"They don't make sense to me" - Max Homa wants talking point removed.
Max Homa wants to see the back of teams retaining both the Ryder Cup and Solheim Cup via a tied 14-14 match.
Homa, 32, made his feelings known in the media centre ahead of his United States Ryder Cup debut at Marco Simone this week.
The subject of a team retaining a cup following a tied match has been in the spotlight in recent days.
This was after Suzann Pettersen's Team Europe retained the Solheim Cup on home soil at Finca Cortesin in Spain via the first ever tie in Solheim Cup history, and US Solheim Cup captain Stacy Lewis questioned the eventual outcome of a tied match.
