Good effort, but this is too much of a stretch for me to think this captures the essence of the Ryder Cup. If it weren't for the title, there would be no connection whatsoever to golf.

Team sport? Sorry, not by my definition. Remember, the challenge is for the image itself, not the image title. The image simply doesn't convey a team sport, no matter how you spin it.

The out of focus or blurred grass really detracts from this composition. The blade whick nearly bisects the image horizontally and the blade or thick twig at the bottom interrupt the flow of the lines. Cute sense of humor for the challenge, but on its own it really conveys nothing of "sport".

You really needed to do something past your title in this photo to say "Golf."

Beautiful shot... it has an artistic touch to it. Without the title, I wouldn't think of golf, though. Doesn't really match the requirements of the challenge, in my opinion.

Only sky...

Without the title I would never be able to associate this with any sport at all.

Nice colors and lines, but I just don't see much in the way of sports.

ok

Great shot, only wish that it spoke team sport to me without having to see the title.

I really couldn't make this fit the challenge and the photography. The branches are very pretty against the sky, but could be in better focus with more a focus subject.

Hmmm...without your title, this would have nothing to do with the challenge. It's easy to "get by" by relying on a title, but in my opinion, the photo should speak for itself---this one doesn't.

Good idea for this challenge. I almost wish you'd shot a bit of the golf ball because that would have made this a 10. 9

Cute idea I think. Just a bit too much magenta.

where's the sport?

out of focus

Although I like the photo, the photo itself doesn't communicate team sports to me without the title. I think the title and the photo should go hand in hand, but not explain what we are supposed to think or feel. That's my opinion. Anyhow, the sky is nice, the blur sports make me think you got water on your lens though. The dark branch at the bottom is a little distracting, the composition is nice though. Good luck.

Without the title, I wouldn't even know that this was about sport. Nice colors, nice atmosphere, very unfit for the challenge.

golf is not a team sport

This picture would really benefit from increased depth of field.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

great perspective and color distortion use, but I would have no idea you were refering to a sport without the title...side-question but not affecting my scoring is: golf = "team" sport?
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Without the title, I wouldn't have gotten the "notion of a team sport". Interesting shot nonetheless.

Awesome shot! Love the colors, contrast and idea! I wouldn't have thought of it in relation to a sport though without the tilte... otherwise a beautiful job!

How is this related to the challenge? I see no connection...The title doesn't help me understand the photo too. Good luck in the other challenges though...
