Only days ago Captain Thomas Bjørn announced his wild card picks for the 42nd Ryder Cup in less than four weeks time. Here is how the world of Twitter reacted to the news...
. @thomasbjorngolf You sure you’ve got my number right? Two and half hours for the announcement and I still haven’t received your phone call. Please don’t make the same mistake as the previous 7 captains.
