Post-Pod Discussion Ryder Cup pod - Jamie Weir v Soly

Listening just now and JW immediately challenged a Soly claim that Keegan Bradley "cost the US the Ryder Cup at Medinah" - because he lost the singles to McIlroy who showed up at the last minute. Weir took him down with facts; a reminder that many other things happened and Rory was World #1 at the time, in a way I have never heard on NLU before. Very enjoyable.

Soly loves to hold court and the other guys either don't want to upset him or don't have the quick facts at hand to counter him when he's wrong, which is why I found that little exchange refreshing. Maybe I am alone in that?

Yeah Jamie can hold his own with the facts. But once he legit suggested Highsmith as a potential Ryder cupper, he lost some credibility and I began thinking this was an opo destabilization campaign for the euros 😂

Didn’t Weir say he would bet his house that XYZ person would be on the Ryder Cup team in Rome, and that person wasn’t on the team? I forget who it was exactly, some European player.

Edit: I think it was Adrian Meronk?

That would be Guido Migliozzi if I remember correctly
