OT: Ryder Cup

[Chin Diesel]

I was gonna go with Scott Verplank, but Pate is a fine guess.

The hole in for eagle required some luck, but the 33 ft putt for eagle was sheer stones.

Play like that is why I watch. Don't really care who wins, just want to see amazing golf under pressure. And it's all pressure.

Hovland's putt and Rahm's putt on 18 added a bonus point to Europe. Everything fans have seen over past 25-30 years at Ryder Cups. Europe makes putts and US doesn't.

Schauffele choking all day with putts inside of 10'.

Nothing has changed. He cant make big putts in the Majors and big Tourneys.

And Max Homa proves your point.

The 18th is proving to be the US's Waterloo.

Morning session, Fitzpatrick and 18th hole are all Waterloos. Europe snaked 1.5 point on last hole.

Clark completely spit the bit on 18.

That was a rough watch. Sleeping in tomorrow morning, no reason to wake up early again. First time time the US didnt win a single match for the day. Unreal.

My brother bet on Europe at the new XL Center Sportsbook!

If Europe goes 8-0 tomorrow to close it out, you'll have missed an amazing bit of sports history.

Given the US hasn't won in Europe in a generation and a half, even before today that bet had less risk than betting UConn football to cover vs Tennessee.

Roman Massacre

 

[wingsfan055]

Utter embarrassment. Were the U.S. players not allowed to practice the last 3 holes?!? Europeans playing like this means something, while Americans use this as a family vacation. I wouldn't be surprised if there is a record margin of victory.

USA was favored.

 

[Chin Diesel]

USA was favored.

It was breaking late hard in favor of Europe and I heard on the radio some of the books actually flipped to Europe. I made no effort to fact check what I heard on the radio.

 

[Chin Diesel]

Need to go 5-3 tomorrow at a minimum to make Sunday's singles matches worth somwthing.

All that matters is that his ticket says "Europe +125".

 

[HitDog]

Last four Ryder Cups

19-9 US
17.5-10.5 Europe
17-11 US
16.5-11.5 Europe

Apparently their is a big home course advantage.

 

[mauconnfan]

Fitzpatrick first 5 holes I saw he made 73 feet of putts all one putts 4 birds and an eagle. Pretty tough to beat that!!

I played Green Mountain National I’m Killlington VT and missed most of the afternoon rounds thank God.

 

[uconngb]

C'mon GB. Stop being vague and tell us who it is. Tiger? Must be Steve Pate.

Damn you guys are good

 

[mauconnfan]

Leading off JT-Spieth in the alternate shot? Wow hope it works but Spieth couldn’t hit it straight yesterday.

 

[mauconnfan]

Spieth is clueless on the course not sure what gummies Zach took before thinking of leading him off this morning in a crucial match. And Sheffler Koepka 5 over after 3 holes put them in huge trouble. Starting to look like they should just shake hands end of todays rounds and grab an early flight the hell outta there!

 

[storrsroars]

Seems there's a non-zero chance this thing could be over today.

If that happens, I'm expecting the Euros to employ hair of the dog to get thru Sunday's matches, which would be extremely entertaining.

 

[Bomber36]

Bad start to the day.

 

[HitDog]

My thought was it couldn’t be worse than yesterday. I was wrong again.

 

[TMB4405]

How as pro golfers do u lose 9 of 11 holes in match play? This is awful.

 

[Kathy]

Glad I didn't get up early to watch

 

[storrsroars]

Well, they got a full point in one match. And they ensured Europe doesn't close out today.
