00:00once the greens finally got to a speed that was actually what they requested which was like around

00:0612 and a half i think is what the americans wanted it uh it got that on sunday you could

00:10see the ball starting to creep away a little bit and unshockingly the americans played better they

00:15outplayed the europeans on sunday and i think a little bit of that has to do with uh the speed

00:20of the greens but also i think uh luke donald rightfully so played his guys you know 30 most

00:26of the guys didn't sit you know when it yeah when it came to playing uh throughout the entire time

00:31because uh once you once you get a lead like that especially in a way lead he he definitely decided

00:37not to to to throw out his depth he's like you know what i'm just gonna keep sending my guys out there

00:42and i think that was a big difference on sunday uh as we kind of closed up this rider cup talk was

00:46that yeah it felt like the americans were hungrier on sunday they were were better rested uh for the

00:53most part and the they're the players who had not played well like scotty sheffler uh who had not

00:58won they were motivated to win and when you have those guys winning their matches cam young winning

01:03their matches and and europe kind of front loading it was like okay now you got all these guys back

01:07here who hadn't played as much for europe that somehow got to win some points and um they almost

01:13did it man it's crazy i mean i still am stunned and captivated by just standing there i'm trying to

01:19remember the order of guys that i watched come in i think it was jt bryson and scotty and there was
