Overview

• Team Europe holds a record 11.5–4.5 advantage entering Sunday singles and needs 2.5 points to retain the trophy.
• European captain Luke Donald said some U.S. spectators crossed the line with personal insults and noise during players’ routines.
• The PGA of America boosted security and increased etiquette warnings across the course, and New York State Police confirmed fan ejections.
• Rory McIlroy and Shane Lowry were repeatedly targeted; McIlroy twice told hecklers to be quiet and refused to play until silence before closing out a 2UP win.
• First-tee MC Heather McMahan apologized and stepped down after leading a profane chant, as U.S. captain Keegan Bradley called the galleries passionate; separate reports say a drink was thrown toward McIlroy’s wife, which remains unconfirmed.
