I get to watch this all weekend without being interrupted by playing golf because of injury. 
USA 16.5 Internationals 13.5

I fear that the absence of the LIV players will make it more competitive but more boring this year.

I think you are right.  There are some good Int'l players that I think will surprise the USA team, but I still picked USA to win 16-14.  It's going to be close.

... Amen Kenny. It's golf and as we all know anything can happen in 18 holes. We even see unknowns at the top of the leaderboard at many majors but it all evens out over 4 days. Yet for one round anything is possible and why we really see the top players at the World Match Play like Justin Thomas lose to Luke List, Joaquin Niemann lose to Maverick McNealy, Louis Oosthuisen lose to Alex Noran and Sungjae Im lose to Seamus Powers. While I expect the US to win handily I expect some big upsets by the Internationals as well.

Yesterday was a very busy day and did not get on my computer and missed the deadline, my bad.  Good luck to everyone.  Guess I will just have to go with the Team Titleist TSR Experience on Monday, September 26th at Streamsong and make up my mind if I want to make the move after comparing them to with my TSis.  Guess I could use new hybrids.  I do love the Fujikura tour speeder shafts and do not see that they are offered.  Will see what they are offering and how they perform.

well looking at how this is going so far I hope it doesn't come down to the tiebreakers because I think the margin of victory for USA is going to be much higher than I originally thought.  Int'l team better get their stuff together if they want this to be interesting heading into the weekend

Great first day. Man I feel for Vito. He just keeps getting the band aid ripped off. I really hope the international team can get some momentum. Really pulling for Adam Scott to get it together and for max Homa to have a coming out party

I watched a story a few nights ago on TGC about Camilo and the loss of his daughter in 2020 at 22 months.  Very very sad.  I didn't notice him at the Matches today, but I'm pulling for his comeback.

Did anyone see/hear what happened on JT's tee shot on the 169y par 3?  It went straight, but only went 127y.  😱  Spieth hit the 40y second shot to 2 feet to save par.

... Yup, I pretty much compare myself to Justin Thomas all the time. Just nowhere near as long. Or as accurate. Or as consistent. Or score as low. But I do have the exact same Thomas fat 9 iron/wedge shot I hit several times a year!

And much like i do a few times a year, later he added the 95% shanked bunker shot that crawled over the right lip and barely got onto the fringe!

I"m starting to relate to his game!  😂

AFTER JT fats the one off the tee, then nearly shanks another one out of the bunker.... 

My favorite clip of the day..... Jordan asks Justin if they should give a 3 footer to Im/Conners....

Loved JT patting himself on the back (after Jordan's shot) basically saying he left the perfect leave for his partner! 😂

It's a lot easier to have fun when you have a big points lead and the opponents aren't really pushing you that hard.  Stress comes when the score is close and you know that the shot you are about to make could be the difference between winning and losing.

Yeah, those smiles would disappear if they get down 2 holes with 3 to play.

2 points for a match win per player, and one point for a tie.  So if you have both JT and Jordan Speith as your picks for example... they have won both their matches, so you would get 8 points total, 2 each for each match.
