Another dubious call; another point for Europe.

Haha, my cell phone keeps auto-correcting stricker's name as "atrocity" in text messages. Pretty fitting.

I wonder if DL3's strategy is to keep Tiger and Stricker together to prevent them from ruining other matches. Limit the damage to one match instead of two.

Should have sat Stricker and gone Brandt-Tiger.

The last couple of hours have really been great entertainment. Incredible play by Poulter on the back nine. Five straight birdies?

True.

Or play Stricker for the front nine, have him fake a menstrual cramp then bring Tiger in for the back nine.

I didnt like both Furyk and Stricker on this team. I thought 1 but not both should be on it. Furyk seems to have been so so, Stricker looks lost.

You can tell Poulter is still pumped, he's practically yelling into the microphone at this press conference.

For all of his flaws (and the list is seemingly limitless), Ian Poulter has played well in Ryder Cups past. Poulter has been on every Ryder Cup team since 2004, and his overall record is 8-3. He’s a high energy guy that can get off to hot starts and put opponents away with fist pumps and patriotism alone.

:-)

      Day 430 - 2025-12-04 Slow motion backswings (with chippy shots) with AlmostGolf balls.

      Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.

      Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.

      Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
