SPORTS JOURNALISTS GET IT RIGHT:
IAN WOOSNAM'S MEN TEAM OF YEAR

By COLIN FARQUHARSON

Well, unlike the BBC TV Sports Personalities of the Year programme, the Sports Journalists Association of Great Britain have got it right by naming Europe's victorious Ryder Cup team as the "Team of the Year."
Some obscure Rugby League team got the honour in the BBC TV show!
Ryder Cup director Richard Hills collected the award on behalf of skipper Ian Woosname's team at a lunch in London.
World super middleweight boxing champion Joe Calzaghe and Zara Phillips, the 2006 World and European equestrian champion, were named Sportsman and Sportswoman of the Year.
Cynical Scot that I am, I suppose Richie Ramsay's capture of the United States amateur golf championship did not rate too highly with English sportswriters.
