    Unlucky, Steve, but that 62 should get you some points... Yes, Tess, it´s the same links.

    Hmmm i just noticed an interesting fact already,66 gained me 1,7 points in World team but would have gained me 8 points in American team,Wonder if we are seeing already the strength of this years World Team,:)

    Tess --- If you remember right ... I predicted the US team will have a very hard time repeating.   The captains voting process shows something similar.

    Also notice some names missing you would have expected on the board.

    After this month I think you'll agree ... world team is currently a 2 / 1 favorite.

    We´ve heard all that rubbish before, Lou, we´ve learnt not to trust americans :)

    There are plenty of excellent players at the top of the team world leaderboard but there´s also plenty of inexperience, the question is whether they perform when the pressure moments come...

    Airborne -- I know the 3 guys you mentioned quite well.   They won't cut it against the World team.   We need more firepower ... and the US players just are not coming out en masse in the early qualifiers.   I mean .. less than 30 folks entered a qualifying round ?  

    Seve - as you know - I've watched this for 2 years ... i just don't see the US team as excited about this years event as I have in the past.  

    Where's Bollox, Ahudd, Werksux, Cyl6, TugboatDoug, Carlos, Craiger, or Price, .. I could go on and on and on.    The US team is not getting out the vote !!!!!

    I hope I'm wrong but ... I sense the 1 on 1 rounds will be anti climactic this year.   This match will virtually be over (no pun intended) after the 4 ball and Alt shot rounds.

    stevenharkin:

    ahh i didnt realize both scores on kiawah counted this month, i thought it was one or the other so after 4 holes and 2 under i thought i'd give the other monthly a shot instead..silly me..could me costly !!

    Wish I would have read your post first Steven before I pulled out of one, for I thought the same that only one would count for the month. silly me. Posted a 64 in the Kia monthly, but not that I have much of a chance of getting in, but I will not give up for i am determined. I do agree that the world team has quite a few veteran players, but I will never count out USA. I'm not new to wgt but I am pretty new too the forum or I just don't post much. Anyway I want to wish everyone the best of luck and hope to tee it up some time with everyone. :)

    I only want to tell that in MP games all can happend . One player could be favourite but you can lost with any player. You could see Hustle games, Bollox win it three times but he win a lot of matches 1 up (last game he  beats 1 up in extra holes with a tourmaster). 

    I lost a game with you Lou!!!!! Maybe if you and me play 10 games, i could win more than you, but in one......... USA players that will qualify  to Ryder will be a very good players tahn could hit a low scores. Thats the true, i dont think that Ryder will be easy for World Team, i only hope that , this year, Ryder could fly to us.
