Ryder Cup 2018

[NoleinATL]

The Woods Reed pairing shouldnt be allowed to sit together at lunch much less play any more roumds together.

 

[SeaPA]

Big comeback by Koepka and Finau, who looked to be dead 45 minutes ago

I can only assume nobody else wants to play with either of those guys

 

[NoleinATL]

Dang it Sergio. Nice putt

 

[SeaPA]

Well crap. I Jinxed them. Great clutch putt by Sergio

 

[DFSNOLE]

Serge loves this type of competition. He fires up the entire European team with his energy.

 

[noleclone2]

This is a bloodbath.

 

[NoleinATL]

Likley 8 to 4 going into afternoon foursomes. We might be in trouble.

 

[SeaPA]

Helluva start. Am I weird for wanting US to win but not totally dominate so there’s some drama on Sunday? The Sunday’s singles matches are the best but a lot less fun if the title is all but wrapped up.

Hey Quaz, have the Euros been competitive enough for you so far? Can you remove the pins from the voodoo dolls & let us win a point - or even a half- before we are closed out?

 

[NoleinATL]

Serge loves this type of competition. He fires up the entire European team with his energy.

And Molinari looks to be the the next great Euro player that fires up his side with emotion and huge putts

I think the Germans are bombing Pearl Harbor.

 

[Ohio1nole]

How much of this is on the lack of adjustments in the pairings by Furyk?

I’m gonna lose it if Phil is out there in foursomes

 

[NoleinATL]

Woods has been awful. Dont understand that pick for the afternoon

 

[SeaPA]

Afternoon pairings are out. Phil and Reed sitting. Surprised slightly that Tiger is going again, but we don’t have a lot of options. Phil is playing like crap, so are Bubba and Reed. Ugly.

 

[SeaPA]

Thomas has made a couple of huge pressure putts over the last few holes to hang on to the lead.

 

[noleclone2]

Got to hang onto this point and break this streak.

 

[SeaPA]

Think Reed has to hand over the shield to Justin Thomas.

 

[Ohio1nole]

Think Reed has to hand over the shield to Justin Thomas.

Exactly.. he’s too busy trying to always be shushing the crowd.. that style doesn’t really work in golf.

JT is quickly climbing in my personal favorite golfers list.

 

[DFSNOLE]

We'll see how Dechambeau handles pressure

 

[DFSNOLE]

Halved with triples. That happens at the DFSCC not the Ryder Cup!

 

[NoleLizards]

Poulter's teeing off with an iron on the par 4 1st.

After contact, fan yells "Get in the hole!"

 

[SeaPA]

We'll see how Dechambeau handles pressure

Molinari hits his drive n the drink, and Bryson follows him up by also hitting it in the drink. Think, man. Hit a 3w. and keep it left. Easily won hole, and he lets them off the hook

But his analytics said.....

He apparently forgot to convert to metrics.

 

[Formerly Rockymtnole]

The US team’s selfies were better though.

 

[NoleMoreTears]

Issue all along, why I picked Europe, is the US driving accuracy relative to how Bjorn would set up the course. This was never ours to win but dang we’re playing awful.

Feels like I’m watching the Labor Day Virginia Tech game again.

 

[QuaZ2002]

What’s up with the on course audio or lack there of? It’s so weird. Dead silence except for the announcers.

 

[seminoleed]

The only plus I see coming out of this embarrassment is that the network who forced All Tiger, All Day on us this year will take a financial bath tomorrow when nobody tunes in to watch.

It ain't over yet! Did we quit when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor??

That’s every network who covers golf bc he moves the needle. This is always such a silly complaint by “golf guy”. Networks cover what most people want to see bc they want as many eyeballs as possible watching. If people didn’t want to watch Tiger he wouldn’t get all the coverage, it’s really that simple.

 

[NoleinATL]

Come on Brooks , we need at least half a point

 

[NoleinATL]

So we will start singles out down 10-6. Needing 8 points to retain. I would send Spieth and Thomas out first to hopefully get some positive energy early.

When Jordan & Justin were buddies in junior golf, I wonder if they ever imagined playing in the Ryder Cup together....

Why so angry?

 

[NoleinATL]

We had a great comeback tonight after being out of it at half today , can the good guys do it tomorrow. Down big at half, but some good match ups if our guys play to their level

Outstanding first match. Thomas has been our best player, need that 1st point and hopefully quickly

Furyk has made awful picks and awful pairings. Bryson nor Phil should have ever been on this team. Then sitting Fowler and Finau for the likes of Phil and Bryson is just beyond me. Tom Watson is smiling tonight.
