Is this the one that looked like he was stepping in to break up the car park spat - ginger with a bit of a beer belly on him?

Pretty sure the same guy was chaperoning some players at Centurion earlier this year, I'm guessing they are specialists in the security of players and contract out to big events. Not a bad way to earn a crust I guess...

Please don’t ask to see my tatts 👍
Anyone seen the clip of Lowery telling the course steward to be quiet in his own style

I was a bit like that also…I’d watch a bit then go do something, then come back and watch a bit more. Then go away again. That said I managed to watch the last hour or so. I’m just hopeless when it comes to watching team sport especially when I desperately want a team to win…same as watching Scotland play football or rugby. I get incredibly tense - and tbh I just don’t need it. It’s so irritating. Put myself through agonies. Next Saturday evening I’m going to be in a total quandary…I guess I’ll start watching then hide behind the sofa…
Anyway…well done indeed Donald‘s Driven Dozen

Surely watching Scotland you expect defeat?
Managed to wake up at 10, watch the entire thing

Bob Mac eagled the 16th and we never saw it. Not even afterwards

Yeah one second the onscreen scoreboard shows he'd played through 14 tied and suddenly changes to 2up through 16
There seemed quite a few shots they couldn't/wouldn't show
That aside it was a great performance over the 3 days and if they can up the broadcast for tv fans to the same level we get at a major/big tour event it would be even better

I’m finding the whole Cantlay golf hat thing a bit of a car-crash. Three (at least) ‘reasons’ cited in media
Money protest
Hat didn’t fit
And just this morning, Patrick's getting married today and didn’t want the golfers tan line in his photos
The latter does sound the most plausible given how pronounced we’ve seen that on players but after seeing how much impact it had to the 3 days with fans, players and others, was it inevitable something/anything would be found to trigger the 'banter'/taunting/mocking and does the event need that... It really doesn’t

Is a bright red forehead much better than a tan line forehead?
Anyway, who the heck, player, books a wedding the day after a comp like that

Perhaps he is having it in Italy, and it was the easiest way to ensure all his golfing friends would be available to attend?Is a bright red forehead much better than a tan line forehead?

But day after? Win and they all have chronic hangovers. Lose and they have chronic hangovers and faces like a slapped backside. 'Smile for the photo's

One thing I found very irritating with yesterday's Sky coverage. The top left corner showed the player's name, his team, the hole no, whether he was up or down, the stroke he was about to make and his opponent's name. All very good - but - as it was matchplay, why didn't it tell us the no of strokes his opponent had played? With them skipping to a different pair whilst the opponent prepared himself, I found it quite confusing at times.
I didn't see the 4ball or 4somes so have no idea how they showed the scoring.

Only 3 or 4 of the US squad is going apparently. But they are a really tight band of brothers who would die for each other. Just not to invite to your wedding.
This is how I would do it. A new captain for each home tie, they continue into the subsequently game in the USA and the next home captain comes from the pool of previous vice captains.

I thought the coverage was poor throughout, Ewan Murray has said they lost power at the end, hence the aerial shots, but to not show either Lowry or Speith’s chips on 17, anything of Bob Mac on 16 etc. was really poor. The interviews with Donald/Fleetwood were far too long, record them and play them once the golf has finished - I think we only saw Lowry’s putt on 18?

Although it is difficult to believe much coming out of the media these days. I'm only positive there is a wedding as Cantlay said so himself
