Being the captain for a US President's Cup team has got to be awesome. You can't screw it up. The top 4 on each team are very legit on both sides but then after that? Top 4 US = Spieth, Bubba, DJ, Rickie Top 4 International = Day, Adam Scott, Matsuyama, Louis Rest of the teams... US: Jimmy Walker, ZJ, Reed, Kuch, Kirk, J.B., Bill Haas, Phil International: Branden Grace, Leishman, Lahiri, Charl, Jaidee, Danny Lee, Bae, Bowditch There honestly isn't one International player off the 2nd grouping that I would take over any of the 2nd grouping US players.
yes and Leishman only has one PGA tour win but he's been in contention in majors and was in the playoff at the open this year. I'd take him over Haas and probably Kirk.
I wouldn't over Haas but I could potentially be talked into Leishman over JB. Still would probably take all tho
DJ/Spieth in foursomes is just unfair we would have fucked the europeans this year if it was a Ryder cup year.
Always love watching four-ball over foursomes, gonna be another late night for me Love all the USA pairings. Hate that Kuch gets stuck with Reed for his partner. I think Kuch and someone like Bubba would make a great pairing
Well the next one is only a year away. Things are definitely looking good for that one. Our young golfers under 24 yrs old >>>>>>>>>>>> Europe's. It will be very tough though if Rory, Rose, Stenson, and Sergio come in playing well.
I am pretty fortunate with Ryder Cup tickets....my brother-in-law's boss is not only a member of Hazeltine but lives on the course. He has assured me that I have a ticket and an invite to some private events that week along with him. I am just unsure if I am going to take the whole week off and attend with him or start on Thursday/Friday. It is going to be so much fun next year.
From what I could hear Phil used a different kind of ball then the one(s) he started with. Therefore he had to forfeit the rest of the hole. Plus they also lost a hole to go along with it. So essentially the Americans lost the 7th hole twice. No idea why the fuck he had two different types of balls in his bag.
Phil fucked up as he didn't have to forfeit, he could have played the hole out. The rule says you can finish the hole but the opponent gets a 1 point win additional to how the hole is finished. Dumb dumb rule.
