Losing by a half point due to the injured player rules would be something. Bet that’d get changed by 2027

this has been an amazing comeback. I can't imagine if this thing ends up 14-14 and Europe retains the cup due to a medical forfeit. So weak.
I'm sick of listening to Paul McGinley saying how much character all the Euros have. So much character to get your a**es kicked all day, huh? I was hard on the Americans all week this week, but they've shown their pride today.

The Americans need to figure out how to be better teammates in pairings. That’s been their downfall for a while.
Good info! Still doesn't make it a good rule. I think that needs changed. Or get alternates or something? Nobody should be rewarded a half point for not showing up.
Yea, should be full point to the other team.
Some people still treat it as a gentlemen's game... not many NY fans unfortunately.
And nobody knows who would have won that last match... did you think McIlroy, Rahm, Fleetwood, and Rose would all lose today?
Or what if a golfer pulls out mid round with an injury. Is that automatically a halved match?
U.S. outscores Europe 8.5 to 3.5 in singles, and still loses by 2. Aberg was the only match winner for the Euros.
Just shows how stupid the rule is. If someone is up 5 holes after playing 5 holes, and the opponent medical forfeits.... I'm assuming they get a half point?
Or is that somehow... "different"?
Well it’s very clearly different since the match had started, but I don’t know what happens.
