I can't usually stand watching golf. I find the last bit of the 4 days to be the best. Even then it doesn't always thrill me.

The Ryder Cup is different.

I detest American golf fans.

It's Europe v USA. I just watched the first game tee off and it was buzzing.

You don't have to enjoy golf to get involved in this.

I've got loads of sports on this weekend but I'll be watching as much of this as I can. I love The Ryder Cup.

It must feel like Christmas Day to genuine golf fans.

I've watched them all since I was a kid and I've never heard a crowd like this. Certainly not when it's been in Europe.

The noise gets better each time it's held. This time they have 6000 fans behind the first tee

I wish the USA were all dressed the same and both teams looked different.

I don't follow golf but know who a few are.

I keep getting a buzz over a missed putt or shit drive just to find one of our boys took the shot.

Is it just me watching it?

USA ended up 3-1 after this morning.

Europe currently leading 4-0.

It's got all the makings for a fantastic few days.

I don't play golf, I can't stand it if I'm honest but can play okay.

So I'd so much prefer to be watching the shots but these guys must strive on pressure.

I know it's only a few days but for me it's up there with sports greatest competitions.

World cups, The Ashes, 3rd round FA Cup, 6 Nations and so on.

I put the Olympics and Commonwealth games in a different bracket as they are multi sports.

I know Sunday is single rounds but what is tomorrow?

The ones who run to make a line for a shot out the rough are taking a pretty big risk in my eyes

I use a heavier stick and a bigger ball for my sport.

It's a great way of letting off steam.

No shirt, hat etc sponsors.

No prize money.

You take all that away and yet the competition is greater I think.

It means more as you rightly pointed out.

Exactly ! This is where you see real sportsmen playing for the love of the game compare this to many footballers that play for their paycheck and don’t give 100%

I was out for most of yesterday. Checked the score and the lead had been cut to two points.

I needn't of worried though. I watched BBC2 highlights last night and it looked like an amazing last day, some really brave golf.

Just as shame it ended on a tee not a green but I think we can accept that.

Well done Europe, I can't stand American golf fans not that they are all picks.

I love sport when it's respectful and fair play to Fuyrk (sp) and his team being very gracious in defeat. That's how it should be, Well Done to them

I'm glad it's not every year, it wouldn't be anywhere near as good.

This is probably the same lady that has gone on to loose the sight in one eye.

She's going to sue the golfer or the Ryde cup I don't know.

Few reasons why even the golfer not shouting 'fore'. It's tragic indeed but I don't think your entitled to compensation if you want to go and look down the barrel of a golf club.
