[Other Sport] Ryder cup 2018.

[PILTDOWN MAN]

Can’t hear “in the hole” from thick yanks. Wonder why?

Great morning

Fantastic so far. Carried on the momentum from yesterday. I had a feeling the US wouldn't click as a team (as usual) and that would give us a big chance despite them having a lot of top, top golfers, but I didn't think it would be like this. Still a long way to go though...

I would equate it more to the Prem league v La Liga or the MLS etc. I’m sure we would all support the Prem despite it being full of foreigners

Yes and of course the European Ryder Cup team is rammed full of pesky foreigners like McIlroy, Fleetwood, Hatton, Poulter, Casey & Rose.

Can't imagine why anyone British would support them.

What an image that was, Poults pumping the chest with Rahm behind him.

Can't imagine why anyone British would support them.

And besides, we are European, so it's not really a question anyway - of course Europeans would support Europe, whether or not there were many Brits playing!

I think it was built for PGA tour events held one and that was it. It's a nice course but a Dustin Johnson drive away from being a Ryder Cup venue.

Like this one?

Indeed and especially against the yanks!

Indeed and especially against the yanks!

Absolutely!! Love watching them crumble as a team whilst the Europeans - speaking multiple languages and from different cultures - come together so superbly time after time. And the pure passion from players like Poulter, what's not to love?

Crowd "shhhh"ing Reid. [emoji23]

Rory AND Sergio

Rory and Sergio desperately trying to lose. Sake.

Edit: Just playing with us. Boom! 2&1 Rory & Sergio

Two brilliant putts.

 

[KZNSeagull]

Boom! Casey & Hatton 3&2

 

[LlcoolJ]

Reid is having an absolute nightmare. Ha ha!

 

[LlcoolJ]

That 15th hole is an absolute monster. What a shot by Molinari.

 

[KZNSeagull]

Boom! Molinari & Fleetwood 4&3

Woods' magnificent Ryder Cup record continues.

8-3

 

[LlcoolJ]

Tommy must be thinking that the Ryder Cup is a piece of piss.

 

[Billy Seagull]

I have no idea why Franny and Tommy are odds against Tiger and Twatrick and fully expect them to win again. 11/10 is a gift, in my opinion, and have helped myself accordingly.

It should be another great day.

Hope some others helped themselves to the free money. Whoever plays Twatrick tomorrow is an absolute shoo-in.

What a morning for Europe and if Rahm and Poulter can nick a half that would top it off. The Yanks look beaten.

 

[KZNSeagull]

Foursomes:

Stenson and Rose v Johnson and Koepka
Garcia and Noren v Watson and Simpson
Molinari and Fleetwood v Woods and Dechambeau
Poulter & McIlroy v Speith and Thomas

 

[LlcoolJ]

So 8-4 after the morning. Hopefully pile the pressure on this afternoon as we're the superior team by far in foursomes.

Would love to see Rory and Poults take down Speith and garden gnome lookalike Thomas. They're a particularly dislikeable pair (although great players obviously).

Woods and Bryson looks like a car crash waiting to happen v Fleetwood and Franco but who knows.

What a brilliant tournament.
