Title: Ryder Cup Hype!
Post by: verndog158 on September 25, 2014, 03:58:51 PM
Havent seen a thread here yet, so got to get one going for the Ryder Cup.

USA or Europe? Scores? Pairings?

Personally id send Gallagher and Poulter out first. Only Scot out there on the first tee, with the most pumped up player in the side. Would be a great way to get on top of the Yanks.

What else do we think??

Could be Absolutle recipe for disaster, sending out a rookie scot who will be the most nervous person there with somebody in the about the worst form out of the 24.

Think he'll go safe and send out rory and sergio together followed by mcdowell and westy followed by kaymer and stenson then I think he'll go for gallagher and rose.

rory/sergio out first...try to get 1-0 up and send the message

stenson/kaymer

Rose/Poulter

McDowell/Westwood


get the rookies out in the fourballs, possibly swing Duboisson out there with another rookie and tell them to blast away for birdies

I agree it could tits up, but Poulter has always risen to the occasion, so I dont see his form being an issue. Plus, the scot might be up for it too. Think he will go safe, but would be a great way to get the crowd pumping!

I dont think getting the crowd going mental is essential to be honest. I kinda cringe a little sometimes when I hear woop wooping on a golf course, certainly in europe! The most electric iv ever felt with a crowd was Clarkey in 06, the genuine respect and love from the crowd fired me and everyone else right up a lot more than bubba lifting his arms then spanking his t shot 40 yards right.

There are only two nailed-on pairings for me, Poulter/Rose and Sergio/Rory.

Lot's of other possible permutations.

Rose & Stenson lead the charge.

Can't wait, planning to watch every ball, <3 the Ryder Cup.

Ryder Cup starts about two hours after tonights nfl ends and I have an 18 month old daughter so I am not getting any sleep during the day...I am going to be so tired after this weekend is done but I am not missing a ball either!!!

not surprised they put poulter with gallagher at all!

The highlights from 2 years ago were on bbc 2 earlier. Jesus, I forgot how good it was! I couldn't help but celebrate when Rose sunk that monster putt on the 17th to pull it back to all square!

C'MON EUROPE!

Not sure if anyone's mentioned this anywhere, yet, but Ian Poulter loves the Ryder Cup.

Setting the line on that being said this weekend at a million.

Have backed the other lot because I believe it's momentum oriented and I just don't buy that the USA win only once in three. Mug puntistry at its finest.

Nevertheless, hope Europe win to nil.

I actually like the idea for the first lot of 4-balls but I do think that will be it.

Are you saying that Poults is in the worst form of all 24 players?

What exactly made you draw that conclusion?

Decided to watch this one on TV (learnt from getting soaked in South Wales in October) hard to believe Medinah was 2 years ago, what a buzz that was, will never forget myself and James Mitchell sprinting from 15th green to 18th green once Molinari/Woods came through.

Taken every bet you can imagine, need Europe to crush.

Don't know exactly but i assume hes the lowest ranked player in the world playing?

Post by: buzzharvey22 on September 26, 2014, 09:05:02 AM
I do apologise, lee westwood is ranked lower than Poulter.

When was the last time Poulter competed for a major/wgc/sunday sweep at his local club.?

Great start for the lads, especially that bunker shot by Sergio!


Title: Re: Ryder Cup Hype!
Post by: baldock92 on September 26, 2014, 02:09:28 PM
Wow, i'm stunned Europe haven't come away with the win from the morning fourballs. 2 of the pairings bottled the 18th.


Title: Re: Ryder Cup Hype!

Not really sure how we lost that session :(

Get them back this afternoon.

Watched as much of the fourballs as i could and all of the foursomes. Rory and Sergio were shocking, as was Rickie Fowler. Wonder if they are suffering from sheer burnout after a very heavy schedule since the Open.

Can only see Europe getting stronger to be honest. Can't decide what time to start drinking tomorrow :-) 


Title: Re: Ryder Cup Hype!
Post by: buzzharvey22 on September 26, 2014, 09:45:02 PM
Hes gave everybody a game, don't worry about leaving people out til Sunday. Go with the strongest 8 you can put out. Im going:

Rose Stenson
Westy Kaymer
VD/Bjorn Donaldson
Sergio Rory


Title: Re: Ryder Cup Hype!
Post by: buzzharvey22 on September 26, 2014, 10:02:15 PM
Justin Rose & Henrik Stenson v Bubba Watson & Patrick Reed
Jamie Donaldson & Lee Westwood v Jim Furyk & Hunter Mahan
Thomas Bjorn & Martin Kaymer v Patrick Reed & Jordan Spieth
Rory McIlroy & Ian Poulter v Jimmy Walker & Rickie Fowler

Paddy Reed was impressive but to play in two games will be some going.

btw McGinley seems to me like a weak captain, with his strategy based around giving everyone a game.

I tend to agree with you but also pretty sure he benched Poults for Kaymer in the 4somes, so not too rigid.

Stealing this last point for a b/e session would be huge, USA played very good in this session.

CMON RORY/POULTS!


Title: Re: Ryder Cup Hype!

Will take that I guess.

Time for Rory to get a win this afternoon.

Never would have chosen Jamie Donaldson as the one to win it for us! Great weekend of golf from Europe.

Rose or G Mac (in that order) get my vote for player of the tournament

Rose was the man, was superb. But its always nice to play with a partner like Stenson.

Rory did will to get 2.5 points as his partners were horrendous all weekend and was playing against 3 men at times.

Bloody love the Ryder Cup.

Who do we think for next captain? Harrington?

Jiminez would be the comical choice for captain, bloody love him. Never saw him without a cigar this weekend. Talk about living the dream.

I think Darren Clarke will get it soon enough.
