Is it me or is their a preponderance of announcers with English accents on the Ryder Cup broadcast? Was there a coup? Is Queen Elizabeth II our ruling monarch again? Do I have to call fries ‘chips’ and apartments ‘flats’ now?😜

Ha! You have to say "well holed" instead of nice putt too.

As an anglophile (I lived in the UK for a while), I actually like British announcers in golf, something oddly soothing about it.

Let’s get this started. It is showing that golf channel is running out of things to talk about. The 1st day 1st matches announced tonight.

I miss Peter Alliss. He was as soothing as they go and provided an almost tranquil mood to a broadcast.

Reminds me of what the Euro's did in 2004; signs up all over Oakland Hills - NO AUTOGRAPHS. Team USA took that to heart, they didn't even acknowledge the fans (this was a Tuesday practice round). And most of  the European players would walk along the ropes around the green and up to the next tee, they had sharpies with them, and sign tickets, hats, programs, etc. 

I'm not sure it mattered once the event started, because it was a completely different crowd and atmosphere on Friday when they were playing keeps. And there wasn't nearly the social media then, but still they were much more engaging with the fans; and it was appreciated.

 Nothing really surprising with the picks besides Rahm Sergio. Did not see that being a team or 1st out for Euros. I like the Keopka Berger pairing. That is a balls to the wall pairing. 

Paul and Hovland was a bit of a surprise. However the Euros have been saying all week everyone wanted to play with him so maybe not. They will be playing 2 of the most relaxed Americans should be good.

'Harry Potter' star Tom Felton collapses while playing in Ryder Cup celebrity golf tournament

Tom Felton, the actor who played Draco Malfoy in the "Harry Potter" franchise, collapsed on...

Interesting here. Basically no revealed reason yet why he collapsed, just that he did. 

[Colins69]

Brooks said on the Golf Channel he didn't diss the Ryder cup the media put a negative spin on it, sad that Brooks won't man up to all he said. I will be surprised if USA win with the Brooks Bryson saga going on, I think the European players will not fell pissed if the partner hits a bad shot and that will be the difference. Going to enjoy the next 3 days..

 

Good luck to all the players....

Shocking the media put a negative spin on something.

Perhaps he has a bit of a poor attitude about the RC, but I’m happy to see folks share their feelings about things instead of just rattling off scripted statements. Sure, it’s a bummer he’s not super pumped for it, but maybe there’s more going on than we realize. Athletes are hardly the most open books out there or the most thoughtful in their statements. All too easy to read into things too much. 

[Vinsk]

I don’t think I’m buying the ‘y’all spun it that way’ comment. Yeah it’s different he said. But he could’ve said how the enthusiasm and excitement is different. How it’s different to be on a team which is cool. How the energy from the fans is different. He didn’t. It was hardly spun in a negative light.
