  SilentOmegaWolf:

  to the three guys I'm playing with my Aunt just called and I have to meet up with her and a few other family members today.  She lives a few hours away so I'm not sure when I'll be back, so I'm sorry if I dont get back in time.

  Real life can be a kick in the teeth sometimes.   By the sounds of it the earliest we'll be able to play maybe midnight UK time,  A bit late for us for a two hour match.

  I suggest we try and play it tomorrow evening same time, if that's ok with all concerned

  Just finished our worst ball match.....final was AS

  Sounds like another great match, full of pressure -- real Ryder Cup stuff!

  Well played all of you, and thanks Jorg for sharing all the stats too. Looks like once again, the 1st, 3rd, and 5th holes were crucial to the outcome. Also, very intriguing to see no birdies on #8, a hole where in other matches everyone's had to birdie to avoid losing the hole.

  Overall score updated: Team ROW: 2.5 | Team USA 1.5

  ... and I'm guessing that another result is on its way soon!

  Sorry to hear about this snafu, and very much hope you can all commit to the same time for tomorrow evening...

  Your right Corwyn, I was surprised too, I believe we all had looks from 10 feet or closer just nobody converted.

  Corwyn, I've spoken with Wiger and Cyg,  they are ok with playing tomorrow.    Jon (silentomegawolf)  just needs to confirm.

  We finished our match and icon and kyrock thrashed us thoroughly. They played amazing and are top UEL players. 5 and 4 to the USA

  I had to use a different computer as i got stuck on office duty. Tried to get it right but had a crappy meter with my putter and had to try and figure out how to off ding putt. Did ok on the last 3 holes when it didn't count.

  I have the scorecard and stats saved but need  a bit more time to get them posted, as posting stuff in the forums is not my forte

  Congrats to them and Godd luck in the coming rounds

  Can't get it to size right but best i can do

  The three of us remaining were ready and raring to go so we thought,  "Sod it !" we grabbed another US player and played.   It doesn't count but we had a very enjoyable match, the score don't matter.    (ROW won)  but we had fun.

  Thanks Jon for sharing the card and all the stats. I knew you had one of the toughest draws, against perhaps the strongest US pairing (they are indeed 2 of the very best UEL players on WGT!), so no shame in the result at all. And so tough for you to have to play with an unfamiliar computer setup and crappy meter. That sounds painful!

  Had it been Best-Ball, it would have been only a 2&1 loss... it seems you were unlucky to both get different scores on almost every hole.

  So congratulations to Rock and Icon on their win, and now it's all square with one match in the Worst-Ball series to play:

  Any word yet from Jon (silentomegawolf) to confirm if this will work same time tomorrow?

  As a backup I'm looking through the availability info of the US alternates, as I want this game to get played at that time tomorrow if at all possible. It's not fair on the other three of you to be left waiting at the 1st tee!

  It doesn't fit with dougsda's time availability, but it looks as if it might with next alternate Dakotarov, who had 'possible' overlap at that time (his . I've PM'd him to see if he can be on stand-by.)

  Thanks, Corwyn
