Yeah, this over. Seemed like the US might be able to keep it interesting at least, but dropping that half point is just demoralizing.

They at least kept it interesting up until the last 10 minutes. Spieth and Fowler all with some brutal shots down the stretch here.

Well done by Europe. It’s such an interesting and enjoyable format. Heck, just have Rahm, Hovland, and Rose miss their putts on 18 on Friday and the USA is suddenly not such in a terrible position.

An article on the 2025 Ryder Cup:

A close match, new Captain America and more way too early predictions for the 2025 Ryder Cup at Bethpage Black

Is the Ryder Cup due for a close contest? Which new stars will shine? Will fans become a storyline?

A close match, new Captain America and more way too early predictions for the 2025 Ryder Cup at Bethpage Black​

New York fans will be BRUTAL to the Europeans​

PGA Championship

Fans cheer for Dustin Johnson on the 14th hole during the final round of the PGA Championship at Bethpage Black.

I’ve always appreciated how European fans can go from bipartisan applause and respect for their opponents to the most creative insults you’ll ever hear in a matter of moments. It’s truly an art form of fandom.

New York crowds, however, can be as vocal and hostile as they come, so the Europeans better not be expecting any pleasantries when they step foot on Long Island in 2025, especially after the beating they gave the Americans for most of last week. That said, the first tee atmosphere is going to be electric, believe that.

Who takes the reigns as captain?​

Given the fallout with LIV Golf, Team Europe has seemingly moved on from past stalwarts like Sergio Garcia, Lee Westwood, Graeme McDowell and Henrik Stenson, who was slated to captain this year’s squad before he made the jump to the Saudi-backed circuit.

The Europeans would be off their rockers to not select Donald again for another go, especially given how the team rallied around him this year.

As for the U.S., it’d be shocking if Zach Johnson returned as captain. Maybe Steve Stricker gets another run at home to try to revitalize the 19-9 magic he stirred up at Whistling Straits. Tiger Woods has long been rumored to captain the U.S. side in 2025, especially after Phil Mickelson’s actions over the last year and a half has seemingly removed him from contention.

American captains have been easy to predict in recent years, but after another loss on the road, our Eamon Lynch wrote that changes are afoot for the U.S. squad, so don’t rule out a pivot to a new way of thinking, either.

McIlroy: I was too 'judgmental' of LIV defectors

Rory McIlroy says he regrets being too quick to judge players who joined LIV Golf and accepts that the Saudi-backed tour is part of the sport.

Check cleared.

Also, golf is still not a sport and a waste of good land.

Well, that and his boy Rahm left for LIV.

I would argue that pickle ball is not a sport either and that cemeteries are an even bigger waste of space.
