With hindsight, questions need to be asked about what happened in the Friday Foursomes. Did they just agree to lose the lot to keep it vaguely interesting? Weir's captaincy on Saturday was so poor too, did they have any strategy, any plans for what they'd do in certain scenarios? Felt like he just picked the Canadians to keep the crowd involved. Why would you leave a Major Champion off the golf course all of Saturday and then send him out first against Xander?Yeah blowout in the end...Matsuyama was terrific in taking down Sheffler though...
I think one thing that would help is switching to Ryder Cup format and only playing 4 pairs matches per session which helps negate the obvious strength in depth the US has. They probably need to get the LIV guys in there, Smith and Niemann for a couple of Canadians would probably have helped. Not picking Cam Davis was another huge error from Weir.The Presidents Cup is a mess and has been for years
Nobody denies that Scott is a top golfer but he’s never played on a winning team & Ryder Cup only became consistently relevant after it became Europe v USA
Some sort of change needs to happen here

But it's hard to see how anything really changes. There just doesn't seem to be enough talent around the world to create a competitive team, although I do think hosting it in Melbourne might at least help create a difficult atmosphere for the US.
Kingsbarns playing the easiest of the 3 I think, but they do set it up easier than normal for the amateurs to get round.Easiest course in the world?
Straight up embarrassing with no wind
But the LIV players would only turn up when there's no LIV tournament on. There are also a lot of DPWT players with morals who wouldn't want to have LIV as an option to them either.DPWT would be a really good tour if they did a deal with LIV
I was pulling for Nico as well as he needed a good finish to retain his card and was allegedly going to retire if notBut the LIV players would only turn up when there's no LIV tournament on. There are also a lot of DPWT players with morals who wouldn't want to have LIV as an option to them either.
Anyway, Hatton winning this for the 3rd time to no great surprise. It's not often I find myself supporting a Belgian over an Englishman, Colsaerts winning would've been cool. But hard to pull for a Liverpool fan from Bucks who normally acts like a petulant toddler.
I believe the Ryder Cup in Rome was about that for a week's pass. I don't really get why you'd go to this anyway, only 4 matches on the course for 4 of the 5 sessions means it's a tough watch.$750 for a ticket to the Ryder Cup?
How about no
