Ryder Cup 2012

[Billy Seagull]

3-1 to Europe after the foursomes for me.

The Yankees look shit scared & our pairings look strong.

i'm going for a narrow Europe Victory - was 3/1 best priced i believe!

If the US course management is as chaotic as their Fly-Past management the cup will be coming home.

After one of those really irritating female warbley solo renditions for of their National Anthem, everyone looked skywards and nothing happened. According to 5 Live, not only were the airforce late but they then missed and went to the wrong place completely.

Epic Fail! One might even risk a LOL?

Looking forward to Super Sunday when I expect there won't be much in it going into the singles. Could be a classic tussle.

USA go one up in the fit wives competition.

Europe pull it back to AS in the cool sunglasses competition

Just wait until the American wives get excited and open their mouths, they make a horrible noise.

Coverage starts at 12:30pm on Sky Sports 1.

Still can't see us winning this one. As usual we'll do well in the foursomes and fourballs, but lose it on the singles.

 

[Billy Seagull]

6-4 about Europe winning the foursomes Today looks very big to me.

 

[Titus]

Then you should know better than to be so blasé. Foolish talk with no grounds for reality

As I said earlier, tell me after it's finished.

 

[Questions]

Europe will walk it. I have no idea why the OP thinks that the USA are huge favourites, it's rare for them to win a major these days.

What about the 2 this year they have won.

 

[Titus]

What about the 2 this year they have won.

What about the 2 that they didn't?

 

[Questions]

What about the 2 that they didn't?

You said they rarely win them. 1994 was the last time an American did NOT win at least one of the majors.

Jose Maria Olazabal will motivate the European team to another memorable victory, in my humble opinion.

How do the points work? Never watched golf anyone explain the scoring for the ryder cup please

It's match-play, so 1 point up for grabs in each match, 28 points in total. 14 1/2 wins it outright, a draw and the "holder" keeps the cup.
There are 3 types of match, Fourballs, Foursomes and singles.
Day 1 has 4 foursomes in the morning, then 4 fourballs in the afternoon. The same format on Sat, Sun is singles where everyone plays.

Is this the "Official" Ryder Cup Thread? Surley we must have more excitement brewing amongst the family of NSC than 34 posts over 3 days? I am almost at weeing stage through excitement?
