The Ryder Cup 2008 Thread

[1927]

What a bloody great evening's entertainment. Atleast we went down with ione hell of a bloody fight and it wasnt the walk over today that many were predicting. Faldo could have maybe put some stronger players out early on, but Kim was superb about 10 under I think and noone would have beaten him. Casey was undone by a fluke put, and if that hadnt gone in the draw was very likely.

Well done USA, just wish some of your team and spectators could have shown a bit of class, some restraint and learnt to win with dignity!!

I've switched to the radio, and Kenny Perry has just given a very gracious and sweet interview. I guess he knows it's his only Ryder Cup.

They're interviewing Paul Azinger right now, and he's been nice as well - reckons that the US fans need to get some decent songs!

I thought they were alright this time, what did i miss?

Kim tonked Garcia, whatever tactics Sergio was playing to backfired and he never looked liked winning. Have to say Ian Poulter played superbly, Europes man of the weekend i reckon. The US team just played better this time.

Yep, I'm sure there's a Mod observing your every post ready to spring into action.

"2008"?

Anyway, apart from the golf, which I'm looking forward to (Ryder Cup weekends in the pub = win), I found out the other day that a former barmaid / student in my local has recorded the semi-official song for this year's competition -

she's hot

She is indeed, I may watch the opening ceremony at 3:30 to see her perform

I see the yanks got in a baby bombing fighter pilot for their team talk, militarist patriotic twats, hope they get hammered, two very good golfers from northern Ireland in the team.
