Here’s a taste of what GolfWRXers are saying in the forum, but click the link below to join the full discussion.
- WidespreadPanic: That Hatton-Casey pairing seems crazy. We’ll see how it turns out, but I would think you’d want Hatton somebody who doesn’t fold under pressure, a la Casey. Match 1: Europe, Match 2: US, Match 3: US, Match 4: US. USA up 3-1 after first session.
- tatertot: So no Bryson/Woods pairing after all.
- Smash Factors: The only U.S. pairing I don’t like is Spieth and Thomas. Seems like an obvious pairing, but Thomas has “2nd best” syndrome vs Spieth, and Spieth has not been playing well. If Thomas plays worse or better than Spieth, the dynamic becomes awkward.
- Dufner’s Waggle: “TV mounted in my office with an Apple TV and YouTubeTV. I’m good. Lots of ‘closed-door meetings’ tomorrow.”
- gatorMD: Euro pairings look totally outmatched for Friday AM. Feeling bad for a massacre right off the bat.
