Faldo FTW

I just wanted to give quick props to Nick Faldo for his handling of the European Ryder Cup loss last weekend. He was very gracious after the loss, even though you could see it was killing him behind those cool Adidas shades he was wearing. Top that with all the criticism he has been receiving across the pond, yet he still shows up and does his job graciously and professionally on the five hour block of Golf Channel coverage of the Tour Championship yesterday. It had to be eating him alive to have to hear the constant comments and questions from his partner Kelly Tilghman, as she constantly referred back to last week's events. That's no knock on Kelly. It's her job, and she would have done the same in any other week.

I always thought Faldo was a class act, and this week has only solidified my opinion.
