Ryder Cup 2025

When the Americans play in Limerick, I hope the European crowds greet them with grace and silence. No need for such boorishness, and just because American crowds have behaved thus is no excuse to follow suit.

So technically Europe could say 5 players are ill,not fit to play and win. Or have I read that wrong

 

[Eccles Blue]

Will we win? Golf is not a game I know much about but I am, obviously, supporting Europe and in particular Justin Rose.

Certainly looks that way

When the Americans play In Limerick,

Let's hope they don't get too much stick

They'll be beaten again

By a team full of men

Who all know their president's thick

The captains only nominate one player each who would stand down. So i assume you'd just forfeit the others if there was more than one injury.

Honestly, I can't stand how the American crowd is being here. I almost (almost) wish we'd walk off if it happens similarly today.

I know we want to win, I know we want to grind them I to the dirt, but part of me thinks it would shine a bigger light on the behaviour if, on the verge of winning, we just said "nah, we don't want to be a part of this anymore" and left.

We should do what they do at the end of Brassed Off, make the gesture but then grab the trophy on the way out anyway.

Maybe all turn their backs in silence. Or do the Poznan..

I really don't see the big deal about the heckling. Can understand the idea of it going on while making a putt but that's about it. Sounds like people can't make their mind up what sort of crowd they want at a Ryder Cup.

Some pressure on that tee shot on the 1st, well played Justin Rose taking that on.

Depends on what's being said. US comms were saying that they increased the police presence for Rory and Shane, so it must've been pretty bad.

Not sure what John would make of that Eccles?

Oh John will always be first....

A loud partizan crowd is absolutely fine as is booing etc
But personal abuse, swearing and certainly deliberately making noise as a player is preparing for a shot should result in the offenders being removed

No, I think there's a limit.

Show's how thick skinned footballers have to be really because they get dogs abuse compared to this.

The Irish Open is at Trumps golf course in Doonbeg next year.
Money and politics talk

Nice one Fitz
