It's called a flop shot. He just didn't execute.

but they had the great webb simpson instead

plus DJ, TW, Jason Dufner

Watson would've probably paired DJ with Jimmy Walker though

Webb denied Poulter that hole

lol there we go - famous victory

winning putt donaldson or poulter?

Praying that Poulter doesn't get to hole the winning putt

plz not poulter plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

I reckon Billy boy would be a Ryder Cup animal

I agree Rhino Billy Ho and Reed together would be compelling viewing

In fairness, Billy certainly didn't warrant selection at the time. Not a chance. Next time.

SKY have done a total black out on the DUBUISSON v JOHNSON match ... not one shot shown yet

Poulter playing like a 20+ handicapper

looks like Donaldson will close it out before the postman reaches the top of the High Street...

They should have the Ryder Cup in America a week later ... have it at two venues in the same year, aggregate score

R U DRUNK.......

lol

I think Sky will get on board Schalke

Johnson 1 up, not sure if Sky realise those two are out there

how many puts has IJP missed? ffssss

donaldson to hit the winning putt it seems - deserves it, been great.

the cameramen know...

Spliff and Mahan let down the team.......they both should have won.

Should be 12 - 11 at this point

victor at last

Has anyone seen duibisson today? oh forget it just seen him putt a good un back level :)

Overall Spieth had a decent Cup though, just didnt handle it today...Mahan was just being Mahan, nothing should ever be expected of him

It would be nice to see Sergio get the winning point.

Donaldson closes in style

woweeee donaldson

Brilliant from Donaldson

Donaldson the hero........

fat lady bursts into song .

14 1/2 9 1/2 europe win the ryder cup.

'' Most amazing Ryder cup we've seen'' says Ewan Murray!

Cmon get back to the golf, still got some bets going ffs

did he say that ?? lolol

"The most amazig Ryder Cup with seen'

How very lonely Zach and Victor must feel

Jesus wept what an idiot

^ Sky commentator obviously has short memory.

Think he meant most amazing Ryder Cup in 2014

Jamie is a likeable guy

Donaldson has a simple celebration.....one finger in the air......very silent......a bit boring.

He's a secret member of Isis obviously.

Donaldson's a proper bloke...

now they show dubussion

Jamie does look like the sort of guy you wouldn't mind sharing a pint with

Not sure the Frys.com thread next week will be this busy

Ha ha Rhino

The Ryder Cup is like the 5th Major.......

Agreed!

Methinks those out there would rather win The Players

or any tournament

ROb Lee: Garcia's iron shot could not be bettered

er, Furyk'a is a foot inside it

let the golfers wives play the foresomes 2016

could be Furyk's last moments in RC

In terms of popularity.....Ryder Cup different to standard strokeplay....more excitement for those in Europe and USA.....where do you live by the way

It's a good job we are not relying on Westoff

Murray imagines beating Furyk in a superfluous ryder cup match is going to propel sergio to world golf domination...keep taking the tabs ewan

in the end Europe have trotted up, like most people I thought theyd win but  im surprised it was so cosy.

poulter v simpon equates to each teams worst pl;ayer in tourney.could have gone either way I guess.

Victor and Zach are miles behind it seems....

Did garcia eagle the last or did they half it in 4?

I think 1/2 in 4

depending on what v dubuisson does can somebody tell me the places for outright top points scorer?

Dub to finish it off with a victory

status of last match?

what a drubbing this has been.

thinks its time for the yanks to enlist some help to make a match of this.

The America's v Europe and we may have a match.

Victor 1 up with 2 to play

dubuisson 1 up with 2 to play.

the yanks have already shown both tee shots at 17, about a minute before sky

Dunhill next week....Rory Boy playing.....

Americans just not good enough . Guess we have been saying that for a while now .

sky are still not showing it live, even now.

A jolly good 3 days.......not as good as it was 2 years ago.

sky not even showing Zachs putt.

Livo thinks there was a concession

bloody shambles

presume Victor conceded 18 and match is halved, would be nice to get confirmation

Official website showing that Zach was given that hole, match halved. 16.5 - 11.5.  Shambles re: Sky coverage from a selfish point of view regarding my correct score bets!

No, Zach holed the putt about 5 minutes ago

Ah ok, ta for the confirmation aberdonia. Shame to have to end up with such guesswork after 3 days of otherwise great coverage.

In fairness who really cared about the last couple of putts beyond a few gamblers on a website...sky not showing it for punters

i dont disagree, the yanks did show all the shots though, they seem much more
interested in the golf, sky seem more interested in production values
and a massive team of commentators.

enjoyed the yank commentary better

Skys coverage of the actual play was abysmal from start to finish  - much like the BBC at the Open.

The yank on sky is the best too imo, although he can get a bit carried away with the superlatives at times. Butch does come out with some great lines though, my favoutite was his description of bjorn as looking "like a tugboat captain who'd been too long at sea"

Butch can grate sometimes but he has so much knowledge of the game and players swings

Probably not kelly but i really think if they came out of sat morning fourballs 6-6 we'd have had a much closer match

Oh and had they had a different Captain.

That fcking poulter chip in....what a critical moment that was

ryder in France 4 years

wonder if bubba will make it

bubba blubbing even in defeat.

Not sure we can crow that 'The Americans are not good enough anymore'.
USA were missing Dustin and Horschel and Kirk ( 3 players in the world top 22)...reasonable to think they might have made some impact if they were there.
Not that much between the sides really ...a few fine margins here or there and we have a different ballgame...as is the case in most match-ups really.

They were also missing Woods, Dufner and Stricker because of injuries.

That said they were soundly beaten. The difference for me is Europe currently have 4 or 5 of the best players in the world where as the american team are all much of a muchness.

Europe's top players delivered Rose, Stenson, McIlroy, Garcia, added by great weeks for donaldson and dubisson. America were badly let down by the performance of Watson, Kuchar, Furyk,Z Johnson.

The American's also have too many players in their late 30s early 40s. Suspect their team may be very different in two years time.

should have included mcdowell as well 3 wins out of 3 and his comeback today settled the ship

Plus don't forget that Kaymer chap who decisively took down the Bubba man.

nice of him to chip in with a win wouldnt want him feeling left out

Dufner and Dustbin probably would have made a difference, not sure about the rest...Stricker wasn't needed given there was no requirement to include somebody willing to play with Tiger

The likes of Furyk and Kuchar are at nothing really but watch them rack up the top 10 finishes over the next 2 seasons and comfortably play themselves onto the 2016 team

Ewan Murray's idiotic "Most amazing Ryder cup we've seen!" comment reminded me of Whispering Ted Lowe's "The most amazing final I've ever seen" following Joe Johnson's 18-12 win over Steve Davis in 1986.

Which was precisely 12 months after the Taylor-Davis black-ball final.

Mind, at least Ted was pretty ancient by then...
