When Great Britain and Ireland Curtis Cup captain Elaine Ratcliffe addresses her team on Saturday night, she might want to eschew a big speech for the Greek mythological story of Sisyphus. He’s the character who kept rolling a big boulder up a hill, only to have it keep falling back to the bottom.
That’s what Saturday in the 42nd Curtis Cup Match at Merion Golf Club felt like for the visiting side. When it looked like GB&I might sweep the Americans in the three afternoon foursomes matches, the USA managed to get a split – one win, one tie and one defeat – to keep its five-point advantage.

Master Craftsman Bob Vokey’s long-trusted T Grind – an original Vokey tour grind and a favorite among tour players including Jordan Spieth and Justin Thomas – is now available through WedgeWorks.
Inspired by Vokey’s work with one of the game’s all-time best wedge players, the T Grind was designed for great hands and a vivid short-game imagination. Available in 58º and 60º lofts, it is ideal for a shallow angle of attack in firm conditions, with low bounce and a narrow crescent surface. Compared to Vokey’s L grind, it has a wider back flange which allows for lower measured bounce.

When you're a gear junkie like Kyle, the winner of a new Mitsubishi TENSEI 1K Pro White shaft in my 12 Days of Christmas Jingle Bam Giveaway, there's nothing quite like testing out all kinds of new equipment.
New equipment doesn't always translate to better play on the course. But since Kyle has put the TENSEI 1K in his driver he's seen "more consistent total distance." And that's compared to a variety of heads and shafts he's played over the last few years.
