Solheim Cup

I was thrilled to see the Euros claw it back to 5-3. It was getting out of hand after the morning 4 somes.

Great theater

Just started watching this morning. Rose Zhang drove the green on the par 4 1st then sank the putt for eagle to win the hole.

But other than that, I'm cheering for the Euros.

Beautiful course, and I like the 2 very drivable par 4s. Makes for some exciting match play.

Euros had a disastrous start yesterday morning going down 4-0. Much better play since then brings it to an 8-8 tie going into singles play on Sunday.

I love this format, and the rah-rah-rah is toned down a bit this year which makes it better to watch.

Americans might be more rested, if that matters. Great matchups tomorrow. D Kang just irks me. Not sure why other than she thinks highly of herself. I don't really care who wins but some drama would be good.

Nelly's putter is playing for Europe....

I see the Euros are clawing back into contention. Let's be real if Lexi needs to get a point for the Yanks to win I'm feeling awfully good about Team Europe.

So Team Europe retains the Cup , very happy with this.

Was a highly competitive SC and while I only got to watch a bit prior to today, pretty fun.

Roller coaster. In the end Hedwall's putting and Ciganda's approach shots on 16 and 17 did the job. Some good shot making and some bad, which TV didn't show. For me two things I take away: a tie doesn't mean a win and the announcers were terrible.

great day of golf - got up at 5:00am to watch and I wasn't disappointed - and we get to watch the Leafs tonight

the announcers were terrible.

They were that, brutal.
I guess it could have been worse, thankfully Pressel was a vice captain and not in the booth

The whole broadcast was awful. I started watching before golf we’d see the first tee shots on the first hole then that was it. Apparently they didn’t shoe any shots of the Corpuz\Stark match. Like a lot of people have said if you want to grow the women’s game broadcasts have to be better.

Overall it was a great Solheim Cup competitive, big swings from morning to afternoon match’s good shots to shanks. It was great from what I got to see.

Leafs didn't do much better today....

That was one of the more enjoyable Solheim's for me.

Now the the excessive and annoying Christina Kim is no longer playing, I found I didn't hate the US team nearly as much. In fact, there are plenty that I like and wanted to see do well: Nelly, Rose, Danielle, Ally, Cheyenne... all quite likable. I was even cheering for Lexi who needs to see some good golf come her way, and clawed her way back after a tough start (and then tried to give it all back). Kupcho can go suck a lemon.

I'm still cheering for Europe, mostly because they're so much less annoying than the Yanks. They also seem to have way more fun and real competitive spirit, not just a bunch of pompom fluffers. Was disappointed in Hull and Hall today, things did not go their way. Loved Hedwall's comeback (and felt sorry for Ewing). Great couple of days for Ciganta on home soil. Leona Maguire was spectacular. I'm always surprised to find that Linn Grant is Swedish, given her name and dark hair.

And now..... bring on the Ryder Cup!!!
