    That was great !! Loved seeing the Irish guys and then all the singing from their cheering group !!

    Looks like the Europeans have this one locked up pretty well !!

    Last time it was on US soil, Europe led 10-6 at this stage and went on to lose. granted, it was down to bad sportsmanship and an abusive crowd but the scores always end up close - the US tends to do better in the individual matches (except against "Monty")

    Oooh, US up in 7 matches in the last 12, all-square in 4 and Europe up in 1

    Nail biting stuff !!

    YAY !

    Garcia is making some amazing putts, he's just squared his match against Mickelson.

    (watch his putt yesterday, unbelievable)

    Now, US up in 5, Europe up in 3 and a/s in 4

    (remember, Europe need to win 3 matches to retain the trophy and 3.5 to win it 'outright')

    Sergio Garcia has gone from 2 down to 1 up in 3 holes. What a turnaround !

    And the biggets margin for the Europeans? Who else ... but Monty !

    Ooh !

    US up in 5, Europe up in 5, all-square in 2

    ... but Love could post a point soon and Woods shortly after to give the US some momentum and put pressure on the Europeans.

    US up in 5 still but Europe now up in the other 7

    US has posted the first 2 points from the singles matches:

    Woods won 2 and 3 against Casey
    Furyk won 6 and 4 against Howell

    So, 7-11 now.

    The big US players are doing it in the singles, will it be enough?

    Yay !

    Garcia wins his first Ryder-cup singles match against Nickelson and posts the first point for Europe in the singles.

    He's sunk some fantastic putts.

    Mickelson has some explaining to do with his club-switching the week before such a major tournament !!

    7-12
