Monty furious after dreadful first day for Britain and Ireland
Continental Europe, with Jose Maria Olazabal now at the helm, lead 4-1 after the opening fourballs. And within minutes of play finishing, Montgomerie gathered his team, which includes six of last year’s Ryder Cup heroes, behind closed doors.
“I’m not very happy,” he said when he emerged. “There were certain things going on that will remain between ourselves. I said to them ‘Come on, this is not quite good enough’. I want to make a game of this and we have to play better, as simple as that. They were listening and they are fired up now.”
