Reed claims Spieth didn't want to be paired with him in RC.

Justine Reed answered a twitter conversation on Saturday afternoon that was asking why Patrick was set down both foursomes matches and why he wasn't paired again with Spieth after they had so much success together 2 years ago. She answered 'ask Jordan' but should have said 'you should ask Jim'. That kind of set off a firestorm and led to the follow up questions at the presser...As far as I know, this was the first peek into dissention in our locker room even before Sunday's single matches.

Then Koepka and Johnson had words at the Euro's celebration party. EGOs at work here.

I read another analysis that related Americans success in majors to poor results in team events at the RC. The author tried to tie it to our culture.

GLFTPS I think Reed has issues.

The college stuff is just that...kid stuff.
It's irrelevant today and has been discussed ad nauseum.

Let's reverse the roles.
Should an 0-6 in singles guy be dictating anything, let alone whom he doesn't want to play with?
Maybe the biggest dick on the team is the media darling and we will never hear of it.

As a side note, anybody notice Rickie Fowler smile at all the whole weekend?
That's a telling sign when a social butterfly loses his colours.

PA-PLAYA It wouldn't surprise me if the PPV deal gets scrubbed and it's made available on GC for free.

It should be scrubbed and replaced with Spieth vs.Reed in light of recent events.

This, I like.

I think I WOULD pay for that one.

One thing Reed did was insure he'll never be a captain's pick. Although he played well on Sunday, he would've shot in the 80's with his own ball before that.

Reed is a hard guy to like and that's going to limit the number of guys who want to play with him. Also, he kind of thru Tiger under the bus by insinuating the reason he didn't play well was because he wasn't paired with Spieth.

I'm not nationalistic with these type competitions especially when in this case many of the European players live here. I did lose interest once it became a blowout. Maybe the whole team should've done what Justin Thomas did in playing the French Open this year.

Weirfan

Weirfan there is something terribly wrong inside that room and we are seeing glimpses of that with koepka nd DJ having gotten into a very thatening and heated argument to be pulled apart from each other. Dysfunctional is too kind a word to describe the US team.

Tell me more, I thought they were buds?

"A source told Golf Digest that Paulina Gretzky, Johnson's fiancee, was a central figure in the incident. Koepka's girlfriend, Jena Sims, was also involved."

some stuff on twitter from reporters....according to one Euro media persona- started on the flight over...translated from the French version,,

"Includes the detail that Jim Furyk was devastated by the team atmosphere all week, that Reed and Bubba made no effort to integrate into the team. Furyk had to talk to Brooks and DJ on the plane to tell them to please put the team first."

If Spieth wanted to play with JT more than Reed, so what? Spieth and JT were a successful team. Period. Even so, I tend to agree with Reed's other comments. With his RC record Furyk shouldn't have sat him. Speaking of Furyk, his RC record looks worse than Tiger or Phil's.

Weirfan "Includes the detail that Jim Furyk was devastated by the team atmosphere all week, that Reed and Bubba made no effort to integrate into the team. Furyk had to talk to Brooks and DJ on the plane to tell them to please put the team first."

Which explains why they were never paired as everyone thought they would be. Furyk might not be the fool we assume.

Weirfan Somebody turned down a different kind of fourball?

Sarnella I'll put my money on Koepka.
First round TKO!

I don't know, Dj's a great athlete and has that wiry "country strong" look.
