Europe winning 2/3 of the points since getting skunked in the opening session is impressive. Pettersen did a great job coaching her squad after that morning. USA has typically done much better in the Singles. Waiting to see how it goes!

Interesting leaderboard this am. Kupcho is getting smoked and doesn’t look like any fight in her.

Not looking great for the US at the moment. They need to flip a few matches.

It sure isn’t. Kupcho match was rough. That woman shows no emotion no fire. Would not put her on another team if had the option.  Not a fan of what i saw

Is it me or does Korda look like she wants to be anywhere else than Spain.

Ole Lexi bringing on her classic choking. She really struggles with any pressure.

Just land on the god damn green. Someone needs to bring some valium for her down the stretch. Such a talent such a poor finisher.

I have to agree with this. I lost count of all the under five footers both teams missed on the last nine holes. What was even more amazing was seeing players give their opponent a free three footer. I guess they didn't want to see them choke, It's no wonder the Asian players dominate the LPGA. They can putt!

The TV coverage was mediocre at best. The graphics were poorly managed and we often didn't know the score of the match currently being shone, and the commentators were of little help, rarely telling us who was ahead or behind. They wouldn't show a graphic/score of the current match until the player was shooting her shot. The American lead commentator (Terry Gannon) was heavily biased toward the U.S. team, so much so that he lost all relevance, going so far as to say that an American player could win the match if she just birdied the last two holes when she was one down. She needed to win the hole she was on just to keep from going dormie.

Fun day. Looked like both the US and Europe would win at different points. It knew it was over when Nelly missed the hole on 16 from less than 10 feet. Putting her and Lexi out last was very questionable.

Interesting to think about this. Lexi is the US’s most experienced player and doesn’t have a bad singles record also. After the win she is 2-1-2. On form she hasn’t been very good but Ian Poulter plays like a god in these things so form isn’t always a good indicator. I don’t mind that pick. Nelly is the US’s best player by rankings and was 2-0-0 in singles going into that match. 

I think team line up decisions earlier on in the match are more suspect those final two choices.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By DaveP043 · Posted

      In the old days, pre-2020, "playing to your handicap" meant a net score about equal to the Course Rating.  that led to problems when people played against each other from different tees, people playing tees with a lower CR would generally shoot lower scores.  Course Handicaps were adjusted for each competition to make it even, usually lowering the course handicap for the "forward tee" players. So now if you "play to your handicap", the (68.4-72) term means your score will be even par, no matter which tees you play from.  No adjustment needed for people playing from different tees.  Look at your example, the guy shoots 82 every time, his Course Handicap of 10 gives him an even par net score every time.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By iacas · Posted

      Because of the 68.4-72 part. If he shoots 10 over par (his course handicap), he will have shot his index. You don't factor par in when you calculate the differential, but you do when you calculate the course handicap. That's where the difference comes in. It works symmetrically: guy shoots 82 and gets a 12.4. Guy plays off a 12.4 and… has to shoot 82.
