that's a gimme, poor form from the Europeans imho.
that sort of thing could galvanise the Americans for the singles this afternoon

Poor why? They hadn't decided not to concede it yet I don't think but why should any putt be assumed as conceded?

Sounds like it could have been handled better but the US girl picked up before the putt was conceded so the ref seems to have made the right call.
Harsh but thems the rules....

I get your point, according to the rules.
however imo it goes against the spirit of the game, it was 18 inches away, maximum

People can and have missed shorter putts under less pressure.

Cheap there by the USA.
"Class style USA"?
No your issue is with the ref, not Europe.

Disgraceful behaviour from the European team.I'd like to think a British captain would do the honourable thing. It will definitely fire up the Americans for the singles.

I don't care what anyone says that's was awful from the Europeans. Terrible taste.
They walked off the green like they had conceded. If your not gonna concede don't leave the green.
Poor form
Charlie Hull is crying now, and that's because they know they were in the wrong

Europe did NOTHING wrong. Only one person did - Lee.

Your brain dead. Golf is about good sportsmanship. Walking off the green when your opponent is still putting is also bad taste.
I fee sorry for any of your opponents you may play in golf

If they find a way to award USA a half for that last match Pettersen will be rightly livid.
Ignore the spirit of the game nonsense, only one person broke that by assuming a putt.
Pathetic from people not under that pressure to say Pettersen did anything wrong.

OK, then, another pathetic response then. Peterson was right but she was wrong. Hull had effectively conceded it, and Pettersen should have accepted it as a honest mistake, or now they should find a way to make it right. The US will be fired up now, and if they make a major charge this afternoon, it was Pettersen wot did it.

As they are saying it looks as though Charley Hull had conceded it by her actions. Lee's mistake though by not waiting for the call but maybe she had seen Charley walking away and assumed it was given.

Yea, you must ignore it at times like this when something clearly defined in the rules has occurred.
And it was Hull who walked without conceding, so why is Pettersen getting pelters?
Did Hull mean it as a concession? Maybe but it was never technically conceded. Hull and Lee will both learn from this. Meanwhile Pettersen shows that she knows the rules better than two less experienced players.

"Europeans suck" eh?
The chant they did decide on?
Either of them in the spirit of the game?
At worst Pettersen lacked class. At best that entire American huddle did.

For me, the match should be declared a half, simples.

There's no debate she made a mistake picking it up, but where is the class.
Maybe if Peterson wasn't 30yds from the hole whilst there opponents were putting it wouldn't have happened.
Bottom line is, if someone did that to me in a match play. I'd probably walk off, and say 'if it means that much to you'
