    Good scoring conditions seem to be around again today judging by the early starters.

    From overnight leader to 6 off the pace. Horror show but not surprising.

    Why is it that people can't resist having a dig at Padraig? Drives me mad. :mad:

    He went from overnight leader to 6 off the pace. That is a fact.

    "McIlroy, no wonder he can't get the ball in the hole because he was whacking tennis balls up the tunnel of the stadium"

    Some would say that is a metaphor for lobbing it into Wozniacki.

    It's not surprising. He has plenty of previous in this situation this season.

    Put the green jersey down and watch a bit more golf.

    Yes, I heard that and I wondered if it was intended as a double entendre.

    Nice to see Watney playing so well, a guy I like to watch. He'll take the lead in to the weekend.

    Garcia continuing his good form and Woods and Johnson just a few shots back. A good weekend ahead.

    All the better for you I suppose because Harrington dropped a few shots.

    yes maybe that, but it is not too often we have no tricolour on the team. i'm being genuine . it is a weak inexperienced team . we need paddy in the locker room . without him we will lose . but at this stage who cares about Europe .

    Donald, Westwood, McIlroy top 5 in the world. Gmac, Lawrie, Kaymer all major winners

    Haven't even got to Rose and Garcia, Molinari

    A right old bunch of weak inexperienced

    So 4 major winners in the team. Paul, won his in 1999 - one of the other Kaymer is in poor form. Gmac and Rory class for this. But would you put them together ? or with a weaker partner.

    Have a look at the major winners on US team and come back to me. You have made up your mind , but look at US team.

    It is a joke Padraig not going IMO . He has more majors than the team Captain.

    I think US will win this (easy) - that is my view. We all have our views about sport.

    Agree,that has to be one of the stupidest comments posted here in a while,so with PH we will win,pure speculative BS,I think Colsaerts will be a really big player esp in the foursomes given his huge length off the tee.

    Wtf,the Ryder cup this year imo is a real 50/50,PH being picked isn't going to change that.
    So the answer your Q ,yes, regardless of the result your comment is still speculative BS.

    so if it is 50/50 one thing makes it 49 % 51 %.

    Anyway - we all have our ideas. If it is 50/50 toss a coin, have no captain. you will never win by more than 1/2 a point - not the case.

    Why do people always equate inexperience with weakness? Has anyone got a statistic to show that rookies play considerably worse than seasoned Ryder cuppers?
