Americans vs The World

Just a thought I would like to throw out this forum's memebers, since many countries are represented on here. As a separate group among the world's pro golfers, and I 'm speaking of Americans, Europeans, Austrailians, South Africans, Orientals, and any other countries I failed to mention. Which group has the more consistant swing, which would make that group of players more consistant, and better players as group than their counterparts from other countries? The second question would be that in your opinion why does that country have the more consistant better scoring players?

Being an American, and knowing the world golf rankings top two golfers are American, as a group I would have to say the Europeans have the better golfers in the world. I use the past Ryder Cup competitions, as one argument. Also, I think the European pro golfers still looks at older instruction more so than what some might consider the "new" modern swing instruction. I also think the European pro golfer looks at the game of golf from a more historical perspective than the rest of the world. Kind of "for the love of the game" type scenario

Don't get me wrong here. As an American I am very proud of Woods, Furyk, and #4 Mickleson. However, I also don't believe there is a right, or wrong opinion with this question. Just have some fun with it. GJS
