Any bets or thoughts on how this is going to go? I thought USA at first but after studying the course a little, i fancy europe to bring it home.

I used to love the Ryder Cup and will still watch most of it but do find it all a bit uncouth and brash these days. The crowds seem to be made up of mostly b*llends.

 

[Les Beeavinu]

This is an awesome start to the tournament!

Golf rule question please. I thought you had to remove the flag when playing a ball from the green but I think I just saw that not happen. Anyone know what the rule is?

 

[Les Beeavinu]

Was a tiny bit of red on the board for a short while there but that's been tidied up now.

You can choose either to take the flag out or leave it in these days. It changed a few years ago I think the idea being that it might help speed up play, mainly in the amateur game

Thanks, didn't know that. Always thought leaving it in would be an advantage tbh.

New rule introduced 2-3 years ago. You can now leave the flag in when your ball is on the putting surface.

Well you always used to be able to, but you got a penalty for hitting the flagpole...

Just heard on the Totally Football podcast that the Ryder Cup is the reason Forest v Brentford was chosen as the only Sunday game for Sky.

Well it's the reason there's only one match on. It won't be on the Main Event channel either.

[Banana]

"We". We're not in Europe anymore..........

Have we moved the Island to just off the Ivory Coast?

 

[WombleBee]

Last time I looked the UK was part of the continent of Europe unless I've misunderstood your meaning and European players from non EU countries should be excluded from the Ryder Cup.

 

[Untouchable]

Justin Rose birdies the 18th ??

[Super_horns]

Quick start tomorrow and they will give up morale wise.

Come on Europe.

They do look a bit miserable. Always think that USA never look a team in the way Europe do.

It’s an individual sport. And I agree. Woods hated it until he was about 35.

IIRC correctly he even said he had to imagine it was the final round of a major and he was tied for the lead.

Tomorrow morning's 4 points

06:35 start in the UK.
