Yes, we were fucked before today's rounds started, but Hovland's "injury" dropped Europe's margin from 2.5 to 2. Yes, our captain sucks -- he's in WAY over his head -- and our players have played like utter dogshit, but let's not act like this is a sport where "injury" is common. If you can't play, you lose. That's the way every other individual sport works. Well....except that's not the way it works in the ryder cup and hasn't for almost 50 years. No one is faking an injury to guarantee half a point and not be out there. Especially hovland. And keegan is a fucking dolt for not knowing the rule. Edited September 28Sep 28 by pops

And for this pairing, I'm just glad to get a half point from a match the US otherwise would have probably lost.

September 28Sep 28 And going in, the injury rule probably favored us, since we've had more guys with major injury issues recently.
September 28Sep 28 Just now, dcar00 said: faster and harder greens might have helped the US. they still lose but europe loves the speed of these greens. Huh? Why does your citizenship determine what kind of green speeds you like?

September 28Sep 28 I don't see how faster greens, narrower fairways, and longer rough would have favored us any. Euros don't know how to play with irons and woods off the tee? We set the course up exactly how our bombers and all carry, zero rollout pin hunters wanted (American golf outside the U.S. Open, essentially), and we're still getting smoked.
September 28Sep 28 it is interesting that europe has crushed the front 9 and it has been even on the back.

Europe hasnt needed to win holes on the back. Mcginley mentioned their data showed how important it was to be up after 6 holes and that was a huge focus for them. Keegan just wants to talk about the patriots and kicking fucking asses. I think donald had the better approach.
September 28Sep 28 Does the US golf heirarchy ever work to put a current captain in talks with previously successful captains? It seems like our "strategy" was fucked out of the gate. Not that we had the talent to win, but this is so bad, and two Ryder Cups in a row. We're playing checkers and they're playing chess.

Europe was the better team but the rain changed the course conditions to help europe some. we don't really have a ton of big bombers this isn't 2021 team. again, Europe still wins, they were the better team coming in no doubt, because we suck at putting(water is wet) and our iron play has been sketchy.

I think donald had the better approach. I'm not getting caught up in the captain thing. if keegan bradley is the captain for euros he's winning probalby just the same. It's 90% Jimmy's and Joe's in this thing. I blame him for the Morikawa/English idiocy but that is it. everyone wants to talk about the captains. we suck at putting and choke in this deal 100 yards in more often than not for 25 years and it has nothing to do with the captain.
September 28Sep 28 Jt getting all fired up is like a safety giving up a 50 yard pass and tackling the guy at the 1 yard line and getting up and giving the throat slash.

I think donald had the better approach. Exactly. People want to ignore data and just act like they made more putts but they had a plan they worked on since Rome and it worked. They didn’t just do pairings by feel and vibes. They knew which guys complimented the others game and stuck with it.

Can't blame him really bc he's been playing great, but not focused solely on the RC like Luke Donald. Not making excuses for Keegan's captaincy decisions, just thinking it is probably better to have a captain who does nothing else (mostly) during his tenure.

September 28Sep 28 LMAO at the crowd coming to life because we're up 4-2. I mean, I get it, but . . .
