Ryder cup talk

Reed v Rory was great entertainment.

Brooks Koepka had an unbelievable weekend.

Reed/Rory was just fantastic to watch
Phil/Sergio was just as good, 19 birdies between them is just unreal

2018 team will be tough also with Fowler, Koepka, Reed, DJ, Speith, etc.  Add the two other young studs, Berger and Thomas......

Hopefully Furyk gets captain spot. 

Great viewing last three days.  Congrats USA

They could show the Reed/Rory and Phil/Sergio matches on endless loops as how to play golf at the highest level.    Phenomenal.   If Phil had missed that last putt, it would mean that he would have shot 8 under and lost a Ryder Cup singles match after shooting 65 in the final round of the Open and losing.

Speith has yet to win a singles match in the Ryder or Presidents Cup.

Loved the reed-mac fist bump acknowledging each other's great putts.  Saw a side of Garcia I don't think anyone has ever seen.  He seemed like he was having fun despite the hostile atmosphere.  his humility might even get him a few more endorsements-smart.

I don't think the few a-hole fans was any different than past cups, both here and in GB.  The media just happened to focus on it more.  Let's see in 2 years how well their fans behave, that's if the media will tell ya about it...

The funny thing is it's American media that's blowing it up. Over here in wonderful old England yea they mention the unruly behavior but it hasn't been made a huge deal of. None of my classmates have been upset about it either, they were laughing at the putt for $100. And we're all sports journalists.

The American media-no surprise.  They are always trying to make the world think we are the bullys.  As I said before, have they seen a European soccer match?  Those fans make our Ryder cup a-holes look like alter boys

It's not a media conspiracy.   No one has ever heard European fans, on a live TV feed, telling an American player to go suck a ****.    You've never heard European fans yelling expletives while an American is over a putt.     The endless, mindless 'baba-booies' were in response to something written by the brother of Danny Willett, but that doesn't make the people yelling them any less moronic.     We may hear European fans yell that weak assed BS going forward, but if so, this was the start.     
    FWIW, it was better today.    But Saturday was a new, all-time low.       Going forward, they need to stop serving alcohol at these things.    And as a fan, cheer loud, be passionate, don't make yourself part of the story.    Because it is rarely in a good way.     Though that guy coming out of the crowd to make a putt was pretty cool.   

edit:   After some contemplation......99% of the fans were exactly what they were supposed to be.  Passionate, loud, enthusiastic.   1% gave the rest a bad name.
