The 2018 Ryder Cup at Le Golf National (MERGED)

[MyShortGameSucks]

rory just blocked a really bad shot off the 2nd.... he didn't make a single birdie in the morning.

 

I am looking forward to Bjorn’s justification for playing Rory again. I know he is a great player but he’s out of form an$ he was awful this morning. They are playing the weakest team on the US side and I still give Poulter/Rory little to no chance...

Poultie carrying rory this afternoon.

 

LOL... Poulter can join Olesen --- both with sore backs from carrying Rory :)

[Range Pro]

Tora. Tora. Tora. Down goes Tigger!

Rory blasts it 350 off the tee and is euro biggest star. People want to see him play and euro tour needs that cash.

I been up since 4am watching and that rory group this morning was really really bad. I was surprised when it was announced.

Stenson's looking cold with the putter today.

[MyShortGameSucks]

Stenson...sheez. This is getting uncomfortable. I may have to get my laptop out and do some work :)

Not only did Rory play poorly, but he looked disinterested. Reminded me of when Faldo partnered Gilford and barely spoke to him.

6:30 am mountain. Watching the first few holes of the afternoon round.

 

Love watching the Ryder version of Poulter.

[TServos]

it's probably been said lots but the lack of tracer on every shot is really a disservice

 

Yeah. Just turned the tv on and seeing the tee shot on #1 against a bright white sky. Don’t they do technology in France?

[NoodleSalad]

This course reminds me of TPC Sawgrass with all these railroad ties and water...

 

It's another in a long line of really terrible courses the Euro Tour has given us for this event.

You weren't alone. Eye-popping.

Hate him and respect him at the same time. Hate him because he is so stinking good in RC’s.

Dude gets savage in rc

[Konklifer]

The Phil/BD pairing will be feast or famine.

[Konklifer]

Fleetwood/Molinari looking like they could be the Euro stars this year.

[duffer987]

There is no us (us not US) vs them anymore.

There are just 24 professional golfers all playing the same game. I do think the European tour needs to stop thinking they need to make the course difficult for the Americans, as if there's a difference.

Everyone plays the same game now, this isn't Woosie and Faldo out there

Courses like this are more interesting than the putting competition we see every week on the PGA tour though

[No_Catchy_Nickname]

Nice putt there from Webb Simpson. He looks a lot more settled than 4 years ago.

[vjswing]

Okay, I did NOT see this coming from the Bubba-Webb pairing.

[imakaveli]

Rory go home please...

[jerebear21]

webb simpson been solid ever since he started using that cheating putter again. =P

Not like the US have hosted anywhere better in this millennium to be honest

[Konklifer]

Webb Simpson...the silent assassin.

[Golfer4Life]

Rory is playing like a turkey.

I actually like it. Forces you to hit golf shots. Rather than just hitting Driver all over the yard and then everyone putts.

 

Don’t miss the fw this week! Plenty of birdie to be had from fw. Generally screwed if you’re in the rough.

[KennyP]

Good grief Phil.

[HoffTTM]

Stenson...sheez. This is getting uncomfortable. I may have to get my laptop out and do some work :)

 

He is one of the worst putters on tour 170th or worse out of 190 odd. Funnily enough Frankie is even worse on the stats

 

Good grief Phil.

 

Why are you even playing if you are hitting an iron on a reachable par 5, might as well go hang out at Disneyland til Sunday

[MarkFromTheUK]

Shot Phil!

[OldTomMorris]

Iron off the tee on a par 5 for position and dumps it into a water hazard, not ideal to say the least.
