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 :)

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!

Woow, Kaymer. What an approach...


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

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?

    • Is it? I bought the Stack radar to replace my PRGR based on what Stack told me! When I am swinging for speed, the PRGR would miss 50%-80% of my backswings due to a higher speed. The stack seldom misses those- at least for me.
    • As an analyst by nature, I would like to compare the scores under both systems. It is something we can easily do if we have the data. I actually thought the new system was less fair to those whose game was on the decline - like mine! Old: Best 10 of last 20 scores with the .96 multiplier. Course handicap excluded course rating and overall par. New: Best 8/20. Course handicap includes course rating -par. My understanding is Stableford caps scores at Net double bogey like stroke play. If so, handicap should be slower to rise because you are only using 8 versus 10 scores. If I am missing something, I am curious enough to  want to understand what that may be. My home course tees that I play are 72.1/154 now. My best score out here is 82. When my game started to decline, my handicap didn’t budge for 13 rounds because of good scores in my first 8! I know I am an anomaly but my handicap has increased almost 80% in the past few years (with only a few rounds this year). For a few months I knew I was losing every bet because my game was nowhere near my handicap. I suspect I have steamrolled a few nuances but that shouldn’t matter much. When I have modeled this with someone playing the same tees and course, one good round, or return to form, will immediately reduce the handicap by some amount.
