Ryder Cup - EUROPE RETAIN, hold on WIN!!!!

Leroy AmbroseLeroy Ambrose
edited September 2012 in Other Football and Sports
Absolutely pumped for it this year. Hope we stick it to the yanks good and proper. Have a horrible feeling they will hand us our arses, but whatever happens it will be amazing. If I was Ollie, after my team talk, at the end of every day, I'd pause for a few seconds reflection. Then send them out with 'for Seve'.

I'm tearing up here.

    Always seen it as a bit of an unfair contest, seen as Europe is almost twice as populated as the USA. That said, I, of course, want Europe to win!!

    Will be a very emotional ryder cup knowing how much this meant to seve


    Just cant help but think the crowd will influence play and we will lose the spirit of the cup

    If ollie does it you can imagine how emotional he will be and that he wants it for seve

    Lets just hope the great man is watching and helping

    Cant wait for this without a doubt the highlight of the sporting calender for me

    Fridge full of cider tv on best golfing event nearly here

    Can not wait

    Have ensured wife is out Friday and Saturday night. Am also playing in my club's Autumn Cup this Saturday and Sunday morning.

    Most evenly matched teams in a long while, think their players are in better form, but we have the better Ryder Cup experience - people like Donald, Garcia, Westwood and Poulter have Ryder Cup records far better than others playing.

    Will be all about the afternoon of the singles and can see it going down to the last two or three matches at least.

    Come on Europe!

    In terms of rankings has got to be the strongest line up ever. Also thinks it's to close to call. Home advantage may give the edge to the usa. No doubt the crowd are going to be loud but I think one or two of ours will enjoy that atmosphere.

    Chrissy - don't cry for the Yanks. I think you will find there are c 25 million registered golfers in the US and something less than 5 million in Europe. Let's take that cup again and celebrate as Europeans! Nothing quite like the Ryder Cup for Europe.

    Not normally one for watching golf on TV but when the Ryder Cup comes round, it makes for compelling watching. No doubt will enjoy it so much I'll end up playing Tiger Woods on the XBox next week.

    For anyone that enjoyed the excitement and Passion of the Olympics, I urge you to watch this spectacle.
    By far the best sporting event ever invented.

    The US team have done everything to give them the edge. They possess the bigger hitters but not the most accurate so Davis (pencil neck) Love has instructed the green staff to cut all the rough down so Tiger and Bubba Watson can spray it all over the place without penalty. The crowd will for the most part be hostile which is a bit daunting. However Europe has the best players by a mile so I predict a very close win for Europe but it's going to be very tough.

    Maybe in 2015 we should consider Carnoustie and grow thr rough to 5 feet and then watch Tiger and Bubba spray it around!

    True but bear in mind half of Europe don't play golf. For a start, take out the population of all the countless countries that made up the old USSR and Yugoslavia (got to be over 250 million surely) because they hardly ever play golf and it's more of a level playing field.

    Is it me or is there a bit of extra needle about this one, particularly from the Yanks? They appear to be trying to intimidate through the media a bit more I reckon.
    Anyway, heres praying we give 'em a kicking...and doing it on their patch just makes it sweeter.

    How awful is the opening ceremony?! Bloody hell. Let's hope the captains liven it up a bit.

    Ollie didnt last long before he cried


    It's always boring this bit but it's the tradition and a big bit of the build up

    Get the nicety out of the way


    Then fight tooth and nail for 3 days

    Love Ollie almost as much as Seve. I was welling up when they showed Ollie crying. Has there ever been a sportsman who has had such an influence on a sport as Seve did?
