Pressure may be on the US player who doesn't get a point or half.
2021 Ryder Cup
Never seen Rory so emotional, tough week for him! (bleep)
Pretty impressive performance by a bunch of young first time Ryder Cup Americans! Way to represent your country!
Congratulations. And I feel I'll be writing that a few times more in the near future ...
Paul, you have email from me.
WTG USA!
I think this award should go to DJ and Rahm....both guys went all 5 rounds and played their butts off!
Total domination! Stricker got it right. Congrats to Team USA!!!
Kudos to the forum members that commented on the Captain's picks, contemplated and then chosen, and the importance of the ability to have clutch putting in their arsenal. There were makeable putts missed by America's young guns, sure, but no one got down on themselves with the flat stick. Both teams burned, or lipped out of, the cup all weekend but many more fell for Team USA. I mentally made a note early on in the matches that it looked like the tables had turned after watching the Yanks have so many near misses on the greens in competitions past and now I was watching the same fate unfold for the Euros. I watched as much, or more, golf this weekend than I get in for golf's majors. Beyond exciting for me.
On the Captain's picks it became very evident why Stricker chose Scheffler. Teamed with DeChambeau who else can you team Bryson with and have them both blossom. Whistling Straits definitely favored the long bombers and good wind players over shorter hitters. ie Na. Stricker did an admirable job and shook off the old guard way of thinking. Job well done by the whole team.
Gotta hand it to Poulter, though. That guy just won't lose

Don't know much about Euro golf, but they may be in trouble for awhile. Their stalwarts are getting really old and their younger guys didn't impress
I think Bryson won a lot of goodwill this weekend too. He should keep the baseball hat, too
sdandrea1 Koepka......your thoughts?
Seemed like the same as always. I still admire the way he plays and I didn’t mind his protest over the drain ruling if there actually was a drain anywhere near his swing path. Rahm and Garcia got the best of him this weekend, but they had to play some great golf to do it from what I saw.
