Funking for halved matches in the 4balls prrreeettttyyy hard.

Not as hard as me.

Sandy

I went for the halved matches in foursomes as I felt that they were far more likely in that format.

I don't have any statistical evidence to back up my gut feeling but if anyone actually does have some stats to hand that will either prove or disprove my theorem I would appreciate the input.

the stats say fourballs are better, but the market says nothing between them.

Over the last few Ryder Cups 40% of holes were scored on in 4balls Vs 52% in 4somes.

But our betting has nothing to do with whom we are funking for in a nationalistic sense.

The way Europe are playing we're generally hoping for European comebacks down the stretch around the turn.

I guess that makes me and my gut a poisson even if slightly unlucky to go 0/8. Sad

we just look like were really lacking that buzz that weve had over the last 15 years, i dont even think weve had it the last 2 ryder cups, think as players begin to play multiple ryder cups, they maybe become scared to look too excited on camera, whereas when your a rookie, you pretty much have nothing to lose so you dont mind showing that bit of enthusiasm. and with some of our players, i just think they play better when theyre pumped!!

do you mean scored = won/lost

this is ties from sessions of the last 9 or 10 cups

some   1   0   2   1   3   1   0   0   0   0   1   0   0   1   0   0   0   0
 balls   1   1   1   2   1   1   1   1   2   1   1   2   0   1   0   0   1   0

Butch Harmon's cloyingly false support in commentary for the Euro's is making me puke.

No, hole by hole. Ie. what % of holes played produced a positive outcome (EUR/US scoring a point).

but a halved match will go to 18 holes and a won match will more often than not have less than 18, so a bit of a dodgy stat imo

Surely those who cloy could form a cloyster?
