if this was boxing the towel would be in by now. What a spanking so far.
US need 3 1/2 or 4 this afternoon to keep Sunday a contest.

Could have done without that ending there in the last game, a bit silly we let them back in there from being 2up with 3 to play. Fair play to Cantlay though, that's nerves of steel and real strong mentality to go and birdie the last 3 holes with what was going on.
This is far from over, they have momentum and we know how important that is. We've come back and won from being further behind so we know it's more than possible.

Its definitely possible but neither team has ever come back from more than 4 shots behind.
Played golf this morning.
Weather was ok but can tell the course is starting to suffer the "winter weather" a bit.
Starting to look a bit scruffy/muddy in places - mud balls already an issue.
Played solid enough - birdied 7 & 8 to be +2 on the way out. But silly double on 13 and 16th, both caused by crap muddy lies when trying to chip over bunkers.
Shot gross 80 - 7 for 73 so not too bad, but could have been a couple better for sure.

On the final day correct but we were a lot further back than that at Medina where Poulter started the comeback on Saturday afternoon.
Only ever 4 behind at worst at the end of the Saturday. Think it got to 6 mid Saturday afternoon .

it is, but I don't like the amount of red on that board. Thank goodness we only need a few points here.

Yeah too much red but as you say only needing a few more points now, Americans certainly better today than they were Fri/Sat.

they couldn't have been much worse haha.
It's looking good now though with Rosey bringing his match back to just 1 down. If Rory can get his match done quick, that's another huge point on there and the yanks might start to give up knowing we so close to that win.

Yeah Rory must be close to the end now, be nice to see Rose pull his match back for at least a half point as well.

Although we only need 1 1/2 more points right now, this is looking like going right to the wire now. So much red in the middle order, then we relying on our bottom two matches. Squeeky.
