Ryder Cup '08

Nothing on this? Shocking!

Not a good day for Europe, but Forest fan Westwood pulled back a vital half point when the Yanks choke on the 18th of the last fourball!

Not a good start is a understatement

I actually don t think the players are playing for faldo in the same way they did for woosnam , Torrance, Gallacher, Seve etc

Even after day one this looks a tall order as the yanks are normally very strong on singles day .

They have suprised me with their fighting spirit on the first day and 3 points may not seem a lot but if this runs the same course on saturday now minus Westwood and Sergio (another dumb move by Faldo) then this is truely over .

Well done U.S. of A

Dropping Westwood and Garcia was idiocy at it's highest.

Proved to be the right decision. Harrington was the only loss this morning and no-one would have dropped him.

Westwood and Garcia are now refreshed and have to go out and get their first wins of the Cup. Garcia has not been on his game.
Worth noting Garcia has been on antibiotics and is not 100%.

I am surprised to see Rose and Wilson not playing this PM but then I like the look of the match-ups.

If we can end at 8.5 - 7.5 down then we'll be back in it.

The best team won, the yanks holed their putts we didn t

The cup was won on saturday I felt.

I feel the only reason westwood lost his singles match was due to hearing on the course the USA had already got their 14.5 points total meaning his performance was meaningless , shame really was hoping his and Patraigs games would be crucial
