Wild card Woods could set unwanted record

Corey Pavin today handed Tiger Woods the chance to go into the Ryder Cup record books – as the American with more defeats than any other.

United States captain Pavin has handed his wild cards to the world number one, fellow major winners Stewart Cink and Zach Johnson and to uncapped 21-year-old Rickie Fowler, who will create his own history by making the step up from the amateur Walker Cup to the Ryder Cup in just one year.
