2019 Presidents Cup - US wins, 16-14; G'day, mate, & Merry Christmas

[pheenomz4774]

Conspiracy theory me thinks Tiger is throwing Reed out there to get pummeled so they can have a track record or recent poor performance and nobody blinks when they don't pick him next year for the Ryder cup. Mostly because nobody wants to play with him or have him around. Has the guy won a team match without Spieth yet?

[MountainGoat]

The US team appears clueless on these greens.

Epic choke on that hole by Finau & Kuchar.

[2putttom]

gawd damn red lululemon trousers are a jinx !

[Darth Putter]

He is 0-5 in the Presidents Cup without Spieth, 0-2 in the Ryder Cup

 

He's 11-2-4 in all other matches

[toddnt]

Is the Fat Lady tuning up?

[jmck]

He’s running DJ and Woodland out there together again?

Is Tiger trying to lose this thing?

[Moo]

Tiger's afternoon picks are perplexing, in large because he didn't take his best player...an old bald dood named Tiger.

Bizarre.

[redfirebird08]

Wow, Thomas with Fowler instead of Tiger for the afternoon match. Wonder if Tiger sitting to rest his back.

[MountainGoat]

Brawny Bryson benched all day.

[jmck]

Yeah, wow.

He’s definitely trying to throw this thing.

[stingerfade]

weird since rickie and JT are known as two of the fastest players.

I honestly don't understand how anyone can watch this without a DVR. Let it run for an hour, take five minutes to watch the shots while FFing through the rest, repeat.

Late last night, I turned on "Live From the President's Cup" to watch while I was working in my garage. Believe it or not, it was even worse. In the 15+ minutes I had it on, they had about five minutes of commercials, followed by a one-minute segment where they showed some stat for 30 seconds AND THEN READ A PITCH FOR GOLF PASS for 30 seconds, and then cut away for five more minutes of commercials, and then another one minute of "coverage" that was half live commercial, and then more canned commercials. At that point, I gave up and switched over to Colbert.

[jmck]

Perfect camera angle for that putt. That was cool.

[2putttom]

Big Break is playing well

[redfirebird08]

 

And benching himself. Seems to be waiving the white flag. But I am glad if he's looking out for his health. That is way more important than getting 1 point in this silly event.

Tiger's back is hurting again. No other explanation for him not to play either session today.

[tacklingdummy]

Ryder Cup seems to get way more ratings and more hype than President's Cup. It is like the NFL vs Arena Football.

Tony!!!!

[ebrasmus21]

How do we feel about a potential pairing of JT and Finau?

[redfirebird08]

 

That's perfect, haha. At least 7-8 of his teammates completely failed to show up this week. No sense in him pushing his body if there is soreness. Reason to believe that he does have some soreness at this point. 4 rounds of tournament golf last weekend followed by a 25 hour plane ride and 2 more rounds of tournament golf

[No_Catchy_Nickname]

Can America salvage a half here? Two good looks at birdie versus one, plus Finau should be able to learn something from Scott's.

/watching on the shot tracker

[2putttom]

I'll take it with odd's, it's solid.

[ebrasmus21]

I’d like to see Tiger mix things up a touch on the pairings.

very nice battle by Cheapo and Finau

[TheMoneyShot]

Tiger is going to break the tie with Phil tomorrow. That’s the only thing interesting about this cup...

[2putttom]

looks to me that an underlying philosophy is you guys gotta work it out, my words won't win this cup

[redfirebird08]

Well there we go from Ernie. "Cold morning and Tiger looked stiff walking around."

[bladehunter]

I thought the same. His dad must have been a world traveler.
