Larry Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 Massive result that for the Yanks, getting a half from Westwood/Kaymer. Last two matches are crucial now, Europe need to at least win one or half both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Mighty Thor Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 McDowell blew the 16th. Tried a ridiculous shot when the yanks were in the crap and lost the hole. EDIT: Although he's just stiffed it in on 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larry Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 Great Putt by Cink. Yanks guaranteed to be leading going into the 3rd session. Set up for a great Sunday as long as the US don't build any big leads in the next couple of hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kitster Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 How would one go about getting 3 days worth of tickets for such an event? Hmmmm... Good question! Since I've never been in the position to be able to go I'll need to research that further. By hook or by crook, I will be there!! I'd imagine if you've got the cash it shouldn't be too hard. Have a funny feeling that will be my holiday that year!! I'd love to do it really properly, staying at the hotel etc. That would be bliss!!!!!

Walter Bishop Posted October 2, 2010 Author Share Posted October 2, 2010 Really? God!! How depressing What about hospitality packages? Would you need to re-mortgage the house for one? Im sure the cost of tickets were around ?40 for practice days and ?60 for competition days, no idea what hospitality prices were.

Had a wee nose around the net, looks like you are talking 1-1.5k for a pampered day out in hospitality! Ouch! It's at times like these you wish you hadn't lost touch with your old flat mate sigh.

Only time golf gets really tribal and the crowds are singing like they would on the terraces! I love it so much! Gleneagles in 2014? Try and stop me! Don't do it corporate then. The cost of a premier corporate package (for 1 day's practice plus 3 days of competition at Celtic Manor) for 50 guests was ?260,000, which equates to ?5,200 per head (although that was all in, including food and drink, although champagne was costed as an extra). There was a cheaper option which was available at ?4,400 per head if the premier didn't 't tickle your fancy. I would imagine corporate facilities at Gleneagles will be a tad more expensive.

True been to an open practice round before, but the Ryder Cup? It's all about Friday to Sunday. Oh and PJ1 I had a look on the celtic manor site it's 1k to 1500k doing it individually depending on day. Looks like I'll be slumming the ballot unless I win the lottery. As much as I could probably do it, ffs that's a heck of a lot just for a day of golf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
portobellojambo1 Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 Mr Wikipedia Not quite, had a squint on the official website. What surprised me was all the corporate packages were priced at similarly crazy prices but al had been sold out forever and a day (although I assume it is probably something that people might save up for over the period of 4 years from the last time it was here to spread the cost).

CF11JamTart Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 Tommorow is going to be great. Anyone know what the weather forecast is? 'king dreadful apparently. Heavy rain tonight and tomorrow morning. With light rain in the afternoon. Could be worse... on the local weather on Friday evening, they were talking about lightening on Sunday. Fortunately, that sort of crazy talk has stopped. I work in Newport, and the weather yesterday was the worst in years. Apparently the rainfall for the month of October is about 8% above the national average, and they had over a third of October's amount of rain in about twelve hours yesterday.
