I don't fancy us to nick many points in the singles either.

Poor captaincy so far from Clarke. Pieters and Sully should have been nowhere near the foursomes on day one.

Maybe we'll get some Hazeltine Heroics

Yes he would but he made himself unavailable by not playing enough events on the European tour. This is because he was overlooked as a captains pick a few Ryder Cups ago by a certain vice captain at the time. So he basically said sod you.

Who were the alternatives though? The four players sitting out this session are all rookies too.

How has Mickelson got a win when he hits his drives like that?!

I think if a team containing arguably our star player can't beat a Mickleson team, who cant hit a fairway to save his life, then we are in trouble.

Its actually shameful
4-0 down! Could Darren Clarke be the worst Ryder Cup captain since Faldo?

Oh dear - my lucky Sky banner trick was a one hit wonder! I hate being pessimistic BUT can't see us recovering from this. Overall we played poorly and looked demoralised and beaten...

No chance FD. All four remaining rookies have to play this afternoon but just cannot see them doing anything that will stem the tide. And the crowd are up now and are only going to get louder and more abrasive/abusive in the fourballs. Can see another whitewash in the fourballs. Hope I'm very wrong, but I'm afraid I won't be.

Not really, it is a bit of a myth that the captain make and breaks it, they do not hit one single shot. We have won a few times in the last couple of decades with very poor captains and the USA team have lost with very good ones.

Oh dear 4-0 and we are going to have to change something. Throw the rookies in. we need to win this afternoon 3-1 or we are seriously up against it. Once momentum builds its hard to stop.
