USA have won it 25 times. Europe/GB+Eire/GB have won it 11 times. If Europe wins every Ryder Cup to 2036 then it's time to start gloating. Not yet.
Maybe they should change it to Europe v Rest of the world considering the thrashing the yanks have had in the last 2 ;-)

Originally posted by Officer DibbleAu contraire, if our rugby team beats Italy, for example, would we gloat?

No, because we're either favourites historically. Never lost to them in competition.
We gloat, however, when we beat England 3 years in a row, like we have done over the last three years BECAUSE it's an achievement which goes against history. England have always been strong- so when we get them thrice in a row, we are pretty chuffed.
So permit us, Ireland, England, Scotland, Wales, Spain, Germany and Sweden some gloating for EUROPE now! And then again in two years... 😉
