Access to tomorrows matches will be restricted to those with a season pass for all days or Sunday passes. This has caused some upset amongst the fans who endured 7 hours of rain on Friday to see only a very limited amount of Ryder Cup action…

The US team are in the lead on the course but its too early to say anyingthing much yet…
The US team’s wet weather gear failed to perform, which must be an embarressment to sponsor Sun Mountain. The team abandoned the Sun Mountain waterproofs in favour of replacement jackets and pants from the on-course merchandising shop…
