Europe Leads 5.5–2.5 After Ryder Cup Day 1

News summary

Europe opened Day 1 of the Ryder Cup at Bethpage Black with a 5.5–2.5 lead. Jon Rahm, Rory McIlroy and Tommy Fleetwood delivered key performances — Rahm extending an impressive Ryder Cup record, McIlroy handling intense crowd pressure, and Fleetwood playing among his best. Captain Luke Donald framed Europe’s mission as one of pride and legacy in his opening remarks, contrasting with narratives about money surrounding the U.S. side. The event featured a raucous, partisan atmosphere and a presidential flyover; coverage noted the flyover but did not report President Trump attending in person. Putting remained decisive: Justin Rose's visualization and practice routine were highlighted, and he was seen testing a Scotty Cameron Phantom T‑11.5 prototype ahead of competition.
