Ha! Commentary curse gives Moore two birdies. I'd best shut up.

 

[Kellfire]

Superb.

 

[Papas1982]

Superb response.

Fitz and Wood in for Willet and Kaymer and go again.

 

[palindromicbob]

nicely set up for the weekend now.

Brilliant Rory!!

Got to love the Eagle finish well done Rory, come on Europe.

Does anyone think Willett's brother was wrong ?

Great response this afternoon. From 4 points down to 2 points down means the job is only half done. Let's finish the comeback tomorrow morning boys!

Same picks tomorrow but id put in Fitz and Wood in place of Kaymer and Willet. I would then have Westwood and Willet to play the afternoon in place of anyone flagging. Kaymer shouldnt play again until the singles imo.

Great four balls, but I'm struggling to see the hole when they go low with the coverage of a putt. Had no idea whether or not Rory's winning putt was going anywhere near until it dropped - I'd rather see a high angle. No matter - it dropped.

Rose getting stick on here yet -6 through 14 holes! Didn't hole a putt this morning but his ball striking is right up there.

Westwood and Kaymer were the right picks for me, but now I'd definitely be leaving them out tomorrow. Westwood really let Pieters down this morning and Kaymer didn't come in on a single hole until the 9th!

I would give Pieters the morning off, he will be exhausted and let him go attack the fourballs. Bring Sully back, then pair Wood and Fitz and go out again.

I've obviously got no idea what I'm talking about when it comes to golf predictions!! What a great fightback from the European team. Rory at the end showing what a class act he is. Hopefully the foursomes will be better!!

I'd like to see Willett and Sullivan paired tomorrow.

 

[ExRabbit]

When are the morning pairings announced?

Bad timing more than anything, DC shouldn't of been put in the position of answering questions about it and mostly unfair on Danny Willett, he didn't need the pressure and limelight before the event, especially this being his first Ryder Cup.

Great afternoon fightback, USA 5-3 up and looking deflated, get it level in the morning and pull away in the afternoon hopefully. Come on Europe.

Wrong in what he wrote or wrong in hanging his brother out to dry?

He was 100% wrong in doing what he did. Thinks he is some kind of star after the Masters comments but failed terribly by going OTT before the Ryder Cup - definitely messed up the debut for his brother.

He must not have had an OK from his brother before posting it, so he is obviously a bit of of a prick at the very least.

Probably thinks he is a future Jeremy Clarkson type journalist of the golf world.

 

[ExRabbit]

The other best pairings I thought of has been played out - splitting Henson and Rose to play with the rookies. Brave choice!

 

[ExRabbit]

Looking at the pairings I am hopeful that we will be at least level by the afternoon.

Clarke has dropped Westwood and Kaymer for Sat foursomes which is good captaincy, neither have any form and were bad wildcard picks (should go on form not experience) that has backfired on him, also Willett dropped - another with little form since April and distracted by his numpty brother. Keep them dropped especially if Fitzpatrick's and Wood's foursomes go well.
