The Ryder Cup

[HX76]

Not long now until the Ryder Cup, which is one of the finest sporting events there is I think and I don't even play golf.

Any opinions on how you think it will go?

Personally with home advantage, and I think just the stronger team, Europe should retain the trophy. That said the Yanks still look good and I think they'll play better without Woods.

Should be a belter, can't wait for the simple "USA USA USA" and "in the hole" chants/shouts and massive West Ham fan Paul McGinley lifting the trophy at the end of it all.

Maybe a few markets IN the Sports Book as we so we can have a flutter?

yeah...I think the European team will embarrass the US team this time around...alm:

I was going to put the Europe and USA top scorers in there as well, but got bored.

Thanks I'll have a proper look at that and get some bets on.

don't you guys say "have a butchers go" instead of "take a look"

Ha ha no you just say I'll have a "butchers" rather than a "butchers go". Do you know why we say butchers? No googling it. I am impressed you mentioned butchers though, so fair play!

 

[RhodyRams]

something about rhyming...butchers hook and look..dont really remember the whole story..buddy who lives in Bournemouth uses it on me all the time

 

[HX76]

Spot on Rhodster son. Butchers hook = look. I'm impressed!

 

[RhodyRams]

looks like Europe kicked our asses...

but hey, I had 250k at 8/3

 

[HX76]

Nice!

Nice!

Help me settle up, what was the final score, and who was the highest scorer? I assume Europe won?

Final score was 16.5-11.5

Yep 16.5 - 11.5 to Europe. Which funnily enough I had 5 grand on. If only I'd actually bet on it. Think the top scorer was Justin Rose.
