The Americans will set it up to be a birdie-fest on home turf, rough cut back and plenty room to spray it everywhere. It could turn into a fairly febrile atmosphere if Europe can keep it close, between the personalities on their side with the Noo Yawk crowd
Guys should we update the thread title? Rome was majestic but thereâs a new & incredibly daunting task at hand. I donât fancy our chances tbh. I donât want to do a @Cheasty & reference fascism & kleptocracy on every other threadâŚbut Bethpage Black Course can be boisterous at the very best of times. This will be several notches beyond that with the way America has descended into a rogue state, even since the last renewal stateside. Trump will be there. It will be raucous, rowdy & possibly even bawdy & toxic. Call it xenophobia, isolationism, racism or whatever you like, but America is destroying itself & maybe even the world from within. But I reckon our continentâs golf team will fall before theirs. I think our boys will be in for savage verbal abuse from tanked up Todds in MAGA hats. I see Captain Bradley opened up the week at 9am yesterday by gathering his squad around the first tee to hear a speech from a 9/11 family member. This will only ramp up throughout the week & I wouldnât be surprised if Charlie Kirkâs widow shows up at some stage. Itâs hard to win away from home these days - it took a miracle at Medinah - & I donât believe the conditions exist for that to happen again. Weâve seen that fat, grassing cunt from Offaly lose the rag if Giles from Guildford twitches during his backswing at Wentworth. Imagine how easily heâll implode at Bethpage receiving a torrent of abuse all weekend. I see this as a 16.5 to 11.5 type victory for USA USA USA. Theyâll get a lead early on & never relinquish it.
Are we starting to see any trends with the practice pairings? I see Ludvig & Viktor were put together yesterday - thatâs a potential pairing. Whoâll Rory take under his wing this time? Itâs a relatively experienced lineup though.
Id imagine the pairings will be exactly the same as last time. The europeans will be channeling the dirty dozen on an impossible mission that they somehow succeed in. Like the dirty dozen they wont all make it though as a few inevitably get shotâŚ
Most of the Europe team are friends/âgolf buddiesâ of Trump so his presence may not have a malign affect on them , but the sight of fat car dealers from Alberqueque and botox injected pharmaceutical salesmen from Des Moines in MAGA hats tanked up on Miller Light and ramping up the jingoism should cause some soilage in their golf chinos at some point.
team, first away win since the Miracle at Medinah incoming
