The Ryder Cup

[Archibald&Crooks]

Tees off at 7.45am, who's gonna win?

I hope someone stuffs that Bubba Watson's club right up his arse.

England's Lee Westwood and Germany's Martin Kaymer will lead out Europe against the United States' Phil Mickelson and Dustin Johnson in the opening match of the 38th Ryder Cup at Celtic Manor.
Westwood, the world number three, has recovered from a calf injury and will partner the USPGA champion in the first fourball at 0745 BST on Friday.

Northern Irish duo Rory McIlroy and Graeme McDowell will play Stewart Cink and Matt Kuchar, while England's Ian Poulter and Ross Fisher will take on Tiger Woods and Steve Stricker.

In the final group, European captain Colin Montgomerie has paired Padraig Harrington and Luke Donald against US rookies Bubba Watson and Jeff Overton.

one bookies has already paid out on Europe....
Think Europe will win it by 2 points, but its should be a close run thing.

 

[Archibald&Crooks]

Yeah I read about that. That bookie has given the yanks a big motivational boost and probably had a good few quid on the US team along with it

Bubba Watson reckons he's never had a golf lesson in his life. Makes you sick doesn't it! :lol:

 

[Welshiespursboyo]

Going to see it live on sat yay!

 

[hutchiniho]

How ridiculous are the USA's waterproof jackets?

Names, lettering, flags

Although I think they could of found a bigger flag badge for the collar!

 

[Archibald&Crooks]

Play suspended due to the weather :lol:

We've made a good start though

 

[werty]

Play to resume at 5pm. :grin:

 

[Welshiespursboyo]

Should be an exciting final day! Come on Europe!

Great atmosphere on the first tee. Obviously it was daft to have any competitive event in Wales in October but it has worked in my favour as I will now get to watch all of the singles.

What a day we have in prospect.....should be amazing. I wish I was there and not stuck in this crummy office. It's looking good so far!!

Anyone happen to have a link not on MyP2P (blocked in work) a PM would be much appreciated.

If not, I'll keep listening.

 

[Legend10]

Westwood with some work to do to get something out of his match with Stricker now. 2 down with 3 to play. Donald 3 up after a Furyk miss though!

 

[spurs mental]

Miss from Cink from 3 feet to allow Rory to win the hole and get it back to all square!

Getting veeeery excting.

 

[spurs mental]

Get in Poults you legend!! Cracking win.

Come on now Rory, do your thing up the last against Cink!

 

[spurs mental]

Am I on my own in this thread? :lol:

Great half point from Rory there. Phew. 3 and a half points to go.

 

[haxman]

Just home from college, catching up. Looks like Kaymer got taught a lesson.

Good win for Poulter though.

FFS Fisher just there.

 

[Reids-Belly]

Considering i don't really like golf, i'm really enjoying this. Great performances from Poulter, Donald and Mcilroy. Jiminez and Mcdowell looking good. Come on Europe!!

 

[Reids-Belly]

WTF is up with Fisher?! He couldn't hit a cows arse with a very large guitar, let alone a banjo :lol:
