September 26, 20241 yr It seems like there are lots of driver, wedge, putt holes on this course. Not the most compelling layout for a team event.

September 26, 20241 yr I kind of like this US squad. Decent mix of fiery guys and quiet robots. Except Patrick Cantlay can fuck himself, of course.
September 26, 20241 yr 14 minutes ago, 4th&Five said: 5-0 You're only saying that because they haven't won in 26 years.
September 26, 20241 yr Can someone refresh me on the selection? Going by OWGR Bryson, Keegan, Burns and Horschel could have made the squad. Did certain guys not want to play or didn't get an invite?
September 27, 20241 yr Author He picked 7-12 in Presidents cup points. Keegan and Burns are on the team.

So Bryson didn't go because he doesn't get as many points on LIV. Or because they wanted to avoid controversy. Or both. I guess I'm okay with the LIV guys being excluded but I also reaaaallly like winning the Ryder Cup. It's not like it fucking matters for this one. And he's probably the only obvious choice playing LIV anyway - Koepka as a maybe.
September 27, 20241 yr Author Probably a bit of both. I’d guess if he plays in the majors like he did this year Bryson will be on the RC team.
September 27, 20241 yr Author I’m hoping for a Saturday clinch. If that happens do they even go out there on Sunday?

September 27, 20241 yr Cantlay/Xander getting swamped. disaster so far. maybe scottie can save one point today.
September 27, 20241 yr U.S team playing like they think they won the cup yesterday. Currently 0-4-1, most of which are blowouts.
September 27, 20241 yr Even though yesterday was 5-0 all the matches were close. Today, the Americans are just embarrassing themselves.
September 27, 20241 yr JFC, Day hits a shot way right and all Harmon has to do is put it in the middle of the green. Nope, he hits one just as bad, if not worse.

September 27, 20241 yr Are they all playing drunk today, or did the sponsors promise them some extra bank if they throw today so the weekend will draw more viewers? I'm lucky to break 100 when I play and I can hit shots better than what they're hitting today.
September 27, 20241 yr Harmon and Homa just choked away a chance to pick up a hole when they're down 2.

September 28, 20241 yr If the US brings this group of guys to Bethpage, the Euros are gonna destroy us. We’re just not very deep. Brian Harmon and Wyndham Clark have been career spares. We can’t lean on them. Theegala is so green. Henley doesn’t scare anybody. Finau and Burns can be solid, but they can also be inconsistent. Homa seems built for this. Solid international record. But outside our top 4-5 guys, it’s hit or miss. I’ll be dialed in this weekend in between football.

He's our 3rd best player right now imo. I feel like I'd rather have Koepka than a couple of these guys, too. Edited September 28, 20241 yr by ztejas
September 28, 20241 yr Zalatoris and Cam Young also looked like they were gonna be mainstays coming out of COVID too and that hasn’t happened.

I'm lucky to break 100 when I play and I can hit shots better than what they're hitting today. The international team played lights out, nice wake up call for our boys. I must say though, I wish Furyk had made you a captains pick. I’d love to have watched your 25 handicap ass try to squeak out a point.

September 28, 20241 yr 6 minutes ago, LTtxfan said: Wow this American team is underwhelming On paper, the Americans are a vastly superior team. All 12 are in the top 25 OWGR whereas the International’s have 4. This is a good team that’s underperforming.
