He's whining about the "envelope rule" about unfit players having a named opponent drop out and share the point when they can't play. He wants it scrapped, despite it being in for years and the USA benefitting from it in 1991when they won.

Typical sore loser, "it's my ball and I'm not playing unless I win" attitude. People like Jack Nicklaus, Tom Watson and Paul Azinger must be embarrassed by him.

Looked like he was about to cry all weekend. Great plan to let them think they had a chance of winning before we left it last couple of pairs. Sore loser.

There's something about Keegan Bradley I just don't like. The bottom line is Europe are a united cohesive unit, not just the players, but the entire backroom team as well, with a strategy and goal in mind ( Sounds a bit like Sunderland right now) . The europeans wanted it more, the first 2 days they blew the US away. even yesterday, there wasn't one point where if the matches all ended at any stage.... America would have still fallen short. I never felt we wouldn't make it. The USA are a talented bunch of individuals who really couldn't give a s hit about the competition as financially it's not a huge payday. All the nonsense about the envelope is a distraction from Bradley to hide his own deficiencies at the Captains job

The envelope rule was introduced in 1979 .
It’s a biannual event .

prior to yesterday it was used twice , both times it benefitted the USA , they won both competitions .

Yesterday Europe benefitted .

in 23 competitions it has been used 3 times .

Is Bradley really that thick he can’t see it’s benefitted team USA more than team Europe ?
