    Will probably get it over the line but there was definitely a bit of over confidence today.

    This has been one of the most pathetic performances from Europe in a Ryder Cup day.

    Absolute * embarrassment the way this has gone down

    Obviously in the rules but I would have thought hovland should have forfeited the point if he couldn’t play.
    Not that I want the us to win but I do think that’s slightly unfair.

    All the credit to the Americans, the Europeans are absolutely running on fumes but they’ve rode a wave today.

    Added a bit of jeopardy, been another fun day of sporting drama!

    Played like they'd been on the sauce all last night prematurely celebrating the win.

    Literally just had this conversation with the missus, you should 100% lose the point if you can’t play for whatever reason.

    Considering it looked like it'd be a cakewalk it's been an epic conclusion. Cinematic stuff for Lowry.

    It’s weird. It would never happen but technically the Europeans could have went out on the * last night, said they couldn’t play today, then won by a much bigger margin than they have.

    There should be an extra player there in case of an injury. That was what happened during the Covid one.

    Christ, 1 European win out of 11 matches today. That’s dire.

    A win’s a win, though!

    Being semi serious, we have seen how the likes of trump bends rules / laws. This could be actually done, one way or another, to get a much needed point or 2 if this rule isn't changed.

    Great to win the Ryder Cup on yank soil.

    But * me what an opportunity to give them an absolute doing and they * it.

    Feels like going 3-0 up at Ibrox after half an hour and it finishes 3-2 with them hitting the bar and the post at the end.

    Damage was already done tbf. Was more nervy than it needed to be but don't think America were ever winning 10 matches today.

    Aye it was and everyone knew that coming into it. But definitely the context of the tournament and how it panned out just makes it feel a little bittersweet for me.

    USA get to leave all prideful. Could’ve really embarrassed them
