As things stand we are looking down at 6-2...not coming back from that

Never heard of Medinah?

 

[Tony Towner]

They are stronger and we are weaker than Medinah

Did you watch any of it yesterday?

 

[Tony Towner]

All the foursomes and the last hour or so of the four balls.
8 of the top 10 ranked players are American and only 1 European. At Medinah 4 of the Top 5 in the World were Brits. Hence my comment

 

[Johnny75]

World ranking is American biased and means very little other than who is running those tournaments.

The games were close yesterday not the hammering you're making them out to be.

McIlroy and Poulter look terrible and cost Europe points. Others look in great form.

It needs a big day today and I fancy us in the morning foursomes.

 

[Stan Hullis]

Should have at least another point in our favour based on the Fleetwood/Hovland partnership yesterday - they should have nailed that game at the turn but let the opportunity slip.

USA got 20 birdies in the foursomes yesterday which is pretty much unheard of in that format.

Advantage is certainly with them but I wouldn't count us out of it yet and there was some outstanding golf on show for both sides as long as it wasn't Rory who is stinking the place out unfortunately, he's been rightly dropped from the foursomes this morning and although I imagine he will be back for the fourballs later.

 

[Johnny75]

Early doors but that's a slow start.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Should be two blue matches and two red after Spieth carts it into the drink.

 

[Johnny75]

This is done now.

9-3 is too big of a lead.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Totally over unless the four balls is a 4-0 win

The lady can starting warming her voice this is all over

 

[jd1981]

Can see the US only needing 2.5 tomorrow

Yep, too many mistakes from Hatton, Westwood and Casey.

 

[Del Woppio]

Ugh that's been a very depressing 6 hours. Hard to take any positives from that. Those little half hour spells where every putt drops have been all red so far. 11 points looks impossible from this point, some really poor shots played

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

This session has to be four nil. Anything less is curtains.

 

[jd1981]

I think Europe will struggle to make double figures

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Decent start to the four balls but it’s very early days. And McIlroys first drive was total shite.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Dechambeau being an utter cunt shocker.

Dechambeau being an utter cunt shocker.

We're living rent free in his head right now though. As McGinley said I hope they make him putt a shorter one next time.

 

[Stan Hullis]

Take a bow John Rahm. Some player.
