Ryder cup excitement, GO USA
 
45,000 fans stay safe, disappointed in Speith/Thomas yesterday but Jordan had shot of day, too bad Thomas didn't make putt., maybe today will be better.

Speith and Thomas have been a huge disappointment. I was surprised to see Thomas drive on the first hole this morning. It seems that most groups have the shorter driver drive on one so the bomber can drive on the par five second.

It is great to see the US up however. Things are much tighter this morning. Hope they can hold on.

Crowds remind me of Happy Gilmore, loud, rude and disrespectful of the etiquette rules of golf. Flame me if you want, just the way I see it.

Coming from Wisconsin and living near this golf course makes me homesick, (but just a little.)
Having fished Lake Michigan in the past, I find watching the lake conditions more then the golfers........LOL

As in most Ryder Cup's, on paper, it shouldn't even be close, with the USA having a huge advantage. However, the Europeans have proved time and time again, that as a "team" they are tough to beat. I just want good matches, good sportsmanship and for the 'ugly' fans to be kept to a minimum.

Finally, my boy Jordan came thru for Americans, yea!

Yes, why can't they be perfect 100% of the time.

There's just no possible way that we can now lose it in singles tomorrow, correct? Please tell me I'm correct - please.

USA has to lose 9 of the 12 matches... Not very likely, but not impossible, either...

Originally, the Ryder Cup was started to honor sportsmanship between the U.S. and the U.K. Todays fans "ugly" behavior makes me cringe when I see them yelling during their opponents swing, yelling that they hope it goes in the tall weeds, applauding when they miss a putt. A disgrace.
If the Europeans exhibit this "ugly" behavior when we visit them, then that is equally shameful.
The real winner should be sportsmanship as Jack Nicklaus did with Tony Jacklin years ago, not who gets to hold the trophy for 2 years.

What a golf course, sure not for the faint of heart.

stevemac 09-26-2021 06:10 AM
