September 27, 20187 yr Thoughts: Lefty not playing in 4 ball. Might not even play tomorrow. Bjorn put a rookie on every team. I like the U.S. in matches 3 and 4. Europe in match 1 and see match 2 as a push
September 27, 20187 yr 17 hours ago, Stu said: Spieth and Reed will play together. They're already tied for the most points by a US team in Ryder Cup history. May split them for a session, but they're playing together.. They don't get along.. never really have.. it's why they are so good together. Internally, they are trying to beat the shit out of each other. Well for 1st Session..... No Reed & Spieth pairing....

Lefty might play 4Ball on Saturday.... Winning Match #1 would be huge for US Team....... Edited September 27, 20187 yr by LTtxfan
September 27, 20187 yr Sitting for Session 1 USA: Bubba, Webb, Phil and Bryson Euro: Poulter, Noren, Garcia and Stenson The U.S. picks aren't too surprising but no Noren or particularly Poulter is a gift to the USA imo. Match 1 is going to be a battle, but USA should be the favorite in 2, 3 and 4. Anything less than 2.5 - 1.5 lead for the US will be a disappointment.

Based on recent history of Ryder Cups in Europe, 2.0 to 2.0 is not a bad start for USA..... Eventhough many golf experts say the U.S. has much better players, for Matchplay purposes these seem like pretty even Teams Edited September 27, 20187 yr by LTtxfan
September 27, 20187 yr 2-2 would match the USA's worst performance in the Friday morning session from the last 5 Ryder Cups (2012).
September 27, 20187 yr Phil/Bryson and Webb/Bubba will play afternoon sessions tomorrow. Furyk didn't call me or anything, but I'd say that's a pretty good bet.
September 27, 20187 yr The Friday and Saturday results from the last 5 Ryder Cups are as follows: Friday Foursomes 12.0 - 8.0 USA Friday Fourball 11.5 - 8.5 USA Total Saturday 23.5 - 16.5 USA Saturday Foursomes 12.5 - 7.5 EUR Saturday Fourball 10.5 - 9.5 USA Total Saturday 22 - 18 EUR Total Friday and Saturday 41.5 - 38.5 USA On the other hand, the US has lost 5 of the last 6 Fridays and Saturdays in the last 3 Ryder Cups in Europe (Won 2010 Friday 5-3).

I thought morning session was foursomes. Both Friday and Saturday Afternoon results in 2014 for foursomes were... Europe 3.5.... USA 0.5 Those Two Sessions in Europe killed USA in 2014 ....

September 27, 20187 yr Phil/Bryson and Webb/Bubba will play afternoon sessions tomorrow. Furyk didn't call me or anything, but I'd say that's a pretty good bet. I don’t know about Phil playing in the afternoon foursomes. His wildness off the tee makes him very dicey in that format. That’s why I was very surprised he wasn’t playing in the morning fourballs.

September 27, 20187 yr I'd better get a nap, so as I can watch me some early, early morning Ryder Cup Team

September 28, 20187 yr I’ll let it play out but I don’t understand the opening pairing by Furyk. If it were me, Reed and Woods are setting the tone.
September 28, 20187 yr Bryson isn't playing because he's too busy banging his new girl. Lordy those toys would be lovely. Go USA! Who is staying up tonight?

September 28, 20187 yr I’ll let it play out but I don’t understand the opening pairing by Furyk. If it were me, Reed and Woods are setting the tone. I have a feeling reed and woods are going to get beat
September 28, 20187 yr Those two carry a fear factor, imo. Woods recent win sent a message, he can still intimidate and it just so happens two of Europe’s best saw it first hand. Then there’s Captain America who is annoying as fuck. Whose game elevated in this setting to get under your skin. Just so happens he would’ve seen Rahm, that mental midget versus Reed’s “antics” make me laugh. But oh well, we will see if the two quiet guys can silence the crowd with their ballstriking.
September 28, 20187 yr Man I’m trying to hang on and not fall asleep. Need to see them all go off in first at least. Love this event so hard
September 28, 20187 yr The French are slow to fill that big ass grand stand. The whole left side is basically empty.
September 28, 20187 yr I'm Up..... Making Coffee. Ryder Cup one of Best Sporting Events Ever.... USA.......USA......USA
September 28, 20187 yr Fyi....Besides Golf Channel TV Coverage, on Roku there's also a free Ryder Cup app that I think is the RyderCup.com TV feed for folks that don't have access to Golf Channel. Running 2 TVs so I can see both....🤣 Edited September 28, 20187 yr by LTtxfan

And not just because of the strength of the pairing. The crowd itself would almost assuredly break up to see Woods, taking a certain amount of pressure off of the other groups who could play with some anonymity while in their shadow. Getting to holes 7,8,9 without getting behind would favor the US.
September 28, 20187 yr Looks like the Roku stream will only be following the “feature matchup” live (with occasional recaps of the other matchups), but I’ll take what I can get and follow the other matchups here.
September 28, 20187 yr I don’t know what is or isn’t shown using the app, so I’ll throw some updates on the other three matches as I can.
September 28, 20187 yr So we are going to see every damn shot of tigers group and one shot from one of the other groups? This is BS, there are only four groups on the course
September 28, 20187 yr All square in the Fowler match. Edited September 28, 20187 yr by Constant Whoops

Beggars can’t be choosers, though, I suppose. Tiger! Time to get that shot back Edited September 28, 20187 yr by Stinkpalm

September 28, 20187 yr Match #1 Europe.... Up 1 Match #2...... All Square Match #3..... USA ....UP 1 Match#4....Europe....Up 1 Edited September 28, 20187 yr by LTtxfan
September 28, 20187 yr Author We didn’t see any tee shots on the second hole until the fourth group. That’s inexcusable. Koepka needs to make a putt.
September 28, 20187 yr Yep. It’s the Tiger show with the occasional sprinkling of shots from the other 3 groups. And a heavy downpour of commercials

Looks like they aren’t going to do much in the way of informing the Roku streamers what’s happening in the other matches or giving live scoring updates
