Wilson will be the surprise of the Cup. You'll
repeatedly hear that he's the first European to
make the team despite never having won, but the fact is that he's
made for match play because he's crazy good around the greens. He's
an excellent chipper also known for making clutch putts. In his brief
stint as a pro, Wilson has been runner-up seven times.
