Solheim Cup

Last match was simply amazing to win it with that putt from off the green.....I've got a 7:30 qualifier in a few hours but that was worth staying up for!!!
A clean sweep...just incredible. :whoo:
 
Yes mate... what a putt from Icher for a whitewash 4-0 session to Europe.... great TV.

Incredible......just loving the looks on the American faces in the crowd when that putt went in.......luck at these two here on either side of the woman in the white hat...........priceless!!!!!!

LOL :D ...I noticed both of them in the coverage too, especially the one catching flies on the right :D

Only 3½ points for Europe to retain the trophy (4 to win outright) from 12 matches... and get something from US soil for the first ever time!

Thrilling golf today.
 
And who said women's golf was dull, what a great display from Europe and showcase for women's golf.

I for one will be glued tongue TV tonight.

Had to drag myself off to bed for my early start today. You're hardcore rick! :)

Been some excellent golf played. I really hope they do it early though, got a 05:15 start tomorrow, not for not wanting to but won't be staying up till the end......
 
Stayed up till 3am, will stay up again tonight as its good to watch.

Never saw the caddie conceding a putt- weird, what was he thinking and what happened?

Disappointed in Wie and her partner marching off to the 17th tee before the Europeans had putted to get the half! :angry:
I remember Jack saying he never left a green until all competitors had finished as respect for his playing partners, a rule I follow myself
 
Just been watching the highlights. Great stuff. Course looks difficult. Quality of the golf is great.

With a Ryder Cup/Solheim Cup double on American soil on the cards perhaps the European Tours should take over the US ones! ;)

I noticed that, poor show.

I stayed up to the end without realising how late it was. First match had 13 birdies in the 18 holes.

The rules officials need a kick up the backside. How can it take 30 minutes to give a drop ruling ? Apart from that a great nights viewing.:thup:
 
The 3am finish was hard work but the golf was so good I couldn't go to bed. The girls are just playing fantastic shots and its truly addictive viewing, my only criticism is why is 90% of the crowd female? Surely the American males must want to watch this standard of golf as well as the ladies? Very strange. Come on Europe
 
See when these wuman get their caddies to stand behind them to line them up has anyone ever heard them say 'na your no pointing in the right direction'??

No,it is a total waste of time and should be banned.

One of them backed off the other night and went though her routine again without her caddie lining her up......funny that,she actually doesn't need him eh?

Bloody hell - is that still going on? The caddie might as well take the shot!!

It's all about giving the player confidence. I agree it's not necessary, but there is little, if any time wasted - the times I've seen it, it's all part of the set-up routine,, and there's certainly some of the routine performed after the caddie moves away.

If a 1 second 'that's fine' gives the player the confidence to swing they way they actually want to, then it's worthwhile. Just 1 trip to the deep rough would gobble up any supposed time saving if the swing is held back from a lack of confidence.

It seems, to me, to have reduced from a year or so ago, though it was the putting set-up where it as most prevalent then.

Biggest 'waste of time' imo is what has happened with some of the trips to water!
