Solheim Cup

think the players were blameless there - it was obviously never going in but it was daft of her to pick it up like she did. Great first day for Europe there

Did feel harsh alright but that's the game sometimes, she did feck up. Thought it was funny the way the guys on comm were joking about it as it happened, about how she wasn't hanging around when she went to pick up kordas ball. She thinks maybe it's not on the lip, but it was close enough to be taking chances with it.

we get it every year ,the reason we get it is because sky,media want it, you could stop it in a nano second by just saying in match play you just putt out like in stroke play
the referees were actually told to look out for ,call out ,get involved in any possible rule breaking even if players wernt getting involved

Very good day for Europe. Could have been even better if Ciganda hadn't made a mess of that relatively short putt on 17.

Surprised the US use Thompson so often.

you would of thought tv camera would of zoomed in on the ball

tv coverage shocking, missing crucial shots while spending minutes on no hoper putts for bogies

Seems as if the tide has turned over the back nine.

Some real junk from Europe, particularly from senior players like Nordqvist and Hull. That flyer from the bunker, and then to miss a short putt as well. It's already looking like one match too many for several of them.

Only for maguire, the whole match would have turned right on its head. Seriously good performance from her today. Reid chipped in with a couple of good putts to be fair to her.

DRIVES,WEDGES,PUTTING THAT CHARLIE HULL JUST SEEMS TO BATTER EVERYTHING AS HARD AS SHE CAN

cannot believe that happened..........just make them putt out.

Refs should only interfere when asked by players.

So a ref is alerted to a clear rules violation on the video, but can't intervene because none of the players asked for it. I don't think that would be right tbh.

TV coverage has been abysmal - matches going down 18 get shots crowbarred in minutes after theyve been played yet some game that is all over at 4 Up all of a sudden gets every shot televised (if Europe are winning it) - whoever is in charge of whats being broadcast should be sacked

europe 2 up,plus their holders so in sporting terms only need to draw the match to retain trophy,
can see that ruling becoming even more important

That final shared match might be crucial. A two point lead seems much better than one. Don't know what Salas was thinking not conceding that final putt.

Bookmaker odds seem to suggest there isn't much in any of the singles matches.

I am in awe of some of this golf, particularly Thompson and Nordquist. They may not hit the ball as far as men but I would back them in a putting contest against anyone. Same the Raducanu tennis is not live apart from Amazon but it is keeping me glued to golf.

USA could still make it interesting yet

Totally agree sageform, some of putting has been of the highest order most definitely.

Lovely trade 2/5 after laying at 1/20
