almost here now
americans at disadvantage again because valhalla is a course they have no overwhelming familiarity with compared to euros ( the euro venues for ryder cup are all regular courses on euro tour which the euros play yearly & know them like the back of their hand ) & resembles a euro course in being quite a wide open, bangers' course & you can score easily on it ( compared to other major courses ) - tiger tied with bob may last time at -18 with a few guys at ~ -12 & 2 - 3 rounds of 63 last time
americans needed to at least get something approaching a USOpen layout to give an edge to their usually straighter driving & better putting on fast, tricky greens - they won't get it here
americans are already 1 point down going into it...
