I watched the beginning of her speech and it reminded me of her 2010 Ryder Cup performance.

She was Di Stewart then. She's a pretty good speaker- always energetic and positive. Edit: in response to SpitFisher above. Forgot to quote

I'll be getting up at 6 or so too. My day is busy tomorrow, so I'm going to have to miss the four ball. I'll catch the foursomes though, and I won't miss any of Saturday or Sunday's action. I'm bummed to miss the opening four ball, but sometimes there aren't enough hours in the day! Lol

Oh yeah.  Since the Telegraph is few views per month, you can circumvent this restriction (never tell them i told you) via Google Chrome incognito screens which wipe your memory.  This way lets you view all weekend.

Happy to see Sport1 (Dutch golf channel) is broadcasting the complete event on their HD channel. Especially in weekend, they mostly show football (soccer) on it and golf on a seperate (non HD) channel. This time they got their priorities right :)

Webb Simpson just sky'd a 3 wood off the 1st tee...went about 150 yards barely making it to the fairway from the tee area LOL. Rough start

Oh you know im up. Horrible tee shots from Bubba and Webb but pretty decent 2nd shots. Both teams make par and we're off!!!! Edit: Damn Kaymer! What a shot!

[taxgolf]

I think this could be a huge surprise. I feel the USA is so underrated. They could nick it.

[Silent]

Woow, Kaymer. What an approach...

[Silent]

Europe the first to win a hole.

[Mr. Desmond]

Woow, Kaymer. What an approach...

No kidding, circles the hole - kick in bird, and Walker gaffs the birdie...

[Crim]

Im now on a collective 5 hours of sleep over 48 hours. I needed to see the start but not sure how long I'll last...if I stop posting it means I've passed out. Kaymer puts his team at 1 up. Poulter had a noticeably much louder cheer than hometown hero Gallacher. Two good tee shots from the young US rookies. Update: ick...what a rough opening hole for Gallagher. Also was that a 3 putt from Bubba?
