Who gives a fuck if they did? Ohhh we all rallied to get paid but really it's for charity! Give me a fucking break.

I'm sure the charities that got the donations gave a fuck but maybe they didn't care.

both teams play the same course 

You keep saying this and it’s obviously true but different set ups benefit different teams/players.

I’m not going to pretend I understand all of the nuances, but the No Laying Up guys have been very critical of the set up and Keegan even said it didn’t work to their advantage. It’s a mistake at a home Ryder Cup.

beth page was a bad choice because it's 'teeth' is being in us open mode, great for a us open. a ryder cup shouldn't be played under us open conditions.

you can't play 36 / 36 / 18 on that kind of course 

why do you think sundays at the masters are amazing ? the course is set up for scoring,  they want someone to make a charge. thats a ryder cup set up. imo

There were no hazards on the course. The only water in play is on the 8th hole. The first cut of rough was a pristine lie. Even the second cut was never an issue. 

It's malpractice not to try and create some sort of advantage for your squad through research/analytics. 

That's my argument - this course WAS setup to be advantageous to the US. No penalities off the tee, soft attackable greens, wide enough fairways. Euro favored courses are tight, penal, brutal rough, rock greens. Minus the rock greens, that's exactly what Paris and Rome were. 

And again, didn't matter. Euros trashed us anyways. Keegan saying they could have set the course up different is a bullshit distraction from the reality that he fucked up pairings and the players were totally outclassed.

IMO: Shitty play, Poor pairings, dudes who had no business playing at all, course set up

 

Disagree. The Euros played out of their minds, period. The Bradley criticism is unwarranted.

I'd argue the course setup was advantageous to both teams. What Euro player - let alone weekend hacker - wouldn't love a penalty free setup, soft greens, and wide fairways?
