Review: Death Match (1994)
“Go ahead, if you and your friends want to look like Swiss cheese”
Tumblr media
SOURCE
My opinion regarding kickboxer/actor/activist Ian Jacklin is a little more complicated than with most karate stars, but in a nutshell, I thought the guy was pretty cool until I realized that he spends his life promoting quackery to cancer patients. Nevertheless, I enjoy his acting career and see it as a microcosm of a successful B-movie trajectory, with Death Match being the climax. Created outside of the major video studios, it has an unambitious story but a good production with a huge amount of martial talent. It’s required watching for fans of the subgenre and easily the best of Jacklin’s film career.
The story: An ex-fighter (Jacklin) goes undercover in a deadly fighting circuit to rescue his kidnapped best friend (Nicholas Hill).
I need to emphasize the state of the production, even though it may seem odd to praise a film for looking average. Keep in mind how easy it is for indie movies to turn out like crud. By all rights, Death Match should’ve been interchangeable with a typical Cine Excel production (underpopulated vistas, dubbed dialogue, etc.) but it’s actually indistinguishable from most Pepin-Merhi or Shapiro-Glickenhaus actioneers. As a matter of fact, it would be pretty aspirant for a PM or SG production, given the impressive list of names in the cast. To be fair, we sometimes only get a little taste of them – cult stars Richard Lynch and Jorge Rivero have only one scene apiece as Mafia bosses – but the list of talent goes on. Martin Kove and Matthias Hues are good as the lead villains, with Kove supplying the drama and Hues most of the fighting. Steven Leigh, Eric Lee, and Benny Urquidez don’t have any fights but do well in their dramatic scenes. Michele Krasnoo, Butch Togisala, Randall Ideishi, Ed Neal and Peter Cunningham partake in some of the highlighted brawls, and many more show up elsewhere. If these names aren’t clicking, you haven’t been watching movies like this long enough. The sheer accumulation of performers with reputations in the genre is amazing, especially since your average PM production sometimes wouldn’t even spring for half.
Of course, presence isn’t as important as utilization. The real question is how good the 16 fight scenes are, and the answer is that they’re a mixed bag. On the bright side, there are no downright bad matches and the choreography is nicely varied – some street-fighting, some shoot boxing, and even a lone stick fight. There are some some surprisingly long shots highlighting lengthy exchanges, and a few performers have standout moments of action. (I really enjoyed the Matthias Hues-Dino Homsey bout.) However, for the most part, nobody performs the best work of their career. Michele Krasnoo is made the least of, being introduced as a fighter but then only engaging in half a match. I have the impression that the choreographers were simply stretched too thin by crafting this many fights on a limited schedule. If so, then I wish the number of brawls had been cut in half and the remaining ones given more flair.
Socially, the movie has good points and bad points. Where the latter is concerned, the fact that two women are cast in fighting roles is undermined by the female lead (Renee Allman) abandoning the sparks of characterization to play a formulaic love interest. Additionally, a sexual harasser (played by Bob Wyatt) is inexplicably made a supporting character. However, I like that the movie seems to be championing an anti-capitalist message, using organized crime and fighting as metaphors. The villains trap fighters in a system that depends on their toil while devaluing their lives, and the same villains consider theft against them to be the single greatest crime. Threatening their income by refusing to fight by their rules is likewise punishable. The protagonist sets himself apart from this system by having abandoned organized fighting and claiming to compete solely “for the competition” - not exactly a fair outlook in light of all the pro fighters in real life who earn their income via competition, but it’s nevertheless a repudiation of the metaphorical wage slavery in the feature. Death Match isn’t The Godfather when it comes to allegory, but it’s effective in delivering its message.
There’s a moment in the film when Jacklin’s character is weirded out by Martin Kove’s belief in the supernatural powers of crystals. Retrospectively, it’s funny to see Jacklin in the role of the skeptic (even though crystal power seems to be one of the few areas of nonsense that Ian hasn’t stated a belief in), but I have to admit that he does well enough as the lead. He doesn’t have quite the charisma of, say, Don Wilson, but that’s not to say he wouldn’t have made a good star in the long run. Indeed, I wish he would’ve been handed another top role before the end of the martial arts genre’s video golden age. Nevertheless, his undisputed high point here is worth hunting down if you’re a collector. Death Match encapsulates many of the essentials seen in movies like this and adds just enough of an inspired touch earn a recommendation from me. Check it out wherever you can.

Death Match (1994) Directed by Joe Coppoletta (The New Adventures of Robin Hood) Written by Curtis Gleaves (story & screenplay), Bob Wyatt, Steve Tymon (Ring of Fire II: Blood and Steel) Starring Ian Jacklin (Kickboxer 3), Martin Kove (The Karate Kid), Matthias Hues (Bounty Tracker), Renee Allman (The Stoned Age) Cool costars: Martial arts regulars Steven Vincent Leigh (Sword of Honor) and Eric Lee (Ring of Fire) appear in acting roles but don’t fight. Similarly, kickboxing hall of famer Benny Urquidez (Wheels on Meals) is limited to a training montage but offers his Jet Center studio as a filming location. Sexy pro wrestler Stevie “Puppet” Lee appears as the arena gong beater. Richard Lynch (Puppet Master III) and Jorge Rivero (Centennial) have one scene apiece as non-fighting Mafiosos. Onscreen fighters include Nicholas Hill (Bloodsport II), Michele Krasnoo (Kickboxer 4), Ed Neal (Breathing Fire), Butch Togisala (Firepower), Dino Homsey (Deadly Bet), Randall Shiro Ideishi (Black Scorpion), Debra “Madusa” Miceli (Shootfighter II), Jamie Krasnoo (Full Contact), and Nick Koga (Red Sun Rising). A performer called Hector Pena appears in a stick fight, but I’m not sure whether he’s the actual Hector “Aztec Warrior” Peña, world champion fighter. Also, kickboxing legend Peter Cunningham is inexplicably credited as “Peter ‘Sugarfoot’ London” - leading to a snafu on IMDb where the film credit goes to porn actor Peter London. Cool crew: Composer Marco Beltrani – who’d go on to earn two Oscar nominations for his work on The Hurt Locker (2008) and 3:10 to Yuma (2007) – makes his feature composition debut with this one. He is directly heard on the soundtrack playing guitar and keyboards. Content warning: Group violence, violence against women, violence against children, sexual harassment, sexual assault, ableist dialogue, graphic description of an execution Title refers to: Either the main attraction of the underground fight ring or the fights-to-the-death taking place at the end of the film. A “death match” also refers to a hardcore pro wrestling contest – a fact which may be relevant in light of stunt coordinator Brandon Pender’s history as a World Championship Wrestling producer. Cover accuracy: Different covers exist, but the most widely-distributed one is dominated by an image of Matthias Hues. Hues is one of the two lead villains, but relegating leading man Ian Jacklin to a teeny-tiny graphic is misleading. Heck, Jacklin can’t even get top billing, with Hues and Martin Kove claiming the large print. Number of full-length fight scenes: 16 Crazy credit: “No music by Giancomo Puccini was used in connection with this picture” - even though Richard Lynch’s character specifically mentions the composer’s works.

Find a #synthpop song
Ian Daniel Kehoe - Secret Republic
Dancing through his debut video in silver face paint and an assortment of wide shouldered sports jackets, Ian Daniel Kehoe appears somewhat like an apparition, an emissary from a brighter world. Secret Republic is a gorgeous pop song, a feast of analog synth surrounding a poetic evocation of a ‘spirit behind the clouds, talking backwards’. Anchored by a squelchy drum machine and sprinkled with buoyant melody, the song evokes an eternal summer.                                       Kehoe is better known to most as the serious, soft spoken sideman on the drums for The Weather Station, Julia Jacklin, and Andy Shauf. So it is all the more surprising when he reveals himself here as an eminently charming, eccentric, and confident pop music craftsman. Secret Republic was made in a home studio, where Kehoe played and recorded every note, and yet it doesn’t feel inward looking or introspective. The song is constructed as a crowd pleaser, a song to be played from bleachers or car windows, to soundtrack first dances or first kisses.                                       The accompanying video, by Colin Medley, isn’t high concept. It’s just a singer pretending to sing, and not always all that well. The special effects are low budget, the outfits colourful.  It’s best thought of as a discarded Phil Collins video from the 80’s - imperfect and awkward, but endearingly so. Something from when music videos were new and not yet buckling under the weight of expectation or perfection. This is the charm of “Secret Republic” - its innocence. Its naivety. Its humour.                                       Kehoe has always been a disciple of pop music, in the most traditional sense of the word.  A lover of Nick Lowe and Harry Nilsson, Queen and Michael Jackson, Kehoe adheres to the idea that music should be moved to, danced to, sung along to. To Kehoe, this is both the most serious thing in the world, and also not serious at all. And this is borne out on Secret Republic, a song to soundtrack a love either deep or glancing, a song for dancing or for thinking, a song that is both heavy and light as light itself. (press release)

Pro Golf Slipping into the Mud?
By ED TRAVIS
The rumors are flying fast and furious as men’s professional golf is slipping into the mud of controversy with claims and counterclaims and the situation is made even muddier since one of the claims is many top players have signed non-disclosure agreements with a proposed new tour.
Greg Norman CEO of LIV Golf Investments financed by Saudi Arabian money has announced partnering with the Asian Tour with $300 million in funding. But what really has everyone’s attention is Norman was on site for this week’s Asian Tour stop the Saudi International tournament promoting a new world professional league with players from the two long established tours, the PGA Tour and DP World Tour (formerly the European Tour).
World Golf Hall of Fame member Norman was quoted saying he and LIV Golf were “not in this a for a fight” or to compete with the two largest tours but in a comment sounding as though he may mean exactly the opposite he pointed out “nobody owns the golf space.” He complained also of being the target of unwarranted verbal attacks and that those against what LIV Golf is doing don’t know the facts. Norman has said he wants to work together with the other golf organizations.
The PGA Tour and DP World Tour have announced previously those signing with any new competitive tour would lose membership making them ineligible for the four major championships and the Ryder Cup.
One of the overriding controversies at the Saudi International and indeed the proposed LIV-backed tour is Saudi Arabia’s poor (some would say shameful) record for restricting press freedom and human rights violations.
It would be fair to point out however no details of Norman’s new tour have been disclosed nor have details of discussions with players. The Saudi International field has 21 of the top 50 world ranked players including three in the top 10, Dustin Johnson, Xander Schauffele and Bryson DeChambeau. This gives Norman lots of candidates for his pitch and to what some are speculating may be a potentially receptive group.
A few of the rumors making the circuit in addition to the supposed non-disclosure agreements include: *Norman is talking with current stars not those approaching the end of their careers. *Another Hall of Famer Phil Mickelson said “pretty much every player in the top 100 has been contacted at some point". *Englishman Ian Poulter, member of both the DP World Tour and PGA Tour, purportedly has been offered a signing bonus by Norman of $30 million. * Mickelson perhaps as justification for his talking with Norman said in a social media post, “The media rights are but a small fraction of everything else. And it is the [PGA] tour’s obnoxious greed that has really opened the door for opportunities elsewhere.” *DeChambeau has denied being offered $135 million to ink a deal. *Tony Jacklin, also a Hall of Fame member, apparently isn’t against the players taking Norman’s money and wrote in The Telegraph, “The PGA Tour and DP World Tour have a monopoly on the game right now and they obviously don’t want to let that go. So we are heading into a very complex, messy situation.”
Certainly, Jacklin is correct, and it looks as though it will get much worse before it gets better. Professional golf will never be the same. The mud will splatter everybody.
Players must decide if they want to play for history…their legacy in the game, or for the money.

The Golfers Who Must Have Been Ryder Cup Captain
Tumblr media
The Ryder Cup has grown from its humble beginnings into an international sporting event that is the center of viewers' attention. The attention of the world turns on the athletes who are selected to be captains of Europe as well as the United States, a position that has become more sophisticated in recent years. There are three fundamental gripping methods for golf The 10-finger grip (overlapping grip), and the interlocking grip. Nowadays people want to watch Ryder cup radio live online.
The role of Captain is a great honor and the responsibility is significant. It is reserved for great players and those who are competent to lead in a stressful environment. There are only so many Ryder Cups, and there is no shortage of candidates. This has resulted in numerous famous names being left out for the position.
This becomes even more difficult when several figures have been captain at various times, further making it harder for those waiting for their chance.
It is likely that captains will be selected from the likes Ian Poulter and Lee Westwood over the next ten years. What about those who didn't get the signal to act?
We've selected some notable golfers - eight Europeans, eight Americans - who never became the Ryder Cup captain.
Sandy Lyle
Lyle, twice major champion and a veteran of five Ryder Cups was widely expected follow the lead of his colleagues Big Five' comrades – Seve Ballesteros Bernhard Langer Ian Woosnam and Nick Faldo - to become captain Europe in 2010. The Shropshire Scot was eventually overlooked and Colin Montgomerie took the team to victory at Celtic Manor. This omission was sadly uncorrected.
As the pursuit for captains who remained "connected" to players increased following Faldo's tragic captaincy in 2008, there was a sense that the time of Lyle, unjustly lost to him which was a huge disappointment for a truly leader in British golf.
Neil Coles
youtube
Undoubtedly one of the most under-appreciated English golfers, Neil Coles was among the top players of the 1960s and 70s and was a winner of numerous professional events, battling for Open Championships, and was one of the eight Ryder Cups. It was all despite his fear of flying, that led him to cross the Atlantic to play in matches in the United States.
Coles was later admitted into the World Golf Hall of Fame and was the Chairman of the European Tour's Board of Directors for a long time. The Englishman could not have been the ideal candidate for the spotlight of captain's chair, but he would certainly earned the respect of his players.
Peter Alliss
Peter Alliss, before his fame as a journalist and broadcaster, was a great golfer who won eight Ryder Cups between 1953-1969. He clearly had the profile and charm to be a captain, perhaps suited to matches in America however, players like Bernard Hunt, Brian Huggett and John Jacobs held that position through the 1970s before Tony Jacklin transformed the role and closed the door to any opportunity that Alliss would have had to lead the continent.
Christy O'Connor Snr
O'Connor was one of the legends of Irish golf. He was part of an impressive 10 Ryder Cups and, like Alliss, would have been a great captain during the 1970s. His stellar playing career certainly merited that honour, but it wasn't meant to be.
Darren Clarke, the European captain at the time of O'Connor's passing in the year 2016 at the age of 91, said that "Christy Senior" was a golf legend and a remarkable person. He was an excellent player and an ambassador for the game he played for so many years. The Ryder Cup is largely what it is today thanks to his dedication to the sport.
Peter Oosterhuis
The Englishman, who had a score of 15.5 points, and had a match winning percent of 55.36 is rightfully regarded as one of the top Ryder Cup golfers of his time. It was the time that American players were suffering. Few players have a better track record than the Englishman has. He was awarded four Order of Merit titles prior to playing on the PGA Tour. His career was over in the year 1980, and he became a successful television broadcaster.
Brian Barnes
Famously beating Jack Nicklaus twice in one day during the 1975 Ryder Cup, Brian Barnes was a formidable competitor during the tournament, and formed an unbreakable team with Bernard Gallacher in a career which spanned six tournaments.
Then, after becoming two times winner of the Senior Open, Barnes, who was a representative of Scotland, was highly recognisable for his unique style and heavy drinking, something that eventually became out of control, but those enemies did not detract from his passion for golf.
There are some names who could have made a valid claim to become a Ryder Cup captain. We would like to hear your opinions regarding who should be listed and where you see the positions going.

The Golfers Just Who Should've Had Ryder Cup Chief
Tumblr media
Progressively growing from its earliest times, the Ryder Cup has developed into an extremely popular sporting event that has attracted the eyes of millions. This scrutiny puts a spotlight on the athletes selected to be captains of Europe as well as the United States, a position that has evolved into a more sophisticated position in recent decades. Golfers have 3 most common techniques for gripping the club-- the 10-finger grip, the overlapping grip, and the interlocking grip. The majority of people want to know Ryder cup radio live online.
The role of Captain is a great honor and an obligation that is significant. It is only reserved only for top players and those who are capable of leading in stressful situations. There are only a handful of Ryder Cups, and there are plenty of people who could be considered. This has resulted in many storied names being overlooked for the position.
This makes it more complicated since multiple people are captains at different times.
It is likely that captains will be chosen from players such as Ian Poulter and Lee Westwood within the next decade. What about those who didn't receive that call to action?
We've picked eight golfers of note and eight Americans and eight Europeans who haven't been Ryder Cup captains.
Sandy Lyle
Lyle, a two-time major champion, and a participant in five Ryder Cups was widely expected follow the lead of his colleagues Big Five' comrades – Seve Ballesteros Bernhard Langer Ian Woosnam and Nick Faldo - to become captain Europe in 2010. The Shropshire Scot was eventually overlooked and Colin Montgomerie took the team to victory at Celtic Manor. The omission is sadly not rectified.
Following Faldo's disastrous captaincy in 2008 The hunt for "connected" captains grew more intense. There was a sense that Lyle had lost his time and it was a huge regret for a pioneer in British golf.
Neil Coles
youtube
Neil Coles is undoubtedly one of the best golfers in England. He was a winner of a variety of tournaments, competed for Open Championships and was part eight Ryder Cups. It was all despite a pronounced anxiety about flying that saw the London-born star sail across the Atlantic for matches in the United States.
Coles was later inducted into the World Golf Hall of Fame and was the Chairman of the European Tour's Board of Directors for decades. The Englishman could not have been suited to the limelight of the captain's chair, but he would certainly earned the respect of his team.
Peter Alliss
Before his legendary broadcasting career, Peter Alliss was a great golfer who played in eight Ryder Cups between 1953 and 1969. He was clearly a player with the potential and charm to be captain, possibly suited to matches in America however, players like Bernard Hunt, Brian Huggett and John Jacobs held that position throughout the 1970s, before Tony Jacklin transformed the role, closing the window on any chance Alliss could have had to be the captain of the continent.
Christy O'Connor Snr
An icon of Irish golf, O'Connor played in a staggering 10 Ryder Cups, and like Alliss would have made a good captain in the 1970s. His distinguished career as a player was certainly worthy of this honor, but it wasn’t meant to be.
Darren Clarke, the European captain at the time of his death in 2016 at the age of 91, stated that "Christy Senior" was a golf icon and a remarkable person. He did so much for the sport he played for many years while the Ryder Cup to some extent is the way it is today due to his love for the sport."
Peter Oosterhuis
The winner scored 15.5 points and sporting a match win percentage of 55.36, the Englishman is widely regarded as one of the finest Ryder Cup golfers of his time, at a time when the odds were in favor of the non-American team. Few players have a better track record than the Englishman holds. He won four Order of Merit titles prior to competing on the PGA Tour. His career was over in the year 1980, and he was a successful television broadcaster.
Brian Barnes
Brian Barnes, who famously beat Jack Nicklaus twice in one-day at the 1975 Ryder Cup was a formidable competitor. He formed a strong relationship with Bernard Gallacher during a career which included six appearances.
Barnes was twice Senior Open winner. He was also known for his fashion sense and heavy drinking. But these weren't detriments to his love of the game.
So, there are just some names who could have staked a rightful claim to be Ryder Cup captain. We'd like to hear your thoughts regarding who should be listed and where you see the positions going.

Coles was later inducted into the World Golf Hall of Fame and was the Chairman of the European Tour's Board of Directors for many years. Although he may not have been the most ideal option for captaincy but the Englishman was respected from his team.
Peter Alliss
Peter Alliss, before his fame as a journalist and broadcaster was also a fantastic golfer who won eight Ryder Cups between 1953-1969. His charisma and profile helped him become a top captain. But, he was not suited for games in America. Instead, figures like Bernard Hunt and Brian Huggett held the position until Tony Jacklin changed it. The change ended any possibility that Alliss might have been able to lead the continent.
Christy O'Connor Snr
An iconic figure in Irish golf, O'Connor played in a astonishing ten Ryder Cups, and like Alliss could have been an ideal captain in the 1970s. His impressive playing career definitely was worthy of this honour, however it wasn't meant to be.
When O'Connor passed away aged in the year 2016, European captain Darren Clarke said: "Christy Senior was a golf icon and a wonderful person too. He was a great ambassador for the game that was his passion for many years. The Ryder Cup is largely what it is today due to his dedication to the sport.
Peter Oosterhuis
With 15.5 points and an average match-winning percentage of 55.36 In all, the Englishman is widely regarded as one of the top Ryder Cup golfers of his period, and at a time when the odds were stacked against the non-American side. Few players had a more impressive record. He also won four Order of Merit titles before competing on the PGA Tour until his career ended in the early 1980s. Later, he was becoming a popular television broadcaster.
Brian Barnes
Famously beating Jack Nicklaus twice in one day during the 1975 Ryder Cup, Brian Barnes was a formidable player during the tournament, and formed an unbreakable team with Bernard Gallacher in a career that included six appearances.
Barnes was two-time Senior Open winner. He was also famous for his fashion sense and his heavy drinking. But these weren't detriments to his love of the game.
Then, there are some names that might have made a valid claim to become a Ryder Cup captain. We want to know your thoughts on who should be listed and where you think the roles will go.

The Golf Players Which Should've Have Ryder Cup Captain
Tumblr media
The Ryder Cup has grown from its humble beginnings to an international sporting event that attracts millions of viewers' interest. The attention of the world turns on the players who have been chosen to be captains of Europe as well as the United States, a position which has evolved in recent years. Golfers have 3 most common techniques for gripping a golf club-- the 10-finger grip, the overlap grip, and the interlocking grip. People want to see Ryder cup radio live online.
The role of Captain is a great honor and the responsibility is important. It is only reserved for the best players and those competent to lead in a stressful environment. There are only a handful of Ryder Cups, and there is no shortage of candidates. This has led to numerous famous names being left out in the race for the captain's position.
This makes it more complicated since multiple people are captains at different times.
In the coming years it is anticipated that players like Lee Westwood, Ian Poulter, Graeme McDowell, Tiger Woods, Phil Mickelson and Zach Johnson will become captains But what happens to the players for whom that cherished invitation to take action was not received?
We've picked eight golfers of note and eight Americans and eight Europeans who have not been Ryder Cup captains.
Sandy Lyle
Lyle, a two-time major champion, and a participant in five Ryder Cups was widely expected to follow in the footsteps of his colleagues Big Five' comrades – Seve Ballesteros Bernhard Langer Ian Woosnam and Nick Faldo - to become captain of Europe in the year 2010. The Shropshire Scot was eventually overlooked and Colin Montgomerie took the team to victory at Celtic Manor. The omission is sadly not rectified.
As the pursuit for captains who remained "connected" to players increased following Faldo's tragic captaincy in 2008, there was a sense that the time of Lyle, unjustly lost to him which was a huge shame for a true trailblazer in British golf.
Neil Coles
youtube
Undoubtedly one of the most under-appreciated English golfers, Neil Coles was among the best players in the 60s and 70s, winning dozens of professional tournaments, contending for Open Championships, and was part of eight Ryder Cups. He did this despite his fear of flying, which saw him sail across the Atlantic to play in matches in the United States.
Coles was later inducted into the World Golf Hall of Fame and was Chairman of the European Tour's Board of Directors for decades. The Englishman could not have been well-suited to the spotlight of the captaincy, but he could surely have earned respect from his teammates.
Peter Alliss
Peter Alliss, before his fame as a journalist and broadcaster was also a fantastic golfer who won eight Ryder Cups between 1953-1969. He certainly had the stature and charisma required to become captain, possibly suitable for games in America However, figures such as Bernard Hunt, Brian Huggett and John Jacobs held that position throughout the 1970s, before Tony Jacklin transformed the role, closing the window on the chance Alliss might have had to be the captain of the continent.
Christy O'Connor Snr
O'Connor was a legend in Irish golf. He played in an impressive ten Ryder Cups and, like Alliss was an excellent captain in the 1970s. His stellar playing career certainly was worthy of this honour, however it was never meant to be.
Darren Clarke, the European captain at the time of O'Connor's passing in 2016 at the age of 91, claimed that "Christy Senior" was a legend in golf and a remarkable person. He was an excellent player and an ambassador for the game was his passion for many years. The Ryder Cup is largely what it is today thanks to his dedication to the sport.
Peter Oosterhuis
The Englishman who had a score of 15.5 points, and had a match winning percentage of 55.36 is widely regarded as one of the greatest Ryder Cup golfers of his time. This was during an era when American players were suffering. Few players have a better track record than the Englishman holds. He was awarded four Order of Merit titles prior to competing on the PGA Tour. His career ended in 1980 and he was a successful television broadcaster.
Brian Barnes
Brian Barnes, who famously defeated Jack Nicklaus twice in one-day at the 1975 Ryder Cup was a formidable opponent. He formed a strong partnership with Bernard Gallacher during a career which included six appearances.
After that, he was two times winner of the Senior Open, Barnes, who was a representative of Scotland was well-known for his distinct style and heavy drinking, something that eventually spiralled out of control However, those enemies did not detract from his enthusiasm for the sport.
There are some names who could have made a valid claim to become a Ryder Cup captain. Let us know whom you believe should be on this list and what you think the roles are going in the future!

The Ryder Cup Captains: These Are Golfers Who Should've Been
Tumblr media
Growing steadily since its early days the Ryder Cup has developed into an extremely popular sporting event, one that draws the eyes of millions. The attention of the world turns on the players selected to captain Europe as well as the United States, a position which has evolved into a more sophisticated position in recent years. There are three basic gripping strategies for golfers that include the 10-finger grip (overlapping grip), and interlocking grip. Today, people are drawn to watching Ryder cup radio live online.
Being chosen captain is a significant obligation and honor, designated for greats of the game and for players who have demonstrated an exceptional ability to meet the challenges of leading in a pressured environment. But there are only a handful of Ryder Cups and more than enough contenders and an over supply of talent has led to numerous storied names being passed by the captain's office.
This is why it's more complex since multiple people are captains on different occasions.
It is likely that captains will be selected from players such as Ian Poulter and Lee Westwood over the next ten years. What about those who didn't receive the call to action?
We've selected eight notable golfers including eight Americans and eight Europeans, who have never been Ryder Cup captains.
Sandy Lyle
Lyle, a two-time major champion, and a veteran of five Ryder Cups was widely expected to follow in the footsteps of his colleagues Big Five' comrades – Seve Ballesteros Bernhard Langer Ian Woosnam and Nick Faldo - to become captain of Europe in the year 2010. The Shropshire Scot was eventually overlooked and Colin Montgomerie took the team to victory at Celtic Manor. This omission was sadly uncorrected.
The search for captains who remained "connected" to their players intensified following Faldo's ill-fated captaincy in 2008 there was a feeling that Lyle's time, unfairly was gone and it was a massive disappointment for a truly leader in British golf.
Neil Coles

Undoubtedly one of England's most underappreciated golfers, Neil Coles was among the finest players of the 1960s and 70s, winning dozens of professional tournaments, contending for Open Championships, and was one of the eight Ryder Cups. He did this despite his fear of flying, that led him to cross the Atlantic to compete in games in the United States.
Coles was later admitted into the World Golf Hall of Fame and was the Chairman of the European Tour's Board of Directors for decades. Although he might not have been the ideal choice for the captaincy, the Englishman was respected from his teammates.
Peter Alliss
Peter Alliss, before his fame as a broadcaster and journalist was a superb golfer, winning eight Ryder Cups between 1953-1969. He was clearly a player with the potential and charisma to be captain, possibly suited to matches in America however, players like Bernard Hunt, Brian Huggett and John Jacobs held that position throughout the 1970s, before Tony Jacklin transformed the role and closed the door to the chance Alliss would have had to lead the continent.
Christy O'Connor Snr
An icon of Irish golf, O'Connor played in a astonishing ten Ryder Cups, and like Alliss would have made an ideal captain in the 1970s. His distinguished playing career unquestionably merited that honour, but it was never meant to be.
When O'Connor died aged at 91 in 2016, the European captain Darren Clarke said: "Christy Senior was a legend in golf and a remarkable person as well. He was a fantastic advocate for the sport that played for so many years. The Ryder Cup is largely what it is today because of his passion.
Peter Oosterhuis
The Englishman, who was able to score 15.5 points and had a match winning percent of 55.36 is rightly considered one the top Ryder Cup golfers of his time. This was at the time that American players were suffering. Few golfers had such an impressive record. He also won four Order of Merit titles before playing on the PGA Tour until his career ended in the early 1980s. Later, he was becoming an accomplished broadcaster on TV.
Brian Barnes
Famously beating Jack Nicklaus twice in one day at the 1975 Ryder Cup, Brian Barnes was a formidable opponent in the competition, creating an unbreakable partnership with Bernard Gallacher in a career which spanned six tournaments.
Barnes was a two-time Senior Open winner. He was also well-known for his fashion sense and his heavy drinking. But these weren't obstacles to his passion for the game.
There are some names that could be legitimately claiming to be Ryder Cup captains. Tell us whom you believe should be on this list and how you envision the positions becoming in the near future!
