Overview
- Europe leads 11.5–4.5 after winning three of four Foursomes in the morning and three of four Fourballs in the afternoon on Saturday.

- Rory McIlroy and Tommy Fleetwood, plus Jon Rahm with Tyrrell Hatton, delivered multiple victories, while U.S. points came from Bryson DeChambeau with Cameron Young and later J.J. Spaun with Xander Schauffele.
- Tensions flared with a verbal dispute involving Justin Rose, Bryson DeChambeau and a caddie, and McIlroy drew attention for an obscene gesture toward spectators during Friday’s play.
- The spectacle featured more than 50,000 fans per day and heavy security tied to President Donald Trump’s day-one visit and flyover, with reports of record day-ticket prices reaching $749.
