Just catching up with the Sky coverage, as Garcia’s stood on the tee box on the 1st hole for his singles match you can clearly hear all the Americans singing you’ll never walk alone? FFS where’s that come from?

Really? Didn't hear that myself and don't think enough people over here know the song for it to happen.
 
American golfers really are the pits man, the worst type of sportsmen....if you can even call them that.

Thomas, Koepka and DeChambeau - the worst of the lot.

Are they better golfers than what Europe has to offer at the moment, yes.....did they deserve to win....yes.....but really, they should be ashamed of their behavior.

Yes he did, it was a much-discussed topic on the range beforehand given that he’d swept the NCAA and US Amateur already that year with single-length irons in the bag. Hossler also managed a top-30 finish at the US Open aged just 17 in 2012 (after having led at the Friday cut) and looked a level above DeChambeau - much friendlier guy as well

Iirc he was leading the US Open at one point. Friday or Saturday, I think

Thomas and Koepka are sound.

Got to be honest I hated the coverage because every time you heard a cheer you knew America had won another hole somewhere else on the course lol

There was a bit during some great play when they broke away to interview an NBA Basketball player and I'm like wtf, get back to the bloody golf!

I hated it when the American fans cheered poor, or even unlucky shots from the Europeans. I know you want your opponent to stuff
up, but it's bad form to cheer it.

Are you sure they weren't European fans? That song is sung at other clubs in Europe, not just at Liverpool.

Yep, shouts of "get out of bounds" and "get in the bunker" was embarrassing. TBF though, I'm not sure on numbers on all the days but they were nowhere near as intimidating and vociferous as we've had in the past

When Morikawa got the half to confirm the win there were cheers but not to the level I'd have expected.

Looking forward to the next one already, it'll be a lot more competitive as apart from Saturday afternoon where Lowry took it upon himself to be really vocal and pumped up, it was a weak, timid effort by the European team with too many players looking like rabbits caught in the headlights.
