I think it's shame for those at the tail end .

What about next time playing the singles with a 2 tee start? Serious suggestion- then the numbers 8-12 could contribute as much as 4-6

Interesting concept - tough for the Captain's to pick the order plus TV coverage already sporadic in terms of those matches towards the end...does seem a huge anti climax for those still with several holes to play.

I seem to remember 8-12 contributed more than enough in Medina.;)

Luck of the draw, sometimes it's a bit "after the lord mayors show", sometimes the whole destiny of the Ryder Cup is on your shoulders.

I agree. You can be a hero like Kaymer two years ago or playing in a surreal atmosphere like Dubuisson today. It's how it pans out but I'd have fancied him to stand up and make the putt if it had come down to it

Quite strange watching the team have their photo taken on the first tee of the kings course where our photos were done 3 weeks ago.

I wouldn;t complain about the coverage if I were you ;)


I'm not really complaining, just think all the players deserved a wee share of the screen time. Not showing much of the final 2 or 3 pairings was a little bit poor. Nonetheless, I'm still a happy camper tonight. :D
