Rory was carried by Fleetwood, and in all past Ryder Cups by Sergio etc. He is way over hyped, and now He claims the Ryder Cup is All that matters to him. Look up the old interviews of Rory & his feelings or respect for the Ryder Cup / non existent, he was only interested in Jack/Tigers record. I wonder how that's going for him , all the money & plaudits but No Substance. Yet He is the chosen One by the powers that Be, and the golf journalists will kiss his A– , to keep their jobs. Laughable, for those of us who have followed golf for over 50 years.
Haven’t got a clue about anything you are saying, one oh and two, is this morse code
Did you watch any of the competition?
“Do not recommend channel” 😂
Lowry was acting like he was the main guy for Europe… embarrassing how he was going on… wouldn't pick him again unless playing really well
Hovland..rahm..hatton.. McIlroy.. Fleetwood…these 5 are the core of the European team for next 10yrs or so…i dont think usa have that!! Scottie..Brooks..maybe homa cantlay but thats it and not as strong
After his comments on Lacava I won't be coming here anymore.

Rahm was better player than Hatton in this Ryder, and wasn't even close. Jon carried Tyrrell during their two foursomes, clearly. And dont get me wrong, Hatton was great this weekend. Hell of a Ryder player for sure. But Jon Rahm was special. So many big shots in clutch moments, eagle, par 3 first shot at 10 feet from the flag, eagle to finished 16, 17 and 18 on saturday was something else.
Aberg got his 2 points because of Hovland. Aberg was ranked the 17 best out of 24 players in strokes gained. Hovland was ranked #1.
Rose deserves a better grade, he was phenomenal through and through. In fact his match against Cantlay was criminally underlooked, I found it to be the best of the singles session. These two men holed putt after putt as if it was nothing.
Rose has to be higher
They all get A minimum as they thrashed the US
They all get an A+ from Me 👍🏼
Team America in costumes one team playing in USA gear the other in team Europe!
well as usual you put rory at the top he was matched with two top players in the dubbles who both carried him and with a not so good player in the singles so how he gets top marks god knows if he had been put with a rooky or say against cantly in the singles he would not have scored a point so you talk bollocks or who tels you what to say does
Regarding Team USA, the results may have been quite different if the team included DJ, DeChambeau, Reed & Talor Gooch all of whom may have been better equipped (mentally) to play in Europe!
Fitzpatrick needed an F.
im pretty sure that if he kicks on Rob McIntyre will be the next postman, he refuses to be beaten, great Tournament for the so called lowest ranked player, and brilliantly mentored by Rose, genius that Luke saw pairings where no on else could and they worked, the damage was done in the first 3 sessions
It was funny when after Rose and McIntyre won their match and finished their interview McIntyre put both hands on Rose's shoulders as he turned to walk away. I thought he was going to hop on his back since Rose had been carrying him the whole match. Why stop now?
Pointless grades. It was obvious from the day one that the Americans don't have their best of best involved and Europe is playing against a B team. That alone and with the absolute incompetence of the US captain it was pretty easy on that course to win. This RC was a shambles.
