Never know whats gona happen. But the only reason I would think Norman picked Scott was because he is an Aussie?. That's just my opinion.
Worst pick ever, makes Norman look like a poor and selfish captin IMO.
HG,
Let me start by saying that I'm not about to defend Scott's form slump. There might have been an emotional element in Norman picking Scott. Scott was a Norman protege whom he groomed from his late teens. There is a strong bond there. That does not mean, however, that I'm advocating that Scott should have been picked based on that.
On the other hand, the Presidents Cup is match play. Not only is it man vs man, it is a series of single rounds, not four rounds of stroke play. Norman would have taken the unique features of match-play into account (IMO) when deciding whether to pick Scott.
Whether it will be the right choice; time will tell.
