Europe should win, but they won't......my prediction is that is somehow comes down to the singles match between golden boy Rory McIlroy and the darth vader of golf, Tiger Woods.....and McIlroy gets his ASS handed to him...on the 15th green (where the match finishes), Tiger says...."Until you win a major, you are simply a minor-leaguer to me...fancy that"

Seems like there's a lot of pull for Rory and Rickie facing each other in singles, which would be pretty great.

USA will pull off the upset again and win. I have faith in the guys. I just hope Cink doesn't see much action. He's good in singles (I think) but that's about it.

I think that Europe should win since they can set their course up.... but I also have faith in our team. There has been so much talk this year about Americans falling off in golf, that I can just feel a beating coming!!

Europe. U.S. should have retained Azinger as captain. I have not been impressed in the least so far in Pavin as captain, based on what I hear from him in the media; he's definitely not the most articulate and confident speaker I've heard. Plus Europe is back home and this should be enough to put them over the top.

My Tools of Ignorance:

Driver: Ping I20 9.5*
Woods/Hybrids: Cobra AMP 3W and 3 HY

Irons: Cobra AMP 4-GW

Putters: Scotty Cameron  35" (Several of the flow neck blade variety)

Ball: Bridgestone B330-RX and Srixon Z-Star

Bag: Nike Performance Carry

I agree...I admit I am a huge Tiger fan (regardless of his off course antics) but just like Stephen Ames before Rory, etc... I see Tiger getting the chance for 1 on 1 with Rory...and giving him his A game. Would be very exciting to see.

Kinda hard to see Europe losing. On their home course. Everything is really lining up for them. With all that....watch them lose! LOL One thing the US team will have going for it is they will go in (I anticipate) as the underdog with nothing to lose.

I am looking forward to it.

Well my heart is with the red, white, & blue. But if I have to put my wallet up I'd have to go with Europe. But there is hope, Europe has Monty as Captain.

I am not sure. Being an american, I can't say Europe is going to win but they look good. Cink?? Really. What a bad pick. I am excited though, it is the best golf event by far IMO for viewing. GO USA!!!

There is another thread on this but I agree. I would have picked JB myself. But Cink can play and I hope he does.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By WillieT · Posted

      Day 27 (7 Dec 25) - Got in a few swings with 9i and hard foam balls in backyard.  Setup weight fwd (rebuilt left foot really lets me feel the weight in a slightly painful way) - kept the backswing to around 9 o’clock focusing on contact and resulting divot pattern.  Like how the hard foam balls come off the face (almost like real balls in sound).  A good abbreviated session as I only able to hit about a dozen balls in the fading light.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By iacas · Posted

      Not the part I was replying to: Handicaps did not go down much (like 0.14 on average IIRC?) when we went from 10/20*0.96 to 8/20. And a good chunk of that was from the +s.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By Ty_Webb · Posted

      I think he meant in the UK. The old system was completely different from the new one. 10/20 x 0.96 vs 8/20 would really only impact very low handicaps I think. The 0.96 serves to increase differentials for plus differentials, where 8/20 vs 10/20 works to lower differentials for all. I don't know many plus golfers who would be upset that their index got lower. A lot of really good players don't even really keep their handicaps up-to-date. They're much more interested in their WAGR rankings which get them entries to certain events.

      Day 433 - 2025-12-07 Got some work in after Junior Elite before a night of sports (and the return of my wife!). Backswing work. Similar to what a lot of my juniors are doing.
