Genuine question. How is the draw for the singles done?
I’ve always assumed the two captains submit their playing order without knowledge of each other’s order. Then they find out who plays who afterwards. That’s right isn’t it? So with this draw, Bjorn has had a result with Olesen up against Spieth - You’d fancy Spieth to win in any match up, so if you write that one off, we haven’t lost one of our ‘Big Guns’. (Not that Olesen is shite or anything - obviously anyone there could beat anyone else, but you know what I mean.)
4.5 needed. I could see Europe getting 3 from Molinari, Hatton, and Fleetwood alone. It's probably fortuitous for the US that they've been drawn against Phil, Reed, and Finau, as they look like nothing more than sacrifices to the Ryder Cup gods. Problem is, with that the US basically need everyone but one to win.
Entirely about momentum on the final day. Getting up in the early matches will inspire the rest of a team. This is far from over.
Exactly this. They would love to do to us what we did to them at Medinah. Lets nip it in the bud early,win a couple of the early ones and bring it home
Normally at this stage you have at least a couple of matches which are heading towards blow outs. At the moment, a maximum of one up between all matches.

Not the best start.
Rory 1 down after 1....
This could be an interesting match up!
So many ads on Sky. Ruins the tension.
Very confusing IMO.
currently 3-3
