Yeah, Couples could be good.
Stricker won by what was a record margin, probably beaten this week. Maybe give him another run.
Of course that team was a juggernaut.

Is that the first special shot we've made all weekend
That Euro team also had a bunch of guys on their last legs- Westwood, Casey, Poulter, etc. It was primed for an ass beating
Also bears repeating, the US didn't come play the course beforehand. Europe did. Would we have won if we did? Probably not. But why can't you get everyone together and go play the course? Stuff like that is infuriating.
Yep, little did we know a lot of our guys were on their last leg too
Correct. This year the clear majority of Team Europe players were playing good or real good golf as Rose and Fleetwood both won recent playoff events. As for Team USA players at least half of them were playing below average golf or very inconsistent over the past 6 months. Guys like Morikawa, Xander, Cantlay and even JT have been inconsistent or below their usual play. Outside of Young, our rookies haven't been anything to shout about.
Not sure if you've heard, but part of Europe's strategy was to try to win the first six holes. Usually teams try to lose those holes so they can save their energy for the later holes.
Sure, but even a guy who has not played well this year like Lowry showed up this weekend for Europe. This crop of Americans just suck in this format at every level. The mental aspect the most. Very few guys on this team have balls.
Not playing the course much beforehand is a bad move.
Getting closely acclimated with the greens makes a difference in making vs missing putts in a critical moment.

Hat ton has been eye opening this week. I've never paid much attention to him, but he's quite the player.
The bottom 4 or 5 guys for Team Europe such as Fitzpatrick, Lowry, Straka, Aberg and Rasmus all were playing good overall. Hovland and Aberg have been inconsistent moreso.
Agree. I'm just saying we don't have any guys seemingly not in form playing above their current level.
They wanted a spa resort and playing on a golf course that had nothing to do with the Ryder Cup but making some money that week.
He's hilarious. Another guy I miss on the PGAT.
Bryson is currently getting waxed by Fitzpatrick.
Bryson is gassed and getting boat raced by Fitzpatrick.
Unless you watch LIV, you won't see him. He's a bit of a head case but a great player nonetheless
Europe +9.5 SG putting. Unreal
Fred Couples is lazy and doesn't want the headache.
+9.55 strokes gained on the greens by the Euros.
Edit: Beat me to it

Hatton is another top guy that just can't get over the hump in final rounds in majors
He's been getting beat all week
Guys iron game is so finicky

I remember Fitzpatrick being the worst golfer of everyone at Whistling Straits 4 years ago
He was 1-7 before Rome. Awful record

Phil won't be captain given a myriad of issues involving him and LIV
Politics over winning. The PGAT and all the BS is why we're in this boat. Players getting their buddies on the team last time instead of Keagen, not taking the best option for coach because it hurts their feelings.
Euros had no problem with LIV players leading their team.
There's a lot of reasons to criticize the US team but not leaning into LIV enough is the dumbest. The only LIV golfer who remotely deserved to be on this team is on it. And is currently getting his doors blown off for the 4th time.
The Euros took 1 more LIV guy than us. Because he was actually better than the other options.

Regarding Phil for captain as I said in the post.
His swagger is exactly what is needed and they'll never consider it.

Phil has a very polarizing personality and not sure alot of PGA pros (millionaires) want to follow him. I think we should choose someone else like Leonard, Duval or Zinger

Swagger is the last thing we need
Phil would be a lot like Watson was. Think he can just walk in and win because he is who he is.
Before we figure out our next captain, we need to organize a backroom. The Euro captain just seems to be a new face for the same organization every cup.

I think we should do what US basketball did for the Olympics; make a dedicated captain for a time period more than one season. Let Zinger be the captain for the next 2 Ryder Cups.

Agree, but Zinger isn't the guy
