The Ryder Cup 2025 is underway and Europe enjoyed a fabulous Friday to take a 5.5-2.5 lead over Team USA as President Donald Trump sparked a raucous atmosphere at Bethpage Black in New York.
Europe captain Luke Donald inspired a sizzling start for his side with a 3-1 win in foursomes behind Jon Rahm and Tyrrell Hatton’s huge 4&3win over Bryson DeChambeau and Justin Thomas.
While Scottie Scheffler’s Ryder Cup woes continued, alongside world No3 Russell Henley, with a 5&3 defeat to sensational combination of Ludvig Aberg and Matt Fizpatrick. Rory McIlroy and Tommy Fleetwood proved too strong for Collin Morikawa and Harris English, dominating the match to win 5&4.
And there was more blue on the leaderboard in the fourballs, with Rahm delivering another point alongside Sepp Straka, downing Scheffler and rookie JJ Spaun 3&2, followed by Fleetwood and Justin Rose’s 1up victory over DeChambeau and rookie Ben Griffin. Thomas rallied alongside New Yorker Cameron Young, storming to a 6&5 win over Ludvig Aberg and rookie Rasmus Hojgaard. While there was drama at the last with McIlroy squandering a birdie chance to seize another victory and settling for a half point alongside Shane Lowry against Patrick Cantlay and Sam Burns.
