Ryder Cup - Mini competition

[polarbear]

I created this mini comp for Last Man Standing, but I thought it would be good to let everyone else have the opportunity to take part.

No prizes - just a bit of fun:

Simply provide answers to the questions below:

1. Which team will win / retain the Ryder Cup? (5 pts)
2. What will be the winning margin? (10 pts - closest 5 pts)
3. How many points will Tiger Woods Contribute? (10 pts - closest 5 pts)
4. How many points will Ian Poulter Contribute? (10 pts - closest 5 pts)
5. How many foursome matches will team USA win? (10 pts - closest 5 pts)
6. How many fourball matches will team EUROPE win? (10 pts - closest 5 pts)
7. How many of the singles matches will be halved? (10 pts - closest 5 pts)

LMS players need not post, I will just add your anwsers to this thread as well.

I assume you are giving a full point to both in 4somes\balls? It's a bug bear of mine that they should get half each so totalling scores equalsthe real score.

Yes, as part of a pair they will have contributed to a win loss or half, therefore get a full point or half point.

Just to clarify - The winning margin in Q2 relates to both teams.
For example if you pick a winning margin of 2 points, a final score of 15-13 or 13-15 will earn you 10 points.

The first tee off time is 8.10 GMT and is also the deadline for entries

Apologies, time above was for Paris. Tee off time in the UK is 7.10am

It is still wrong

Team gets 1 point, so half each for the 2 players, and a while point for the Singles.

Any clues etc from the 4Balls, Europe should have gone for 4Somes first.....
