Captain believes Colsaerts can do the business

Jose Maria Olazabal does not believe he has gambled by picking uncapped Belgian Nicolas Colsaerts rather than three-time major winner Padraig Harrington for next month’s Ryder Cup.

As widely predicted, Olazabal today handed wild cards to Colsaerts and Ian Poulter – a star of the last two matches – for the defence of the trophy in Chicago on September 28-30.
