Original subtitles

Ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay.

How you handled that…

Okay, Mom. My mom's gonna put her camera away now, guys. Sorry, one sec.

- What's up with the handkerchief? - There we go. Yeah. Here.

It's blue and, uh…

- It's blue and yellow! - Who's blue and yellow?

I really appreciate the Ryder Cup and everything it means, and

I think it has brought a certain amount of intrigue to the entire season.

We should do it. Walk out to the stage like Dodgeball.

The Ryder Cup is the most intense feeling we get in golf

by miles.

Go into the first row

and my guy up there, Matt, will re-explain all of this.

You're gonna start the second.

There's just something different to it. It just always creates so much drama.

USA!

I don't know if I could've dreamed of ever actually being at the Ryder Cup.

And I'm ready to show the world and the country what I've got.

We're friends all year until the Ryder Cup.

And it's, you know, Europeans on one side and Americans on the other.

It's kind of weird in a way.

I guess you could compare it to, like, maybe MMA fighting or something.

What is up, New York?

Please welcome to the stage your 2025 European Ryder Cup team.

And ready to take back the Ryder Cup,

please welcome to the stage the 2025 United States Ryder Cup team!

USA! USA! USA!

We are playing for something far greater than ourselves.

It's about pride and the legacy you leave behind.

That was incredible!

The Miracle at Medinah!

We are on a quest to reclaim the Ryder Cup.

Bethpage Black is known as the People's Country Club.

It's been called New York's home course.

This week, with your passion,

you're gonna make it America's home course.

Thank you. Go, USA.

It feels a little bit different being in New York.

Those New York fans, they want us to win more than anyone.

- Yes! - They're very passionate.

- We're bringing it home, boys! - It's like they don't have, um, a filter.

Get a haircut, Tommy!

Teletubby!

Europe is a joke!

It's very intense.

There's a lot of pressure.

You have 50,000 people cheering for you

or you have 50,000 people cheering against you.

Let's go!

It's just… It's hard.

Emotion is involved in every shot.

Every hole.

It's gonna be huge. It's gonna be the mother of all Ryder Cups.

Everything they've worked for in their life has led to this moment.

It's great to be in a New York state of mind.

A new dawn breaks on a battlefield unlike any other.

Bethpage Black.

Come Sunday, it will set with only one of two destinies complete.

Welcome to the 45th Ryder Cup.

Bethpage Black, it's really breathtaking.

It's really, like, stunning.

You get a real sense of the grand stage that this is gonna be.

So quiet right now.

There's so much anticipation.

It's really exciting to be on the grounds

and start to feel like it's kind of becoming a reality.

Come around me here so I can talk to all of you.

Fellas,

we are gonna be relentless competitors on this golf course.

Out there, that is our arena.

This is the best team on the planet right now.

And we're gonna carry ourselves that way. We're gonna be cocky, confident.

This is our time.

I want everybody at this moment to remember what happened at Rome.

Put your hands together for the winners of the 2023 Ryder Cup,

Team Europe!

The US is coming off a really humiliating defeat

in Rome a couple of years ago.

And these are prideful guys. The best players in the world.

The last thing they wanna do is lose again,

have to wait another two years, and to lose at home.

We have an opportunity to play that same team this week.

They come into this arena, they have nowhere to run, nowhere to hide.

Okay?

Everybody in here.

This week, this is our home course.

This week, this is the course we grew up on.

USA on three. I love everybody.

One, two, three.

USA!

- Morning. - Hi.

- Morning. - Good morning.

Are we wearing the hats or no hats this year?

You know what? I… I don't know.

I think they do sometimes.

Let me try yours.

We got the same size.

When you've won a Ryder Cup, like,

you never wanna not win a Ryder Cup.

We have 11 of the same 12 guys that we had in the last Ryder Cup.

We have a WhatsApp group still from Rome.

I think it's gonna be a huge advantage

to have that continuity and to have, obviously, a repeat captain as well.

- New York subway kind of vibes. - Did you have them made?

Yeah. I don't know.

Just told them to make me something cool. That's what they came up with.

- All right. Just need a little coffee now. - Just another coffee.

I'm so proud that I've played four Ryder Cups.

I just go into them trying to be the best teammate.

What would make me the happiest about it all,

aside from the team winning,

is if, you know, one of my teammates got asked the question

and they would say, "Tommy was the best teammate that you could imagine."

I don't like talking about myself that much.

But, like, I think I bring, like, a lot of glue to the whole team.

And people laugh at me. I'm always in the team room.

I'm always last to bed. I'm always first up.

I love being there. I love being around people.

This is definitely the most united team ever assembled.

And obviously, that familiarity that we all have with one another

enables us to focus on the job at hand.

- You okay, Joe? - Not thinking about chemistry.

The team is formed. Let's go.

All right, hit me!

Hit me.

I'll give you one free one. I won't move.

- I can't either. - Let's go.

- No. Anywhere you want. - His ball sack.

- We gotta get out of the way. - Somebody throw the damn ball.

- Oh, I'm sure you're gonna get a shot. - Jesus Christ, man!

Throwing it so hard!

Use it, Scottie!

All right, players. We're ready for the shots.

The teams' makeup are very different.

The United States have six rookies of their twelve,

so half of their team have never played in this kind of environment before.

There's been this sense in recent Ryder Cups

that the Europeans are better just because they mesh better together.

And the Americans just have to find some way to reverse that.

To take a dozen guys who just play an individual sport

and are only ever looking out for themselves,

and bring them together to play on a team

in one of the most intense environments in all of golf.

Holy shit!

Oh my God!

I'm very excited.

I wouldn't even say necessarily nervous.

More just, like, anxious and excited and ready to kind of get it going.

Yes.

It's gonna be awesome to kind of get some advice from some of the other guys.

Learn how other guys maybe strategize golf courses.

How they take on different golf shots.

Ben, Cam, and I, we kind of know that we're the rookies,

so we're looking out for each other. We pump each other up a little bit more.

I'm pretty nervous. I want my game to feel tight.

I want to feel confident

because there's more people to let down instead of just myself this week.

Did you ever actually dream of playing in the Ryder Cup?

What was that level of belief?

Yeah, I did watch, of course, Ryder Cups growing up.

Did I ever dream or think I would be on a team? No.

You know, I think that kind of stems back to self-belief issues.

And you know, once I had my first daughter,

her favorite song was "Let It Go," and I just try to go by that mantra.

Can you sing it for us now?

Let it go!

Oh my God. So nice.

There's a lot of new blood on this team.

But the US has an incredible, deep, talented roster.

They've got Schauffele, who won two major championships.

They've got the best player in the world in Scottie Scheffler.

We're a very, very deep, very talented team. Very hungry team.

Nice, JT.

Just like I taught ya.

Seven of the top eight in the world rankings currently

are Americans.

And with the home crowd support behind them,

I think they… they are the favorites.

Bryson! Bryson!

For as competitive as the Ryder Cup always is,

going back to 2014, all of the Ryder Cups have been won by the home team.

And there's a couple reasons why.

Number one is the home captain having the ability to set up the golf course.

Also, the crowd.

Yes!

You get the crowd on your side, it's a very real thing.

You feel that momentum. You get the support.

New York fans are incredible.

I couldn't be more excited for the opportunity

to hopefully get them riled up and excited for what's to come.

USA! USA!

Scottie!

One of the biggest achievements in the game is to win an away Ryder Cup.

The fans are gonna be loud, and everybody expects it to be boisterous.

All right, Europe!

Well, I think it's New York, isn't it?

We all know how rowdy they can get. How spirited they can get.

You know, that makes it, uh, extra challenging for us.

But we have superstars on our team.

They've been in that environment before.

This is gonna be my seventh Ryder Cup. Something that I'm… I'm very proud of.

Myself and Rory being the only two guys on the team

that have tasted a victory on foreign soil,

it's rarefied air.

Winning an away Ryder Cup for either team

has been a challenge in the last couple decades,

so, um, I think that's what we're all looking for, is a little advantage.

What advice have you given to the younger guys?

Um, I'm very lucky.

I get support pretty much everywhere I go when I play golf,

and, um, it's gonna feel a little different for me this week.

So it's really just trying to find the balance

of using that energy from the crowd to… to fuel your performance.

But that's the challenge of playing away, right?

- Hi, y'all. - Hi! How are you?

- Oh my gosh! - I love this.

- What? - Waiting on my date.

- Okay. That's right. - Whatever you say.

Seeing, you know, all these plans that you pine over for months and months

come to life, it's just spectacular.

Everybody, right up here for me. One, two, three.

Good.

Again. One, two, three. Good.

Having done that job in Italy,

I think there's a ton of pressure on you as the host.

And I think they care a lot about doing a great job for Team USA.

And last one for me. One, two, three. Thank you very much.

I lied. One more. Okay.

It's so special.

No one could even begin to understand how much work and time and sacrifice…

Missing kids' birthday parties and going to weddings alone

over how many years

to be able to relax and celebrate being there.

Like, okay, this is why.

We're leaving, brothers?

Yeah. All done. Thank you.

- Thank you. - Thank you.

USA! USA!

USA! USA! USA! USA!

Go, USA, baby! Let's go!

Welcome to a scene unlike any other in the game.

The buildup has been enormous.

50,000 fans expected to be out there each day.

Woo-hoo!

Started lining up before the sun came up.

Scottie, Scottie Scheffler!

And it is the greatest spectacle in golf.

For the first two days of the Ryder Cup, they're team matches.

So these guys play by themselves throughout the whole year,

but in the first two days, they need a partner.

And that's a huge decision for the captain.

Fireworks in match one

with the powerhouses of Bryson DeChambeau and Justin Thomas

taking on Tyrrell Hatton and Jon Rahm.

It's important for the captain to get the energy right,

and it also has to make sense from a statistical standpoint.

Their games have to be compatible, but also their personalities.

You know who's hitting first?

I don't. I gotta think it's Bryson, right?

Bryson, first tee, driving the green.

- Yeah, it's… - Obviously.

Yeah, I think it has to be Bryson hitting the first shot.

Statistically, though, it's better for him to tee off on the even holes.

You're… you're… you're too lost in the numbers, Luke.

This is the Ryder Cup. Throw those numbers out the window.

The opening tee at the Ryder Cup.

Thirty miles east of Times Square on this morning on Long Island,

Bethpage Black, the People's Country Club, is ready.

- Here we go, Bobby. - We got this! We got this!

Make more noise! You're getting drowned out!

Come on! Come on!

As soon as a Ryder Cup week begins, it's us against them.

And the scoring is winner takes all.

There are 28 matches over three days, and therefore 28 points up for grabs.

All of the matches are head-to-head, and each match is worth one point

or a half point awarded to each side in the event of a tie.

Because Europe is the reigning champion,

they only need 14 points to retain the Ryder Cup,

while the US would need 14½ points to take it away from them.

USA! USA!

Good morning and welcome to the first day of the 45th Ryder Cup.

This is match number one.

Bryson DeChambeau, Justin Thomas

will take on Jon Rahm and Tyrrell Hatton.

Just you and me, my guy.

Takes every single emotion you've got, just turn the volume up to 11.

Does find the rough.

Now on the tee, Bryson DeChambeau.

Keegan Bradley said he wanted to lead with a spark.

This is that man, Bryson DeChambeau.

Oh, he's nailed it.

- That is perfect. - Would you look at that?

Wow!

That's how you get the crowd going.

That's a good start.

USA! USA! USA!

What an opening moment for Team USA.

USA! USA! USA! USA!

So far, this hole has kind of gone exactly the way

the US has wanted.

This for the icing on the cake

to go one up through one in a home Ryder Cup.

Get in the hole!

What a start.

That's what they wanted.

USA! USA! USA!

Just as designed for captain Keegan Bradley.

USA, one up.

Rory! Rory, Rory!

Come to a PGA TOUR event

and McIlroy and Tommy Fleetwood, they are loved by crowds.

Not this week.

Tommy.

Come on. Just keep going.

Brilliant.

And they have been so far.

McIlroy.

Chance to win the hole.

What a team these two have been.

Match one could be in jeopardy for the Americans.

Just went left on him, so a chance for Europe

to get up in the first match.

Rahm walks it in. Europe takes the lead.

Momentum certainly on the side of Europe right now here in the first session.

They've kind of taken the crowd out early here.

Was not expecting day one to go like this.

Like, obviously it's not over.

It's just not the way you hope day one goes in America, in New York.

Justin Thomas now.

He's been called the heartbeat of the US side.

They need the defib machine right now.

- Wow. - Oh!

That'll do it.

We needed that putt.

What a jolt for Luke Donald.

Damn, that sucks. That sucks.

And now Fleetwood to close it out.

Fleetwood Mac. Another massive margin for Europe.

Olé, olé, olé, olé…

That man's done everything right so far in two Ryder Cups.

This European team came in with so much confidence,

and they've… they've done exactly what they needed to do,

which is silence the crowd right off the bat.

The crowd, I think they're on mute.

I think that's literally where it is right now. Um…

But, yeah, more of the same. Come on, Europe.

- That's Air Force One. - Air Force One.

America bringing in reinforcements.

That is… Yeah.

As we get set for the afternoon session,

a glorious start for Luke Donald,

the European captain who's trying to make history.

Crowd is bigger and louder now, Dan.

USA! USA! USA! USA!

You felt the US were trying their hardest

to make that first tee experience

as loud and obnoxious and, um, supportive of the US teams as much as possible.

You know, make us feel, um, like we're… we're definitely the visitor.

There's a new spectator in the house,

the President of the United States, Donald Trump.

USA! USA! USA!

Any time you see the president, it adds a weight.

A feeling that doesn't exist in a lot of sporting events.

You felt like it was gonna give the whole team a jolt.

That's certainly what Bradley's hoping for.

USA! USA!

It's the dream scenario for Bryson DeChambeau.

Gonna shake hands there with the president.

And he's first to greet him as he comes out of the tunnel.

President Trump's got golf shoes on.

If the Americans don't get it going, the president might wanna play.

Walking out with the president of the United States,

it's one of the craziest moments in my life.

I tried to keep myself as calm as possible.

Well, if there was ever a stage for a comeback, it was just set.

There is a sense of urgency for the United States.

First blood to the United States, J.J. Spaun.

We opened the show talking about American rookies

coming into a tough situation.

So far, they've all stood up.

Young is next to go at this par four.

Any point you earn in one of those events is special,

but I think, you know, I only get one chance at a first match,

and, you know, I did my best to make it count.

Gets that club in such a nice position at the top.

Oh, wow, what a shot.

Young with a chance for his fourth birdie in this match.

Five up lead for him and Justin Thomas.

The pride of Sleepy Hollow, Cameron Young.

The rookies are finally bringing some energy for the Americans,

and it's starting to look like there's a little bit of hope.

What a debut into the Ryder Cup.

What confidence he's displayed.

This might make Keegan Bradley think about,

"What do I do with Cam Young tomorrow morning?"

- Get in the hole! - Get in!

And that will be conceded.

It is a victory for Cameron Young and Justin Thomas. 6&5.

We played so well,

and we felt like a victory like that could just spark something in everybody else.

Certainly having a better afternoon than morning,

but they needed to, didn't they?

You never know what a little spark will do.

Griffin on seven.

In the hole!

It's tracking. It's tracking. Ben Griffin!

Bringing the energy.

What a moment.

Ben holes this putt out of nowhere,

and bang, he's right involved in the match.

Justin Rose is next.

This is crazy. Every time the US seems to be building

a little bit of momentum, Europe answers right back.

Do it! Do it! Do it!

Justin Rose, right back at you. What a response.

Holing that one on top of Ben was like, "We're not going away."

"This is not gonna be easy."

We're trained in match play to always expect our opponent to make the next shot,

but, man, come on. Like, that was my moment.

Seventh Ryder Cup for Rose. Still making putts like that.

This is for birdie to tie the hole for Scheffler.

Oh!

Scottie Scheffler not looking like Scottie Scheffler there.

This is great news for Europe.

Scottie Scheffler is not on fire.

Oh man, sticks it right in there.

Go, Tommy! Let's go!

Tommy Fleetwood has tied it up.

All the sudden, it's feeling like Friday morning all over again.

Come on!

Yeah!

Tommy Fleetwood has a chance to win the hole.

Get in!

Which he takes. And Europe go up in that second match.

European fans well represented here.

And loud with the lead here in this Ryder Cup.

Eighteen.

We have a great battle with Ben and Bryson.

Justin Rose with a birdie putt to win this match.

I sort of remembered a little bit like Rome.

I had a putt late in the afternoon and was able to kind of hole it

and have that moment where I shared it with the whole team.

I turned around. I was like, "For you, for you, for you, for you."

And I kind of wanted this one for Tommy.

Justin Rose buries another one for a winner.

The vision we had for the day was kind of encapsulated

by being able to hole that putt on 18,

give each other a hug, and come off victorious.

Yeah, it was huge.

Fleetwood finishes off a fantastic Friday.

Justin is somebody that I've looked up to for a long time. I've learned from him.

It's always so cool to watch how he plays when he's in contention.

And we will go into Saturday

with Europe comfortably in front, 5½ to 2½.

I mean, I'm pleasantly surprised that we're… we're winning.

Um, that's obviously always the goal.

Foursomes are a tricky thing to get right.

It's like a puzzle you're trying to put together.

There's lots of different parts to it.

Golf course, personality matchups, statistics. Um…

Yeah, there's so much that goes into it.

And I think, you know, if you spend enough time on it, um,

and obviously if it works out, then you feel pretty smart about yourself.

There's a pretty big lead after the first day,

but still a lot of points to be played for,

so, um, we're just gonna keep riding that momentum.

Welcome, everybody, to day two here at this Ryder Cup.

The Americans are in deep trouble.

New York's starting to look like Rome.

We're ready for a fight.

Seems like New York's woken up a little bit here. Crowd's going.

Uh, I'm excited. I got a good feeling about today.

DeChambeau!

Xander, this for par to tie.

This is so critical.

Oh!

And now Fleetwood with the putter.

- Oh my goodness. - Turns it right back around.

The Europeans look awfully strong right now.

A couple of blues already on the board.

Standing in the bunker, Rahm, here at the eighth.

Oh, that's silly.

Oh my gosh!

Much more than luck.

- Wow. - This is right of it.

Oh my goodness.

A calamity.

Not the start at all that the United States was hoping for.

Down 8½ to 3½.

McIlroy. A lot of chatter from the crowd and not good comments, so…

Well, they're already at it.

And Rory dealt with it on day one as well.

Everybody expected in the buildup that the fans could be boisterous.

But all of a sudden, it took a turn.

- Fuck you, Rory! - Rory!

No pressure!

Take all the time you need, Rory. You're still gonna choke.

The American fans felt like they probably had to come out

and try and help their team on Saturday, We were so far ahead.

And, yeah, it was… it was interesting.

It was wild.

Teletubby!

Europe is a joke!

You want Ryder cups to be different. You want them to be high energy.

You just don't want it to overstep a mark.

That bunker's looking tasty.

Guys, shut the… …up!

There was one moment where Rory didn't hit that putt,

I think, for five or six minutes.

Easy putt! Easy putt!

He's backed off again.

It's one thing to give him a hard time, but, uh, you can't do it

when the guy's over the shot.

Don't get angry, Shane.

When they started doing it in our backswings

and started trying to properly put us off when we were actually playing,

that really pissed me off.

It's funny. When you stand up to them, they're very quiet.

Come on!

Just a combustible situation out here right now.

Just the crowds are amazingly involved in the process.

Some of the videos that emerged were… were shocking.

There was this moment with Rory McIlroy and his wife, Erica, walking past a crowd

and, all of a sudden, a can of beer lands by Erica's head.

Yeah.

This becomes, like, the dominant storyline.

In real time and even more so afterwards.

So I'm actually the one that took this video,

and in real time, I thought the same thing everyone else did,

that this was a beer thrown from the crowd

at the European team.

But when I rewatched it, slowed down, zoomed in,

it became clear that there's maybe a more confusing narrative

that maybe the beer was accidentally knocked out of somebody's hand.

But the reason everyone initially thought it was an attack

was because there was a pretty ominous feeling on the grounds

that I don't remember seeing at another golf tournament. Ever.

This one has crossed the line more than a few times.

It was against the spirit of what we do in Ryder Cups.

And you could see it almost affecting

the American players a little bit in a way.

They were trying to hush the crowd as well.

You've had multiple instances

where Justin Thomas has been trying to quiet the crowd down.

Temperatures and tensions can rise at any given time in a Ryder Cup.

Plus, the atmosphere that was created by the crowds meant

the players were on a knife edge at any given point.

There was an incident where Justin Rose was getting ready to hit his putt.

It's my putt here, boys.

Okay. Thank you.

Rose said it was his putt.

Well, yeah, that was a heated exchange there.

Justin Rose just telling the caddie of Bryson DeChambeau, Greg Bodine,

to get out of his way as he was reading his putt.

Is he jawing at Rose?

It's gotten heated.

- Whoa! - Whoa.

Golf has got a reputation of being a gentlemen's sport.

And it wasn't a gentlemen's sport on Saturday afternoon.

Come on!

I don't care what people call me,

because I'm a grown man. I can deal with that.

And I think Rory and Tommy talked about trying to win with excellence and class,

and, yeah, we tried to do that as well.

Come on!

It's not for me to say.

People can be their own judge of whether they took it too far.

You know, I'm just proud of us for being able to win, um, today

with, you know, what we had to go through.

If America's gonna win,

they need to change that scoreboard in their favor.

This is not over. We know that. Let's not jump ahead.

But it's good as over.

No, it's up.

- You guys are better at this. - Never seen anything like it.

They were a heavyweight puncher throwing punches at us.

And we were taking them and giving back stronger ones.

Well, the only good thing we can say

from an American perspective about Saturday at the Ryder Cup,

it's over.

That's it.

You know, when you accept this role, you…

you know the consequences that come with it.

I was in the back room with the captains,

you know, staring at the score,

and it was sad to look at that score.

But, you know, I had a job to do to go speak to the team.

I really had to, like… really had to get my shit together.

I just reminded them about how cool it would be

to tell your 16-year-old self that you were going out to play for your country

at Bethpage Black the next day.

How far everyone in this room has come to get to this point,

to even have this opportunity.

And they kept…

they kept saying, "We're gonna win this."

I could tell that they meant it.

And I was like, "Wow, who knows?"

Come Sunday, you know, everything's a bit tense.

Everything's, um, heightened.

Your mind is telling you, like, "We're fine."

But there's always this feeling that anything can happen.

Look at that.

You know, talking about "take care of your own point."

"Let's try and win by a record margin." That's the stuff of dreams.

That wasn't very good, was it? Let's hope I can do better than that.

Fuck's sake.

We're in a very, very strong position,

but we can't let up.

We have to go out there and try and win the session.

We poked the bear, now. We expect them to come out swinging.

There have been final day comebacks in Ryder Cup history,

but if the US is to win this Ryder Cup at Bethpage,

it will be by far the most monumental in history.

USA! USA!

Come on! USA! Let's go!

We want this shit turned around, MJ.

- No shit. - Yeah.

We've had a late twist with Victor Hovland withdrawing

from today's matches with a neck injury,

which means Harris English sits out,

and half a point has gone to either side.

So there's a rule in Ryder Cup that if a player withdraws,

each team is awarded half a point as if that match was halved,

and the day begins.

So all of a sudden, it's 12 to 5 for the Europeans entering Sunday.

Two points away,

and Keegan Bradley wondering how it's all gonna go today.

Yeah, that feeling's pretty… pretty awful because there's nothing you can do.

I didn't know this practice happened.

You know, 99.9% of the captains have never had to deal with this.

The Americans aren't happy, but rules are rules.

And now the Europeans just need two points out of 11 matches

to retain the Ryder Cup.

And the Americans are without one of their top-ranked players

in Harris English.

Harris English, he handled this with the most class.

I don't even know the word for it.

He keeps bringing up how he doesn't want to make this about himself

and he wants to do what's right for the team.

And I know how much this means to the players,

and I know how hard they're trying,

and I know that they want nothing more than to win for Harris English.

The Europeans are only two points away

from retaining the Ryder Cup and making history on US soil.

To earn a comeback,

the US team needs 9½ points.

They have to dominate every single match.

There's no margin for error.

And… I think we're all just holding our breath.

This is match number one

between the European team, represented by Justin Rose…

…against the United States of America team,

represented by Cameron Young!

Having the opportunity to lead the team out on Sunday is

an incredible honor.

To go out number one is definitely… You know, it's a statement.

I was playing well, and I think my Sundays

throughout the course of the season have been strong.

Honestly, a huge honor to go out first.

I know Justin Rose has one of the best records in his Ryder Cup career,

and I know I've gotta play some great golf to have really any kind of chance.

Young didn't even play the first session.

Now he's the first man out in singles.

We knew we had to get Cameron Young on the course.

He was playing exceptional golf. Probably the best on the team.

Get in the hole!

Good-looking.

Oh, that is right what they needed.

Cam Young, the native New Yorker.

There's America up early.

So far through two days, Europe has been relentless.

The smasher Bryson, full swing.

I think he likes it. Well, he's chasing it.

Wow, best drive of the week so far by anyone.

Bryson's best.

Bradley sends him off down the hill with even more adrenaline.

Young for birdie at the 6th.

Get in the hole!

That's his third birdie in the first six holes.

Go to Justin Thomas here at 6.

Just off the fairway.

Oh! There it is!

Our first deuce from the fairway.

Soak it in, Justin Thomas.

Your side has not heard anything like that all week.

USA! USA!

To the 7th.

Par putt. Bryson gotta have it.

Five up through seven. Amazing.

Bryson, if he loses that match early on and he's only played for two hours,

this could be over quick.

Ben Griffin ready to go.

Need a minor miracle today.

I got off to a great start.

Used a lot of that fuel from Saturday straight into that Sunday round.

Ben Griffin, a chance to win the hole and does.

Keegan made a point,

just don't look at what other guys are doing, and focus on your match.

But I wanted to see what guys were doing.

Bryson. This is a must-make, being four down.

It has to start somewhere.

If there's to be a fightback, that might be the moment.

USA! USA! USA! USA! USA!

McIlroy has backed off a couple of times.

Every time that they've heckled, he's responded,

and usually it's been positive.

Ooh! And not a good one.

He needs to keep his cool

'cause that's the worst shot you will ever see from Rory McIlroy.

Let's head across to 14th where Justin Rose is first to putt for birdie.

Oh wow.

Truly gutsy stuff from Justin Rose, isn't it?

What a good match.

Justin Thomas has bounced back to take a blue off the board.

Keegan Bradley watched it.

We're out there, chipping away,

and we saw some putts go down.

We saw some celebration from the guys, and it was awesome.

J.J. Spaun.

To win the hole.

He was two down through three. He's taken the lead.

I gotta keep pressing. There's no letup.

I just remember that US Open finish I had.

If I could do it there, I can do it here.

J.J. Spaun continues to play well after yesterday's late surge.

This is Ben Griffin for a birdie.

He and Højgaard are tied.

Griffin from way out.

Being in the third to last group, I had six or seven matches in front of me,

so I could hear all the energy at the same time.

Certainly, we're not gonna pull off this miracle.

In my mind, I'm doing my part to try to win this match. That's all I can control.

But back of my head, I'm like, "This would be crazy if this actually happens."

This is DeChambeau to win the hole on Fitzpatrick,

who's in for bogey.

Gotta make it, big D!

Looks like we might have a Ryder Cup on our hands, folks.

USA! USA! USA! USA!

With the course, the way it was set up,

no rough, obviously the greens were soft,

it makes it hard to separate yourself from players.

And we saw that in the singles.

And so a lot of the matches went to 18.

Justin Rose tied with Cameron Young.

This for another birdie.

Never was on line.

When he missed, it's shocking, honestly.

It's hard to believe that I have this opportunity in front of me.

So Young will have his chance

to take out one of Europe's all-time greats to win the match.

You have two different things in your mind at the time.

You're like, "On one hand,

what's my process look like to execute this putt well?"

And on the other hand, I'm sitting there, like,

"I have a putt to beat Justin Rose on 18 in a Ryder Cup in New York."

And Cameron Young has come full circle.

It has given the entire US side some hope.

In the hole!

Back at 18, right rough for Justin Thomas.

Justin Thomas!

Again, it is still improbable,

but the United States trying to pull off,

by far, the greatest final day comeback in Ryder Cup history.

This is a big putt for Fitzpatrick from seven feet for par to tie the hole

and keep his one-up lead.

And DeChambeau has caught up with one left.

He looks like he could lift up a house right now.

At 18.

And Fleetwood has given JT a chance to win it.

Get in the hole!

Two clutch birdie putts by the Americans at the 18th.

Maybe the impossible is starting to become possible.

Over at 15, Xander Schauffele, a 4&3 winner.

He takes down Rahm.

All of a sudden, the Americans are taking down Europe's best.

No matter what way it turns out from here,

I think Keegan will be very pleased with what happened today.

- Go, baby! - Let's go, man!

Let's go, baby!

We were hearing American cheers nonstop.

I'm like, "They're feeling it, guys. Keep putting the pressure."

Boy, is Henley making some putts.

He's two up.

As I got around the back nine, I lost at 13 and 14 and I was like,

"This could actually be the biggest disaster of all time."

It just all of a sudden feels like we're just running downhill.

The unthinkable starts to creep into your mind, for sure.

And over at 17, Scheffler to keep that one-up lead.

Scheffler, winless thus far,

hoping he finally gets a W on Sunday.

Get in the hole!

J.J. Spaun rolling it in.

- It's gotten contagious for the US. - The putters have flipped.

The Americans are making all the important putts.

That was the time I finally looked at the board and saw, like, a lot of red.

Said, "Oh boy, here we go."

And then on the back collar here at 17,

Cantlay has to make to continue it with Åberg.

Not this time for Patty Ice.

And Europe on the precipice.

The cup is on the line right here.

If Bryson DeChambeau misses this putt,

just like that, Europe retains the cup.

But DeChambeau holds off Europe for just a little longer.

A great effort by Bryson. Again, five down through the first seven holes.

He's able to get the half point with Fitzpatrick.

Well, that means that Europe are now

within half a point of retaining, at 13½ to 8½.

Got a half point from Fitz.

Okay, that's half.

You know, you're looking at leaderboards. Every match is close.

Shane Lowry at 15.

Two down against Russell Henley.

Ho, ho, oh, big shot right there.

What a three from Lowry.

Halves the deficit.

And coming over to 18.

World number one over world number two.

One up victory for Scottie Scheffler.

US still has to run the table down the stretch.

Over here at 17,

J.J. Spaun needs just two putts to win the match on Sepp Straka.

That's gonna do it for J.J. Spaun.

Let's go!

We'll see more of him in Ryder Cups.

Having JT, Cam, Pat all right there on the green watching my match

and everyone just storming the green like I just scored a winning touchdown,

it was, like, a feeling I've never had before on a golf course.

The US clinging to hopes.

They gotta get the full point

in all four matches.

Europe could retain the cup right here if Lowry wins this hole.

- Oh, Shane Lowry! - Yep.

Walking down to 18, I said to my caddie,

"I've got the chance to do one of the coolest things in my life."

Literally, I said that to him.

And I think the fact that I said that and I was aware of the situation I was in,

um, really helped me.

When you're nervous and you're in those situations,

you need to get it out. I need to talk about it.

Russell to go first.

The US needs to run the tables.

Cannot afford one halved game.

- We've got it. - We're gonna have to.

Amazing.

They've actually put themselves in position to have a chance.

To win the full point.

Get in the hole!

Aw!

So Henley opens the door, and Lowry's trying to jump in here.

Lowry with this putt to tie up this match.

It's mad what goes through your head in those moments.

There's only one Shane Lowry!

The crowd at the back of the 18th are so close to the edge of the green.

The American players and wives,

you can just see them jumping around the place.

USA!

Chance for Lowry. This is your moment, Shane.

This is it. To retain the cup for Europe

with one stroke of the putter.

I don't think I'll ever have or feel that much pressure again.

And Shane Lowry has done it!

Europe pulls off one of the biggest upsets on US soil.

We did it.

That's what counts, you know, 14½. Fuckin' A, you did it.

Shane Lowry, you look in disbelief. Tell us all.

I mean, I've been so lucky to experience amazing things in this game.

Ah.

That was the hardest couple of hours of my whole life, honestly.

I…

I just can't believe that putt went in. I stood over it going, "This is it."

And, like, the Ryder Cup means everything to me, honestly.

- Partner! - Partner!

You beast. You absolute beast!

It wasn't even joy. It was like relief.

I think that whole celebration was just pure relief.

Honestly, I think the Ryder Cup is everything. I really do.

Appreciate you. I appreciate you, brother.

I know it wasn't the same but…

Shit happens.

Like, it doesn't always work out, and so…

So grateful to have gotten to experience this Ryder Cup.

I mean, it's really cool to have been a part of that team and see the fight

and see the passion from every single player.

I'm really proud of you. You really almost had 'em.

We weren't really supposed to do this, but

I just escaped the team for a little bit

and just went and found, like, the family area

and just shared, like, uh,

I don't know, like a 20-minute moment with, um,

yeah, my family,

Dana's dad, and just kind of soaked it all in.

It was pretty cool.

I congratulated Luke and told him just how really incredible it was

to watch his team play the way they did at such a high level.

I can say, without question,

I think Luke is the best European Ryder Cup captain ever.

You know, in sports, sometimes there's Monday morning quarterbacking.

Is there anything you might have done differently?

I don't know. They… they played better. They deserve to win. They're a great team.

I'm never gonna get over this. It's just never gonna happen.

You're getting sacked In the morning!

I'm really emotionally tired from this.

You're getting sacked

I'm trying to put this behind me, but it's impossible.

I've come to the realization

that I actually just have to figure out a way of living with this.

Way to go, Keegan!

We are the champions!

No time for losers!

Luke, you've just joined Tony Jacklin

as the only European Ryder Cup captain to win home and away.

What does this victory mean to you? What does it mean to your team?

It's got to be the most stressful 12 hours of my life. Um…

Shout-out to the Americans and Keegan and his captaincy. Um…

But this means a lot, obviously, to me and the team.

Couldn't be more proud of these guys, what they've gone through.

And now they'll be talked for generations to come now

as someone that will go down in history.

Shoes off if you won the cup! Shoes off!

Oh, a great feeling. Um…

It was very tense for a long time today,

but, uh, the boys grinded and kept going, and it was amazing.

Just so happy for all of these people.

Shoes off if you won the cup! Shoes off…

Two more years! Two more years! Two more years!

Yes, we lost.

It was tough, but we didn't shy away.

We didn't let everything fold. We went out on Sunday and just fought our hardest.

We fought for the country. We fought for Keegan.

We fought for each other, and it showed.

I think by the time the week's over, we all created this… this new bond.

And it was just so cool to be accepted into, like, this circle of guys

and be treated as one of their own.

It's been certainly a highlight of my career.

It's such an incredible week.

I mean, main takeaway is just how much I would love to skip two years ahead

and go try to beat that same team again.

I will be forever grateful for this group.

It's such a weird thing to have such a…

such a soft spot in your heart

for something that has such a horrible ending.

But then I think about all the moments that I had with the guys

hanging out together.

You know, all the times that we had leading up and the dinners that we had.

I would just love to win one Ryder Cup before I'm done.

Like, literally, Keegan could not have been a better captain.

He did everything with so much passion.

All the guys told me they couldn't believe how great of an experience they had.

It sucks that we weren't able to win for him.

Hopefully, people can remember this Ryder Cup for the fight we had on Sunday.

Keegan's been a great guy.

He's been there for us. He's been very vocal.

Did such a great job inspiring us,

and he's been the leader.

Keegan's fanta… I thought he did an awesome job.

So I know it was a hard situation for him,

but I think he embraced it incredibly well.

Perfect captain, to me.

And I couldn't have asked for any more than that.

And, you know, I'd love to play for him again.

This win, I think, means… …so much to Team Europe.

The gravity of the achievement was not lost on us.

It was almost a little bit surreal that we'd done it.

Celebrating as a team, there's nothing like it.

Yes!

For me personally, it was like, I want this day to last as long as it can.

Europe's victory over the Americans is historic.

They pulled of their first win on foreign soil since Medina.

And it's also only the second time in history

that a captain has won back-to-back.

It's kind of a pinch-me moment

when someone says you're the greatest Ryder Cup captain ever.

You know, I found my calling in a way.

I get a lot of the plaudits as captain,

but I'm very fortunate to be a small cog in a very much larger plan of people

who care about what the Ryder Cup represents.

It's been a blessing, really, and, um, my job

is to keep imprinting those lessons and the history on those players,

making them feel they're playing for more than themselves.

Would you do it again?
