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

More proof why Europe just continues to win. It's like we've learned nothing from the 2014 debacle. https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/golf/ryder-cup-201...

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.

Yeah. Sure did.

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.

or replaced with an MMA Cage Match between DJ and Koepka (which would go for about 30 seconds).

What's the over/under with news coming out in the next few weeks of DJ having hit on Koepka's girlfriend?

Wouldn't be the first time it's happened with him.

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.

I did read the official count was an 85.

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?

Weirfan

garyt1957

happened at the Euro celebration party , people are keeping tight lipped which they should as it reflects poorly in the event and US players but a few leaks and apparently very heated argument Koepka was the aggressor and threatened DJ. I'm sure alcohol was involved

not sure we will ever learn more, probably the best...

Weirfan Koepka was the aggressor and threatened DJ

Can you imagine JT or Webb Simpson trying to hold back Koepka or DJ? THAT could have been some team bonding there - three or four guys each trying to hold back those gorillas, and Bubba watching it all in tears while Reed steals money out of their luggage and Phil naps.

Weirfan

"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."

garyt1957

Weirfan Somebody turned down a different kind of fourball?

Weirfan

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."

I think you were the first person in this thread to mention the term "dysfunction."

Dustin Johnson has a history of not being able to control his "johnson." He's a horn dog and has never met a woman he didn't think he couldn't satisfy in bed, even if it's another tour player's wife. He should've been a porn star instead of a pro golfer, me thinks. Good luck with that realization, Wayne Gretzky.

Bubba needs Webb, or else he pouts, holds his breath and jumps up and down until he gets his way. Spieth needs JT to carry his sorry ass play. Fowler can get along with anyone, could be paired with anyone, but his mannerisms suggested that there was something bad going on within the team room. Spieth didn't want to play with Reed, despite their success. Despite Reed's record in this event. Reed said f-it, I'm gonna call him out on it. Mickelson sucked, per usual, Tiger sucked, per usual.

What have I missed?

There's just too much f-ing drama here. Good luck to the next American soap opera captain.

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

Spuzz

Weirfan Bubba made no effort to integrate into the team.

This seems odd as he lobbied so hard to be there when he wasn't on the team.
Weird.

PA-PLAYA Hence my call for a non-golf captain - like Ditka, who won't take any crap from the prima donnas. Maybe the PGA should go to 12 Captain's picks so they can eliminate the azzhats and egos and go with 12 guys who want to be there.

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.

MidwayJ

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. ☺

MidwayJ

Not that I disagree. But if you have half dozen egomaniacs on the team, the end result doesn't matter.

Jim Furyk made mistakes, for sure, but he's no Dr. Phil.

Ditka, Belichick, etc... they wouldn't put up with this shit on their football teams during the playoffs.

Who in their right mind knows what the hell bubba is thinking. His own psychiatrist doesn't know what the hell he's thinking half the time.
