peasy23 Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 Europe take a 2 shot lead onto the final day singles in the Solheim Cup. 5 points needed to retain the cup. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Distant Doonhamer Posted September 6, 2021 Share Posted September 6, 2021 Really enjoyed watching the Solheim Cup so far. Have to say there is something a bit dull about the FedEx final stuff. Not sure how they make it a better watch though. The golf is really high quality but it’s a tournament where unless there is some really bizarre stuff very few of field have any chance of winning right from the outset. In contrast the Solheim Cup has been a brilliant watch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlipperyP Posted September 6, 2021 Share Posted September 6, 2021 Gripping stuff last night. Never got to bed until 05:00, kept on saying I'll give it one more hole, ended up staying up and watching it all. Think I'll have few hours before tee offs tonight. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In contrast the Solheim Cup has been a brilliant watch. Makes bringing the 30 best players from the season together completely pointless. Waiting for Cantlay to miss a shot in this form was mildly more entertaining than watching paint dry. Must be a better way of doing things. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In contrast the Solheim Cup has been a brilliant watch. Biggest problem now is that the majority of the field have no chance of winning right from the start. The guys starting on level or minus one could have hit 4 x 66s and still been miles short of the leaders. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted September 6, 2021 Share Posted September 6, 2021 Also worth adding that Cantlay only won the memorial after Rahm had to withdraw, and Rahm actually shot a lower score over the 4 rounds this weekend. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted September 6, 2021 Share Posted September 6, 2021 14 Scots in the field for this week's BMW PGA Championship at Wentworth. In the Ryder Cup standings Garcia leapfrogged both Wiesberger and Perez to move into the spot just below automatic qualifying. Fleetwood also moved up a couple of spots on the world list, but he is already locked in on the Euro points list. Lowry the man with most to lose at Wentworth. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peasy23 Posted September 6, 2021 Share Posted September 6, 2021 Can’t see Bob or Dundee Victor making it automatically Not even sure if a win this week would be enough either points wise or to convince Harrington to pick them. I'm 99% sure that Garcia, Poulter and Stenson get the wildcards, unless Lowry drops out of the automatic spots then he gets the nod ahead of Stenson imo. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slacker Posted September 6, 2021 Share Posted September 6, 2021 I think he picks Rose instead of Stenson. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wee-Bey Posted September 6, 2021 Share Posted September 6, 2021 I wouldn't be picking Stenson either tbh. Rose will get it, but I'd probably give serious consideration to Noren as the last pick. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bring Back Paddy Flannery Posted September 6, 2021 Share Posted September 6, 2021 What a rabble at this Solheim cup. Players putting on the first green to the background noise of what sounds like the local carnival. Scream if you wanna go fasterrrr. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ro Sham Bo Posted September 6, 2021 Share Posted September 6, 2021 Struggling to listen to those crowds. Turned it off for now and when I watch later it's going to be with the sound muted. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MP_MFC Posted September 6, 2021 Share Posted September 6, 2021 Re the tour championship, the handicapping really does make it pretty much a non event. I guess for tv purposes they wouldn’t do it but surely a seeded match play format is the fairest way if they want to do it, if they still want to have the build up tournaments start with 128 then to 64 then a final 32. If you want to give people a hole of or two of a start based on their season rankings then fair enough. Someone will no doubt tell me why they won’t or can’t do it but it would surely make more sense, nothing quite beats the drama of a match play situation (which Rahm vs Cantlay was ultimately over the last few holes). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for knocking down the misogynistic door, so I can post this. Female American sports fans are infinitely worse than any other sports fans, including OF fans. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
