I think it's a bit lazy to say his heart's not in it. It's not lack of effort, he's just not good enough at the moment.
He’s still a top 20 golfer in the world so to say he isn’t good enough isn’t true. He’s just been shockingly bad in this Ryder cup and for me has looked beaten from the off in every session.

Yeah he's top 20 just about, but he's not playing down the local course, he's up against a bunch of top 10 players who are in form.
 
Fired up will do fuck all when consistently missing putts the average golf club pro makes 50% of the time

Rahm and Lowry aside the putting has been shocking. Hovland isn’t even anywhere near the cup for over 4ft. God knows what he’s seeing

Just looking at the world rankings and he’s 15th. 10 of the American side are ahead of him and the other 2 are just behind. Scary how good this American side are.
 
18 1/2 to 9 1/2 is the biggest win ever.

Not sure where Europe are going to get 4 1/2 points tomorrow to be honest! Rahm, Garcia...Lowry maybe?

Hovland or Fleetwood might. Wiesburger has played well too and Poulter and Hatton have at least had flashes. Casey, Westwood, McIlroy and Fitzpatrick have all been utterly useless throughout.

It might all depend on the match ups. We might get lucky with a few of their weaker players against some of the European players who've run hot and cold.
 
I just think McIlroy is not consumed with golf anymore. He's won 4 majors, he's been number 1 for a few years, he's made $500m and for the last few years he's probably been enjoying his life with the new wife and baby.

Very good point. Maybe in 7/8 years once they stop talking about him as they are now he will start getting back to where he was.
 
I don't think it boded well for Europe at all when you just look at the world rankings. There really wasn't much to choose from. Laughable how bad Mcilroy is these days yet somehow still sits 4th.

Pretty sure he’s not in the top ten anymore, he dropped out a couple of months ago.
