    Aye the drama in the singles is great. Medinah will never be topped for drama in my opinion. That was unreal.

    What a start for Europe. Horrible from the US again though. They cannot get anything going. Scheffler putts like a 15 handicapper.

    A Ryder Cup record

    9&7 Hovland/Aberg v Scheffler/Koepka (F)

    So, for the record, that's the biggest victory in an 18-hole match EVER in the Ryder Cup!

    And it's been dished out to an American pair of major champions, one of which the current world number one and the other the current US PGA champion.

    And it's come from a young pairing containing Ludvig Aberg, who hasn't even played in a major yet having only been a professional golfer for just under four months.

    Who writes these scripts?

    Think I'd get more excitement watching huns v livi in the last 15 mins of a game.

    Scheffler and Koepka should hang their heads in shame. That’s embarrassing from them to be off the course that early.

    This is done. Been a combination of brilliance from Europe and utter dross from America. The Americans seem to be close as pairs in some instances I feel, but as a team, it never strikes me that they have the same bond as Europe.

    I wouldn’t have paired them again, but I would have had Koepka and Scheffler back out there this afternoon. Both will be hurting badly and have a point to prove. It’s no like Johnson would be dropping them for players in form either, because apart from Homa and Harman, there’s not really any American could feel overly hard done by if they were left out.

    Some huge performances from Europe, there was a much better vibe around the team going into this compared to America. Hopefully see Bob do well again today with Rose and even with 2 matches in the afternoon it’s all but over. Yanks need a miracle comeback.

    That was unbelievable from Cantlay. That will give the US a bit of belief for tomorrow. Don’t see a comeback happening however. Europe will get it done tomorrow.
