Ryder Cup: 5 Most Intriguing European Pairings

Sergio Garcia and Rafa Cabrera Bello

It can be all too easy to overthink what makes a good partnership in team golf. As such there are occasions where you have to make sure not to overlook a good pairing for fear of it being just a little too obvious. Garcia and Cabrera Bello is the perfect example of this.

Cabrera Bello has played in countless big events around the world and been a remarkably consistent performer this year, but still, nerves could play a factor in his first Ryder Cup. What better way is there to combat that and maximize his contribution than to pair him with a fellow countryman and one of the most experienced Ryder Cup players ever?

Garcia and Cabrera Bello are good friends, who regularly practice together and recently represented Spain at the Ryder Cup. Plus, if the history of Spaniards at the Ryder Cup is anything to go by, pairing both men together could make for a formidable opponent for any US pair.
