In the aftermath of his side’s defeat at Bethpage Black, the U.S. captain was already calling for a rule change.
A look at how each player has fared for both teams in the 45th Ryder Cup at Bethpage Black.
“I have a chance to do the coolest thing in my life here. And like, the Ryder Cup means everything to me,” Shane Lowry told his caddie coming up the 18th hole.
This is how the 45th Ryder Cup played out at Bethpage Black over the course of five sessions with Europe winning on the road, 15-13.
Europe entered Sunday singles at Bethpage Black leading by seven points before the U.S. gave the visitors everything they had in what ended a 15-13 European victory.
The European team moved to within two points of retaining the Ryder Cup on Sunday after Viktor Hovland was forced to withdraw prior to his singles match because of a neck injury.
Up seven points, 11.5-4.5, Europe unsurprisingly enters Sunday singles as the heavy betting favorite to win the 45th Ryder Cup.
If Hovland, who was a late scratch from Saturday afternoon fourballs because of a neck injury, doesn’t play Sunday, it would invoke the Envelope Rule.
The confrontation occurred on Bethpage’s 15th green, ignited by Rose telling DeChambeau’s caddie, Greg Bodine, to back off while he read his birdie putt.
World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler is 0-4 and world No. 2 Rory McIlroy is 3-0-1. They will clash in Sunday singles at the Ryder Cup.
