Ryder Cup 2016 - Official Thread

Curious as to whose authority and on what basis this the "Official Thread" ?

I'm curious why it really matters in the grand scheme of things and why someone would be that worried about it to post about it

I agree with Bob, it's only Monday....

Do we need to stick to this thread as it's the official one or is it okay if there is a new one started nearer the time
 
No idea who'll go with who and frankly don't care as long as the captain thinks he's the right pairings. I still can't see us winning though I'm afraid

Well that's a clear win for us then, the Homer kiss of death strikes again 😜

So do you have anything to add about the Ryder Cup - maybe your thoughts on pairings ?

You seemed to have a lot to say when Westwood got a wild card pick posting from what appeared to be a position of knowledge so maybe you can offer some invaluable insight ?
 
Read a few articles over the weekend and they seemed to lean towards Rose and Stenson, after their success at Gleneagles, whilst one newspaper thought McIlroy might partner Sullivan as Rory apparently rates Sully. Westwood-Matt Fitz seemed a popular choice as well.

Rose and Stenson first up would be a great pair: Olympic champ and Open champ.

For "Official" read "Main"thread, like the footy its easier if most posts remain on the one thread, feel free to start a new one for a specific Ryder Cup question or query. but what tends to happen is you get the same stuff being said across 2 or 3 different threads, which isnt good.

This is the "official " line :thup:

Love
Your Mod Team x
 
The European team really don't fill me with much confidence.
Westwood,Willet,Sullivan,Wood.
Hopefully team spirit can get us through.

Rory's victory and DJ going backward yesterday have just shifted momentum toward the Europeans for me. Pretty much all of the big American names finished well down the leaderboard. Ryan Moore doesnt exactly strike fear.

It'll be a tough one for Europe but seeing their number one player triumph in the week before the RC is a major boon.

Rory was awesome yesterday.
Hope you're right.
 
Don't know if the pairings matter that much to us Europeans - we don't have half a team that hates the other half. :whoo:
