-year wait is over. The slightly odd procession of wives is behind us. We have one more sleep before the 39th Ryder Cup kicks off in Medinah, and with the foursome pairings at our fingertips, we can begin to imagine what will happen. Match 1: Jim Furyk and Brandt Snedeker v. Rory McIlroy and Graeme McDowell. Match 2: Keegan Bradley and Phil Mickelson v. Luke Donald and Sergio Garcia. Europe to win 4&3. USA to win 3&2. This is a toughie. If Poulter...

European Tour Golf: June 2010
http://europeangolf.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
Wednesday, June 16, 2010. It's U.S. Open week - the one week where the USGA get their hands on the world's greatest players and give their sadism a good airing. This year the tournament returns to Pebble Beach, where, in 2000, Tiger Woods never gave the field a look-in, winning by a whopping 15 shots. The USGA have set it up as a U.S. Open should be, so par's a good score. The greens will run at 12 on the stimpmeter all week, and the rough is long. On the flip side, he's the greatest player in the histor...

European Tour Golf: April 2010
http://europeangolf.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Sunday, April 11, 2010. What did I say yesterday? That Mickelson and Westwood didn't have it in them this week because of their short putting? Maybe it's time for a rethink. It was a disappointing day for Ian Poulter, who never really got it going, and slipped back to -6. He won't be shrugging on the green jacket this year, but it's still been an important week for him in the major learning curve. Links to this post. Saturday, April 10, 2010. I wish I thought differently, but I don't think Lee Westwood i...

European Tour Golf: Home Comforts
http://europeangolf.blogspot.com/2012/06/home-comforts.html
Wednesday, June 27, 2012. For the first time in nearly 60 years, Royal Portrush is playing host to the Irish Open. Given the success of Northern Irish golfers in the last few years, expectations have never been higher for local heroes to succeed, and with over 100,000 fans expect to turn out, the 2012 Irish Open will be one to remember. The question is, can one of the local boys do the business? I get the feeling that Graeme McDowell. 8221; The fact is that that’s just the kind of player he is....I don&#...
