Jimenez seeking to secure Ryder Cup place
Miguel Angel Jimenez’s joy at seeing Martin Kaymer win the United States PGA 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.
Kaymer is now going to be one of the four qualifiers for Colin Montgomerie’s team off a world points list and his name is therefore removed from the list of those seeking one of the other five automatic spots based on their European Tour earnings.
