	GCM - December 2004 - OUT of the rough
		England’s Tony Jacklin is so revered as the fellow who in 1983 invented the modern version of the Ryder Cup that it’s become routine to forget his brilliance as a player.
		When Jacklin agreed to first captain the European side in 1983, he made changes that made his team feel psychologically equal to the American squad rather than the 2-down feeling on the first tee they previously had.
		When the great Bernhard Langer asked Jacklin for a Saturday afternoon off in one of the four matches he captained in the ’80s, Jacklin told him that a tired Langer was superior to the alternative — and Langer visibly grew in stature, played and won the afternoon match.
