With a star-studded team including Scottie Scheffler, J.J. Spaun, Xander Schauffele, Russell Henley, Harris English, and Bryson DeChambeau, expectations are high. However, the challenge is considerable, as Team Europe, led by Rory McIlroy, Robert MacIntyre, Tommy Fleetwood, Justin Rose, Rasmus H\u00f8jgaard, and Tyrrell Hatton, will seek victory at the Bethpage Black course in Farmingdale, New York.\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Key Moments of Day 1<\/h2>\n\n\nOn Friday, the competition was full of excitement and highlights.

The pairings are as follows:\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>12:25: Scottie Scheffler and J.J. Spaun vs. Jon Rahm and Sepp Straka<\/li><li>12:41: Bryson DeChambeau and Ben Griffin vs. Tommy Fleetwood and Justin Rose<\/li><li>12:57: Cameron Young and Justin Thomas vs. Ludvig \u00c5berg and Rasmus Hojgaard<\/li><li>1:13: Sam Burns and Patrick Cantlay vs. Rory McIlroy and Shane Lowry<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">European Domain in the Morning<\/h2>\n\n\nEurope took the lead with a resounding victory in three of the four morning foursomes matches, setting the pace for the 2025 Ryder Cup. Bryson DeChambeau and Justin Thomas, after a promising start, failed to maintain momentum, losing the first match to Jon Rahm and Tyrrell Hatton by 4 and 3. The next two matches were also favorable for Europe, with convincing victories by Ludvig \u00c5berg and Matt Fitzpatrick, and Rory McIlroy and Tommy Fleetwood.\n\nThe American team managed to secure a point thanks to Xander Schauffele and Patrick Cantlay, who won the last match of the morning session 2 up.\n\nThe afternoon matches promise more excitement starting at 12:25 p.m. ET.\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\nhttps:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/embed\/Tweet.html?id=1971587138262348180\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n<h2>Hatton and Rahm give Europe the first point<\/h2>\n\nThe U.S. team captain, Keegan Bradley, bet on Bryson DeChambeau and Justin Thomas to start the game, hoping for a boost. However, England&#8217;s Tyrrell Hatton and Spain&#8217;s Jon Rahm dominated, securing a 4 and 3 victory for Europe. Thomas missed a 6-foot par putt on the 15th hole, which sealed the defeat.\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\nhttps:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/embed\/Tweet.html?id=1971585404597088400\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\nHatton and Rahm extend their lead.\n\nThe situation is getting complicated for the Americans. Tyrrell Hatton holed an 8-foot birdie on the 13th hole, and along with Jon Rahm, they now lead by 3 up on Bryson DeChambeau and Justin Thomas, with five holes to play. The Europeans have made birdies on four of the last seven holes, while the American team hasn&#8217;t had one since the 1st hole. Thomas is failing to find his game with the putt.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>United States Seeks to Regain the Ryder Cup Team USA prepares to bring the Ryder Cup championship back home.
