I'm not really sure what your big hangup with this is.  The Ryder Cup is a team event (and an exhibition with no money on the line mind you).  Do you not cheer when your favorite football/soccer team'

On another note, when is the PGA going to wake up to picking US venues that may favor the American squad a little more from a weather standpoint? Basically the entire team lives in South Florida and v

Kudos for spelling.  You know, though, that there are a ton of people confused by your post and going "huh?  Europe is usually the winner of the two teams."

It will be interesting to see how Westwood chokes away a 2-up lead.

Haha...he didn't have to choke, since Moore just went nuts on him.

Sneds dormie, Moore all square with one to play, DJ 2-up with three to play. The outcome is looking inevitable.

Sullivan had a tough task today; he hadn't played since Friday morning.

DJ can't force Wood to dormie on the 16th; it looks like Moore is going to secure the winning point.

Yeah, I really don't understand the comment about Reed.  How is anything that he has done different than what Rory (or many others) has done?  I don't think either party has acted like 6 year old, I think they're playing with more passion than they do at any other golf event and it's great to watch IMO.  And this is coming from a guy who can only stand Patrick Reed for three days every two years....

 

 

Also Pieters is finding out that the Ryder Cup is a lot more difficult when you don't get to ride Rory's shoulders the whole time...  It's one on one now and he looks overmatched.

Love the black hat "Are you F*&%ING KIDDING ME?????"

Pieters is a diesel, just warming up.

Ha ha. Out of his depth my arse! The guy has been amazing.

Agh well. Bit of a thumping in the end. At least it'll be two years before being subjected to 'USA USA USA' over and over again.

Now, looking forward to 2018. It will be 25 years since the U.S. won on European soil, or successfully defended the Cup. Who are the captains?

Excellent job by Team USA. But France 2018 is going to be tough-very difficult, European style course and the weather won't be great either.

Darren Clarke on telly looking very jolly and upbeat-obviously been on a big jolly. That's why be brought along his drinking pal Westwood.

Ultimately Reed will be tamed by the Superior Rory... Really... because I'm curious Hardballs, how does that taste? :beer:

Hahaha, I've been waiting for this! seriously, although a talented guy, I never knew Reed was capable of playing golf consistently to that standard, he was the man of the tournament, he earned all his points and I tip my hat to him and your team!

congrats!

Well played USA, based on the entire week this is a deserved victory. They were the better side and holed the putts. 

From the European perspective, quite disappointing that 4 players did not pick up a single point. Especially Westwood was painful to watch. Looking back,that was not a good pick.

That is the most golf I have ever watched over a 3 day period. My back is killing me, but I have an appointment with doctor feelgood in 1 hour. CONGRATS TEAM USA!!!

You said it brother! I watched every minute of it myself and my lower back is on fire. I thankfully have a very generous and understanding doctor and in 15 minutes I should feel better as well. 

I gotta say I'm relieved that this didn't come down to a must make 6 footer for the US to win. My heart couldn't take that.

Congrats USA!

      Are you a Better Golfer than a Year Ago?

      By Sammydreep ·

      Yes, slightly. Hitting driver and three wood much better, generally straight or a slight draw, Especially since I upgraded from ping G 410 to G 430. Both clubs have 2degrees more loft. That together with a slight swing  change, improved technology ,definitely getting more distance.  On the downside not hitting my ions as well as normal, pitching definitely improving, especially for someone who got to a four handicap 30 years ago and couldn’t pitch . Chipping a bit up and down, pardon the pun, that was definitely one of the reasons I got to that  handicap when I played many moons  ago, ( I stopped playing for 20 years), better short putter than I was before Had quite a few opportunities to shoot my age, 73, mostly didn’t chip as well as I could when I had the chance.
