Tiger Woods raised a lot of eyebrows by insisting he prefers the Presidents Cup - the United States versus the rest of the world minus Europe - to the Ryder Cup.
He said he had more fun and you see more concessions and more sportsmanship.
“That's the way it's supposed to be played and how the Ryder Cup used to be played. Now it's starting to get back to that,” the world number one said at the HSBC Champions tournament in Shanghai, where he finished second.
“The Presidents Cup is a lot more enjoyable because of how the sportsmanship is conducted. That's the nature of why both tournaments were started and unfortunately the Ryder Cup got a little sidetracked.”
Woods was further questioned on whether he had himself witnessed bad sportsmanship since he made his Ryder Cup debut at Valderrama in 1997.
“Let's not say sportsmanship. How about gamesmanship?” he replied.
