where oh where is the deep fescue, where is the deep nasty rough.....They have tamed and otherwise brutal course. The hosting Captain of the RC, Keagan Bradley makes those decisions well in advance. 

I guess he didn’t know the world number one was gonna play like a hack.

He definitely should've done better in 4 ball. Being saddled with Henley TWICE in 4 somes made it nearly impossible.

It feels like the euro played a bunch of practice rounds and the US team went and got hair cuts, manicures and never played the course once.

 

There are a couple of US members that really shouldn't have been on the team, schaufele being 1, they said yesterday he has only played 2 tournements since july.

 

Boy can those euros putt

 

744 million vs 340 million

I’m not sure what you mean by 744 million vs 340 million

Cam Young vs Justin Rose should be a great match.

I hope Bryson wins.

You think that would've made a difference? Euros are definitely ball striking much better than US.

 

The supersoft greens are rooning it for me. I hate when the balls basically plug on the putting surface.  I know they can't control the weather but maybe they shouldn't schedule it at a course without sub air.

Sub air on a public course is a reach.

Weird just heard Hovaland is out with neck injury.So no match between Harris English and him. Both sides get a half point.the erou  team could feasibly be injured and win without playing a hole.

Probably cost 3x green fees of Bethpage.

Being as it’s a must win situation I’m surprised he didn’t move Harris English into Colin Morikawas  spot. But not surprised.

I was thinking the same thing, however, isnt there a very specific and very difficult specs for US opens?  Is there some kind of course set up for the Ryder cup?

Comparable for non residents. Torrey is around $50 cheaper than BP for residents.
