:00:23. > :00:27.Welcome back to the Walker Cup. The 43rd playing of this team
:00:27. > :00:33.competition between some of the foremost amateurs in the world. You
:00:33. > :00:39.join us in the middle of a deluge here at royal Aberdeen lince and
:00:39. > :00:43.yes I am going nowhere without this thing. It is throwing it down,
:00:43. > :00:47.there has been a rumble of thunder and we are in the middle of the
:00:47. > :00:52.afternoon single's matches. Eight of them this afternoon. Now, it was
:00:52. > :00:56.Great Britain and Ireland who led going into this series by three
:00:56. > :00:58.points to one after the morning and all looked good. Let me remind you
:00:58. > :01:02.of the situation at the moment. Great Britain and Ireland up in
:01:02. > :01:08.four, this afternoon, they were down in two and it was all square
:01:08. > :01:11.in the other three matches, so it was fascinating, but right now,
:01:11. > :01:15.conditions have become ultra challenging you have to say, as we
:01:15. > :01:25.go through with many of the matches go through with many of the matches
:01:25. > :01:39.
:01:40. > :01:49.Some gutsy players in the bottom three games. James Byrne makes his
:01:50. > :01:53.
:01:54. > :01:58.So, it is wet, it is miserable, but there is plenty of passion out
:01:58. > :02:03.there. One wonders if they will be able to carry on. I heard a rumble
:02:03. > :02:10.of thunder. As yet no lightning. I haven't seen much of that. What do
:02:10. > :02:14.you think fellas in the commentary box? This surely, this has to be
:02:14. > :02:19.among the most challenging conditions we have faced over the
:02:19. > :02:22.last few months. I don't know. I think this is a bonnie day really
:02:22. > :02:25.think this is a bonnie day really on this coastline. I think you are
:02:26. > :02:33.exaggerating! I think the members will all be out on a day like this.
:02:33. > :02:38.But in fact, it is horrible. And I am not sure, I am almost as sure
:02:38. > :02:42.when the golf course is finished up the road, he has friends in high
:02:42. > :02:46.places and all this will stop and it will become the most wonderful
:02:46. > :02:51.place force, holiday homes, and that sort of thing. At the moment
:02:51. > :02:57.he has not slipped himself fully into position. I think the rain is
:02:57. > :03:01.starting to ease a whisker. It is a sandy soil, it will run through,
:03:01. > :03:07.but links courses have their tipping points where the water
:03:07. > :03:17.gathers. No sign of gathering water yet. No and Peter has this for a
:03:17. > :03:25.
:03:25. > :03:30.perhaps than the professional counterparts in the Ryder Cup.
:03:30. > :03:40.There is a bit of standing water there. It is beginning to pool a
:03:40. > :03:44.
:03:44. > :03:53.little bit. It really is, it isn't very nice, is it? It is chasing us
:03:53. > :03:59.round, the Scottish Open, that was a bit damp. I think is where that
:04:00. > :04:04.fellow Tolkien gets his ideas. Britain in the summer time. Ryder
:04:04. > :04:08.Cup. They all have their great moments of raining disaster. It
:04:08. > :04:15.seems to be easing a little for a second or two. It comes and it goes,
:04:15. > :04:22.and that is not going in. Well, yes, that is a five for Tom Lewis. A
:04:22. > :04:27.loss of the hole, he goes one down, and fortunately, the rain is just,
:04:27. > :04:34.well, I thought it was getting less but it is not. Horrible out here
:04:34. > :04:38.guys. You see the course, the back nine to the left, feeding down
:04:38. > :04:45.through the dunes and they come up on to slightly higher ground up
:04:45. > :04:48.here. This is the third match between Andy Sullivan and Harris
:04:48. > :04:54.English and Sullivan two up at the moment. You know who your friend
:04:54. > :05:00.are in weather like this. I find shelter una friendly forest
:05:00. > :05:04.umbrella. And mind you, the players, these players in the match seem to
:05:04. > :05:14.be just going along like on roller coasters, because they are
:05:14. > :05:24.
:05:24. > :05:31.you how difficult it is to stand up never mind produce golf of this
:05:31. > :05:35.calibre. Both he and Andy Sullivan pouring in the putts. Hiding under
:05:35. > :05:39.the umbrellas. He has won on the nationwide tour. He is one of the
:05:40. > :05:46.few players you could see in the top 0 in the world in the next five
:05:46. > :05:52.year, making that leap like Dustin Jonsson, like Web Simpson. There is
:05:52. > :05:58.a look at the state of affairs. The red numbers show the players are up.
:05:58. > :06:06.So Great Britain, Ireland up in four. And that one match between
:06:06. > :06:09.Steven Brown and Russell Henley from Georgia, all square. It is
:06:10. > :06:18.interesting how many good players have been produced by the Ryder Cup
:06:18. > :06:22.for the home side. If you look down McElroy, Rose, Dyson, Luke Donald.
:06:22. > :06:27.Graeme McDowell. Nick Doherty, a whole number of the last six or
:06:27. > :06:33.seven years. Suddenly it blows there, and well, anom say e-- not
:06:33. > :06:39.saying the sun is going to come out. It wouldn't surprise me if it
:06:39. > :06:44.doesn't come out in half an how. Here is the 15th hole. A bonnie one.
:06:44. > :06:48.This is nicely bunkered. Proper bunkers. It looks faz the green
:06:48. > :06:52.stuff on that top clatter, or it should be, but it is the green at
:06:52. > :07:02.the bottom here and the big bunker at the front, with the island in
:07:02. > :07:06.the middle. It looks simple enough. You see left and right, there is
:07:06. > :07:11.nasty thing clanging, clinging grass. You want to be on the
:07:11. > :07:16.fairway here. You do. Now the rain has stopped, the wind is going to
:07:16. > :07:21.dry us out. Blind tee shot. Guys can't see the fairway. TV tower, we
:07:21. > :07:26.take a line on that. There is a bunker at 230 yards to carry down
:07:26. > :07:36.the right hand side. Looking at the way the two guys hit it down the
:07:36. > :07:55.
:07:55. > :08:05.Brown. Welcome back. Thank goodness that rain has passed us by. That
:08:05. > :08:15.
:08:15. > :08:19.his heroics and St George, the way he played. A lot was made about the
:08:19. > :08:27.way he looks like a young professional already, in the way he
:08:27. > :08:30.carries himself. His swing. He is up against one of the best in Peter
:08:30. > :08:35.Uihlein today. And that, well it has shot into the face and come
:08:35. > :08:45.back a little bit. But soggy sand and not too far from the face, so
:08:45. > :08:57.
:08:57. > :09:06.that is almost a shot penalty there. Jordan Spieth, he is playing
:09:06. > :09:12.against. A splash down. Must be a puddle there. One of those little
:09:12. > :09:16.hollows perhaps. There was an evil cackle as he hit that, as if there
:09:16. > :09:25.was an old crone, laughing tat golfers as they walked past. There
:09:26. > :09:35.is a bit of water. It will drain away quickly. Then the next shower
:09:36. > :09:37.
:09:37. > :09:43.will come in! Beautiful piece of golfing land. Steven Brown, Russell
:09:43. > :09:47.Henley, match five. Both these players lost this morning so one of
:09:47. > :09:57.them being to get a point today and one isn't, unless of course they
:09:57. > :10:01.
:10:01. > :10:09.line. You are playing down breeze and come back from ten, right to
:10:09. > :10:18.the closing hole, theleth, back-in o the teeth of the breeze. There is
:10:18. > :10:22.Steven Brown. Late run to get into the team. Tiptoeing round the
:10:22. > :10:25.puddles. That is the state of all the matches at the moment. Great
:10:25. > :10:31.Britain and Ireland up in three. United States up in two and three
:10:31. > :10:41.matches are all square. Eight singles this afternoon, and the
:10:41. > :10:41.
:10:41. > :11:27.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 46 seconds
:11:27. > :11:32.four matches tomorrow morning, and old from port Stewart on the
:11:32. > :11:42.Northern Irish coast. Playing this to win the hole. He is three up on
:11:42. > :11:49.
:11:49. > :11:57.the US amateur champion, three up back-in to play. Shortish par four.
:11:58. > :12:02.Never easy to pick your line. And currently, he is one down Tom Lewis.
:12:02. > :12:07.I think this is a crunch match. If Tom can get something out of this
:12:07. > :12:12.it looks like the rest of the team will do reasonably well. 3-1 lead
:12:12. > :12:17.from this morning. Despite it being the first Match of the Day think it
:12:17. > :12:21.is a critical one in the overall results for today's play. Let us go
:12:21. > :12:28.back to the 11th. That should be Steven Brown, and Russell Henley
:12:28. > :12:38.and we saw him giving his putt a decent effort. Russell Henley
:12:38. > :12:51.
:12:51. > :12:58.missed his putt, so Brown, deep turns red in Great Britain-Fred
:12:58. > :13:01.Iredale land's favour. -- Great Britain-Ireland's favour. Michael
:13:01. > :13:11.Stuart is one up on Patrick Cantlay, the number one amateur in the world
:13:11. > :13:12.
:13:12. > :13:22.at the moment. Louis playing his third shot before his opponent
:13:22. > :13:22.
:13:22. > :14:09.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 46 seconds
:14:09. > :14:15.on this one. Sounded a good contact. Here it comes. Ooh! Excellently
:14:15. > :14:21.played. Unlucky it didn't have a bit of draw on it. Blemished his
:14:21. > :14:27.perfect record p the Walker Cup when he lost against Tom Lewis and
:14:27. > :14:30.Michael Stewart because he played in Meirion a couple of years ago. A
:14:30. > :14:40.reminder of the matches ticking along the bottom for you. The state
:14:40. > :15:02.
:15:02. > :15:06.three. So those who for pars what a funny situation at the end of this
:15:06. > :15:10.morn's play when he is not sure he won his match. His brother was
:15:11. > :15:20.caddying for him. He looked rattled. Very vaing that situation should
:15:20. > :15:23.have arisen but I think it was Britain-Ireland could consider
:15:23. > :15:28.themselves a little bit fortunate, but the Americans dealt with it
:15:28. > :15:32.very well. I think even did in the end, it is just, it is a silly rule
:15:32. > :15:42.and I think it, that will be the end of it. It will be swiftly
:15:42. > :16:22.
:16:22. > :16:27.removed. It has taken this to get this one, Andrew? This is a US
:16:27. > :16:35.Amateur re-match because he beat Jordan Spieth, and he has this putt.
:16:35. > :16:45.A lim shimmy to the hole. Absolutely need. He beated
:16:45. > :16:45.
:16:45. > :17:29.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 46 seconds
:17:29. > :17:39.sleethsleethsleeth in -- sleet particularly this back nine. Coming
:17:39. > :17:52.
:17:52. > :18:01.jack Senior. Jack Senior has won. United States are two up in the
:18:01. > :18:09.match. From three up with five to go, to two up with four to go. Just
:18:09. > :18:19.keeping Jordan Spieth honest. Jack Senior has a chance in this match.
:18:19. > :18:34.
:18:34. > :18:44.This is Nathan Smith. A great Nice birdie there at Number Ten.
:18:44. > :18:44.
:18:44. > :19:30.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 46 seconds
:19:30. > :19:40.James Byrne, this for a birdie, are treating us to a masterclass
:19:40. > :19:42.
:19:42. > :19:52.here, ten birdies between them. That is in these opening 13 holes.
:19:52. > :19:53.
:19:53. > :19:59.179 left for the American. Four Ian into this breeze. Sounded pretty
:19:59. > :20:09.sweet, over drawn into the breeze. That will test his nerve if that
:20:09. > :20:10.
:20:10. > :20:16.bunker is directly between him and the pin and, it is. Go to the 15th,
:20:16. > :20:25.jack Seenor launches one. He lost a few drives right this morning. Oh,
:20:25. > :20:31.he's got away with that. Misses the sand. Some patchy rough there.
:20:31. > :20:41.won't know where it's gone, it's over the crest of the hill. He's
:20:41. > :20:45.
:20:45. > :20:55.been fortunate there. Nick, his new caddy. 15Th, 376 yards over the
:20:55. > :21:15.
:21:15. > :21:25.crest of the hill. Fairly generous had a huge break too, a massive
:21:25. > :21:35.
:21:35. > :21:45.horrible for 20 minutes or so, the rain was thundering down, bleak
:21:45. > :21:45.
:21:45. > :22:32.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 46 seconds
:22:32. > :22:35.support? Absolutely. A couple of sales weren't too good. They were
:22:35. > :22:41.hoping spectators would come along and pay on the day at the gate. A
:22:41. > :22:44.good few have. Healthy looks crowds. Nathan Smith to win the hole, this
:22:44. > :22:54.to get back to all square. This would be back-to-back wins for
:22:54. > :23:24.
:23:24. > :23:29.breezes, always very awkward. huge slice of good fortune for
:23:29. > :23:34.Peter Uihlein here, finishing in between the two bunkers that guard
:23:34. > :23:44.the right hand side of the fairway. His playing partner came up well
:23:44. > :23:46.
:23:46. > :23:51.short. Six-iron here for bet Peter. Sorry, five-iron. He has to hit
:23:51. > :23:56.straight back into the breeze. For him, and the US team, right in the
:23:56. > :24:01.middle of the green is where he wants this ball. What sort of
:24:01. > :24:11.strength of breeze do you think it is, one club, two club breeze?
:24:11. > :24:37.
:24:37. > :24:43.away with that off the drive. A little punchy one. It's clinging on,
:24:43. > :24:53.as he is, in this match. We mentioned his caddy, having to
:24:53. > :24:53.
:24:53. > :25:02.change his caddy. Now, he's out with Alan Dunbar's man. The caddy
:25:02. > :25:12.played in the Cup against America. Not a bad man to replace holding
:25:12. > :25:31.
:25:31. > :25:41.the American, and to square the match. A little touch off the left
:25:41. > :26:14.
:26:14. > :26:20.these days, it keeps you warm. He's from just the fringe of the green
:26:20. > :26:25.first for his three. Tom Lewis is in the bunker. He's just down far
:26:25. > :26:35.enough in the bunker not to be bothered by the back lift of it too
:26:35. > :26:53.
:26:53. > :27:03.much. Advantage, certainly, to the fashion. Uihlein then, a long
:27:03. > :27:13.
:27:13. > :27:20.birdie putt. Still something there sometimes Nestles down in it. A bit
:27:20. > :27:28.of landing area for Tom Lewis. You can see the ball settling in the
:27:28. > :27:38.sand. It will come out lower with a bit of run on it. He has just got
:27:38. > :27:38.
:27:38. > :27:46.to pick it up quicker than he would normally do. A low skiddy, spinney
:27:46. > :27:56.one here, Ken. A pretty decent effort, just sitting down a
:27:56. > :27:57.
:27:57. > :28:02.fraction. But, perhaps, perhaps his time is coming to an end in this
:28:02. > :28:10.match. Uihlein seems to be closing it out. Again, the wind has dropped
:28:10. > :28:20.a little bit. This morning those were fluttering more vigorously.
:28:20. > :28:26.
:28:26. > :28:32.Kitesurfing in the background, jack seen or. Up here it looks like
:28:32. > :28:42.casual water. It, obviously, isn't worrying him very much at all.
:28:42. > :28:56.
:28:56. > :29:05.Shiny area to the left of the putt. break. He will be out in time to
:29:05. > :29:09.see Jack whip one by the hole. It's a difficult stage at this match,
:29:09. > :29:15.doing anything foolish it soon slips away. This is the top match,
:29:15. > :29:25.this has got to go in. Yes, left to right Peter, this is a must make
:29:25. > :29:35.
:29:35. > :29:40.as if he's going to lose this hole to a par. That is one of the
:29:40. > :29:50.Cardinal sins of golf at this level, more, particularly, I suppose in
:29:50. > :29:56.
:29:56. > :30:01.four ball in particular. This is to Peter was saying, there couldn't
:30:01. > :30:06.make enough pars on this back nine. Pars have been good enough to win
:30:06. > :30:16.holes, very difficult. Left-of- centre here for Peter for a three
:30:16. > :30:19.
:30:19. > :30:27.and two victory. Well, you see! United States five, Great brie brie
:30:27. > :30:37.5. -- Britain-Ireland 5. I wonder whether that will be costly, or
:30:37. > :30:48.
:30:48. > :30:56.not? Come on, Jack, this for a half. seem to be slipping away on this
:30:56. > :31:06.home ward nine. Not elementary mistakes, miskues and errors and
:31:06. > :31:12.untidy golf really.. Did I get a glimpse of the sun I think that was
:31:12. > :31:22.someone taking photos with a flash Ken. If you want a haing in weather
:31:22. > :31:22.
:31:22. > :31:27.hang round for tn -- ten minutes. Up the hill at the 11th. Certainly
:31:27. > :31:32.they are missing putt after putt at usual times, ken. Still a lot of
:31:32. > :31:42.golf to go before we shut up shop for tonight but it could look
:31:42. > :31:51.
:31:51. > :31:56.differently at close of play. Thank man Russell Henley. He was one down,
:31:56. > :32:03.he is now all square. Suddenly there is a bit of a surge from the
:32:03. > :32:08.US. So suddenly the picture is changing, Tom Lewis has had
:32:08. > :32:18.something of a reprise there, but is still two down, only two to play,
:32:18. > :32:35.
:32:35. > :32:41.best he can manage a half. Jack elevated tee. Back down into a
:32:41. > :32:51.right to left breeze. Two holes to go. Can he control the flight of
:32:51. > :32:59.
:32:59. > :33:09.and the shadows begin to appear. You don't have to wait long for
:33:09. > :33:15.
:33:15. > :33:19.day I think, or in an afternoon. Maybe even the last hour. Well,
:33:19. > :33:28.come on Tom, door open, just. That was a trifing shot from Peter
:33:28. > :33:38.Uihlein there, did what he had to do. 5-Iron also for Tom here.
:33:38. > :33:53.
:33:53. > :34:00.You'll you'll will put the pressure don't think he does like it. Very
:34:00. > :34:06.much. He turned it over and used the breeze so it is one of those
:34:06. > :34:14.double crossers and they always go long and left. Do complicate the
:34:14. > :34:24.game, Ken, perhaps I am living in the years of yesterday. You did it
:34:24. > :34:53.
:34:53. > :35:03.fortune, coming off the back. darn good standard of play. Sull
:35:03. > :35:14.
:35:14. > :35:24.vand and English playing wonderful be p control of this match. Two up
:35:24. > :35:30.
:35:30. > :35:38.after 11 holes. Kelly Kraft.. Good to see this course at its best.
:35:38. > :35:48.is a showy course with the expansive spectacular dunes. Jordan
:35:48. > :36:08.
:36:08. > :36:13.That will dry the course out. Tom Lewis is going to have to
:36:13. > :36:18.conjure up some magic. An aub ward shot he has, coming back up on to
:36:18. > :36:21.the green. Which is about six feet higher than where the ball is lying
:36:21. > :36:25.and everything is down hill from left to right down to the pin.
:36:25. > :36:35.Worse than that, Peter Uihlein two up, after a terrific shot into
:36:35. > :36:38.about 20 feet. So this has to go in the hole for Tom. Little staircase
:36:39. > :36:43.to come down. There are three levels. So he has three steps to
:36:43. > :36:53.come down and the pin on this, the narrowest part of the green. It
:36:53. > :37:03.
:37:03. > :37:13.show what is a fantastic tee shot far away. What a carker, he has
:37:13. > :37:20.
:37:20. > :37:24.putted beautifully today. -- a with a bit of pace. Try and get it
:37:24. > :37:30.bouncing and then skipping maybe down on to the middle tyre with a
:37:30. > :37:38.bit of spin and just rolling down the last step wards the hole. --
:37:38. > :37:45.tire. Very difficult shot indeed. He has to feed it in from the left.
:37:45. > :37:55.The direction was good, just a bit, it sounded as if he got it a little
:37:55. > :38:14.
:38:14. > :38:24.a bit angry. I think we are getting to the end of this match.. To to
:38:24. > :38:41.
:38:41. > :38:51.two putts indeed will win him the match, and a point for the United
:38:51. > :38:55.
:38:55. > :38:59.States. Down the hill, left to take them. Well played.
:38:59. > :39:04.Disappointment for Tom Lewis. Played some nice shots but too many
:39:04. > :39:14.rag dishots in the middle. Peter Uihlein was steady more than
:39:14. > :39:16.
:39:16. > :39:26.spectacular. Point for the USA. on the back from Jim Holtgrieve,
:39:26. > :39:45.
:39:45. > :39:48.in the coming years. Let us hear in the coming years. Let us hear
:39:48. > :39:53.from Peter then. Congratulations, good win this afternoon
:39:53. > :39:58.appreciate it, thank you. Getting a bit of revenge on Tom Lewis? He is
:39:58. > :40:02.a great kid and unbelievable player. I knew I would have a tough match.
:40:02. > :40:06.I played pretty solid I felt like, and we both kind of scrapped and
:40:06. > :40:09.clawed out there, but it was so difficult with the wind, and I was
:40:09. > :40:13.fortunate enough to come out on top. Have you ever played in a match
:40:13. > :40:18.before when pars have been good enough to win holes? Seemed par was
:40:18. > :40:22.good enough today? I have been a party to a few matches like that.
:40:22. > :40:27.It was, same in the morning, you make pars out there, it was the
:40:27. > :40:32.same as this afternoon, the wind was different. It was tough to hit
:40:32. > :40:34.certain shots with that wind. It was a lot of fun. An unusual
:40:35. > :40:38.feeling for you in Walker Cup matches to lose this morning. Great
:40:38. > :40:45.come back this afternoon, how does that feel? No, I mean, you I know
:40:45. > :40:48.that was Miss First loss, I guess, so, but no, I was trying to put
:40:48. > :40:53.some points on the board and put a statement match out there and hope
:40:53. > :41:03.pli the guys will see I got it done, hopefully Speith pulls it out and
:41:03. > :41:10.
:41:10. > :41:16.gets two nice points. Job well done, playing Patrick Cantlay. All of a
:41:16. > :41:26.sudden, Ken, I don't know what it is. Suddenly they are missing putts
:41:26. > :41:35.
:41:35. > :41:39.that were knocked in simply this They don't know who is going to
:41:39. > :41:43.play who. I always find it interesting when you get say, the
:41:43. > :41:53.two best players playing against each other, and you wonder whether
:41:53. > :42:03.or not you are going to do, set them up a different way. Well done!
:42:03. > :42:18.
:42:18. > :42:23.down, so that is a terrific fight back, who at the age of 15 became
:42:23. > :42:29.the youngest man ever to play for the full Welsh side. So this is his
:42:29. > :42:34.first taste of Walker Cup action this afternoon. He is against a
:42:34. > :42:44.fellow debutante Patrick Rodgers, going down to the 16th. Oh, thought
:42:44. > :42:44.
:42:44. > :43:57.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 46 seconds
:43:57. > :44:01.afternoon go to the United States. If we are going to keep thins in
:44:01. > :44:05.their favour, they need to get some points on the board of the final
:44:05. > :44:11.five or six matches out on the course. That is how it stands. See
:44:11. > :44:18.how close it is. After a dozen matches out on the course. Well, it
:44:18. > :44:23.is almost, well, it is in the goodbye favour -- favourite at the
:44:24. > :44:33.moment -- favour at the moment. Match three, Andy Sullivan was
:44:33. > :44:38.storming along, suddenly it is all until the Galleries move from in
:44:38. > :44:43.front of the 16th green. He has 133 yards to go and the ball is well
:44:43. > :44:53.below his feet, as you can see. Needs telescopic arms for this one.
:44:53. > :45:32.
:45:32. > :45:42.He has a little seven here. The be very important to set this match
:45:42. > :46:05.
:46:05. > :46:11.that flag, the wind is beginning to the ground. The modern game is
:46:11. > :46:14.through the air. Nobody seems to play funny little runners?
:46:14. > :46:24.suppose, the course, the conditioning is soo good, they are
:46:24. > :46:30.
:46:30. > :46:36.more yielding greens, they play it it? Slightly on a down slope, wet
:46:36. > :46:41.sand. He might play a wonderful shot it's just as easy to go too
:46:41. > :46:50.deep, and hardly get it out, or skin it. He's well back. All sorts
:46:50. > :46:56.of trouble in front of him. Awkward shot for Patrick Rodgers. He is
:46:56. > :47:06.trying to make the green. The ball is Nestling in the soggy sand. He
:47:06. > :47:07.
:47:07. > :47:14.knows he has to take a risk. He is one down, playing the 15. A
:47:14. > :47:24.shortage iron. Can I get it over? If I strike it correctly I'll find
:47:24. > :47:40.
:47:40. > :47:50.the green. A little heavy and he Rhys Pugh. That sounded like a nice
:47:50. > :48:00.clean hit. Three down at one time. He look as good prospect, Ken?
:48:00. > :48:12.
:48:12. > :48:19.appease. Andy Sullivan, up at the 16th, match all square. A little
:48:19. > :48:26.chip and a run. Oh, that was a skinny one. I don't know what
:48:26. > :48:30.happened there. Surely, it's not going to go in the bunker. Amiscue.
:48:30. > :48:40.It might have been lying down a bit, but that was not one to be
:48:40. > :48:45.
:48:45. > :48:50.Great Britain-Ireland. If this leaderboard goes away. They could
:48:50. > :48:56.be three or four matches behind. Those last matches could all go
:48:56. > :49:01.America's way, or 90% of them could. You don't want to get untidy golf
:49:01. > :49:11.now, unnecessary losses. Now is the time for concentration. All
:49:11. > :49:25.
:49:25. > :49:30.away. They can have a deep psychological impression on you.
:49:30. > :49:37.Make a depression thinking, I should have done this, I should
:49:37. > :49:43.have done that. In the early Ryder Cup matches I played we always used
:49:43. > :49:48.the close matches. If we were struggle, America always nicked
:49:48. > :49:53.more than their fair share. In recent years Europe have managed to
:49:53. > :49:58.nick the matches. It's a question of controlling your emotions. Once
:49:59. > :50:06.you can play the game it's about how you can think and how you
:50:06. > :50:16.control your thoughts. He has given that a good clutter. Another one
:50:16. > :50:21.
:50:21. > :50:31.gone. USA wins the hole for four four. USA is one up. Big, long,
:50:31. > :50:32.
:50:32. > :50:38.long putt for Rodgers. Pretty darn well. Good speed. What a wonderful
:50:38. > :50:48.judgement of pace. APPLAUSE
:50:48. > :51:09.
:51:09. > :51:17.match out on the course. And... He's missed. Suddenly, it's all
:51:17. > :51:23.square, no, no, no. One of those happened to me, exact lickly like
:51:23. > :51:27.that years ago. I couldn't really understand it at all. It turned out
:51:27. > :51:37.I wasn't aiming in the right direction. It wasn't as complicated
:51:37. > :51:41.
:51:41. > :51:46.as I thought. Anybody can do it a second time. A wonderfully silly
:51:46. > :51:55.game, glorious game. The Americans are creeping closer, three matches
:51:55. > :51:59.are still all square. Young Pugh is still one up. Sullivan, he was
:51:59. > :52:07.roarin go-ahead at one time, but Harrish English has pulled him back.
:52:07. > :52:12.Much can happen over the last couple of holes. We'll go down to
:52:12. > :52:21.the 17th. This hole is playing fully 20 yards shorter than this
:52:21. > :52:25.morning. It's 170 yards. Harrish English has his nose in front, for
:52:25. > :52:31.the first time, against Andy Sullivan. One of the challenges
:52:31. > :52:36.here is that the tee, believe it or not, is shelt from the cross
:52:36. > :52:43.breezes. Flag short on the green well defended by those front four
:52:43. > :52:53.bunkers. This is a seven-iron. We have witnessed great ball striking
:52:53. > :53:08.
:53:08. > :53:13.from the American. It's been a joy It's a tricky pitch, you make your
:53:13. > :53:18.opponent thinks he's on the green. Now, he's in the bunker, I'll find
:53:19. > :53:28.the green. The way that hopped in that could easy plug in that soggy
:53:29. > :53:39.
:53:39. > :53:44.par, and he's made it. They really are - They hold putts, couldn't
:53:44. > :53:53.don't they, at the crucial times? That is a big putt to hold at that
:53:53. > :53:59.stage of the match. This for a half. Oh, no. And, we miss. United States
:53:59. > :54:03.five, Great Britain-Ireland six, Great Britain-Ireland one up. Still
:54:04. > :54:13.one up. Don't go away down hearted slumping your shoulders thinking,
:54:14. > :54:25.
:54:25. > :54:35."I'm still one up, I made a mistake, left breeze. It's, certainly,
:54:35. > :54:36.
:54:36. > :54:43.turning. Oh, he's over done it. That's an awkward chip, again, Ken,
:54:43. > :54:53.with that bank, swinging down left to the hole. He at least found the
:54:53. > :55:04.
:55:04. > :55:14.bit lucky there. Just crept over. He thinks that's on the green,
:55:14. > :55:45.
:55:45. > :55:50.fairly close, but it ain't. Match Not bad at all. These last few
:55:50. > :55:58.holes, the last hour or so, is going to prove very tense, either
:55:58. > :56:08.way. Somebody's going to go home unhappy. It could even be Steven.
:56:08. > :56:23.
:56:23. > :56:33.The Americans seem to be on a roll Brown and Henley. All square, Byrne
:56:33. > :56:37.
:56:37. > :56:45.and Smith. See how close it all is. Kuyt one up on Kelly Kraft. Stewart,
:56:45. > :56:48.Cantlay, all square. Jack Senior, obviously, unsettled I think by
:56:48. > :56:58.that lunchtime incident. Good choice of club here by Sullivan, I
:56:58. > :57:04.
:57:04. > :57:12.thought it was going to race by at one time. It's still further away
:57:12. > :57:22.than it looks, maybe seven or eight feet. His opponent is in the sand.
:57:22. > :57:29.
:57:29. > :57:36.bushes. Rhys Pugh, there you are, the ball is clear of the bushes.
:57:36. > :57:46.This reminds me of Jack Nichols. Remember he put it on the front of
:57:46. > :57:47.
:57:47. > :57:52.the green and Watson was close. This time, he might get some
:57:52. > :57:59.prickles in him. Peter, you are wondering what the lie is like,
:57:59. > :58:04.it's plugged here. This one should skip out, once it lands. It may
:58:04. > :58:11.have a bit of run behind it. There is a bank behind them. Yes it's the
:58:11. > :58:15.bank in front of him that is more of a bother. That's well played. It
:58:15. > :58:22.might roll back, you see, no, it didn't. If he went further the ball
:58:22. > :58:28.might have rolled back a bit more. Pretty good effort, staby bunker
:58:28. > :58:37.shot. Now, who can hold a putt when it's most needed. Touch-and-go who
:58:37. > :58:47.is first, out comes the ref. Both will be keen to go. Calling in the
:58:47. > :58:47.
:58:47. > :58:57.referee. Up to 13, Ken. Kraft verses Kuyt. This is Kelly Kraft. A
:58:57. > :59:14.
:59:14. > :59:24.played a beauty. Oh, modern technology. It's yours by about two
:59:24. > :59:30.
:59:30. > :59:35.feet. Sullivan's is the easer of the two. It's up hill, to the right.
:59:35. > :59:41.The other is not quite so straight- forward. One of these moments,
:59:41. > :59:45.isn't it, that could change the whole complexion of the match.
:59:45. > :59:55.Sullivan currently one down, he's on the 17th green. This is for his
:59:55. > :00:22.
:00:22. > :00:32.didn't give it enough. It was ant having a slash at the 16th green.
:00:32. > :00:32.
:00:32. > :01:14.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 46 seconds
:01:15. > :01:19.a gorgeous evening now, but crucial things, this to win victory, it is,
:01:19. > :01:25.and Andy Sullivan had this match but it slipped away and Harris
:01:25. > :01:29.English finishes the stronger, and very important win there for United
:01:29. > :01:36.States. They love the singles. It is all about the singles, we heard
:01:36. > :01:43.one of them say. They do, because our man or GB and Ireland man I
:01:43. > :01:48.should say. He made a few mistakes. The other fellow made a putt and
:01:48. > :01:52.they are shake hands. Well played Harris English. The man who has won
:01:52. > :01:58.a fro forensic examinational tournament as an amateur. So it is
:01:58. > :02:04.three in the bag for the United States and suddenly, in the overall
:02:04. > :02:08.match score, 4-3 the USA leads. They need 13 points if they are to
:02:08. > :02:13.retain the Walker Cup, and they would do so for the fourth time in
:02:13. > :02:23.a row. Four in a row they are looking forward to. Rhys Pugh is
:02:23. > :02:26.
:02:26. > :02:31.still holding steady, and the last Playing -- Paul Cutler. Playing
:02:31. > :02:37.against craft craft. Too bad for pace. One up at the moment. The man
:02:37. > :02:44.from Port Stewart. Let us get down to another daughter of Northern
:02:44. > :02:49.Ireland, Maureen. Raise I am here with Harris English. You were three
:02:50. > :02:54.down after ten holes and your opponent puts his tee shot stone
:02:54. > :02:59.dead. Things weren't looking too Rosie then. I was playing well all
:02:59. > :03:03.day. Andy had four under. He was playing well. I was playing well. I
:03:03. > :03:07.mean, I was probably oner der after ten holes and I was playing well. I
:03:07. > :03:11.had to keep doing my thing. I got some stuff going my way and the
:03:11. > :03:17.putt at the 11 got some Mohamed tum going. It was a great match and
:03:17. > :03:21.Andy is a great player. It was fun. That putt at the 11th was
:03:21. > :03:25.outrageous. All humps and hollows, did you see a line to it? I did a
:03:26. > :03:32.bit. He had nit there two feet and gave me a birdie so I knew I had to
:03:32. > :03:37.make it. Hit a great putt and it went in. It was the longest have
:03:37. > :03:44.hit in a while. Congratulations, a high calibre performance. I am glad
:03:44. > :03:52.to be here. Appreciate it. Quickly to Rhys Pugh and he has done it
:03:52. > :03:56.well. Wins the hole against Patrick Rodgers. Listen to the noise.
:03:56. > :04:01.Rightly so too, that was a very good putt from the young fellow,
:04:01. > :04:06.and that could be most important at the end of the day. Because these
:04:06. > :04:14.last few matches, they could go either way. He has a cushion now.
:04:14. > :04:19.Two the play. He is going to win half a point at worst, but look at
:04:19. > :04:23.the other, all are all square. They could lose or whip all those. And
:04:23. > :04:28.suddenly, from all the elition this morning -- elation this morning,
:04:28. > :04:36.things could change, but you never know. Could go our way as well,
:04:36. > :04:42.equally as well. But the Americans were on a bit of a roll. They have
:04:42. > :04:46.their supporters galloping round the course. Telling people "You can
:04:46. > :04:51.do it." Let's go out to one of those matches in the balance. The
:04:51. > :05:01.final match Michael Stewart. He has had a few short putts missing so
:05:01. > :05:15.
:05:15. > :05:25.Cantlay asking him to knock this against a very good player in
:05:25. > :05:27.
:05:27. > :05:33.Patrick Cantlay. He has got to keep his head, keep his nerve. Let us
:05:33. > :05:39.get out to the match involving Rhys Pugh and Rogers. Pugh, the youngest
:05:39. > :05:49.man, the young Welshman on Patrick Rodgers, and... Take enough club
:05:49. > :06:04.
:06:04. > :06:13.and go down the right of the flag, might be lucky. He might be lucky.
:06:13. > :06:17.He is. He is nestleed between the two bunkers, not the easiest of
:06:17. > :06:27.chip shots but it could have been worse. Two up two to play. Only
:06:27. > :06:40.
:06:40. > :06:44.is just 18. This is very much a young man's game. Pugh, 17, this
:06:44. > :06:50.will play 170 this afternoonful you can see the flag down in the bottom
:06:50. > :07:00.level. This green goes up in steps. A beautiful par three. That is the
:07:00. > :07:21.
:07:21. > :07:31.S deuce. Let us go to the 15th. Steven Brown. Elegant swinger from
:07:31. > :07:32.
:07:32. > :07:40.Wentworth. Playing against Russell Henley. This match all square, and
:07:40. > :07:50.hmm. He may need something stronger than that, son, I don't know where
:07:50. > :07:50.
:07:50. > :08:39.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 46 seconds
:08:39. > :08:48.to be a punchy one. It maidges it that little bit more difficult. But
:08:48. > :08:58.I don't know where GB and Ireland are. That is not him stuck on the
:08:58. > :09:17.
:09:17. > :09:21.three matches. James Byrne has just gone one up on Nathan Smith. Here
:09:21. > :09:27.is a crucial little shot. It looks relatively simple but it has a bump
:09:27. > :09:31.in front of him. A little pitch and run Maureen? It is. It is 17-year-
:09:31. > :09:34.old nerves can play that. I would have had the putter out. That is a
:09:34. > :09:39.decent effort. A bit of a bold pitch. He might have played it
:09:39. > :09:49.nearer the ground but he is eight feet past. His opponent is in the
:09:49. > :09:53.bunker the other side. Yes, Patrick Rodgers's golf ball jumped out of
:09:53. > :09:57.the imprint, so it is lying well. It is a delicate one this. Just
:09:57. > :10:01.really has to get this on to the green, an the contours will feed it
:10:01. > :10:05.down to the hole. Coming left to right. But certainly there is a
:10:05. > :10:09.slightly open door here for the American. Interesting red sand.
:10:09. > :10:18.Whether that is because it is wet, or whether it is a special sand
:10:18. > :10:28.from the... This neck of the woods. He has played a very good shot
:10:28. > :10:37.
:10:37. > :10:47.Brown. His ball Appiah Kubi peered there. We saw it coming under the
:10:47. > :11:21.
:11:21. > :11:28.camera so this his third, playing young man. Well done indeed. So at
:11:28. > :11:38.the moment, the scores are level. On rushes the captain. He nearly
:11:38. > :11:42.
:11:42. > :11:46.excitement. I must say. Even if they are taking sixes and sevens,
:11:46. > :11:52.it is still exciting. That was a good, they played very good from
:11:52. > :11:57.the young fella. That is a terrific win from Rhys Pugh. He is a lovely
:11:57. > :12:00.young man. He has his family up here. Half of bales, I think has
:12:00. > :12:05.travelled up. The captain said although he was young and Kuwait,
:12:05. > :12:10.he was a very tough nut to crack. And so it has proved today in that
:12:10. > :12:15.match against Rodgers, coming from three down to win two and one. It
:12:15. > :12:25.is all square, in three. One up for Great Britain and Ireland in the
:12:25. > :12:26.
:12:26. > :12:29.last of the remaining matches. Who last of the remaining matches. Who
:12:29. > :12:35.will pre-- prevail? How was that? It was fabulous match. You know, he
:12:35. > :12:40.was five undeafter five, which... It was fabulous, it was fabulous
:12:40. > :12:45.golf. But I come back in the end, just stayed patient, and... Top of
:12:45. > :12:48.the world stuff isn't it. Stuff of dreams. It was like playing in a
:12:49. > :12:55.dream. Best shot, what was the shot of the day for you? You were down
:12:56. > :13:01.early on, weren't you? Probably the 13th. That was probably the turning
:13:01. > :13:07.point, going one. It was a nifty tree at the last to finish it off.
:13:07. > :13:17.You squared the match at four all. You squared the match at four all.
:13:17. > :13:27.
:13:28. > :13:32.Thank you. Well done. Restores your Andrew. It wasn't to be. I am
:13:32. > :13:37.watching Rhys Pugh talking, he is very engaging. The first Walker Cup
:13:37. > :13:41.match to end in victory over the world number three in amateur
:13:41. > :13:51.rankings. It is tremendous, which ever side you are supporting, it is
:13:51. > :14:12.
:14:12. > :14:22.nice to see. Now here, a putt for half. And that just gnaws away at
:14:22. > :14:40.
:14:40. > :14:44.thoughts in the brainbox. Start all oaf again. Fair ways and greens. --
:14:44. > :14:48.start all over again.. If that putt had gone in it would have been
:14:48. > :14:55.absolutely even, because at the moment, just the one there, James
:14:55. > :14:58.Byrne is one up now an Nathan Smith, the match is four points all. And
:14:58. > :15:03.again, these last four matches, so very very important. We will go
:15:03. > :15:08.down to that match involving Nathan Smith and James Byrne. This is
:15:08. > :15:18.Nathan Smith. The only real career amateur in the two teams. Financial
:15:18. > :15:39.
:15:39. > :15:43.adviser. Three times the US mid chill. He played that nicely.
:15:43. > :15:52.Controlled it, didn't hit through the ball too fast. He pushed it
:15:52. > :16:01.forward. That was a good shot. is his opponent, James Byrne, one
:16:01. > :16:09.up at the moment. He's already completed four years Atta zone ya
:16:09. > :16:19.state University. He lost the final of last year's Amateur Final
:16:19. > :16:26.
:16:26. > :16:30.standing. As I mentioned, four matches remaining out on the course,
:16:30. > :16:37.Great Britain-Ireland up in this one match, all the others all
:16:37. > :16:47.square. I don't know why they're waiting. He's ready to go now.
:16:47. > :16:57.
:16:57. > :17:07.These fairways are, absolutely, wind Gusing across, something just
:17:07. > :17:17.
:17:17. > :17:22.Oh, look at that? What a good bit of fortune there. Some of my
:17:23. > :17:32.colleagues would say, he controlled the spin beautifully. That was
:17:32. > :17:38.about good, nice, pleasant luck. Down on the 14th green with Kelly
:17:38. > :17:48.Kraft who has this putt to half the hole and stay all square, playing
:17:48. > :17:50.
:17:50. > :17:55.against the Irish Mann, Paul Cutler. Kelly Kraft you might have seen him
:17:55. > :17:59.beating Patrick Cantlay in the final of the US Amateur last month.
:17:59. > :18:05.Did you watch it? I enjoyed watching it on the television. He
:18:05. > :18:12.came out of the blue, all of a sudden. Speaking Patrick Cantlay,
:18:12. > :18:17.this is a long birdie attempt. This to win the hole against Michael
:18:17. > :18:26.Stewart. Cantlay has been up against it. A couple of putts
:18:26. > :18:36.missed by Michael Stewart. Cantlay is a beautiful putter. Depends who
:18:36. > :18:37.
:18:37. > :18:42.side you are on. He is a beautiful putter for Great Britain-Ireland.
:18:42. > :18:52.That was a misjudgement is the generous way of describing that. A
:18:52. > :18:52.
:18:52. > :19:02.real chance for Michael Stewart now. Beautiful putter Patrick Cantlay.
:19:02. > :19:06.
:19:06. > :19:16.You have a wasp ish sense of humour, young sir! Nathan Smith at the 15th.
:19:16. > :19:17.
:19:17. > :19:27.James Byrne, one up. James Byrne, he played that shot, he spung it
:19:27. > :20:00.
:20:00. > :20:07.nicely. I wouldn't past him to hole reckon, Andrew? Subtlety to the
:20:07. > :20:12.greens here. Yeah. It looks fairly flat, but they make you second
:20:12. > :20:18.guess. A lot of these putts are left of right off centre. Hello,
:20:18. > :20:25.what doo-doo we have here? Someone from somewhere. He's nicked a coat
:20:25. > :20:35.for somewhere, or he's lost. Con on sunshine, in you go... No. He
:20:35. > :20:36.
:20:36. > :20:46.pushed, pushed, pushed it. That would have given him a nice cushion.
:20:46. > :20:47.
:20:47. > :20:55.Oh, indeed. It would, it would, it would. Ah, mum's arrived. Father's
:20:55. > :21:05.coat on, at the look of it. Put that coat - put it on. Do what I'm
:21:05. > :21:22.
:21:22. > :21:27.bad. We are looking at Russell Henley. Not too bad a lie here.
:21:27. > :21:33.Brown has missed the green. This has been a ding-dong battle. Never
:21:33. > :21:43.more than a hole in it. Good golf throughout. It's down at this stage
:21:43. > :22:03.
:22:03. > :22:10.way and it is... Oh, it might spin. so far, there's still a lot of
:22:10. > :22:14.things that can happen. Whatever happens from here on in, it will be
:22:14. > :22:20.pretty close. Let's go back to the 13th, Michael Stewart. We saw
:22:20. > :22:26.Patrick Cantlay bundling it through the back. This, then, to win. Oh,
:22:26. > :22:31.rattles that one. Michael Stewart goes one up in the final match out.
:22:31. > :22:36.There things looking brighter again for Great Britain-Ireland. Did did
:22:36. > :22:44.you think that putt went in at a fair pace? I suppose, the
:22:44. > :22:48.confidence of the young ones. This is the 15th. Yes, both players
:22:48. > :22:54.driving into the fairway bunker. They wouldn't have been able to see
:22:54. > :22:59.that bunker from the tee. Kelly Kraft, US Amateur Champion. The
:22:59. > :23:03.match is all square. Both players are too far back, I think, to reach
:23:03. > :23:12.the green here. It's a big face in front of them, 120 or so yards to
:23:12. > :23:18.go. What they have to be careful of here is that bunker that eats into
:23:18. > :23:28.the front of the green. We got it clean as a whistle. That could be a
:23:28. > :23:30.
:23:30. > :23:35.very interesting colour the sand, is it because it's wet or is it
:23:35. > :23:42.just that colour? You don't often see sand that colour unless you are
:23:42. > :23:47.on a clay course. This, certainly, isn't clay? Yes, it does look clay,
:23:47. > :23:51.Peter, but the dampness, the wet of the sand that has given it that
:23:51. > :23:56.colour at the moment. This ball is much nearer the face, isn't it?
:23:56. > :24:00.is. I think, sensibly here, Paul will advance it 50 or 60 yards or
:24:01. > :24:05.so and be first to play in with his third shot. Where did the other one
:24:05. > :24:09.go, in another bunker? I didn't actually see. It it went out of
:24:09. > :24:14.view from where I am. He just played that out down the fairway.
:24:14. > :24:23.How far has he got now, Paul? Around about 100 yards to the pin.
:24:23. > :24:33.Maybe a little less than that. There you see it. The evening wind
:24:33. > :24:39.
:24:39. > :24:44.is beginning to calm down. The long birdie putt. Sten Brown had a
:24:44. > :24:49.difficult chip from the left side of the green. He put it 12 or 14
:24:49. > :24:59.feet beyond the flag. More realistically, a good two putt from
:24:59. > :25:13.
:25:13. > :25:21.here. It's coming round. It had the been, it doesn't have appeared he
:25:21. > :25:27.played a good one. Maureen says he's 14 to 15 feet away. Bottom of
:25:27. > :25:37.the screen all the matches will Flit across. It will start from the
:25:37. > :25:48.
:25:48. > :25:56.away from the flag. The third shot for Cutler. You see that's where
:25:56. > :26:06.the spin takes over. Instead of being ten feet away, he's 20 feet
:26:06. > :26:13.
:26:13. > :26:18.he judged it well, hasn't he just? That's a cruncher to hole after the
:26:18. > :26:21.trials and tribulations. That doesn't happen very often, but his
:26:21. > :26:25.captain will be delighted it happened at that time. Now, he's
:26:25. > :26:33.got a chance, maybe just an outside chance, of winning the hole it
:26:33. > :26:38.looked as if he was going to lose. Certainly not going to lose it.
:26:38. > :26:42.Hodgson, Tom Lewis are out watching. Those whose matchs have finished,
:26:42. > :26:45.onto or didn't feature this afternoon, coming Ouattara to
:26:45. > :26:51.support. Maureen is down there as well. What a turnaround on this
:26:51. > :27:00.green? This is a left to right slider. For Henley. At this stage
:27:00. > :27:04.it as's how you feel much he might go more aggressive on this. An an
:27:04. > :27:10.extraordinary up-and-down by the English Mann it required nothing
:27:10. > :27:20.but precision of strike. Well holed. Well holed, indeed.
:27:20. > :27:32.
:27:32. > :27:42.CHEERING AND APPLAUSE Four seasons in one day. This is
:27:42. > :27:48.
:27:48. > :27:53.matches left. The momentum slide slightly with the home side. Up in
:27:53. > :28:00.two thanks to Byrne and Stewart. All square in the matches verses
:28:00. > :28:05.Brown and Cutler. Down to 16th we go. On 16 we find Nathan Smith in
:28:05. > :28:11.the evening sunshine. Beautiful evening. In a bit of bother here
:28:11. > :28:20.against James Byrne. Byrne, one up at the moment. You can see a bit of
:28:20. > :28:30.the ball there. The grass seems to be going with the ball. A little
:28:30. > :28:42.
:28:42. > :28:52.twirl of the club. Oh, right over tee shot out to the right. A thick
:28:52. > :28:55.
:28:55. > :28:59.pocket of rough there, that he especially in the rough. Where he
:28:59. > :29:04.is standing now seems to be fine. But he seems to have gone down into
:29:04. > :29:10.the greener stuff. Sometimes you can get extra run, pitch 20 yards
:29:10. > :29:16.short object on the green. You get jump and run and end up on the
:29:16. > :29:26.green. This has got to be a chaser. It looks as if he tried to play a
:29:26. > :29:34.chaser. Oh, it's top stuff. That was unlucky. One hop, that was a
:29:34. > :29:39.gem. Very good shot. Good result. Byrne still one up at the moment.
:29:39. > :29:44.Back to the 15th. Kelly Kraft. Oh, he wasn't a million miles away.
:29:44. > :29:49.Well, if it had hit the hole it would have done some damage.
:29:49. > :29:56.Moments like that you say, "I had to have a go for it, partner".
:29:56. > :30:02.Another classic line from the world of golf. Kraft all square against
:30:02. > :30:07.Paul Cutler. Here, Russell Henley, all square against Steven Brown. In
:30:07. > :30:12.this evening light it will be looking even better. 170 yards, pin
:30:12. > :30:15.bottom level. Maureen is there. Andrew, he's already changed his
:30:15. > :30:20.club once. He has gone back to the original. He is going between a
:30:20. > :30:24.five and a six. It's just how you see the shot, really. If they fly
:30:24. > :30:29.it too high in the air it gets buffeted by this cross breeze
:30:29. > :30:34.coming from the right hand side. How is the wind, Maureen, it
:30:34. > :30:39.doesn't appear, looking at the trees behind, as wind wild as it
:30:39. > :30:43.was a while ago. It's not as wild. It's pretty healthy. There is
:30:43. > :30:47.nothing straight-forward about it. Anything not struck precisely will
:30:48. > :30:57.be severely affected. He may grip down on this one, so maybe going
:30:58. > :31:20.
:31:20. > :31:30.all right. Online. Fine shot. Right over the top of the stick. But safe.
:31:30. > :31:34.
:31:34. > :31:38.Good position. That was a beautiful strike by the American there.
:31:39. > :31:43.Steven Bryan English champion going for a more orthodox six iron.
:31:43. > :31:53.Moving on to the left side of the tee so he can fire into the cross
:31:53. > :32:12.
:32:12. > :32:22.Edwards. Great shot under the pressure coming down in the final
:32:22. > :32:30.
:32:30. > :32:40.match all square. Long putt, but should it go in? He will go one up.
:32:40. > :32:49.
:32:49. > :32:54.Not bad is it? Not too shabby. Well, the hills tonight. One up, one up,
:32:54. > :33:04.the last few frachs. One all square, but oh, those treasure rows last
:33:04. > :33:11.
:33:11. > :33:21.win the hole. This the go two up, with two to play. Lovely pace on
:33:21. > :33:30.
:33:30. > :33:34.that one. Good sensible safe putt. try and respond. We saw Smith
:33:34. > :33:44.bouncing through this green, so I am sure he h have a putt of, not
:33:44. > :33:49.sure what the distance is, but a putt for a half. Well he didn't in
:33:49. > :33:59.fact play a very good chip shot, he didn't appear to be in a bad spot,
:33:59. > :33:59.
:33:59. > :34:45.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 46 seconds
:34:45. > :34:51.left it what, 14 feet short. It has have to be accurate. Has he gone
:34:51. > :34:54.left, left, left. The gorse bush is out there, spectators out there. Oh.
:34:54. > :35:02.With great respect that was an awful swing, for swung so good.
:35:02. > :35:07.That was all over the place. I don't know where he was at that
:35:07. > :35:12.moment of impact. In a bad place. Paul Cutler one. Back to the 17th
:35:12. > :35:15.and we have Russell Henley on the second level of this green here.
:35:15. > :35:25.Steven Brown in a good position on the right level. This match all
:35:25. > :35:30.
:35:30. > :35:40.square. Look where he is going out here? Got to go well left ft it is
:35:40. > :35:40.
:35:41. > :35:50.a real ski sloef of an effort, this. -- slope. He is three or four feet
:35:51. > :35:51.
:35:51. > :35:55.away. It was an awkward putt. Hello? Oil tan ders or whatever
:35:55. > :36:01.they are. -- tankers. There is a website you can look up every ship,
:36:01. > :36:06.you can see, you can find out what that ship is, where it is going.
:36:06. > :36:15.You used to see Humphrey Bogart on ships like that, when I was a kid.
:36:15. > :36:19.Looks a bit of a mess. It could do with a lick of paint! Down there to
:36:19. > :36:29.the 17th green, here is Steven Brown. This is a putt to go if
:36:29. > :36:29.
:36:29. > :36:35.front to, go one up with one to he had a good solid stroke on the
:36:35. > :36:44.last. That is a good stroke but it didn't go in, so a chance for his
:36:44. > :36:54.opponent to roll it in and get half... And go down the last. We
:36:54. > :37:04.haven't seen anyone go down the last today, so far. This isn't a
:37:04. > :37:33.
:37:33. > :37:43.push over either. This is not a has a lot of brother in it. Yeah,
:37:43. > :37:43.
:37:43. > :37:46.nasty one. Played a good tee shot but he just went 20 feet too far.
:37:46. > :37:51.Well, things have changed dramatically in the last 45 minutes
:37:51. > :37:55.or so ch it was slipping away from the home side, when suddenly they
:37:55. > :38:02.have recovered, and it looks very much as if we are going to end this
:38:02. > :38:05.first day with a lead. This is Patrick Cantlay in the final match
:38:05. > :38:11.against Michael Stewart. One down at the moment, this to get back to
:38:11. > :38:15.all square. Rolls it in. All square against Michael Stewart in the
:38:15. > :38:21.final match, no sooner has one match gone... In the favour of
:38:21. > :38:25.Great Britain and Ireland, one more swings back to all square.
:38:25. > :38:30.really is a test of courage, and desire, nerves and particularly
:38:30. > :38:33.when you think about the young men, very few of them have been in this
:38:33. > :38:36.situation before under television scrutiny and they are watching
:38:36. > :38:39.people on the telly, and representing your country, it is a
:38:39. > :38:44.very new experience, and they are learning a lot about themselves and
:38:44. > :38:47.their level of desire, and their ability to cope under pressure.
:38:47. > :38:52.Nigel Edwards, said he selected some of these players at the bottom
:38:52. > :38:59.of the order, as we go down to the 18th, for their gutsy about, and
:38:59. > :39:03.this man here, Steven Brown has shown plenty of that.. Yes the 18th
:39:03. > :39:11.unwanted, unloved so far in this Walker Cup. This is the first match
:39:11. > :39:20.to go down the 18th and Steven Brown here, from Wentworth, one up.
:39:20. > :39:26.Find the fairway, looks a touch anxious. No need. Steady. And back
:39:26. > :39:36.on to the flat. All working outifiesly for the wee laddie. Not
:39:36. > :40:04.
:40:04. > :40:09.sure where that is in the bunker or mistakes, I'm afraid, keeping in.
:40:09. > :40:19.All those yard damage books and the good advice, slip out of the window.
:40:19. > :40:27.
:40:27. > :40:35.16th. Against Kelly Kraft. Kelly Kraft in the bushes with his tee
:40:35. > :40:39.shot. A little mutters. There should be good enough. Should be
:40:39. > :40:45.good enough for Paul Cutler, with Kraft in all sorts of trouble to
:40:45. > :40:55.move two up with two to play. This is Kraft. So his fourth shot now,
:40:55. > :41:09.
:41:09. > :41:15.a chance. Cutler will have to two now, over Aberdeen. And very
:41:15. > :41:21.interesting final few matches here. It has been a funny sort of day, we
:41:21. > :41:25.woke up and it was very dreary and drizzly and cool, even cold wind.
:41:25. > :41:30.Then we had that violent storm in the middle of the afternoon, and
:41:30. > :41:35.now it is a barmy, almost a barmy summer's evening. This lad has two
:41:35. > :41:45.putts to win the hole. A foot left. Let it run down to the hole. Do not
:41:45. > :41:57.
:41:57. > :42:07.do anything silly. That will do I Kelly Kraft. Otherwise it will be a
:42:07. > :42:34.
:42:34. > :42:41.concession. And Cutler would be two Kraft, otherwise he will scoop up
:42:41. > :42:46.the marker of Paul Cutler I'm sure. -- so this has to go in for Kraft.
:42:46. > :42:56.Well, he has asked the question at least of Paul Cutler. That is a
:42:56. > :43:03.
:43:03. > :43:07.question of Paul Cutler. We are not going to see it answered right now,
:43:07. > :43:12.because we are coming to the end of transmission on BBC Two. We will of
:43:12. > :43:17.course continue on the red button and on line until the conclusion of
:43:17. > :43:23.the singles, today, and thereafter tomorrow we will on the air on BBC
:43:23. > :43:28.Two, from 11.30 in the morning. So join us for that here in the North
:43:28. > :43:34.East of Scotland. Coverage durbgsz as I say, continue on BBC red
:43:34. > :43:38.button, so, from all of us here, in the granite city, it is, well,
:43:38. > :43:42.required a granite constitution to withstand the weather and indeed
:43:42. > :43:47.the pressures of competition in this 43rd Walker Cup. We have had
:43:47. > :43:51.it all today. As we near the end of the first day in the Walker Cup, it
