Ro Sham Bo Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 Ryan Moore gets the final pick although the news is overshadowed by the death of Arnold Palmer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted September 26, 2016 Author Share Posted September 26, 2016 Sad news about Arnie, doubtful if golf would ever have got where it has without him, Nicklaus and Player. Moore was excellent yesterday, holed some big putts under pressure. I wonder if Love felt compelled to pick the best performer at the Tour Championship after changing the rules, he was making comments yesterday about how it's not ideal to be making the last pick so late.

Broony88 Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 I think Europe have a great chance here, yes the yanks are better on paper but they don't have the fight we do. A little bit worried about the amount of rookies we have on the team but a good Friday will settle them all down. 15.5-12.5 Europe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was watching the 2002 highlights earlier and team wise there are a lot of similarities to this year. The Yanks looked much stronger with 4 rookies in the European team in Fulke, Fasth, McGinley and Price, and 3 others who had only played in one previous Ryder Cup. Europe won that one 15.5-12.5.

Danny was already under massive pressure having done very little since he won the Masters, he's now going to have the Yank crowd on his back too.

Leicesterlichtie Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 Really looking forward to this, the pinnacle of golf. Hard to see past yanks winning the Ryder Cup back but strange things can happen. Think Europe have to get a good solid start on day 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
