2021 Ryder Cup
Day 2 - Brooks and Berger are hot. 2 up after 2 vs Rahm/Garcia. Berger rocking a hoodie - he couldn't walk into a 7-11 with it up but it's OK at Whistling Straits
Leave it to Spieth/Thomas to keep the Euros hope alive
It's early, but the European team may need to clean house and go younger. Time to dump Westwood and Casey and maybe even Garcia. Not sure if they have the depth to do it though.
I get the feeling I’d shoot 143 if I was at Whistling Straits today. 190 if from their tees.
Westwood and Garcia woke up.
Momentum has shifted!
ValueGolf - his game has been iffy but he possesses a lot of fire in his belly. That putt that led to the win may have turned the momentum - now down only 2. He's jazzed.
johnnydoom Agreed, does not look fun and I expect slightly more than $12.
Meh. Gets fired up about not getting a gimme on this last hole and promptly slices it into the fescue.
ode For me, the Ryder Cup is also fan participation and I don' think Whistling Strait has that due to terrain and layout.
ValueGolf - there have been a lot of 2 footers not conceded in this competition. Garcia was a little irked on the first hole in Match #1 yesterday. I don't think the TV cameras are doing justice to the breaks on some of these putts. I couldn't believe Thomas's drive there.

Bravopilot a valid point. I think in this case the course is so good for this type of event, the two sides accept the elements for the fans that might not be ideal. Having been there it is a pain to get around in spots, but their are spots that are fabulous for watching shots, multiple holes. I had the opportunity to go x2 but could not have gotten out of work, nor would I have went. Too many people to make it worthwhile to watch the way that I prefer.
Apparently there's a few local Cheeseheads that are well lubed already. Several Euro's have stopped to glare at the crowd after striking the ball. Not cool.

Not having the Euro fanbase is a BIG disadvantage for team Europe.
Plus Wisconsin is major beer consuming state .
Neither Thomas nor Spieth could get the ball out of the greenside bunker and picked it up to concede the hole. Welcome to my world <chuckle>.
This seems a silly argument by Koepka, looks bad too.

Sounds like he was right and did hit the drainage grate. Didn't hurt him though so that's good.
garyt1957 If he was so concerned about hurting himself after he lost the ruling, pick the ball up and drop, but he didn't. Why the lengthy argument? Now, if this was done by the Euros I would have thought it an intentional delay tactic--which is an unfair bias on my part.
