Happy Fathers Day to all the Dads out there
I played in the morning and it was nice. We got to 10 under.

Lol! It’s Open time SlickVic! Who do you have boosting the Claret Jug in 2019?!? Tiger? DeChambeau? Rory? Hopefully it’s another great one for the record books! Would be pretty sweet to see Tiger pick up his 16th major here! https://www.theopen.com/leaderboard
Tiger goes out today at 09:10 Central time!

I agree. Lots of missed putts in pressure situations. In the end though, the best of these 2 teams would get stomped by South Korea.

Indeed dufferole. South Korea would probably stomp a team composed of the all stars from the USA AND EUROPE AND from every nook on the planet other than South Korea all put together. UNLESS of course said all star team was also allowed to field Carson Wentz, Grant Olson, SlickVic, and DITKA!
GoAmy! GoCarson tonight!! GoBison!!!

Well, they’ve played in three additions of the International Crown and won once. The other winners, USA and Spain, so there’s that. But, yes, few would dispute that South Korea is the top women’s golfing nation.

There were 4 other players who made the team on merit that contributed either less outright in, the case of Pressel, or the same number of team points.
When, I saw the singles line up, my first thought was, “Inkster has put it all on herself with those two going out in the last two games.”
That was a tremendous afternoon of golf. Only 3 matches didn’t go to at least the 17th hole and it was basically 14 up give or take a point the whole back 9.

The I Crown has 4 golfers per team vs Solhiem 12 players per team. 12 top S Korean players would be hard to beat.

Well said dufferole. On a quick glance, 8 of the top 20 in the world and 20 of the top 50 call South Korea home, not counting the Korean expats to the USA and Australia and others. Pretty cut and dried. Even with just four players competing in a format that allows lesser players a better shot, they have finished 1-2-3 in their efforts at the International. Nobody else has had a combined record close to that.

Re: Masters Golf and Any Other Miscellaneous Golf Discussion
I am disappointed in the final outcome, but it was a closely fought 3 days. Good televised theater. I just wish the American golfers were better putters in all tournaments.

I hate to say it dufferole, but without Amy playing I barely even watched the highlights. And I actually was pretty pleased to see recent first time mother Suzanne Pettersen drain the winning putt (on a video replay of course).

I think we're all basically in agreement, South Korea #1. Not sure what expats have to do with anything, but other than that...

I don’t think most of us had any question about that. You might say that the fact that along with the obvious huge domination by those still under the banner of South Korea, many of the very best US, Australian, and New Zealand golfers (along with other countries) also hail from South Korea and possibly would choose to compete for that country in an international competition if they wanted to and the rules allowed it. Do the names Minjee Lee or Lydia Ko or Danielle Kang ring a bell? And they are just the tip of the expat iceberg. Just a little further emphasis on just how strong and dominant women’s golf is in that country. Come to think of it, I have no doubt that a team composed solely of South Korean expats would donkey stomp anyone other than South Korea.

I guess my take is. 1) people are generally from where they're from. Lydia Ko is from New Zealand and no one would think twice about that if her parents had moved there from Liverpool.
Also, I think huge domination is an overstatement. That's in a different category even than clear #1.

1. Don’t completely disagree with that. The obvious point was that South Korea has put together an amazing development program for girl’s and women’s golf that produces the best in the world at every level. That program, discipline, national pride, mentality, etc. is so excellent that they have produced amazing athletes and champions who compete not only for that country, but all over the world as well. And they are proud of their adopted countries and their home country both. As am I. Is there something wrong with that?
2. Yes it is a different category. The numbers are pretty tough to dispute however, and the proof is in the pudding. And it ain’t English pudding. https://www.rolexrankings.com/rankings

Lydia Ko has lived in New Zealand from age 2 and a ton of the Europeans played collegiate golf in the USso maybe we should be a little careful about who's developing whom.
I wonder how it would go over if the Korda sisters decided to play for Europe on 2 years? Jessica played for Checz Replubic at least once as an amature so she's already switched allegiance once.

I think it would be just fine for the Kordas to compete for the nation they want to compete for. Don’t see a thing wrong with that, and after this showing by the US team, couldn’t blame them for jumping ship. Frankly, never have cared much for team golf at the professional level in any case. And actually the men’s even more so than the women’s “team” competitions. I find it pretty lame and contrived. How much “Olay Olay olay Olay” can you take? JMO.
