"So are we talking about it… or are we just saying golf is too elitist for the working man!!!
It’s the one golf tournament I can really get behind "
I’m a working man and love golf. Admittedly I only took it up after my knees were to bad for football and cricket. Love the Ryder Cup and the Solheim last weekend was epic |

Amen to that. After he had a proper rinsing on his debut last time out, that was some front 9, I’m well chuffed for the chap. |

Are they playing a different golf course?
I suppose they are when they seem to be playing it almost entirely from the rough stuff. Reminds me of my own golf, hacking at its best. |

"glass half full me" says this is brilliant ,,,, "glass half empty me" thinks The USA could be talking about their amazing recovery and winning The 2023 Ryder Cup for years to come ,,, ( Europe have just won 2 holes while I have been typing this message ,,, surely my glass is half full ) |

Best sporting event ever... Especially when we perform like we have done the last few days. Amazing shot making. And that 20 year old lad.... Great tv. Go Tommy. |

"I saw a news report that said there was booing.......and they blamed a football fan mentality.....shocking!"
They were booing brooks this morning after he called Jon rahm a spoilt child last night
I was saying to a friend last night “why is still poking the bears after they have already ripped off 1 limb!”…
.. and then he got another one ripped off this morning!
Reminds me of the Monty python movie when the knight says it’s merely a scratch!  |

Yeha can't stand booing... But its become that way. Hopefully they applaud good play for both sides too... Though usa are still on the plane at the moment. Not much you can do when Rahm scores 2 eagles in 3 holes though |

" 
I don’t recall ever seeing a so one sided opening few sessions from a Team Europe perspective. "
They broke Scottie, you can’t play anyone with brooks in a foursome… the fact you have to play Sam burns again shows how desperate it is, cantley in open revolt
They have literally broken the us team |

I think it's a mistake to drop Scottie. I know he looked absolutely broken after that round but he's world number 1 because of consistency. |

"Have u seen the story that the US team is split Cantlay and Zander are sulking coz they’re not getting paid to play. That’s why Cantlay won’t wear a team cap. Sour faced cunt he is"
Heard him say it doesn’t fit comfortably so that’s why he’s not wearing it, must have a massive head ! |

"Wasn’t there a to do in the car park yesterday between players? Almost fisticuffs? "
It was better the players as such.. it was between Rory and Cantlays caddy… which goes back to the antics on the 18th.. |

"If anyone seeing the score thinks that was an easy win , they weren't watching (or listening -as I was) an hour before the end "
Was following by text and could see how up and down it was. Figured USA would fight back but thankfully Europe held out |

It was quite nerve wracking, but we were never going to lose!

It was compelling viewing for sure .. looked tighter than the final score suggests.
But why do American golf fans insist on yelling “Get in the hole..” all of the time? It reminds me too much of my mission here on Fab! |

"It would be much better if it were called the Ride her cup, oh and if it had nothing to do with Golf! 
But you still win if you take fewer strokes right? "
Nooooh, the only strokers are those hitting their balls across the fields.... |

Next Ryder cup is at bethpage black ….. if you want obnoxious American golf fans.. that place is going to be full of the most unseemly Long Island people…
If there is ever a place where you could see a golf riot.. it will be bethpage black!!!

"Only one I like watching is the masters as I think the Augusta National golf course looks beautiful "
That’s members only….
The beauty of bethpage black is that it’s a public course, which means in theory anyone can hack their way around… |

I suppose it's a good way to get an idea of how good the pros actually are.
They are parring the course and me loosing about 40 ball's in the rough per round and ending up 70 over |
