Script:

SOUNDBITE (English) Matt Kuchar, USA

"Losing stinks. I think that (Ian) Poulter is a guy that everybody kind of wants to draw and wants to get the best of. At the same time, the flip side of it, I hate to get beaten by Poulter but you get beaten by anybody it stings. Poulter - I don't know if it stings worse but he is the marked man that everybody wants a piece of."

SOUNDBITE (English) Matt Kuchar, USA

"They have got so many great guys - headed by Rory McIlroy. If you have a chance to try and beat Rory McIlroy that would be a huge boost to Team USA. So I don't know, there's certainly not a weak player but what Rory McIlroy has done and set himself apart. He is the number one player in the world - that's their top guy."
