See the attachments in post #18 from Blue in Munich. They explain how a lot of the landing areas on the greens are miniscule and only accessible from the correct position on the fairway. This and the wind are the only defences.That 17th green is ridiculous, pathetic to my mind.

Tradition. Europe in the Ryder Cup is relatively new.Any reason why the Walker Cup is not USA v Europe? It makes sense surely, as per the Ryder Cup. I've looked at recent events and the USA win more and generally win big.
I get that but having seen the difference it made to the Ryder Cup, and keeping the format consistent, I would have thought it would make sense.

We need a head shaking emoji for this. Don't quite know what to sayI heard one of the American players stating how they have taken on "The rest of the World."
