Orlando (July 4): Ryo Ishikawa is more than just a blip on Greg Norman’s radar screen. “He’s definitely got my attention,” the Presidents Cup International team captain told Asian Golf Monthly. “I will be keeping an eye on him – and many other players – over the summer.”

“His win last week moved him to 25th in the International Team standings,” Norman said. “That’s already quite an accomplishment for someone so young.”
