I donโ€™t know the situation but clearly he wasnโ€™t okay to play. All of this kind of goes against the spirit of the game. If Viktor was so bad off should he be playing so soon now? Thatโ€™s the problem with the rule. It leaves open these kind of nefarious thoughts

Well a toe injury on the morning of the competition with a one point difference was also controversial. It meant Wadkins - who volunteered - sat out when he was supposed to play Seve.. who ended up losing

Tiger Woods Announces Another Back Surgery Woods said on social media that he had lumbar disc replacement surgery on Friday. It is the seventh back surgery of his career.

A seventh back surgery for Tiger. This one in the area above the spinal fusion which led to his 2019 Masters win. Disk replacement is typically a 3 month recovery

A Tiger Woods Ryder Cup Captaincy Is Complicated Woods's stalling in 2024 led to Keegan Bradley getting the job at Bethpage. Bob Harig explores whether a different outcome is possible for the 2027 Ryder Cup.

If you turn those 2 ties into wins and 2 of the losses into ties, the U.S. wins. And that is no more speculative than guessing someone not picked would have done better

Sorry but Bhatia had no business being picked and Gotterup had 2 good links weeks. The matchups were all wrong? What guarantee is there anything else would have mattered? Scheffler went 0-4 in teams. Bryson 1-3. The top 4 players scheffler, Bryson, JT and Xander were a combined 7-10-2.

Ryder Cup Second-Guessing Is Only Beginning, but Itโ€™s Not All on Keegan Bradley Despite the furious Sunday rally, the Ryder Cup was essentially lost before that, for a number of reasons that start with the U.S. captain but don't end there.

Plenty of second guessing to go around. And itโ€™s not all on Keegan.

Scottie Schefflerโ€™s Baffling Ryder Cup Defied the High Expectations Put Upon Him As it turned out, the U.S. lost this Ryder Cup by two points with the world No. 1 finishing with a 1โ€“4 record, but no one is taking it harder than Scheffler.

It was a tough Ryder Cup for Scottie Scheffler

Between the Score and the Fans, Ryder Cup Saturday Saw Plenty of Ugliness The Americans saw their Ryder Cup deficit stretch to an insurmountable seven points and the only question for Sunday is if the fans can be civil during singles.

Ugly fan behavior and ugly American golfโ€ฆ and Europe thrives through it all.

Morikawaโ€™s stats among the worst of those picked. Poor short game. Didnโ€™t contend much. Still elite when it comes to approach and it would have been wild to leave him off. But it did seem possible
