Nice! Thanks!
Golf is about the only sport I still watch.
Goes to show you how far to the left Dems have moved that the National Anthem is now a political issue/statement.
WOW!!!! Fantastic!!!
even the english announcer said “this is lovely to see!”
Can anyone explain to me how this match play thing works. After that maybe someone can explain offsides in soccer.
.
The NFL is a shame!
.
One of the tweets stated that this is done every time the USA hosts after the first group gets through hole 1. Anyone know if this is true?
.
Soccer is not a sport!
It is an indoctrination program to teach our kids to respect illegitimate authority, and encourage fraudulent gambling.
America has no need for soccer.
That was a tear-jerking moment! Awesome!
deplorables!

Match play is played as an individual game per hole (18 games per round) with the winner being the player that wins the most holes. Think of it as a “tour de golf”. The Ryder cup is four different formats within the tournament, again think “tour de golf” . Individual match play matches are not scored by total strokes (PGA style) they are stroke play per hole but scored in the following manner- if I win the first hole I am “1 up”, win second hole “2 up” if we are tied “even” etc. on the last nine holes the score will be 2 up with 3 to play or “2 and 3”. Once you are closed out “2 up with 1 to play” the match is over.
Offsides is very simple, Gentlemen do not take unfair advantage of their opponents. In American football I may not cross the line of scrimmage until the ball is put into play (snapped). In soccer since the ball is continuously in play and very fluid, I may not “sneak behind your last defender until the ball is played to give you a fair opportunity to defend me.
American football I sneak behind you and catch the ball = Touchdown, good!
Soccer I sneak behind you and you kick me the ball = unfair advantage, bad! Offsides!

Men’s voices!!!
siren song - the enticing appeal of something alluring but potentially dangerous; “she succumbed to the siren call of the men singing the National Anthem”
college educated people watch golf...hum.....wonder if this tells us something.
Minnesota Deplorables ;>)
Yeah. That was great. Rory is not my favorite.
