Like we said, despair for one camp and joy for the other. Jeev has been overlooked by Greg Norman who chose to go with Ryo Ishikawa and Adam Scott as his two picks to complete the International team lineup for the Presidents Cup.

So now, provided Jeev doesn't pick up an injury and doesn't take a liking for the Madrid Masters, he is likely to play the Indian Open. With the 45-year-old tournament bumping up the prize money by 25 per cent, there is no reason why Jeev should miss the Open.

As for Greg Norman, we can understand picking Ryo Ishikawa, but Adam Scott?



Here's Adam Scott's performance in the last 15 tournaments, from the Barclays back till the Transitions Championship-:

T58--MC--MC--T51--MC--T4--T36--MC--T64--MC--MC--MC--MC--MC--MC

It adds up to one top-ten finish and ten missed cuts in his last 15 starts. That's one helluva punt, Mr Norman!

Aussie Golfer put up ten reasons why Norman may have picked Scott. Here are our favourites from that list-:

  • He thought he could teach him about dating a tennis player and tell him what love really means to them.
  • Robert Allenby threatened to quit if he didn't
  • He thought he had to make picks for the opposition team.
  • Anna Rawson wasn't eligible.
