The greatest week in history

“We’ve made this the greatest week in history”
- Europe Golf Ryder Cup captain, Ian Woosnam (here)

Possibly a slight exaggeration, me thinks, but well done to the lads!

On a less cheerful note, at the World Chess Championship, the great unification battle, Topalov lost his second in a row to Kramnik today. Even though Topa should be winning at this stage (by 1 1/2 –1/2) after some wonderful fighting chess, it's 0–2 to Krammers now.

Apparently with all of the demands of the captaincy Ian's world has become VERY small.

The Darren Clarke scene was friggin cool though... I was getting goosebumps. Good for him.
