Clarke played with Pieters on the final day a few weeks ago to watch him.

Pieters shot a 63 to win as far as I remember.
He was a dead cert then.

Picking Westwood over Knox or the likes was a shocker

+1

Except for he played with him the first two days not the final day (which is I'm sure what you meant)

He could have easily picked know over Westwood.

Pathetic stuff from Danny Willett

I think Clarke is wort captain since Faldo

We lost maybe 4/5 points over darren

But - we were never going to win away with a poor european team and a very divisive captain - even the whole way him and McGinley panned out as friends, says it all.

Interesting what and who gets job next.

Jesus - I couldn't handle Bjorn - like they are looking for the grumpy old men of the European tour.

I never imagined I'd say this - But Jimenez deserves job after this and the alternative.

Anyway, Westwood is now 2 up.

Who's Luke Donald again?

Never heard of him, what's his short game like?

our tail needs to start wagging

Willet has had shocking week.

Feel bad for him with all the unnecessary brother stuff he had to deal with

Keano · 02-10-2016 08:35PM

Really feel for Willett. Horrible week

Seve OB · 02-10-2016 08:35PM

In fairness, apart from Willey, all the matches have been pretty tight, 2 holes is nothing in matchplay

He wasn't obvious. Clarke could've easily picked Russell Knox (in good form), or one of his old hands Luke Donald.

Hindsight is great, but Pieters wasn't nailed on.

And sorry...I got mixed up on Rafa.

Luke Donald was never an option, he's been poor for years now bar the occasional top 10 showing.
