Hansen: I'll take them on, on my own

Soren Hansen offered a unique solution to captain Nick Faldo’s Ryder Cup selection headache after an exhilarating round in the defence of his Mercedes-Benz Championship.

“The way I played today I could play with anybody, or play on my own,” joked Hansen after a second-round 67 which contained 10 birdies, including six in his first seven holes.
