Not quite the halfway point of the 4-ball matches, but the inevitable EURO push back seems to be happening. If the score ends up 4 to 4, it's better than I expected, but back to another morning high wire act tomorrow for the US.

The great 4-ball, combined total of 13 to 15 birdie match, or bogie-free back and forth alternate shot match is rare. Maybe we'll get one of those before the cup is over.

The golden age architects felt that water hazards should be used sparingly. Generally they preferred allowing for recovery shots over forced carries. Valhalla in some ways is antithetical to that principal.

Oh, but the pendulum is swinging back in the direction of the United States yet again on the back nine. Kim and Mickelson are now 1 up through 14, Leonard and Mahan are holding steady, and Holmes and Weekley are finally gaining momentum through the turn. Only the Stricker/Curtis-Rose/Poulter match is looking like a lock for Europe right now.

In my UnderArmour Links stand bag...

Driver: '07 Burner 9.5° (stiff graphite shaft)
Woods: SasQuatch 17° 4-Wood (stiff graphite shaft)
Hybrid: 4DX Ironwood 20° (stiff graphite shaft)Irons/Wedges: Apex Edge 3-PW, GW, SW (stiff shaft); Carnoustie 60° LWPutter: Rossa AGSI+ Corzina...

I wouldnt bet on it, all square again and Kim will bottle it. Mickelson is getting tired of carrying him imo. As I say that Padraig lands a peach from 237. C'mon Europe.

I'm right, and you're wrong. AK/Phil beat the Irishmen, 1 Up. Leonard/Mahan crush the Spaniards, 4&3, and Southern Hospitality is 1 up with 4 to play.

An interesting morning!

A more interesting afternoon. Especially when two (actually 3 with Perry's morning plop!) of the locals were more content to go fishing than put it safely in the fairway.

The Kentucky mantra... Don't put it in the water, don't put it in the water, don't put it in the water, don't put it in the water, don't put it in the water, don't put it in the water, don't put it in the water... Plop! I put it in the water. Though truth be told it was a good day for the U.S. I really liked the Lefty/Kim pairing. I think Kim put some life into Phil. Leonard and Mahan? WOW! Hunter is letting his clubs do the talking. Tomorrow is another day and I'll be watching!

Your medal is in the mail. Today is another day, a little suprised that Garcia is dropped for the morning. Westwood also, Faldo very brave (or foolish there).

      My Swing (Ty_Webb)

      By Ty_Webb · Posted

      Got told off yesterday for doing full swings and full speed swings so went to the range this lunchtime and did some slow speed stuff and freezers. A few videos from my session.    First few are DTL then some FO This one is of me looking at the club on the way back. I think I get my arms lifting all the way back, not that you’d know because YouTube keeps glitching on me.    Second one is two slow backswings. This glitches the first one but the glitch looks like a pretty good position so I’ll live. Second one works. Then another swing back and hit. When I’m not watching or really focusing on it it seems that my upper arm doesn’t lift at first, rather stays roughly where it is and I add the lift at the end so the club comes a bit more inside. I think that’s what I’m going to focus on. This one glitches a bit too but it’s really just pausing. This shows the club coming a bit more inside but not as laid off at the top Then a couple of face on ones And lastly one smoothie and one freezer at normal speed  Quite happy with how this went. I can see my arms are better when I take it slower. Also while I’m still pitching my arms out it doesn’t seem to be as extreme as yesterday. Light at the end of the tunnel 🙂

      Pablo, you can’t get much safer than cash and a public meetup spot. Don’t know what happened to you there.  Always check their profile to make sure they have either sold stuff, have other things for sale and have a profile that shows they don’t join FB the day before.  Be wary if the price is too low, but those are usually the people who joined 2 days ago and have nothing in their profile .  Craigslist is the place full of scumbags usually.
