Danny Willett's brother has put the cat among the pigeons.

He could have written something quite funny on that theme, sadly he went way over the top in my opinion. Deserves a good slap. The US crowds will crucify Danny W now.

Yes, he certainly hasn't done his brother any favours, or the rest of the team.

It's not in New York, it's at Hazeltine in Minnesota.

We're used to the whole "ugly American" thing. Europeans generally didn't understand George Bush, and they don't understand Donald Trump (many Americans don't either). No worries. Minnesotans are mild and largely unflappable, and you can expect them to be "Minnesota Nice" (google the term if you aren't familiar with it).

Think the US will win this time to be honest.

Have a feeling the passing of Arnold Palmer will have an affect similar to Seve back at Medinah.

It's not in New York, it's at Hazeltine in Minnesota.

And this is why i dont put any effort in to match threads. They dont read em anyway.

I though it was Minnesota Fats?
He'd fit right in on here.

Anything I know about Minnesotans is what I've read of Garrison Keillor, eg

Welcome to Lake Wobegon, where all the women are strong, all the men are good-looking, and all the children are above average.

First blood to the USA.

BTW, after Brexit will there still be a European team or do we revert to GB & NI?

We're leaving the European Union, we're not actually leaving Europe.
