If ZJ called for the layup I don't have an issue with that. Trying a different strategy is fine by me. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. But then Spieth blows the shite into the water and doesn't execute, that's on the player.

Tone was set by the buddy golf captain selections imo and that’s what we got

Maybe because they were on American soil and a little more into it? idk They just haven't looked interested, imo.


They have a team captain who chose not to play into any of the motivational tactics at all. ZJ is a lazy arse captain. I would have leaned into the last team to win over there and used that as motivation. Zach chose to do absolutely nothing and just let these guys go play.

You needed a 2 there. Circumstances dictated you needed something on the green.

The two buddy picks (jt and burns) have showed some of the most fire

With them already green side bunker and fringe I think you have to take the chance of hitting it on the green and making an eagle. I don’t think it was the right call

I don’t disagree, but I don’t think it mattered either. Jordan wasn’t making birdie on that hole, and certainly wasn’t making eagle. He’s mentally done.

I blame your Iowa bias

The thing was, we probably needed 2, and in order for that to happen Jordan needed to hit driver.

I guess at this point I’ll root for Rory since I have +850 odds on anyone to win 5 points at the Ryder Cup.

Clark is a choke artist. I have no idea how he won a major.

Maybe there was some foresight, but in hindsight this course is about driving the ball long and straight. That probably means Bryson and Cam Young should have been on the team if we were actually going for course fit.

Hopefully euros are writing a song in honor of Zach Johnson they will sing all day tomorrow on their way to 20 points. That chode pisses me off.

This course showed driver isn’t really of much importance as everyone can reach the 5s and short pat 4s. Staying the fairway matters most

Nothing shows that more than Rory and his strokes gained driving being lower than ever

I'm still confused as to why ZJ was selected as captain.

Cantlay has to get this up and down. Clark isn’t making that putt.
