At the 9th I make it Europe 4 USA 8.

Opening matches going Europe's way with USAonly getting 1/2 out of top 4 games but the next 8 matches see USA getting 7.5 points.
Long way to go and a fair few games are close but it's looking good

Round up

In a fiercly contested final round USA held on for a dramatic victory!! The US held a slender 1pt lead going onto the final hole but Surprised sank a 30 foot put to tie the whole and clinch victory.
Team UK/Europe started brilliantly with captain murf leading the way, levelling the tie. Spinynorman and GM then pushed team UK into the lead for the first time since the tournie began and looked to be leading the team to a memorable come back an brilliant victory.
Mintman halted the slide, scooping their first 1/2 point in a six all draw with DrB. This began a US fightback that ultimately helped claim the crown. Forestfan started off the riot, leading the way for four straight wins, backed up by BigJonS, Bluenoseyparker and USA captain, ashers.
It looked like their would be one final twist when goldenballs and Stick nudged team UK back in front before Knulpuk heroically turned the tie back in USAs favour before Surprised valiantly held on, halving the 18th and securing a win for team USA in the first ever FISO goals Ryder Cup!!



Final score

UK/EUROPE 14.5 - 15.5 USA

Thanks all for participating (and predicting)

Apologies for being a little slow with updates. A culmination of bad snow and little internat time slighted halted proceedings. Think we'll giva this a run out again next season as i quite enjoyed it :D

Finally, apologies to team UK/Europe - i was truely shocking all the way through and didn't deserve my place in the team. I'm truely embarrassed for myself :oops:

In the last game you gave UK both 0.5's......even though 0.5 should be mine :(

I think it's only the commentary that gives that impression. Unless the scores aren't what are posted it was 6 all. :?

Fancy this, a controversy right at the end! :shock: :lol:

Sorry it should have read UK/Europe 0.5pt USA 0.5pt.

Scores were definitely 6-6 i'm afraid.

Final score

UK/EUROPE 14.5 - 15.5 USA


I was very nervous on the 18th. I was up at the turn but knowing a defeat in this would mean it was 15-15 added to the pressure. Watching the final putt go in for a half (using spiny's new putter) meant the celebrations could start

It was so easy that we all had time to go out on the lash celebrating our victory the night before the final round. It showed, with a poor 6-6 draw, but of course we won
8-)

Sorry team for letting you down. As captain I shall fall on my sword.

Sorry to The Ton - I did say I'd help on the scores but I was out yesterday then plain forgot - and of course many thanks for the game :D

(In defence of my captaincy they easily outscored us at the weekend but thanks to my pairing skills we came away 6-6)

That's the kind of fundemental ability that comes to the fore under pressure. Pun intended.

A great inaugral victory for the US of A - I hope the game returns soon - great fun - thanks TheTon.

USA USA USA USA (continues chant in charmless manner ad infintum. Loudly)

Good game, Ton. Nice theme, well run & good fun to watch.
Hopefully I'll get picked the next time ... I'm scouring the rust off my putter as I type ;-)
