    It’ll be back to odd years like it was before 9/11. And change the Presidents Cup (not that many care).

    Just let me know when the one set for Bethpage Black (right now 2024) will be played. That’s the home-soil crowd I want to see.

    Ryder Cup without fans is pointless. It's an exhibition. The whole event is about fans. This is the right move.

    Like a lot of things, it wouldn't be the end of the world if it were played without fans. The RC has, IMHO, gone too far and become too us-vs.-them, too nationalistic, instead of a golf competition involving civil participants. I have no desire to go to the first tee on Friday morning and hang out with so many inebriated folks.

    I'm surprised I haven't seen or heard any PED rumors or skepticism about DeChambeau. Impossible to gain that much muscle in only a few months without chemical assistance. Impossible.

    We all watched Bonds, McGwire etc. balloon up like cartoon characters, then said we should have known all along but now we see how ridiculous the naysayers were. Well its here again and nobody is saying anything - again. When the next Victor Conte or Michele Ferrari surfaces and DeChambeau is exposed there will be outrage about it and revisionists will be blathering how they knew all along.

    Are we sure it's muscle and not just fat?

    It’s golf, you have people like @hondo who think the testing is full proof.

    How can the Tour test for PEDs while being soooo busy testing for the Covid and keeping everyone safe? Hey Nick Watney, just hang on the range while you're sick and we're waiting for this test to come back ...

    Yeah, I'm not holding my breath for the mainstream golf media to dig into this, even though DeChambeau's neck looks like it's about a foot in diameter. Instead we'll keep getting stories about ball go too far, courses rendered obsolete, "Bryson's the mad scientist of golf!" zzzzzzz.

    Koepka and Graeme McDowell both out of the Travelers because their caddies tested positive.

    Shit, I had "Koepka" and "tested positive" on my BINGO card but the judges ruled against me on this use case.

    Maybe we can get Koepka miced up while he’s at home.
