Ryder Cup, The Musical.

 

Get your tickets now!

 

 

Ryan Fellansian from the Cleveland Press:

The unclassifiable supernatural omnibus classic includes a neurotically unforgettable performance by both Europe and the USA.

 

Benton Raycroft from Utica Times: 

If you care about real theater and you’ve never seen Ryder Cup, The Musical you don’t really know yet what it is you care about.

 

Raymond "Stew" Pennington from the Philadelphia Reporters:

Golf, marital infidelity, egomaniacal actors, and inept totalitarian commentators all conspire to produce a glorious and absurd competition for TV viewers abroad.

 

 

 

 

REally?  You had to drag Utica into this?

Does anyone actually think the US is gonna win? This looks to me like a dramatically bad line that is inflated by owgr's and actively ignoring injuries and chemistry. All the US has going for it is home field.

The lineups are fairly balanced and then suddenly there's Jon Rahm, who is basically the Earth's space jam golfer right now.

At worst I think it should be even stevens. Anybody else?

The Ryder Cup betting line was essentially the same for 2014, 2016, 2018. I guess Team USA as the heavy favorite is what it takes to bring bets/money to both sides. * bookmakers try to get money wagered on both sides as equally as possible.

I put $10 on Europe to win (to make $22) and $5 on a tie (to make $55). Just enough to keep me interested.

Guy is not impressed:

 

 “The landing areas when you get out 320-330 yards off the tee get pretty narrow.”

Shouldn’t worry him too much when it comes to foursomes at least 😂

Differences in the fist pump after a great putt at the Ryder Cup 

 

The Euro first pump characterized by either the arm locked at 90 degrees or the elbow and arm moving downward and toward the body, whereas the Americans tend to straighten the arm to a locked position and the the fist goes outward (like bombs bursting in air). 

 

 

USA will win.

I mean, listen: We talking about practice. Not a game. Not a game. Not a game. We talking about practice. Not a game. Not the game that I go out there and die for and play every game like it's my last. Not the game. We talking about practice, man.")

Le National is the best Ryder Cup venue imho. We will see Marco Simone… 🤞

I'm looking forward to Adare Manor in 2027. Giving me Augusta National vibes. Ireland/N. Ireland has some of the best courses in the world IMO. K Club, Adare Manor, and Portrush are all superb venues.

Is WS playing as an actual links or is a lakeside course with no trees?

 

The air isn't salty.

 

I don't know these guys but if you care much about using data to predict play or make choices they do some wonderful deep dives, just not super often.
