Subject: Slow start in the Ryder Cup (no mention of scores!)
|
I was listening to the start of the Ryder Cup on the way into work this
morning and the BBC commentators were remarking on how long Jim Furyk
was taking over his putts (helped by lots of discussions with Tiger).
By the 4th hole, the following match was being held up.
Just seen on the BBC website that the match has been warned about slow
play. I've never heard of this in matchplay. I can't imagine that they
could penalise anyone.

Harrington is pretty slow, so he's unlikely to complain. He's out in
the first match in the afternoon, so he'll have a quick lunch.
The first fourball match took 5 1/2 hours!

They should penalize Tiger and Fury for slow play/ unfair gamesmanship.
Anyway, it=B4s the best possible start for the US team, Tiger getting
into the stride and looking more and more ominous. F
