Key Moments

Another year another win for Team Europe, here is some more of the classic banter between teams and 2017 could have been the best yet...

  • Roo - "Can I put a label on your handbag"
  • Scardie - "what mountain range do you think that is? Pyrenees or Andes?", Col - "Well it's not the Pyrenees they're in South America"
  • Shak - Eagle chip from 142 yards
  • Col - bunker shot from below the green with backspin to 6inch from hole to win game
  • Golf course - Anally strict buggies at Boavista
  • Col - dropped ball and it rolled into bunker
  • Carter - 5 shots to get out of bunker, then picked up
  • Roo - clearing out all his golf balls. 12 balls in one round
  • Dunc - driver for every shot!
  • Geordie & Geoff - trying to escape Colin's shot in the buggy
  • Scardie - "first bit of sun this year", Geordie - "well I don't know..... it was sunny last year!"
  • Thommo - after filling up. "Ahhh we've got Mrs OCD with the notes, she's turning them all over the silly bitch!" Thinking she can't hear because she's behind a screen
  • Shak - Playing darts with highest score does a shot. Carter scored 76. Scardie said we could all throw them in the floor and we would only get 75. Shak steps up and throws 2 into the floor and cockily threw the last dart into the board straight into treble 9 giving 77 and a shot.
  • General - Pissed absinth man
  • Fonz - getting rejected entry to the nightclub
  • Scardie - Closest match of darts ever. Four scores 130, 130, 138 and 136. Finished with a Bull from Scardie
  • Dunc discussing dieting App. Col - "the trouble is with something like mash potato, there are loads of different options, some at 10 calories and some at 1000, you've got to find the right one" Dunc - "you can just scan the barcode", "on the potatoes?!"
  • Geordie - not checking in, cost £17.50. Loads of abuse and then Dunc and Lob getting the same fine for not checking in on the return
  • Bird - "Oh my god, it's makin' me eyes water" row of three ladies behind us on the plane. Followed by "has me mascara ran?"
  • Roo - Fonzy hits a great drive, Roo shouts a combo of shot and strike which came out as "SHITE Fonzy"
  • Dunc - backwards of first tee and then picks up the ball so three off the tee
  • Col - hit a bridge and went backwards into the lake
  • All - Aquaplaning in the rain on the way to the course
  • Geoff - "aim for that tree Lob, the one with the branches, you know, the one with the trunk"
  • Dunc - "look at the size of that cat!!"... "Er it's a dog!!""
  • Shaq - bouncy ball down the path on the 18th at Ocean. Hit ball 250 yards. Came back 100!
  • Shaq - "who do you think will be man of the match?" Dunc - "it could be anybody"
  • Lob - "shall we fill up at the Hippo fuel place?" "Er... the one with the picture of the Elephant"
  • Col - taking two of own wickets when batting, only took two of the oppositions when bowling
  • Carter - Hiding from Carter when he went to the toilet
  • Thommo - Darts rage
  • Col - "Don't bother embroidering my white and blue shirts because I'll get new ones next year", Roo - "Well don't give them to me then"
