Jimenez keen to book Ryder s

Miguel Angel Jimenez's joy at seeing Martin Kaymer win the USPGA title on Sunday was not only because he likes the young German.

Kaymer's play-off victory in Wisconsin also had the spin-off effect of lifting Jimenez from ninth to eighth in the Ryder Cup race - even though he had missed the cut.

Pavin impressed by Johnson

American Ryder Cup captain Corey Pavin has praised the way Dustin Johnson handled the two-shot penalty which cost him a chance of a first major title.

And Pavin believes Johnson could be all the stronger for it when it comes to his Ryder Cup debut at Celtic Manor in October.

Kaymer delight at USPGA

Europe will parade two of this season's four major winners when they try to win back the Ryder Cup at Celtic Manor in October.

Rory McIlroy is naturally disappointed that one of them is not him after what happened at The Open last month and then the USPGA Championship this weekend.

Clarke keeps the lid on his temper

Darren Clarke kept the lid on his temper remarkably well after tumbling off the US PGA leaderboard in dramatic fashion at Whistling Straits today.

Among the 78 players unable to finish last night, Clarke was forced to wait another 160 minutes after more fog swept in over the Wisconsin course where he led the field with an opening 65 six years ago.
