Overview

  • Before the Sunday singles began, Europe’s lead moved to 12-5 and the holders now need just two more points to retain the Cup.
  • Europe reached 11.5-4.5 through Saturday, a seven-point cushion that is the largest margin entering singles in the modern era since 1979.
  • Relentless pairs play set the tone, with Jon Rahm improving to 6-0 in foursomes and the McIlroy-Fleetwood partnership staying unbeaten as Europe won both Saturday sessions 3-1.
  • U.S. struggles deepened as world No. 1 Scottie Scheffler became the first top-ranked player to start a Ryder Cup 0-3, sharpening questions over the American lineup.
  • Crowd flashpoints shaped the backdrop, with McIlroy confronting heckling as security was stepped up, and President Donald Trump attending Friday but not returning on Saturday.
