Europe Wins the Ryder Cup


The time difference, coupled with crummy weather in Wales that screwed up the schedule, made it difficult to follow the Ryder Cup this year. However, the exciting finish today sure made for good TV viewing on a rainy Monday morning in Pittsburgh.

The Europeans hold off a furious comeback effort by the USA and win the Cup by a score of 14.5 to 13.5, and the outcome was in doubt until the 17th hole of the final match before Graeme McDowell closed out Hunter Mahan, 3 and 1. If you are a golfer, you really had to feel bad for Mahan when he flubbed that chip shot on 17.
