    Same. Suddenly we have 3 of the top 4 best players in world along with Hatton and Fleetwood who had very good PGA seasons. Rose experience and a couple of very decent first timers. Should be close but reckon we can do it.

    I didn’t second you mate, just offered on here as did @Peterleeyacker.
    I hope you’re enjoying it though, it’s a cracking club.

    I thought the Solheim Cup was the one where men and women competed together (and the last one was won by a woman) but it's actually the female Ryder Cup. What's the one I was thinking of? I remember it being a good watch.

    I not a great watcher of women's sport...Football, rugby, cricket...can't stand it. But the women golfers are excellent and have a great talent for the game. really enjoying the Solheim Cup. So as for women's sport...its cricket and beach volley ball :emoticon-0105-wink:

    It was the Scandinavian Mixed I was thinking of, different tees for the women but a level playing field otherwise. I enjoyed the last one I watched.

    It highlighted (in my opinion anyway) that it's one of the very few sports that men and women can compete equally at, once driving distance is taken out of the equation anyone can win.

    Big day tomorrow. Loving the Hovland Aberg pairing. Big John first up as well. Hope it is a really tight affair all the way through and Fleetwood wins the cup on the 18th on Sunday

    I think we will have enough personally. Thought we looked a bit jaded this afternoon, but I wasnt convinced USA were that great. Take Cantlay and Homa out and they still looked to be playing below their rankings.

    The US captain reckons there's a mystery illness going about in their camp and that's why they've been losing. If it's bad then they wouldn't be able to play and if it's a cold then get on with it and don't use it as an excuse.

    It sounded like bollocks, as I said you're either ill or you're not. Did Cantlay only find out about not being paid once he'd started? If he knew in advance and had a big problem with it why is he there? Sounds like a tosser.
