Thursday’s naming of Tom Watson as captain of the 2014 U.S. Ryder Cup team sparked a swell of reactions from golfers and analysts alike. The cheekiest, however, came from Rory McIlroy, who accepted Keegan Bradley’s enthusiastic acclamation of Watson’s captaincy as a chance to get in a dig -- two years ahead of the next contest.
You wanna get beaten again already!? "@keegan_bradley: All this Ryder Cup talk is getting me excited.Can we play now??!!!! #2moreyears"

This year’s PGA winner, of course, almost missed his tee time for Sunday’s singles finale and then went on to beat the 2011 PGA champ, 2 and 1, in September’s contest at Medinah. The two are likely to meet again at Gleneagles in Scotland but it would seem the world No. 1 was already 1-up on Bradley after that tweet.
