The rump of America's established golf constituency can roughly be summarised thus: ardently Republican, gun-toting good ol' boys whose political inclinations make Mitt Romney look like Woody Guthrie.

So overwhelmingly right-wing is the make-up that Padraig Harrington, an Irish Democrat by nature, once told me there was nobody on Tour with whom he could sensibly debate the state of the nation.

It is the naked religiosity of many US golfers, though, that can occasionally grate.

When the Lehman-led Ryder Cup brigade descended upon the K Club in 2006, CBS commentator David Feherty suggested: "I think a lot of Europeans find that conservative Christian thing as frightening as conservative Muslims."
