2012 the RC is at Medinah Country Club.

What an event. 8 hour delay on Friday was awful. US did well to get a first session lead.

The Saturday was another great day for team america and it looked bleak.

Sunday however was all about team Europe! What a great day and what a session. 5.5 points from 6! Incredible and what made it even more special wa sthat every member of the team contributed - including the controversial pick of HArrington!

Monday was set up perfectly and I barely left my chair all day. At one stage it was looking like a cake walk but team USA threw away the script and some incredible golf was played.

The mechanic rolled his ass on the practice ground, then rolled away the years for a brilliant victory over Bubba.

Tiger reminded everyone that he still is the greatest player to ever pick up sticks, 9 under for 15 holes? I think Molinari did well to stay out that long! The only shame of it was Stevie wandering around like a lost tourist because he refused to wear a caddy bib.

When Ricky Fowler showed why he was worth his woldcard by birdieing the last 4 holes to snatch a half, it came down to our wee mon from Ulster. G-mac has had an ad running in the build up to the Ryder Cup where he states that winners are made when no one is watching and legends are made when the world is watching. G-mac had the golfing world watching when he holed that putt on 16 for birdie and the chance to win back the RC for Europe.

Hunter may have made it easier for him on 17 than anyone might have wished, but I have no doubt that if he'd needed to, G-mac would have rolled in the putt.

A great cup, a great win for Europe and as usual, respect to the losing team who maintained their dignity.

All hail field marshall Montgomery!!!!!!!!!
