This is why Poulter is in the team. Who else gets the crowd going like that?

[SpeckledJim]

Step aside lads, let the big dog eat.

[Digger]

As they were saying last night, why does any match with Ricky Fowler bother going out, another A/S match.

[johnfm]

Dubuisson is playing bloody well.

[hornetrider]

Can't fathom why Rose and Stenson have been split up. Stupid.

Stenson has a back injury. Looking after it for the singles.

Yes, this. The Captain spoke to him yesterday on the 17th and his back was still tight.... so it was decided to rest him.

Is Rory becoming the new Tiger? Brilliant in stroke play, rubbish at match play?.

no

Justin Rose.... superb.

10-6 going into the final day doesn't tell the story of the quality of the play or how close the matches have been for the most part.

Ah fair enough. Superb performance from Rose today. Yanks need a miracle.

As we did 2 years ago.
No room for complacency tomorrow, we need to keep our foot flat to the floor and crush them.

Yes, quite. The Kaymer/Rose match was a case in point. Amazed Rose made that putt - huge pressure to get a half. I REALLY don't know how these guys do it.

[DuncanM]

I think Rose is going to be a late(ish bloomer and go on to win multiple Majors

He has a great swing, and a fantastic all round game, what a player he is.

Tomorrow will still be super tough imo, no lead can be taken for granted as proven last time!

[SpeckledJim]

Rose and Dubuisson, heroes of the morning and afternoon, respectively.

Mr McIlroy didn't do badly.

[Leithen]

I'm not writing off USA's chances yet. Too much class. Win half the matches tomorrow plus two more and a half... It's been done before....
