Ten years after Thomas Levet, only French winner of this match USA-Europe, Victor Dubuisson will debut in the Ryder Cup Friday at Gleneagles. Without openly in the footsteps of his elder.
We all remember this picture, which will remain as the most sold in England during the 2004 edition Drenched in champagne, eyes rolled back, Thomas Levet communion with European fans. “Something sick” , he repeats at every. Demonic joy. Happiness shared her talkative, athletic inexhaustible storyteller. Ten years later, the winner of the Open de France 2011 will follow some of his former teammates (Garcia, Poulter, Westwood and Captain McGinley) for the post of consultant for Canal +. With the same passion. And special attention to Victor Dubuisson, the Frenchy band.
Talking heir would be inappropriate even if Dubuisson will be only the third French to participate in the Ryder Cup (Jean Van de Velde was the first in 1999). For Levet, the Ryder Cup 2004 was “the culmination of the work of an entire career,” so long 16 years. Dubuisson is it a “kid” of 24, entered the light thanks to his win last year in Turkey, nose and beard of Tiger Woods and Henrik Stenson. The tricolor veteran (46 years) has always marched to adrenaline; the opposite of French golf prodigy (23rd in the world), a cold-blooded snake. Levet has never been hit hard, Dubuisson length hitters and hands Severiano Ballesteros. The consultant television is above all a man of words, the life and soul being both catalyst and cloakroom. Protected Benedict Ducoulombier is a lone wolf.
The “new Greta Garbo” qualifies as the British press as disconcerted as charmed by the French. Enigmatic, mysterious and temperamental one side, terribly charismatic another, those that attract the cameras through their eyes or their smile. “Victor is definitely a bit different. It is what it is” , says captain Paul McGinley, who tried for nearly a year to break through the shell of Cannes. “Does anyone know of only Victor?” , smiled Thomas Bjorn, one of its chaperones in the European team.
I want to see his eyes, his voice, his facial expressions
Gregory Havret
Between a France that is looking for a standard bearer four years the first edition on the French soil, and an Anglo-Saxon (British and Americans alike) who are bewildered by the character, Dubuisson will be one of the main attractions of the Scottish edition of the golf Gleneagles. The question is how the younger of the European team will react. “Friday, I louperai his tee shot at 1 for anything! I want to see his eyes, his voice, his facial expressions” , already impatient Gregory Havret, who has no doubt the ability of his compatriot to take responsibility. “He brings a freshness and a considerable level for Europe, especially on the big game. He has such a will as an ability to transcend when he decides he is the perfect partner. It can play with anyone, he has no qualms, he has a very, very high level that will be able to knock some players as the finish is beautiful and pure. There will be no hard to get into this competition, “, he prophesies.
McGinley, who dropped the bridle, do not say anything else. ” Seeing withdraw more weeks of the circuit problem for me, since it has proven that it did not affect his performance. He’s ready, I know it is fixed this week “, provides the team captain European. Thomas Levet even imagine a revelation. “If Bernhard Langer came out of his calm, Victor is also out , is he wins, interviewed by The Independent. Likes agitation. More competition is important, the better he plays. could even see up fist and clap (teammates) . he will love. You’ll see. “ If this is the case, it will not be especially miss the shot.
