Euuuuuuuroooope ! Yeeees !

Take that USA.

Bit closer than I wanted, the Americans almost always win the singles, and I really wanted that dhead Thomas to get beat, but I’ll take it !!!
 
*smile* that was good , one of the best golfing events I’ve seen.

The Wug and Rose are not to of my faves , however ballsy ballsy ballsy

The repetitive fake cap nod was dead set childish
He just kept doing it over and over, for no reason. Nobody was yelling at him or winding him up. It was Cantlay the day before they were doing it to. Otherwise Thomas made a *smile* of himself yet again.

Yeh, he behaved like a fwit. Like most of the yanks. Cantlay's caddy should not have behaved like he did on that 18th. Cantlay appears a real knob also.

Shuffles v Rahm was brilliant. If Shuffles was a better putter he'd be unbeatable. Amazing ball striking.

Rahm really let him off the hook in the middle of the round but hit back well enough to tie.
 
I know the vice captains are pretty much all major winners , however why do the US feel they need so many , personally hated the hanger oners at Pennant giving advice , pains in the arse .


Again fkn great win Euro’s , Yank crowd will be woeful at the next Ryder cup

It’s gonna be in New York State. At Bethpage.

It will get out of hand. Beyond acceptance. Guarantee it.
 
worthy of a trip to the ol U S of A
Nah. You don’t wanna be there listening to and watching their behaviour. Been to 4 majors in the US and their crowds can be damn ordinary. Ryder Cup would be unbearable. You’d end up in barney’s all day every day.
 
Mr B, played the Moonah a couple of times recently. Really starting to develop a love for that layout.

Is there a better finishing 5 holes in Australia?

Once again, surprised at the amount of unfilled divots. Staggering lack of care for such an amazing place.

Certainly not any tougher , Moonah such a better course then Gunnamatta considering it’s basically the same terrain ,
The Moonah tree on 18 fairway I’m told is 600 years old
there’s a great Youtube of the old done by Ron Chooper earlier this year , geez the greens looked exceptiona that day ;) , I think it’s Calle Ron Chopper vs The National

Just watched a bit of it. It presents the course beautifully. Pity they changed the finishing holes, used to love that 14-18 finish.

Same except for when your walking.

Took 3 mates from here on the bush down to the old about a month ago , handicaps between 6 and 10 , not one would have broken 90 and I’d say 20+ balls were donated to the course …. Great entertainment lol , they all said best course they’ve played

Yeh, 16 was brutal when on foot but what a hole. Reckon I've played it 20-25 times and don't think I've ever got par. Not sure I've ever hit the green in 2...and whilst I'm no pro and currently off 10 I have been down to 4 so am not a deadset hacker.

Any tips for how to play it? I've tried Driver/5 Wood/3 Iron with fades/draws etc but just can't get off the tee there.

Even thinking about that course makes me keen to be out there...

Obviously depending on wind , i generally take driver and aim at the top bunker with a draw , usually leaves a 9 or wedge , if the flags red it’s on that small back tear , so at least 2 extra clubs . If it’s white always play long as it will funnel back down . It’s better to be a bit right of the tee as left gets u blocked out . Pretty simple really .

A bloke who plays with Graham Bond all the time hold a shot from 150 for birdie when I was on the green one day , it landed on the hill left and funneled back around into the hole
