Ryder Cup Discussion

[B.A.R.]

Bryson on the bench?

Not surprised.

He spent more time training for the upcoming long drive championships.

 

[B.A.R.]

Obviously I am invested in Europe, and pondering more...

I really like them to start out at least 2.5-1.5 in the morning...

 

[B.A.R.]

US Wild Card, and there has been plenty of talk about it, is Danny Berger. He has the edge of a European.

 

[KJ]

Bryson on the bench?

Seems bizarre

I know it's gonna be windy, look for low ball, control players imo

Jordan might be all over the place but at least he has JT to straddle him

 

[Timh]

Not surprised.

He spent more time training for the upcoming long drive championships.

Very tough to pair him up in foursomes, would imagine he does not play that format. On the holes he doesn't drive, I think his shorter iron play is not efficient enough. Kind of a butcher with his wedges imho....

 

[Timh]

I'm thinking Bam Bam plays with Scheffler in four ball.

 

[KJ]

Pretty unpatriotic so Cub can give me a solid CTG execution but just bet these

Day 1

Europe to win 4-ball +180 .5*
Europe to win Foursomes +180 .5*
Europe to lead after day 1 +175 .6*
Europe to gain the first full point +120

Day 2

Europe to win 4-ball +180 .5*
Europe to win Foursomes +180 .5*
Europe to lead after day 2 +188 .6*

Rahm top European player +333 2*

 

[Timh]

I like the Rahm top Euro, BOL KJ.

Why do I feel like a traitor Doc?

It's a value proposition hopefully.....all is fair in love and gambling

 

[Timh]

Meaning I would take a scalp if I could and root for the U.S., you know for full disclosure

 

[KJ]

Hard to pass up those significant plus numbers given what we know

 

[B.A.R.]

I agree

 

[KJ]

Yep and if it goes like I think it will I'd expect something like 7.5-4.5 for the US on Sunday...will be monitoring closely

 

[Timh]

It's all relative to current status between these matches, but from a rest or not rest perspective have to think Rahm is the most likely to play 5 matches and I would guess JT or Cantlay for the U.S. to be the most likely to get stretched...

 

[Ryno14]

Rahm/Sergio > JT/Jordan
Hov/Casey > DJ/Mori

 

[KJ]

Just saw first tee time is 5:05am my time

When I'm awake at that time it's usually on the sofa or need to call an Uber/Lyft

FML that's early. Like being a futbol fan at times

 

[Timh]

Pacific time high colonic....

 

[Timh]

Rahm/Sergio > JT/Jordan
Hov/Casey > DJ/Mori

Not sure about second match, I think if DJ drives it well they can be a really good pairing....Agree on edge to Rahm/Garcia though Garcia putting is ?

Yeah I can see that. I think my favorite is Brooks/Berger over Westwood and Fitz but of course that’s the most juiced - for a reason

 

[KJ]

Pacific time high colonic....

Do you wake up or stay up at that point?

 

[jimmymo]

My only play right now is DJ/Morikowa over Casey/Vik.........tough format for Vik and his below average short game........love Koepka/Berger because they are both just hard charging assholes.....price just too high.......

5 am right around the corner......can't wait to watch that first match.....lean spaniards, but not gonna play it

 

[jimmymo]

Gonna play one more...........Speith U2.5 points (-160).....I will pay to see it.

Let's just fuck about and kick it til tee off!

You already knew the answer, just carry on.....

 

[B.A.R.]

So many props I like tbh ...

Gonna play a few small for fun but I'll play/post full unit here.


Poulter o1.5 pts +110

I'm too old to make the "correct" answer Timmy

Now I worry more about my readers than what my nose is reading

If he plays 4 matches it's gold

If he plays 3 I certainly give it more than a +110 chance

 

[B.A.R.]

Exactly

We know he's got two off the rip. I expect success early on. I expect he'll have a solid shot on Sunday.

I have him at 2/2.5 likely.

He's made for this.

Good start tomorrow they get grouped again...

Really good stuff here KJ....lotta value imo....GL bro

 

[B.A.R.]

Those day 1 plays are terrific, imo @KJ

Thx mate...win a couple and it's playing with house money kinda give/take

 

[KJ]

Other than the clear fan advantage, everything else about this course is basically built for European golf

Pretty pumped

 

[KJ]

Just look at BAR's scorecard last week when he played a Euro course

I'm fine with $ over patriotism.

 

[KJ]

Missed the 5am wakeup call but responded to the 6am follow up

This course is amazing

 

[cubsker]

leaving the flag in is Yag

 

[KJ]

Rory and clutch putting seem to be like oil and water

 

[cubsker]

Cantlay and X going to win 10 & 8?

 

[KJ]

Cantlay and X going to win 10 & 8?

Be funny (not lucrative for me) if they go 9 up through 9 and they get the match conceded

 

[cubsker]

US Iron play solid so far

 

[KJ]

Lake effect has been non-existent

Hope it gets tougher in the afternoon

 

[cubsker]

spieth needed that putt there.

 

[cubsker]

DJ/Morikawa about to wrap it up.

 

[cubsker]

Euros ain't luckboxing a bunch of 18 footers like usual

 

[KJ]

Gonna need Blake to jack around or will be a pricey morning

Great move by Stricker pairing him with Berger, basically the most emotionless cat I can think of

 

[Ryno14]

Can someone explain to me what happens next in the afternoon? This is my first time getting into the Ryder Cup.

4 more matches, but each player plays their own ball instead of alternate shot. Low score wins.

Afternoon both players will play their own ball and take the better score

This morning is alternate shot
