Second time could be another charm

Bernard Gallacher, Europe's captain when Tom Watson led the United States to victory at The Belfry in 1993, described the 63-year-old's recall for 2014 at Gleneagles on Wednesday as "good for the Ryder Cup".

"It is a surprise," Gallacher said. "The USPGA obviously decided they needed a bit of experience over in Scotland and Tom is probably the most respected figure in the game today.

"He's done the job before, he's been there as a player, he knows how to win in Europe and in Scotland as well.
