Fitzpatrick 16 in the world now and Westwood 36, if Westwood could make the RC team would be an incredible effort

It will be interesting to see how young Alex fares when he turns pro.
He didn't seem overly desperate to make the team from the bit of interview I read. Content with what he has already done, looking at the next stage of his Ryder Cup career. The next tournament is at a bomber's course. That might not suit him now. Does he want to be the player that goes one time too many?
Phenomenal effort incidentally and I'm not questioning his place. I'm just going off his response.
Great to see a player win this who hasn't just parachuted in for this tournament. Westwood has played a number of ET tournaments this year.

Brilliant from Fitzpatrick - still think he is very much underrated as a player .
But even better to see Westwood win the R2D - been a favourite player and good to see him can still compete at the highest level . Also shows that a player can compete without a caddy

In 2 1/2 years time I suspect he could start cleaning up on the Seniors Tour...

The interview I saw on Sky, when asked about playing in the next Ryder Cup it looked like he just wanted to say no.
The story of his career, to be fair. The year Mickelson pipped him for The Masters by a couple of shots, Westwood had something like twenty more putts over the course of four rounds.
I’m absolutely delighted for him. Been a top pro for so long, and a genuinely nice fella. Phenomenal effort for a player of his age.

I agree that it seems he does not want to play in the team, but I think he would like to be assisting in the background.
Question of pressure, I think.
There is a big difference in playing for yourself from playing for a team.
Big pressure on the latter.
My congratulations to him on this latest achievement. Would be wonderful if he could manage a Major.

Pleased for Westwood who continues to support the ET and is still so consistent. Not sure he has another playing RC in him and definitely think the major train has left the station
He wasn't gushing was he, keeps saying how much he enjoyed being on the sidelines in France. Think it would be great to use him like we did wit Stenson and just roll him out once a day before the singles.

Scores going backwards in Women's US open today. Clearly freezing cold conditions and playing very long but the pin placements don't look too bad so I'm surprised drop shots are quite so common. Nerves or am i miss judging the difficulty of the course?

They're all dropping shots bar a the odd one, there must be good reason. Hoping Hinako chan can hang on for the win.

Definitely, appears to be much more undulation in the greens than I'm picking up watching on ipad with some of the breaks too. -2 perhaps winning?

There are certainly some whacky outfits on show. Golf wise, it's a bit meh, but I guess Monday finishes are never great, esp in the cold.

birdie birdie birdie finish looks like it may well be enough for the win for A Lim Kim
guess we all shouldve known the girl wearing the mask would win the way 2020 has been

They look like they almost have as many layers as we need for an 8.00am tee time in 2 degrees and a wind chill
Tough scoring on the closing holes but bubbling up. Think AL Kim has done enough. Can't see the others making two birdies

Every sport atm is low key and lacking excitement.
Apparently the world championship darts has now been effected,now that will be crap without fans.
Football is just pants without an atmosphere.

Congrats to A Lim Kim - she certainly went out and won it on a tough day with most players struggling.
Anthony Kim translating for her at the prizegiving!
I don't think that was the real Anthony Kim! He has disappeared completely. The NLU boys are desperate to get him on.
