Tiger Woods is 4-1 favourite with Ladbrokes to be the USA’s top Ryder Cup points scorer after being handed a wild-card pick by skipper Corey Pavin.
Phil Mickelson is 5-1 second favourite alongside Steve Stricker but the man I'd look at is steady as a rock Zach Johnson who has been in superb form. Johnson is 12-1.
Others Jim Furyk 7-1, Matt Kuchar, Hunter Mahan 10-1, Stewart Cink 14-1, Rickie Fowler
16-1, Jeff Overton, Bubba Watson 25-1.
Rory McIlroy is 4-1 favourite to be top European points scorer and Europe are 8-13 with Ladbrokes to win the Celtic Manor contest while the USA are 13-8 and the tie 10-1.
McDowell and Ian Poulter are 6-1 but it might be worth taking a chance on Martin Kaymer at 7s.
The German, who won the USPGA so impressively, is steely and supremely fit and likely to play a full five matches.
Italian wild-card pick Edoardo Molinari, who will play doubles with his brother, is another possibility at 12-1.
