Hello and welcome to the results the final day of the Ryder Cup that took place in Bethpage New York.The famous singles matches took place yesterday and what we thought would be a procession for the Europeans was anything but as they struggled in the end to win against the Americans who fought back to 15-13 which was a very respectable result in the end. Now there was a bit of controversary also as Victor Hovland injured his neck celebrating his win in the foursomes on Saturday. Tyrell Hatton took his place in the fourball but unfortunately it ruled him out completely for the final day of the competition. I asked the question to a golf nerd friend on Saturday night. Do Europe just lose the points now? No was the answer. Each country gets a half and the American meant to play Hovland has the day off. I think this will be a point of contention for the Americans. The Americans won 6 of their singles. A record for a final day. They also tied 5. The Europeans had only 1 win which was Ludwig Aberg against Patrick Cantlay. The Europeans looked drained on the final day from the tension and the abuse they received throughout the weekend which was terrible really. Granted the Americans get some abuse when they come to European but it was never this personel.

Ranking Final Day

Summary

Absolutely sensational final day and this means the charts have toppled on their head. The key to this game was getting the winning team right and 3 unlucky souls backed the US of A. @niallon11 who has ties to Trump Doonbeg so he was forced to go with America. @tortangkahoy who has an American wife or girlfriend and the one more.....
I have never seen a Scots man fall as much since my last watching of Braveheart. I had to rub my eyes to make sure he had the USA to win , the turncoat. Go get yourself an Iron bru and have a chat to yourself @tengolotodo 😜 . Even if @tengolotodo went for Europe it would have been the same result anyway because he only would have gotten 38 points so at least this is a consolation. But well played @tengolotodo . If America did pull it off you would have cleaned up.
So with the top ranked player from day 2 going with America the writing was on the wall for him. Although @tortangkahoy had an immense day 3 it just wasn't enough. @blanchy (the legend and a tidy golfer) surged into second place but @hotdogsensei was Mr Consistent over the weekend with a 12, 8 and 12 scores. With Europe winning he was well clear of the rest. Well done @hotdogsensei. 20 Hive goes to you. Sports mad @doombot75 was a close third as he surged from mediocracy into 3rd place with a 12 pointer on day 3. @bluerobo came in 4th with a great final day.
The two Galway men which is a known golfing county with golf courses everywhere you look finished last place. It is lucky the Tipperary man finished 2nd to save their blushs. The Hojgaard's of the group. Just filled in the numbers 😜. @ablaze started off with a double bogey by scanning the competition post and giving me the 6 names from Tier 1 , 2 and 3 forgetting about tier 4 , 5 and 6. It is the equivalent to a scorecard not signed after winning a major or an extra golf club being in the bag leading to disqualification. But he did not finish last which is a surprise. The two Galway men can fight it out around the late entries from @ablaze to get him over the line on the final day. It is the equivalent to leaving someone off with a 6 footer there @niallon11.

Thanks for everyone that has taken part in the contest.

Next Contest

I will do the next golf contest at major time. The gist of it will be the following

The winner will be the lowest total of the 3 scores.
If one of your players misses the cut you are eliminated.
