Super official Ryder Cup 2018 thread discussion

So it seems like Bryson, Tiger and Phil are automatic for 3 of the 4 captains picks.  The last pick will be interesting, I think probably Webb.

[Tank]

Exactly what everyone thought happened.  Will be interesting to see the final pick, didn't realize that Webb Simpson already made the team.  Sounds like Finau is the top candidate, I think he would be a good addition.

Finau would be an excellent nteresting pick, and I'd be interested ntersted him interesting option.

Finau gets the final spot

[mtangelsfan]

That seems right.

He will be a good partner for either Phil or Tiger.

I like it 

[Angel Oracle]

Lefty better NOT play like he did in Atlanta!

[mtangelsfan]

Yeah, I think the U.S. is going to get stomped.  Most of the Americans aren't hot right now.  

[Lou]

Reed is the only golfer who was booed.

the worst part of the Ryder Cup is having to listen to the stupid French accent.

Slightly disagree.

Looking at last weeks tournament, 5 of the guys finished in the top 10.

I don't like one tournament as a sample size, but they played well coming in. Same could be said for some of the Euros.

Fair point, just worried about Phil and a couple others who cooled off big time.

Yeah, the Ryder Cup is a different beast. I think most can say the same about Ian Poulter, but he smashes in this event and hope Phil and the others can step on the gas the same way.

It should be fun, but I'm not getting up that early to watch.
