Solheim Cup

Well said Karen. One of the reasons I love the Ryder Cup coverage is that it's so complete and shows the bad shots as well as the good. Understandably, under the pressure and nerves, there are plenty of the bad ones...

In the end though we're swimming uphill here and nothing is ever going to change that :(
 
I watched most of it last night and really enjoyed it, some real good golf played by the majority but also a few stinkers.

I didn't expect it to compare with the mens game but it was closer than I was expecting.
 
Well, I have to say I am really enjoying it. I always do. I don't know why people would just want to discuss the quality of the golf. I bet they don't do that when watching the Euro Pro tour or the Trilby tour or the countless proam's sky fill their coverage with.
The fact is that the standard of golf is pretty damned good and I for one would love to play like that.
i have to say the 30 min delay while they sorted out the dropping point was ridiculous. I think that was more down to the course than the officials. A drop zone for a hazard of that nature is surely in order? I bet the members don't mess around like that. Still I laughed at loud when she sank the putt to half the hole! Brilliant.

What a fiasco that was and, apparently, the official eventually got it wrong. Also.... Why not just let the groups behind play through, does that just not happen in the pro game? Brilliant shot and putt though, turned that match.
 
FD.... Don't rise to the bait.

I don't think there is many Guys on here who could compete with any of the women from either side and judging by your handicap I think you could give all the lads on here a run for their money.
Whilst I agree with you and FD on this thread, fortunately being a better golfer than someone you are in disagreement with, does not mean you are right. Even when discussing golf.
 
Really exciting in the foursomes today - matches swinging one way and then the other.

Tell you what I've not seen in the Solheim Cup? Long putters! Is it only men that can't putt? ;)
 
It has been a tough game out there today for the European team but credit where it due they have battled on and still have a chance to turn this around.

Come on Europe.
 
terrible last hole course management there by Europeans........thats golf though.

Some sparkling golf though today:thup:
