[Archived] Ryder Cup 2010 Europe V Usa, Celtic Manor, Wales!

[USRoverME]

The biggest issue with the Ryder Cup for me, and there's no way around it really, is the start time.

The golf started at 4 am for me most of the weekend. That cuts out watching any of it.

Also, apparently, the way they set up the first tee has some American's in awe. Apparently the Euro fans were behaving well, but also like a football supporters section on the first tee. So of course, Woods is a wet blanket about the whole thing.

Potentially interesting article:

First Tee Report

Gotta like Europe's chances right now...

[Ozz]

Jimenez wins, leaving just Molinari and McD to win from their games-McD is a banker but I worry about the temperament of the Italian, maybe a bit flaky?

[T4E]

McDowell went 3UP but has just been pegged back to 2 again with 6 to play, its far from over. Molinari needs to hold on for us to have a chance, I think he will.

Fisher completely bottled it against Overton. Hope that doesn't prove as crucial as it might.

[T4E]

Mickleson 4UP with 4 to play, Zach 5UP with 5 to play, it's now effectively 13-13.

[USRoverME]

Wow, Rickie Fowler.

[T4E]

Tormented by R Fowler. Typical.

We're making a right hash of this now.

[BuckyRover]

Monty out!

[USRoverME]

Mahan now starting to give McDowell some butterflies.

Is it just me, or is that an odd pair for this cup to come down to???

[Ozz]

Got a horrendous vision of this going to end 13.5 each, and Yanks keeping the pot.

14 each I mean.

[T4E]

It would be 14-14 for a draw Oz.

Fowler just holed from 12ft on 18 to half his match with Molinari, from 3Dn with 3 to play. Unbelievable.

13 1/2 - 12 1/2. All on McDowell.

Edit: Johnson beats Harrington, 13 1/2 each now.

[USRoverME]

What a putt by Rickie, wow. Its all to Mahan and McDowell now.

[Presty On Tour]

13 1/2 all!

Does it get better than this in golf?

[T4E]

Denied the Ryder Cup by the kid from High School Musical. Gutted.

[USRoverME]

Not so fast... nice putt by McDowell, and now Mahan has to win the last 2 holes to halve the match and retain the cup for the USA. One tied or a holw won for McDowell, and the Euros win it.

[T4E]

Incredible putt.

[USRoverME]

Awful tee shot by Mahan, and a decent one from McDowell, and save for Mahan holing a chip, seems like the Euros will hold on...

[T4E]

He fluffed the chip completely, poor bloke.

[USRoverME]

Mahan follows the awful tee shot with an awful chip, and crumbles under the pressure. Game, set, match.

Its a shame, really, this course seemed designed for the cup to be decided on 18 in the last match, with everything to play for... THAT would have been something.

[T4E]

Europe win 14 1/2 - 13 1/2, made hard work of it in the end!

[Doaksie]

G MAC - awesome!

Well done Graeme. Done Northern Ireland and Europe proud.

Agony to watch ..... Fowler's comeback from 5 down for the US to all square was amazing and almost swung it in their favour.

Wonderful tournament.

Had a brilliant day just sitting in front of my TV. It was fantastic in HD.

[T4E]

Did anyone watch in 3D?

Did anyone watch in 3D?

Apparently Golf in 3D is the bees knees. Not seen it myself though
