Ryder Cup 2016 - Official Thread

[Hosel Fade]

Walker/Johnson & Mickelson/Fowler did not play well enough to get anything against decent opposition. Just not good enough on our end

 

[paddyc]

Probably just worried about how they'd cope with the pressure which is ramped up the further behind we get today.

No option but to sit Westwood this afternoon and I'm a bit surprised kaymer is out again.

Should have given Kaymer and Garcia a rest and let Fitz and Wood loose. Get them on the fourballs if they do well great get them back in tomorrow. If they don't leave them out .Can t expect them to perform on Sunday not having played and we're 10-6 OR WORSE down

Early days but still slightly devastated with morning results,
Huge afternoon coming up and would like at least 3 points. Come on Europe

Hmmm, bit of a son in law that.
Plenty of time left, things can only get better ? oo:

 

[williamalex1]

Very disappointing , the Yanks putted us off the course.

 

[pokerjoke]

I'm going 3_1 Europe just think Johnson and Kucha will be too strong.

 

[User62651]

Quite happy to see the Yanks winning, they've lost so many times it's good for the RC and will make a better match next time. They are overdue since the Medinah collapse 4 years ago.
Early days but this time European Team doesn't have strength in depth, already been shown Clarke's buddy Westwood should have been left at home for Knox.

No coming back from this.....surely?

 

[ColchesterFC]

Need a big result in the four balls, 3-1 to peg them back

Agree with this. Anything less than that and I fear it will game over by close of play tomorrow.

 

[PJ87]

feel a bit heartless saying this but when Arnold Palmer past my first thought was of sadness but my second thought was AHHH the yanks will be well up for the ryder cup now

Yes there is. And don't call me Shirley.

Is it too late to draft in the ONLY captain who could save us?


Arsene Wenger!

It makes a nice narrative that the yanks will do it for Arnie and the Europeans did it for Seve in the last one. But I think in reality they do it for their own pride. With regards to the yanks, the fact they have been spanked lots of times in the last couple of decades will be much more of a factor than the fact that Arnie died. I'm sure if he hadn't of died they would have been just as much 'up for it'.

To paraphrase someone else.

"Trust me, I have a real bad feeing about this." 😕

Really hope our lads can win tonight's session.

 

[HawkeyeMS]

He hasn't even completed his first round yet the knives are out already

So what has he done to deserve to be in it? It's not even like you'd back him to make a putt under pressure.

Disappointing for Wood & Fitzpatrick. Hard to feel part of a team when you don't play.

Yanks are looking ominous. Pin-Seeker, maybe the Europeans have also been spending too much time watching DJ's missus. Very off putting.

Westwood proved the point that picking someone for their experience is a total nonsense if they are not playing well. Pick form players, not experienced out of form players. England football teams of the 70's, 80's, 90's etc proved this time and time again. Will we never learn?

I'm watching the footie at 8, this is too stressful.

Surprised DJ can concentrate whilst Tiger is on the prowl.

PLAYER!!
