European fans cheer Fleetwood Mac win
Jack Rathborn on the course at Bethpage Black:
“The best spot on the course this week is arguably the pit between the 15th and 17th tees and the 16th green. The big screen is showing McIlroy’s approach and Fleetwood’s match-winning putt, wild cheers from European pockets of support.”

McIlroy snaps at American fans
Rory McIlroy just lost his cool with some American fans on the 16th fairway. He was lining up his approach while the chattered in his ear, and eventually he snapped, saying: “Guys, shut the f*** up!”
They responded with “oooos” before watching him hit his iron shot stiff to three feet. What a shot by McIlroy, in the circumstances.

Jack Rathborn on the course at Bethpage Black:
“Hatton with a clutch par save. Cantlay is in and fidgets, eventually settling, the ball drops and the match remains in the balance. Europe two up with four to play.”

Europe and US facing testing putts in match three
Jack Rathborn on the course at Bethpage Black:
“Two tricky pitches for Rahm and Schauffele on the 14th. The balls are on the lip of the rough by the first cut. Awkward and Rahm comes up short, the Americans revel.
The grass is too high for a putter. Schauffele is up and down, bouncing on the balls of his feet. A little swipe and it pops up and zips past the pin, a more aggressive line. But no gimme, both testers for par.”

US still two down against Rahm-Hatton
Jack Rathborn on the course at Bethpage Black:
“A poor 13th for the Americans, Cantlay hooking his approach and then a chunky wedge from Schauffele barely stays in the front edge of the green. Rahm’s chip is a little short too,a hand on his hip in surprise. The Americans desperately need to cling on here and stay two down.”
