but I will keep half an eye on the results as they come in.
This one will be close, I think. Unfortunately I think the USA! USA! USA! GET IN THE HOLE! MASHED POTATO! tossers will win.

However his brother's words were intended to be taken, the average knuckle dragging US golf fan will doubtless be looking to sledge him.
This could be as bad as the War on the Shore, the dark days of Corey 'Crazy' Pavin et al.
Shot of the Ryder Cup so far :
http://www.nydailynews.com/sports/more-sports/ryder-cup-heckler-sinks-putt-wins-100-dare-stenson-article-1.2811901
Several years ago I was working at Dublin airport and we were helping to build several new piers on the existing terminal and a new Terminal 2. My opposite number ran (the existing) Terminal 1.
This was the year that the Ryder Cup was held at at the K club- 2006 iirc. The VIP team reported in to my opposite number and they had hired in a fleet of black BMW limos to collect the US team and ferry them over to the VIP suite.
well it was a lovely Dublin summers day, and you guessed it, it was fecking horizontal rain and absolutely slashing down. The USA charter plane came to a halt on the apron and rather than decanting via an airbridge, a mobile stair was positioned next to the plane, the door opened and the worlds golfing press got ready for the photo shoot of the team on the stair.
Sure enough the front door opened and out came the USA team dressed in plus fours and jackets....all in a heavy tweed. Not a brolly in sight. So they came out rather begrudgingly and tried to take a quick photo call and get out of the rain.
The signal came to my oppo and he raised his Walkie talkie.
'Hold the limos, repeat, hold the limos' and gave a thumbs up and beamed at the yank. and the rain continued.
A minute or so passed and he got another signal. He shrugged as if to say 'dunno' and raised the Walkie talkie again.
'Hold the limos, repeat, hold the limos'
Still raining and the yanks are now soaked on the mobile steps.
Another couple of minutes pass and the yank gofer is now visibly furious. The golfers are drenched, kicking off and so finally my oppo finally calls in the limos. They are collected by the limos one by one and the tweeds have properly got water logged.
Several weeks later, and after a European victory, me and my oppo are having a pint and conversation turned to the Ryder cup and what a great victory it was. My oppo's response was priceless:
'oi'd loike ta think oi had a hand in it meself'
I almost showered him with Guinness mid swig.
I love the Ryder cup.
