1
00:00:11,219 --> 00:00:13,388
Ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay.

2
00:00:13,471 --> 00:00:15,557
How you handled that…

3
00:00:15,640 --> 00:00:19,477
Okay, Mom. My mom's gonna put
her camera away now, guys. Sorry, one sec.

4
00:00:25,025 --> 00:00:28,737
- What's up with the handkerchief?
- There we go. Yeah. Here.

5
00:00:28,820 --> 00:00:29,821
It's blue and, uh…

6
00:00:29,904 --> 00:00:32,282
- It's blue and yellow!
- Who's blue and yellow?

7
00:00:33,450 --> 00:00:36,578
I really appreciate the Ryder Cup
and everything it means, and

8
00:00:36,661 --> 00:00:40,582
I think it has brought a certain amount
of intrigue to the entire season.

9
00:00:40,665 --> 00:00:43,668
We should do it.
Walk out to the stage like <i>Dodgeball</i>.

10
00:00:48,298 --> 00:00:52,761
The Ryder Cup is the most intense feeling
we get in golf

11
00:00:53,762 --> 00:00:55,013
by miles.

12
00:00:59,726 --> 00:01:01,061
Go into the first row

13
00:01:01,144 --> 00:01:04,355
and my guy up there, Matt,
will re-explain all of this.

14
00:01:04,439 --> 00:01:06,024
You're gonna start the second.

15
00:01:06,107 --> 00:01:10,320
There's just something different to it.
It just always creates so much drama.

16
00:01:12,489 --> 00:01:13,490
USA!

17
00:01:15,617 --> 00:01:19,454
I don't know if I could've dreamed
of ever actually being at the Ryder Cup.

18
00:01:19,537 --> 00:01:22,123
And I'm ready to show the world
and the country what I've got.

19
00:01:23,500 --> 00:01:25,919
We're friends all year
until the Ryder Cup.

20
00:01:26,503 --> 00:01:29,798
And it's, you know, Europeans on one side
and Americans on the other.

21
00:01:30,924 --> 00:01:32,509
It's kind of weird in a way.

22
00:01:34,761 --> 00:01:37,806
I guess you could compare it
to, like, maybe MMA fighting or something.

23
00:01:39,140 --> 00:01:41,059
What is up, New York?

24
00:01:43,019 --> 00:01:48,066
Please welcome to the stage
your 2025 European Ryder Cup team.

25
00:01:53,321 --> 00:01:57,242
And ready to take back the Ryder Cup,

26
00:01:57,867 --> 00:02:03,832
please welcome to the stage
the 2025 United States Ryder Cup team!

27
00:02:05,416 --> 00:02:09,045
USA! USA! USA!

28
00:02:09,671 --> 00:02:13,091
We are playing for something
far greater than ourselves.

29
00:02:13,967 --> 00:02:17,720
It's about pride
and the legacy you leave behind.

30
00:02:20,348 --> 00:02:21,850
<i>That was incredible!</i>

31
00:02:21,933 --> 00:02:24,060
<i>The Miracle at Medinah!</i>

32
00:02:24,561 --> 00:02:26,980
We are on a quest
to reclaim the Ryder Cup.

33
00:02:27,772 --> 00:02:30,358
Bethpage Black is known
as the People's Country Club.

34
00:02:33,695 --> 00:02:35,572
It's been called New York's home course.

35
00:02:37,282 --> 00:02:39,909
This week, with your passion,

36
00:02:39,993 --> 00:02:42,036
you're gonna make it
America's home course.

37
00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:43,663
Thank you. Go, USA.

38
00:02:45,123 --> 00:02:47,959
It feels a little bit different
being in New York.

39
00:02:49,377 --> 00:02:51,921
Those New York fans,
they want us to win more than anyone.

40
00:02:52,005 --> 00:02:53,756
- Yes!
- They're very passionate.

41
00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:57,802
- We're bringing it home, boys!
- It's like they don't have, um, a filter.

42
00:02:57,886 --> 00:02:59,179
Get a haircut, Tommy!

43
00:02:59,262 --> 00:03:00,471
Teletubby!

44
00:03:00,555 --> 00:03:01,890
Europe is a joke!

45
00:03:04,017 --> 00:03:05,727
It's very intense.

46
00:03:06,227 --> 00:03:07,896
There's a lot of pressure.

47
00:03:08,771 --> 00:03:11,024
You have 50,000 people cheering for you

48
00:03:11,107 --> 00:03:13,234
or you have 50,000 people cheering
against you.

49
00:03:13,318 --> 00:03:15,361
Let's go!

50
00:03:15,445 --> 00:03:16,613
It's just… It's hard.

51
00:03:18,781 --> 00:03:21,868
Emotion is involved in every shot.

52
00:03:22,493 --> 00:03:23,620
Every hole.

53
00:03:24,662 --> 00:03:28,750
It's gonna be huge. It's gonna be
the mother of all Ryder Cups.

54
00:03:28,833 --> 00:03:32,253
Everything they've worked for
in their life has led to this moment.

55
00:03:44,432 --> 00:03:47,143
<i>It's great to be</i>
<i>in a New York state of mind.</i>

56
00:03:47,227 --> 00:03:50,521
<i>A new dawn breaks</i>
<i>on a battlefield unlike any other.</i>

57
00:03:51,105 --> 00:03:52,523
<i>Bethpage Black.</i>

58
00:03:53,149 --> 00:03:57,362
<i>Come Sunday, it will set</i>
<i>with only one of two destinies complete.</i>

59
00:03:57,862 --> 00:04:00,949
<i>Welcome to the 45th Ryder Cup.</i>

60
00:04:11,376 --> 00:04:14,504
Bethpage Black, it's really breathtaking.

61
00:04:15,338 --> 00:04:17,423
It's really, like, stunning.

62
00:04:18,925 --> 00:04:22,345
You get a real sense of the grand stage
that this is gonna be.

63
00:04:22,971 --> 00:04:24,597
So quiet right now.

64
00:04:26,975 --> 00:04:28,685
There's so much anticipation.

65
00:04:28,768 --> 00:04:30,895
It's really exciting to be on the grounds

66
00:04:30,979 --> 00:04:34,482
{\an8}and start to feel
like it's kind of becoming a reality.

67
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:37,860
Come around me here
so I can talk to all of you.

68
00:04:37,944 --> 00:04:39,028
Fellas,

69
00:04:39,904 --> 00:04:42,991
we are gonna be relentless competitors
on this golf course.

70
00:04:43,074 --> 00:04:45,451
Out there, that is our arena.

71
00:04:46,035 --> 00:04:49,414
This is the best team
on the planet right now.

72
00:04:50,248 --> 00:04:53,418
And we're gonna carry ourselves that way.
We're gonna be cocky, confident.

73
00:04:54,794 --> 00:04:56,713
This is our time.

74
00:04:57,213 --> 00:05:00,216
I want everybody at this moment
to remember what happened at Rome.

75
00:05:00,300 --> 00:05:06,514
Put your hands together
for the winners of the 2023 Ryder Cup,

76
00:05:06,597 --> 00:05:08,766
Team Europe!

77
00:05:11,227 --> 00:05:14,105
{\an8}The US is coming off
a really humiliating defeat

78
00:05:14,188 --> 00:05:15,606
{\an8}in Rome a couple of years ago.

79
00:05:16,524 --> 00:05:18,818
And these are prideful guys.
The best players in the world.

80
00:05:18,901 --> 00:05:21,612
The last thing they wanna do
is lose again,

81
00:05:21,696 --> 00:05:24,032
have to wait another two years,
and to lose at home.

82
00:05:25,033 --> 00:05:27,994
We have an opportunity
to play that same team this week.

83
00:05:28,578 --> 00:05:32,832
They come into this arena,
they have nowhere to run, nowhere to hide.

84
00:05:33,499 --> 00:05:34,500
Okay?

85
00:05:34,584 --> 00:05:35,793
Everybody in here.

86
00:05:36,544 --> 00:05:39,839
This week, this is our home course.

87
00:05:39,922 --> 00:05:42,717
This week,
this is the course we grew up on.

88
00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:45,178
USA on three. I love everybody.

89
00:05:45,261 --> 00:05:46,346
One, two, three.

90
00:05:46,429 --> 00:05:47,805
USA!

91
00:06:09,035 --> 00:06:10,620
- Morning.
- Hi.

92
00:06:10,703 --> 00:06:12,330
- Morning.
- Good morning.

93
00:06:13,498 --> 00:06:15,833
Are we wearing the hats
or no hats this year?

94
00:06:15,917 --> 00:06:17,877
You know what? I… I don't know.

95
00:06:18,378 --> 00:06:20,004
I think they do sometimes.

96
00:06:20,088 --> 00:06:21,172
Let me try yours.

97
00:06:21,881 --> 00:06:23,174
We got the same size.

98
00:06:26,928 --> 00:06:28,805
When you've won a Ryder Cup, like,

99
00:06:29,430 --> 00:06:31,599
{\an8}you never wanna <i>not </i>win a Ryder Cup.

100
00:06:34,060 --> 00:06:39,440
We have 11 of the same 12 guys
that we had in the last Ryder Cup.

101
00:06:39,524 --> 00:06:42,026
{\an8}We have a WhatsApp group still from Rome.

102
00:06:42,819 --> 00:06:44,737
{\an8}I think it's gonna be a huge advantage

103
00:06:44,821 --> 00:06:48,491
to have that continuity and to have,
obviously, a repeat captain as well.

104
00:06:48,574 --> 00:06:52,120
- New York subway kind of vibes.
- Did you have them made?

105
00:06:52,203 --> 00:06:53,496
Yeah. I don't know.

106
00:06:53,579 --> 00:06:57,375
{\an8}Just told them to make me something cool.
That's what they came up with.

107
00:06:58,292 --> 00:07:01,462
- All right. Just need a little coffee now.
- Just another coffee.

108
00:07:01,546 --> 00:07:04,715
I'm so proud
that I've played four Ryder Cups.

109
00:07:04,799 --> 00:07:07,176
I just go into them
trying to be the best teammate.

110
00:07:08,469 --> 00:07:11,222
{\an8}What would make me
the happiest about it all,

111
00:07:11,305 --> 00:07:12,932
{\an8}aside from the team winning,

112
00:07:13,015 --> 00:07:15,852
{\an8}is if, you know, one of my teammates
got asked the question

113
00:07:15,935 --> 00:07:19,313
and they would say, "Tommy was
the best teammate that you could imagine."

114
00:07:21,274 --> 00:07:23,443
I don't like
talking about myself that much.

115
00:07:23,526 --> 00:07:28,197
{\an8}But, like, I think I bring,
like, a lot of glue to the whole team.

116
00:07:28,281 --> 00:07:30,741
And people laugh at me.
I'm always in the team room.

117
00:07:30,825 --> 00:07:32,785
I'm always last to bed.
I'm always first up.

118
00:07:32,869 --> 00:07:35,538
I love being there.
I love being around people.

119
00:07:38,458 --> 00:07:42,462
This is definitely
the most united team ever assembled.

120
00:07:42,545 --> 00:07:46,507
{\an8}And obviously, that familiarity
that we all have with one another

121
00:07:46,591 --> 00:07:48,843
enables us to focus on the job at hand.

122
00:07:48,926 --> 00:07:52,180
- You okay, Joe?
- Not thinking about chemistry.

123
00:07:53,431 --> 00:07:55,308
The team is formed. Let's go.

124
00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:03,733
{\an8}All right, hit me!

125
00:08:07,653 --> 00:08:08,571
Hit me.

126
00:08:09,197 --> 00:08:11,449
I'll give you one free one. I won't move.

127
00:08:11,532 --> 00:08:13,034
- I can't either.
- Let's go.

128
00:08:13,117 --> 00:08:15,286
{\an8}- No. Anywhere you want.
- His ball sack.

129
00:08:15,369 --> 00:08:18,289
{\an8}- We gotta get out of the way.
- Somebody throw the damn ball.

130
00:08:19,790 --> 00:08:23,878
- Oh, I'm sure you're gonna get a shot.
- Jesus Christ, man!

131
00:08:24,754 --> 00:08:26,047
Throwing it so hard!

132
00:08:26,589 --> 00:08:27,757
Use it, Scottie!

133
00:08:29,425 --> 00:08:31,469
All right, players.
We're ready for the shots.

134
00:08:31,552 --> 00:08:33,429
The teams' makeup are very different.

135
00:08:33,513 --> 00:08:36,015
{\an8}The United States
have six rookies of their twelve,

136
00:08:36,098 --> 00:08:39,894
so half of their team have never played
in this kind of environment before.

137
00:08:41,687 --> 00:08:44,148
There's been this sense
in recent Ryder Cups

138
00:08:44,232 --> 00:08:48,236
that the Europeans are better
just because they mesh better together.

139
00:08:48,319 --> 00:08:51,781
{\an8}And the Americans just have to find
some way to reverse that.

140
00:08:52,365 --> 00:08:55,701
To take a dozen guys
who just play an individual sport

141
00:08:55,785 --> 00:08:58,496
and are only ever
looking out for themselves,

142
00:08:58,579 --> 00:09:01,374
and bring them together to play on a team

143
00:09:01,457 --> 00:09:05,211
in one of the most intense environments
in all of golf.

144
00:09:05,294 --> 00:09:07,421
Holy shit!

145
00:09:07,922 --> 00:09:09,173
Oh my God!

146
00:09:09,257 --> 00:09:10,424
I'm very excited.

147
00:09:10,925 --> 00:09:14,637
I wouldn't even say necessarily nervous.

148
00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:18,307
More just, like, anxious and excited
and ready to kind of get it going.

149
00:09:19,934 --> 00:09:20,768
Yes.

150
00:09:20,851 --> 00:09:23,980
{\an8}It's gonna be awesome to kind of get
some advice from some of the other guys.

151
00:09:24,063 --> 00:09:27,316
{\an8}Learn how other guys
maybe strategize golf courses.

152
00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:29,819
{\an8}How they take on different golf shots.

153
00:09:31,195 --> 00:09:34,198
{\an8}Ben, Cam, and I,
we kind of know that we're the rookies,

154
00:09:34,282 --> 00:09:38,536
so we're looking out for each other.
We pump each other up a little bit more.

155
00:09:38,619 --> 00:09:41,664
I'm pretty nervous.
I want my game to feel tight.

156
00:09:41,747 --> 00:09:42,999
I want to feel confident

157
00:09:43,082 --> 00:09:47,545
because there's more people to let down
instead of just myself this week.

158
00:09:48,379 --> 00:09:51,382
Did you ever actually dream
of playing in the Ryder Cup?

159
00:09:51,465 --> 00:09:53,301
What was that level of belief?

160
00:09:53,384 --> 00:09:57,013
Yeah, I did watch,
of course, Ryder Cups growing up.

161
00:09:57,096 --> 00:10:00,725
Did I ever dream or think
I would be on a team? No.

162
00:10:00,808 --> 00:10:04,604
You know, I think that kind of stems back
to self-belief issues.

163
00:10:04,687 --> 00:10:07,523
And you know,
once I had my first daughter,

164
00:10:07,607 --> 00:10:10,901
her favorite song was "Let It Go,"
and I just try to go by that mantra.

165
00:10:10,985 --> 00:10:12,486
Can you sing it for us now?

166
00:10:12,570 --> 00:10:13,988
<i>Let it go!</i>

167
00:10:16,449 --> 00:10:17,700
{\an8}Oh my God. So nice.

168
00:10:17,783 --> 00:10:20,119
{\an8}There's a lot of new blood on this team.

169
00:10:20,202 --> 00:10:24,165
{\an8}But the US has
an incredible, deep, talented roster.

170
00:10:24,665 --> 00:10:27,209
They've got Schauffele,
who won two major championships.

171
00:10:27,793 --> 00:10:30,630
{\an8}They've got the best player in the world
in Scottie Scheffler.

172
00:10:30,713 --> 00:10:35,092
{\an8}We're a very, very deep,
very talented team. Very hungry team.

173
00:10:35,593 --> 00:10:36,427
Nice, JT.

174
00:10:37,428 --> 00:10:38,929
{\an8}Just like I taught ya.

175
00:10:39,764 --> 00:10:42,433
Seven of the top eight
in the world rankings currently

176
00:10:42,516 --> 00:10:43,934
are Americans.

177
00:10:44,018 --> 00:10:46,395
And with the home crowd support
behind them,

178
00:10:46,479 --> 00:10:48,314
I think they… they are the favorites.

179
00:10:48,397 --> 00:10:49,315
Bryson! Bryson!

180
00:10:49,398 --> 00:10:51,776
For as competitive
as the Ryder Cup always is,

181
00:10:51,859 --> 00:10:56,656
going back to 2014, all of the Ryder Cups
have been won by the home team.

182
00:10:56,739 --> 00:10:58,115
And there's a couple reasons why.

183
00:10:58,199 --> 00:11:01,869
Number one is the home captain having
the ability to set up the golf course.

184
00:11:02,662 --> 00:11:03,913
Also, the crowd.

185
00:11:03,996 --> 00:11:04,914
Yes!

186
00:11:04,997 --> 00:11:07,500
You get the crowd on your side,
it's a very real thing.

187
00:11:07,583 --> 00:11:09,794
You feel that momentum.
You get the support.

188
00:11:10,503 --> 00:11:12,129
New York fans are incredible.

189
00:11:12,213 --> 00:11:14,507
I couldn't be more excited
for the opportunity

190
00:11:14,590 --> 00:11:18,719
to hopefully get them riled up
and excited for what's to come.

191
00:11:19,387 --> 00:11:21,263
USA! USA!

192
00:11:21,847 --> 00:11:22,765
<i>Scottie!</i>

193
00:11:22,848 --> 00:11:26,394
One of the biggest achievements
in the game is to win an away Ryder Cup.

194
00:11:26,977 --> 00:11:30,189
The fans are gonna be loud,
and everybody expects it to be boisterous.

195
00:11:30,272 --> 00:11:31,732
All right, Europe!

196
00:11:32,233 --> 00:11:33,984
Well, I think it's New York, isn't it?

197
00:11:34,485 --> 00:11:37,279
We all know how rowdy they can get.
How spirited they can get.

198
00:11:37,363 --> 00:11:41,325
You know, that makes it, uh,
extra challenging for us.

199
00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:45,371
But we have superstars on our team.

200
00:11:46,247 --> 00:11:48,332
They've been in that environment before.

201
00:11:50,209 --> 00:11:53,838
This is gonna be my seventh Ryder Cup.
Something that I'm… I'm very proud of.

202
00:11:54,422 --> 00:11:56,716
Myself and Rory being
the only two guys on the team

203
00:11:56,799 --> 00:11:59,468
that have tasted a victory
on foreign soil,

204
00:11:59,552 --> 00:12:00,928
it's rarefied air.

205
00:12:02,138 --> 00:12:04,181
Winning an away Ryder Cup for either team

206
00:12:04,265 --> 00:12:06,142
has been a challenge
in the last couple decades,

207
00:12:06,225 --> 00:12:09,645
so, um, I think that's what we're all
looking for, is a little advantage.

208
00:12:12,732 --> 00:12:16,152
{\an8}What advice have you given
to the younger guys?

209
00:12:16,652 --> 00:12:18,487
Um, I'm very lucky.

210
00:12:18,571 --> 00:12:21,407
I get support pretty much
everywhere I go when I play golf,

211
00:12:21,490 --> 00:12:24,535
and, um, it's gonna feel
a little different for me this week.

212
00:12:25,161 --> 00:12:26,912
So it's really just
trying to find the balance

213
00:12:26,996 --> 00:12:30,166
of using that energy from the crowd
to… to fuel your performance.

214
00:12:31,083 --> 00:12:33,502
But that's the challenge
of playing away, right?

215
00:12:43,554 --> 00:12:45,890
- Hi, y'all.
- Hi! How are you?

216
00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:49,810
- Oh my gosh!
- I love this.

217
00:12:53,355 --> 00:12:54,899
- What?
- Waiting on my date.

218
00:12:54,982 --> 00:12:57,109
- Okay. That's right.
- Whatever you say.

219
00:13:00,112 --> 00:13:06,744
{\an8}Seeing, you know, all these plans that
you pine over for months and months

220
00:13:06,827 --> 00:13:10,039
come to life, it's just spectacular.

221
00:13:10,539 --> 00:13:13,959
Everybody,
right up here for me. One, two, three.

222
00:13:14,043 --> 00:13:14,960
Good.

223
00:13:15,753 --> 00:13:17,838
Again. One, two, three. Good.

224
00:13:17,922 --> 00:13:20,883
{\an8}Having done that job in Italy,

225
00:13:20,966 --> 00:13:25,387
{\an8}I think there's a ton of pressure on you
as the host.

226
00:13:25,471 --> 00:13:31,060
And I think they care a lot
about doing a great job for Team USA.

227
00:13:31,560 --> 00:13:35,731
And last one for me.
One, two, three. Thank you very much.

228
00:13:35,815 --> 00:13:37,441
I lied. One more. Okay.

229
00:13:38,108 --> 00:13:39,568
It's so special.

230
00:13:40,569 --> 00:13:46,408
No one could even begin to understand
how much work and time and sacrifice…

231
00:13:47,576 --> 00:13:51,747
Missing kids' birthday parties
and going to weddings alone

232
00:13:51,831 --> 00:13:53,791
over how many years

233
00:13:54,458 --> 00:13:59,338
to be able to relax
and celebrate being there.

234
00:13:59,421 --> 00:14:01,632
Like, okay, this is why.

235
00:14:01,715 --> 00:14:02,883
We're leaving, brothers?

236
00:14:02,967 --> 00:14:04,301
Yeah. All done. Thank you.

237
00:14:04,385 --> 00:14:05,803
- Thank you.
- Thank you.

238
00:14:07,805 --> 00:14:10,099
USA! USA!

239
00:14:10,182 --> 00:14:15,062
USA! USA! USA! USA!

240
00:14:15,145 --> 00:14:18,190
Go, USA, baby! Let's go!

241
00:14:18,941 --> 00:14:21,735
<i>Welcome to a scene</i>
<i>unlike any other in the game.</i>

242
00:14:24,238 --> 00:14:26,907
<i>The buildup has been enormous.</i>

243
00:14:28,701 --> 00:14:32,580
<i>50,000 fans expected</i>
<i>to be out there each day.</i>

244
00:14:32,663 --> 00:14:34,415
Woo-hoo!

245
00:14:34,498 --> 00:14:36,876
<i>Started lining up before the sun came up.</i>

246
00:14:37,501 --> 00:14:40,504
<i>Scottie, Scottie Scheffler!</i>

247
00:14:40,588 --> 00:14:44,425
<i>And it is the greatest spectacle in golf.</i>

248
00:14:48,053 --> 00:14:51,015
For the first two days
of the Ryder Cup, they're team matches.

249
00:14:51,098 --> 00:14:53,934
So these guys play by themselves
throughout the whole year,

250
00:14:54,018 --> 00:14:56,270
but in the first two days,
they need a partner.

251
00:14:56,353 --> 00:14:58,272
And that's a huge decision
for the captain.

252
00:14:59,857 --> 00:15:02,234
<i>Fireworks in match one</i>

253
00:15:02,318 --> 00:15:05,529
<i>with the powerhouses</i>
<i>of Bryson DeChambeau and Justin Thomas</i>

254
00:15:05,613 --> 00:15:08,490
<i>taking on Tyrrell Hatton and Jon Rahm.</i>

255
00:15:08,574 --> 00:15:11,118
It's important
for the captain to get the energy right,

256
00:15:11,201 --> 00:15:13,787
and it also has to make sense
from a statistical standpoint.

257
00:15:13,871 --> 00:15:16,749
Their games have to be compatible,
but also their personalities.

258
00:15:16,832 --> 00:15:18,918
<i>You know who's hitting first?</i>

259
00:15:19,001 --> 00:15:21,295
<i>I don't. I gotta think it's Bryson, right?</i>

260
00:15:21,378 --> 00:15:23,631
Bryson, first tee, driving the green.

261
00:15:23,714 --> 00:15:24,882
- Yeah, it's…
- Obviously.

262
00:15:24,965 --> 00:15:27,468
Yeah, I think it has to be Bryson
hitting the first shot.

263
00:15:27,551 --> 00:15:31,096
{\an8}Statistically, though, it's better
for him to tee off on the even holes.

264
00:15:31,180 --> 00:15:33,724
You're… you're… you're too lost
in the numbers, Luke.

265
00:15:33,807 --> 00:15:36,810
This is the Ryder Cup.
Throw those numbers out the window.

266
00:15:37,394 --> 00:15:40,439
<i>The opening tee at the Ryder Cup.</i>

267
00:15:40,522 --> 00:15:43,859
<i>Thirty miles east of Times Square</i>
<i>on this morning on Long Island,</i>

268
00:15:43,943 --> 00:15:48,238
{\an8}<i>Bethpage Black,</i>
<i>the People's Country Club, is ready.</i>

269
00:15:48,864 --> 00:15:51,200
{\an8}- Here we go, Bobby.
- We got this! We got this!

270
00:15:57,164 --> 00:16:00,209
{\an8}Make more noise!
You're getting drowned out!

271
00:16:00,292 --> 00:16:02,336
{\an8}Come on! Come on!

272
00:16:03,295 --> 00:16:07,007
As soon as a Ryder Cup week begins,
it's us against them.

273
00:16:07,758 --> 00:16:10,427
<i>And the scoring is winner takes all.</i>

274
00:16:11,178 --> 00:16:16,350
<i>There are 28 matches over three days,</i>
<i>and therefore 28 points up for grabs.</i>

275
00:16:16,850 --> 00:16:21,146
<i>All of the matches are head-to-head,</i>
<i>and each match is worth one point</i>

276
00:16:21,230 --> 00:16:24,733
<i>or a half point awarded to each side</i>
<i>in the event of a tie.</i>

277
00:16:25,901 --> 00:16:27,486
<i>Because Europe is the reigning champion,</i>

278
00:16:27,569 --> 00:16:30,906
<i>they only need 14 points</i>
<i>to retain the Ryder Cup,</i>

279
00:16:30,990 --> 00:16:35,494
<i>while the US would need 14½ points</i>
<i>to take it away from them.</i>

280
00:16:36,120 --> 00:16:37,705
USA! USA!

281
00:16:37,788 --> 00:16:42,918
Good morning and welcome
to the first day of the 45th Ryder Cup.

282
00:16:43,419 --> 00:16:45,379
This is match number one.

283
00:16:46,171 --> 00:16:48,674
<i>Bryson DeChambeau, Justin Thomas</i>

284
00:16:48,757 --> 00:16:52,011
<i>will take on Jon Rahm and Tyrrell Hatton.</i>

285
00:16:52,094 --> 00:16:53,387
Just you and me, my guy.

286
00:16:55,556 --> 00:16:59,518
<i>Takes every single emotion</i>
<i>you've got, just turn the volume up to 11.</i>

287
00:17:11,739 --> 00:17:13,365
<i>Does find the rough.</i>

288
00:17:14,408 --> 00:17:17,995
Now on the tee, Bryson DeChambeau.

289
00:17:21,749 --> 00:17:25,502
<i>Keegan Bradley said</i>
<i>he wanted to lead with a spark.</i>

290
00:17:25,586 --> 00:17:27,796
<i>This is that man, Bryson DeChambeau.</i>

291
00:17:32,051 --> 00:17:33,719
<i>Oh, he's nailed it.</i>

292
00:17:33,802 --> 00:17:36,889
<i>- That is perfect.</i>
- <i>Would you look at that?</i>

293
00:17:37,389 --> 00:17:38,640
<i>Wow!</i>

294
00:17:38,724 --> 00:17:40,642
<i>That's how you get the crowd going.</i>

295
00:17:42,061 --> 00:17:43,645
That's a good start.

296
00:17:44,229 --> 00:17:47,399
USA! USA! USA!

297
00:17:47,483 --> 00:17:52,821
<i>What an opening moment for Team USA.</i>

298
00:17:52,905 --> 00:17:56,950
USA! USA! USA! USA!

299
00:17:57,034 --> 00:17:59,495
<i>So far, this hole has</i>
<i>kind of gone exactly the way</i>

300
00:17:59,578 --> 00:18:00,621
<i>the US has wanted.</i>

301
00:18:01,663 --> 00:18:03,749
<i>This for the icing on the cake</i>

302
00:18:03,832 --> 00:18:06,919
{\an8}<i>to go one up through one</i>
<i>in a home Ryder Cup.</i>

00:18:09,379 --> 00:18:10,964
{\an8}Get in the hole!

304
00:18:12,508 --> 00:18:14,551
<i>What a start.</i>

305
00:18:15,761 --> 00:18:17,387
{\an8}<i>That's what they wanted.</i>

306
00:18:17,471 --> 00:18:20,432
{\an8}USA! USA! USA!

307
00:18:20,516 --> 00:18:25,145
<i>Just as designed</i>
<i>for captain Keegan Bradley.</i>

308
00:18:25,646 --> 00:18:26,980
USA, one up.

309
00:18:28,273 --> 00:18:30,484
Rory! Rory, Rory!

310
00:18:32,319 --> 00:18:34,321
<i>Come to a PGA TOUR event</i>

311
00:18:34,404 --> 00:18:38,450
<i>and McIlroy and Tommy Fleetwood,</i>
<i>they are loved by crowds.</i>

312
00:18:38,951 --> 00:18:39,993
<i>Not this week.</i>

313
00:18:41,495 --> 00:18:42,496
<i>Tommy.</i>

314
00:18:43,372 --> 00:18:44,873
Come on. Just keep going.

315
00:18:48,168 --> 00:18:49,169
<i>Brilliant.</i>

316
00:18:50,129 --> 00:18:51,755
<i>And they have been so far.</i>

317
00:18:52,256 --> 00:18:53,715
<i>McIlroy.</i>

318
00:18:54,424 --> 00:18:56,009
<i>Chance to win the hole.</i>

319
00:19:00,097 --> 00:19:03,016
{\an8}<i>What a team these two have been.</i>

320
00:19:04,726 --> 00:19:07,271
{\an8}<i>Match one</i>
<i>could be in jeopardy for the Americans.</i>

321
00:19:11,567 --> 00:19:14,194
<i>Just went left on him,</i>
<i>so a chance for Europe</i>

322
00:19:14,278 --> 00:19:16,697
<i>to get up in the first match.</i>

323
00:19:20,701 --> 00:19:23,495
{\an8}<i>Rahm walks it in. Europe takes the lead.</i>

324
00:19:24,788 --> 00:19:29,668
{\an8}<i>Momentum certainly on the side of Europe</i>
<i>right now here in the first session.</i>

325
00:19:30,169 --> 00:19:33,005
<i>They've kind of taken</i>
<i>the crowd out early here.</i>

326
00:19:33,088 --> 00:19:36,550
{\an8}Was not expecting day one to go like this.

327
00:19:36,633 --> 00:19:39,720
Like, obviously it's not over.

328
00:19:39,803 --> 00:19:44,892
It's just not the way you hope
day one goes in America, in New York.

329
00:19:45,767 --> 00:19:47,102
{\an8}<i>Justin Thomas now.</i>

330
00:19:47,186 --> 00:19:49,062
{\an8}<i>He's been called</i>
<i>the heartbeat of the US side.</i>

331
00:19:49,146 --> 00:19:51,899
{\an8}<i>They need the defib machine right now.</i>

332
00:19:52,441 --> 00:19:53,859
{\an8}- <i>Wow.</i>
- Oh!

333
00:19:53,942 --> 00:19:55,152
<i>That'll do it.</i>

334
00:19:55,652 --> 00:19:56,695
We needed that putt.

335
00:19:57,696 --> 00:19:59,781
{\an8}<i>What a jolt for Luke Donald.</i>

336
00:20:00,449 --> 00:20:03,160
Damn, that sucks. That sucks.

337
00:20:04,119 --> 00:20:06,830
{\an8}<i>And now Fleetwood to close it out.</i>

338
00:20:09,541 --> 00:20:13,795
{\an8}<i>Fleetwood Mac.</i>
<i>Another massive margin for Europe.</i>

339
00:20:13,879 --> 00:20:15,589
<i>Olé, olé, olé, olé…</i>

340
00:20:15,672 --> 00:20:19,218
<i>That man's done</i>
<i>everything right so far in two Ryder Cups.</i>

341
00:20:20,719 --> 00:20:23,305
This European team came in
with so much confidence,

342
00:20:23,388 --> 00:20:25,933
and they've… they've done
exactly what they needed to do,

343
00:20:26,016 --> 00:20:28,018
which is silence the crowd
right off the bat.

344
00:20:29,269 --> 00:20:31,730
{\an8}The crowd, I think they're on mute.

345
00:20:31,813 --> 00:20:34,441
{\an8}I think that's literally
where it is right now. Um…

346
00:20:34,524 --> 00:20:36,693
But, yeah, more of the same.
Come on, Europe.

347
00:20:37,736 --> 00:20:39,738
- That's Air Force One.
- Air Force One.

348
00:20:39,821 --> 00:20:41,823
America bringing in reinforcements.

349
00:20:41,907 --> 00:20:43,283
That is… Yeah.

350
00:20:44,326 --> 00:20:47,120
<i>As we get set for the afternoon session,</i>

351
00:20:47,204 --> 00:20:50,123
<i>a glorious start for Luke Donald,</i>

352
00:20:50,207 --> 00:20:52,459
<i>the European captain</i>
<i>who's trying to make history.</i>

353
00:20:53,335 --> 00:20:55,337
<i>Crowd is bigger and louder now, Dan.</i>

354
00:20:55,420 --> 00:20:59,675
USA! USA! USA! USA!

355
00:20:59,758 --> 00:21:01,760
You felt the US were trying their hardest

356
00:21:01,843 --> 00:21:03,845
to make that first tee experience

357
00:21:03,929 --> 00:21:09,059
as loud and obnoxious and, um, supportive
of the US teams as much as possible.

358
00:21:09,142 --> 00:21:13,355
You know, make us feel, um,
like we're… we're definitely the visitor.

359
00:21:15,857 --> 00:21:17,818
<i>There's a new spectator in the house,</i>

360
00:21:17,901 --> 00:21:20,821
<i>the President of the United States,</i>
<i>Donald Trump.</i>

361
00:21:20,904 --> 00:21:24,074
USA! USA! USA!

362
00:21:24,741 --> 00:21:27,160
Any time you see the president,
it adds a weight.

363
00:21:27,244 --> 00:21:30,205
A feeling that doesn't exist
in a lot of sporting events.

364
00:21:31,248 --> 00:21:33,667
You felt like
it was gonna give the whole team a jolt.

365
00:21:33,750 --> 00:21:35,669
That's certainly
what Bradley's hoping for.

366
00:21:35,752 --> 00:21:37,546
USA! USA!

367
00:21:37,629 --> 00:21:41,466
<i>It's the dream scenario</i>
<i>for Bryson DeChambeau.</i>

368
00:21:41,550 --> 00:21:43,468
<i>Gonna shake hands there</i>
<i>with the president.</i>

369
00:21:43,552 --> 00:21:45,971
<i>And he's first to greet him</i>
<i>as he comes out of the tunnel.</i>

370
00:21:47,723 --> 00:21:50,392
<i>President Trump's got golf shoes on.</i>

371
00:21:50,475 --> 00:21:53,979
<i>If the Americans don't get</i>
<i>it going, the president might wanna play.</i>

372
00:21:58,734 --> 00:22:01,069
Walking out
with the president of the United States,

373
00:22:01,153 --> 00:22:04,614
it's one of the craziest moments
in my life.

374
00:22:05,532 --> 00:22:07,451
I tried to keep myself
as calm as possible.

375
00:22:10,746 --> 00:22:14,791
<i>Well, if there was ever</i>
<i>a stage for a comeback, it was just set.</i>

376
00:22:15,792 --> 00:22:19,504
<i>There is a sense of urgency</i>
<i>for the United States.</i>

377
00:22:22,799 --> 00:22:25,635
<i>First blood</i>
<i>to the United States, J.J. Spaun.</i>

378
00:22:26,887 --> 00:22:29,389
{\an8}<i>We opened the show</i>
<i>talking about American rookies</i>

379
00:22:29,473 --> 00:22:31,058
{\an8}<i>coming into a tough situation.</i>

380
00:22:31,141 --> 00:22:32,684
<i>So far, they've all stood up.</i>

381
00:22:33,352 --> 00:22:35,520
<i>Young is next to go at this par four.</i>

382
00:22:37,356 --> 00:22:39,816
{\an8}Any point you earn
in one of those events is special,

383
00:22:39,900 --> 00:22:43,278
but I think, you know,
I only get one chance at a first match,

384
00:22:43,362 --> 00:22:46,907
and, you know,
I did my best to make it count.

385
00:22:48,283 --> 00:22:51,036
<i>Gets that club</i>
<i>in such a nice position at the top.</i>

386
00:22:52,204 --> 00:22:53,997
<i>Oh, wow, what a shot.</i>

387
00:22:54,498 --> 00:22:58,377
{\an8}<i>Young with a chance</i>
<i>for his fourth birdie in this match.</i>

388
00:23:01,296 --> 00:23:03,673
{\an8}<i>Five up lead for him and Justin Thomas.</i>

389
00:23:04,299 --> 00:23:07,969
<i>The pride of Sleepy Hollow, Cameron Young.</i>

390
00:23:11,014 --> 00:23:13,850
<i>The rookies are finally</i>
<i>bringing some energy for the Americans,</i>

391
00:23:13,934 --> 00:23:16,269
<i>and it's starting to look</i>
<i>like there's a little bit of hope.</i>

392
00:23:16,353 --> 00:23:18,146
<i>What a debut into the Ryder Cup.</i>

393
00:23:18,230 --> 00:23:20,023
<i>What confidence he's displayed.</i>

394
00:23:20,107 --> 00:23:21,733
{\an8}<i>This might make</i>
<i>Keegan Bradley think about,</i>

395
00:23:21,817 --> 00:23:24,569
{\an8}<i>"What do I do with Cam Young</i>
<i>tomorrow morning?"</i>

396
00:23:25,612 --> 00:23:27,447
- Get in the hole!
- Get in!

397
00:23:29,449 --> 00:23:31,576
<i>And that will be conceded.</i>

398
00:23:31,660 --> 00:23:38,041
{\an8}<i>It is a victory for Cameron Young</i>
<i>and Justin Thomas. 6and5.</i>

399
00:23:40,460 --> 00:23:41,962
We played so well,

400
00:23:42,045 --> 00:23:47,092
and we felt like a victory like that could
just spark something in everybody else.

401
00:23:47,175 --> 00:23:50,345
<i>Certainly having</i>
<i>a better afternoon than morning,</i>

402
00:23:50,429 --> 00:23:51,888
<i>but they needed to, didn't they?</i>

403
00:23:52,681 --> 00:23:55,183
{\an8}You never know
what a little spark will do.

404
00:23:56,017 --> 00:23:58,145
{\an8}<i>Griffin on seven.</i>

405
00:24:01,106 --> 00:24:02,482
In the hole!

406
00:24:02,983 --> 00:24:05,527
<i>It's tracking. It's tracking. Ben Griffin!</i>

407
00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:08,697
<i>Bringing the energy.</i>

408
00:24:09,448 --> 00:24:10,615
<i>What a moment.</i>

409
00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:14,786
Ben holes this putt out of nowhere,

410
00:24:14,870 --> 00:24:16,872
and bang,
he's right involved in the match.

411
00:24:16,955 --> 00:24:19,666
{\an8}<i>Justin Rose is next.</i>

412
00:24:19,749 --> 00:24:22,252
{\an8}<i>This is crazy.</i>
<i>Every time the US seems to be building</i>

413
00:24:22,335 --> 00:24:25,380
{\an8}<i>a little bit of momentum,</i>
<i>Europe answers right back.</i>

414
00:24:25,881 --> 00:24:27,549
Do it! Do it! Do it!

415
00:24:30,552 --> 00:24:36,099
<i>Justin Rose,</i>
<i>right back at you. What a response.</i>

416
00:24:36,808 --> 00:24:39,769
Holing that one on top
of Ben was like, "We're not going away."

417
00:24:39,853 --> 00:24:41,146
"This is not gonna be easy."

418
00:24:41,646 --> 00:24:45,317
We're trained in match play to always
expect our opponent to make the next shot,

419
00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:47,986
but, man, come on.
Like, that was my moment.

420
00:24:48,570 --> 00:24:52,407
<i>Seventh Ryder Cup for Rose.</i>
<i>Still making putts like that.</i>

421
00:24:54,159 --> 00:24:57,412
{\an8}<i>This is for birdie</i>
<i>to tie the hole for Scheffler.</i>

422
00:24:58,580 --> 00:24:59,706
Oh!

423
00:24:59,789 --> 00:25:02,584
<i>Scottie Scheffler</i>
<i>not looking like Scottie Scheffler there.</i>

424
00:25:02,667 --> 00:25:04,419
{\an8}<i>This is great news for Europe.</i>

425
00:25:04,503 --> 00:25:06,421
{\an8}<i>Scottie Scheffler is not on fire.</i>

426
00:25:09,007 --> 00:25:12,427
<i>Oh man, sticks it right in there.</i>

427
00:25:13,261 --> 00:25:16,097
Go, Tommy! Let's go!

428
00:25:17,307 --> 00:25:19,726
{\an8}<i>Tommy Fleetwood has tied it up.</i>

429
00:25:19,809 --> 00:25:23,980
{\an8}<i>All the sudden, it's feeling</i>
<i>like Friday morning all over again.</i>

430
00:25:28,527 --> 00:25:29,819
Come on!

431
00:25:29,903 --> 00:25:30,737
{\an8}Yeah!

432
00:25:32,864 --> 00:25:35,367
{\an8}<i>Tommy Fleetwood</i>
<i>has a chance to win the hole.</i>

433
00:25:37,327 --> 00:25:38,161
Get in!

434
00:25:38,703 --> 00:25:42,874
{\an8}<i>Which he takes.</i>
<i>And Europe go up in that second match.</i>

435
00:25:42,958 --> 00:25:45,252
{\an8}<i>European fans well represented here.</i>

436
00:25:45,335 --> 00:25:48,421
<i>And loud with the lead</i>
<i>here in this Ryder Cup.</i>

437
00:25:49,256 --> 00:25:50,423
Eighteen.

438
00:25:50,507 --> 00:25:53,260
We have a great battle
with Ben and Bryson.

439
00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:59,140
{\an8}<i>Justin Rose</i>
<i>with a birdie putt to win this match.</i>

440
00:25:59,224 --> 00:26:01,977
I sort of remembered
a little bit like Rome.

441
00:26:02,060 --> 00:26:06,147
I had a putt late in the afternoon
and was able to kind of hole it

442
00:26:06,231 --> 00:26:08,608
and have that moment
where I shared it with the whole team.

443
00:26:08,692 --> 00:26:11,820
I turned around. I was like,
"For you, for you, for you, for you."

444
00:26:11,903 --> 00:26:13,989
And I kind of wanted this one for Tommy.

445
00:26:17,492 --> 00:26:21,246
{\an8}<i>Justin Rose buries</i>
<i>another one for a winner.</i>

446
00:26:22,622 --> 00:26:25,709
The vision we had
for the day was kind of encapsulated

447
00:26:25,792 --> 00:26:27,961
by being able to hole that putt on 18,

448
00:26:28,044 --> 00:26:30,338
give each other a hug,
and come off victorious.

449
00:26:30,422 --> 00:26:31,631
Yeah, it was huge.

450
00:26:32,215 --> 00:26:36,011
<i>Fleetwood finishes off a fantastic Friday.</i>

451
00:26:36,094 --> 00:26:40,181
Justin is somebody that I've looked up to
for a long time. I've learned from him.

452
00:26:40,265 --> 00:26:42,976
It's always so cool to watch
how he plays when he's in contention.

453
00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:45,478
<i>And we will go into Saturday</i>

454
00:26:45,562 --> 00:26:49,649
<i>with Europe comfortably in front,</i>
<i>5½ to 2½.</i>

455
00:27:00,076 --> 00:27:02,704
I mean, I'm pleasantly surprised
that we're… we're winning.

456
00:27:02,787 --> 00:27:04,706
Um, that's obviously always the goal.

457
00:27:06,333 --> 00:27:09,002
Foursomes are a tricky thing to get right.

458
00:27:09,502 --> 00:27:11,463
It's like a puzzle
you're trying to put together.

459
00:27:11,546 --> 00:27:13,465
There's lots of different parts to it.

460
00:27:13,548 --> 00:27:16,843
Golf course,
personality matchups, statistics. Um…

461
00:27:17,427 --> 00:27:19,137
Yeah, there's so much that goes into it.

462
00:27:19,220 --> 00:27:22,974
And I think, you know,
if you spend enough time on it, um,

463
00:27:23,058 --> 00:27:27,771
and obviously if it works out,
then you feel pretty smart about yourself.

464
00:27:28,521 --> 00:27:31,066
There's a pretty big lead
after the first day,

465
00:27:31,149 --> 00:27:33,818
but still a lot of points
to be played for,

466
00:27:33,902 --> 00:27:37,197
so, um, we're just gonna keep
riding that momentum.

467
00:27:39,491 --> 00:27:42,702
<i>Welcome, everybody,</i>
<i>to day two here at this Ryder Cup.</i>

468
00:27:42,786 --> 00:27:44,788
<i>The Americans are in deep trouble.</i>

469
00:27:44,871 --> 00:27:47,165
<i>New York's starting to look like Rome.</i>

470
00:27:47,248 --> 00:27:48,541
We're ready for a fight.

471
00:27:48,625 --> 00:27:51,461
Seems like New York's woken up
a little bit here. Crowd's going.

472
00:27:51,544 --> 00:27:54,798
Uh, I'm excited.
I got a good feeling about today.

473
00:27:54,881 --> 00:27:56,383
DeChambeau!

474
00:28:00,595 --> 00:28:03,139
{\an8}<i>Xander, this for par to tie.</i>

475
00:28:03,223 --> 00:28:04,641
{\an8}<i>This is so critical.</i>

476
00:28:05,183 --> 00:28:06,685
{\an8}Oh!

477
00:28:08,353 --> 00:28:10,355
<i>And now Fleetwood with the putter.</i>

478
00:28:10,855 --> 00:28:14,734
{\an8}- <i>Oh my goodness.</i>
- <i>Turns it right back around.</i>

479
00:28:14,818 --> 00:28:18,405
<i>The Europeans look</i>
<i>awfully strong right now.</i>

480
00:28:18,488 --> 00:28:21,199
{\an8}<i>A couple of blues already on the board.</i>

481
00:28:23,702 --> 00:28:26,371
{\an8}<i>Standing in the bunker, Rahm,</i>
<i>here at the eighth.</i>

482
00:28:28,039 --> 00:28:30,291
<i>Oh, that's silly.</i>

483
00:28:31,918 --> 00:28:32,919
{\an8}<i>Oh my gosh!</i>

484
00:28:33,002 --> 00:28:34,504
{\an8}<i>Much more than luck.</i>

485
00:28:38,174 --> 00:28:40,343
- <i>Wow.</i>
- <i>This is right of it.</i>

486
00:28:40,427 --> 00:28:42,178
<i>Oh my goodness.</i>

487
00:28:42,679 --> 00:28:44,472
{\an8}<i>A calamity.</i>

488
00:28:44,556 --> 00:28:48,309
{\an8}<i>Not the start at all</i>
<i>that the United States was hoping for.</i>

489
00:28:48,393 --> 00:28:50,979
<i>Down 8½ to 3½.</i>

490
00:28:54,691 --> 00:28:59,988
<i>McIlroy. A lot of chatter</i>
<i>from the crowd and not good comments, so…</i>

491
00:29:00,071 --> 00:29:01,781
<i>Well, they're already at it.</i>

492
00:29:01,865 --> 00:29:04,617
<i>And Rory dealt with it on day one as well.</i>

493
00:29:09,664 --> 00:29:13,877
Everybody expected in the buildup
that the fans could be boisterous.

494
00:29:13,960 --> 00:29:16,671
{\an8}But all of a sudden, it took a turn.

495
00:29:17,464 --> 00:29:19,716
{\an8}- Fuck you, Rory!
- Rory!

496
00:29:19,799 --> 00:29:23,052
No pressure!

497
00:29:23,136 --> 00:29:26,347
Take all the time you need, Rory.
You're still gonna choke.

498
00:29:27,724 --> 00:29:30,310
The American fans felt like
they probably had to come out

499
00:29:30,393 --> 00:29:33,563
and try and help their team on Saturday,
We were so far ahead.

500
00:29:33,646 --> 00:29:37,692
And, yeah, it was… it was interesting.

501
00:29:37,776 --> 00:29:39,068
It was wild.

502
00:29:40,195 --> 00:29:41,488
{\an8}Teletubby!

503
00:29:41,571 --> 00:29:43,615
{\an8}Europe is a joke!

504
00:29:43,698 --> 00:29:47,327
You want Ryder cups to be different.
You want them to be high energy.

505
00:29:47,410 --> 00:29:49,871
You just don't want it to overstep a mark.

506
00:29:49,954 --> 00:29:51,831
That bunker's looking tasty.

507
00:29:52,332 --> 00:29:53,958
Guys, shut the… …up!

508
00:29:56,920 --> 00:29:59,297
There was one moment
where Rory didn't hit that putt,

509
00:29:59,380 --> 00:30:01,007
I think, for five or six minutes.

510
00:30:01,508 --> 00:30:03,593
Easy putt! Easy putt!

511
00:30:05,261 --> 00:30:07,055
<i>He's backed off again.</i>

512
00:30:09,432 --> 00:30:12,644
<i>It's one thing to give him</i>
<i>a hard time, but, uh, you can't do it</i>

513
00:30:12,727 --> 00:30:13,937
<i>when the guy's over the shot.</i>

514
00:30:14,020 --> 00:30:15,480
Don't get angry, Shane.

515
00:30:15,563 --> 00:30:18,191
When they started doing it
in our backswings

516
00:30:18,274 --> 00:30:21,069
and started trying to properly put us off
when we were actually playing,

517
00:30:21,152 --> 00:30:22,362
that really pissed me off.

518
00:30:22,445 --> 00:30:25,824
It's funny. When you stand up to them,
they're very quiet.

519
00:30:26,407 --> 00:30:28,576
Come on!

520
00:30:30,829 --> 00:30:33,414
<i>Just a combustible</i>
<i>situation out here right now.</i>

521
00:30:33,498 --> 00:30:37,126
<i>Just the crowds</i>
<i>are amazingly involved in the process.</i>

522
00:30:38,086 --> 00:30:40,922
Some of the videos
that emerged were… were shocking.

523
00:30:41,005 --> 00:30:45,385
There was this moment with Rory McIlroy
and his wife, Erica, walking past a crowd

524
00:30:45,468 --> 00:30:48,429
and, all of a sudden,
a can of beer lands by Erica's head.

525
00:30:50,682 --> 00:30:52,100
Yeah.

526
00:30:52,183 --> 00:30:54,602
This becomes,
like, the dominant storyline.

527
00:30:54,686 --> 00:30:57,897
In real time and even more so afterwards.

528
00:30:58,481 --> 00:31:00,817
So I'm actually the one
that took this video,

529
00:31:00,900 --> 00:31:04,237
and in real time, I thought
the same thing everyone else did,

530
00:31:04,320 --> 00:31:06,865
that this was a beer thrown
from the crowd

531
00:31:06,948 --> 00:31:08,366
at the European team.

532
00:31:08,449 --> 00:31:12,328
But when I rewatched it,
slowed down, zoomed in,

533
00:31:12,412 --> 00:31:15,999
it became clear that there's maybe
a more confusing narrative

534
00:31:16,082 --> 00:31:20,378
that maybe the beer was accidentally
knocked out of somebody's hand.

535
00:31:20,461 --> 00:31:22,922
But the reason everyone initially thought
it was an attack

536
00:31:23,006 --> 00:31:26,926
was because there was
a pretty ominous feeling on the grounds

537
00:31:27,010 --> 00:31:31,222
that I don't remember seeing
at another golf tournament. Ever.

538
00:31:32,056 --> 00:31:34,976
<i>This one has crossed</i>
<i>the line more than a few times.</i>

539
00:31:35,894 --> 00:31:38,396
It was against the spirit
of what we do in Ryder Cups.

540
00:31:38,479 --> 00:31:40,231
And you could see it almost affecting

541
00:31:40,315 --> 00:31:42,358
the American players
a little bit in a way.

542
00:31:42,442 --> 00:31:44,777
They were trying
to hush the crowd as well.

543
00:31:44,861 --> 00:31:47,071
<i>You've had multiple instances</i>

544
00:31:47,155 --> 00:31:49,908
<i>where Justin Thomas</i>
<i>has been trying to quiet the crowd down.</i>

545
00:31:49,991 --> 00:31:53,953
Temperatures and tensions can rise
at any given time in a Ryder Cup.

546
00:31:54,037 --> 00:31:56,915
Plus, the atmosphere
that was created by the crowds meant

547
00:31:56,998 --> 00:32:00,293
the players were on a knife edge
at any given point.

548
00:32:00,376 --> 00:32:04,172
There was an incident where Justin Rose
was getting ready to hit his putt.

549
00:32:06,215 --> 00:32:07,508
It's my putt here, boys.

550
00:32:08,009 --> 00:32:09,135
Okay. Thank you.

551
00:32:09,719 --> 00:32:11,262
<i>Rose said it was his putt.</i>

552
00:32:11,346 --> 00:32:13,848
<i>Well, yeah, that was</i>
<i>a heated exchange there.</i>

553
00:32:13,932 --> 00:32:18,394
<i>Justin Rose just telling the caddie</i>
<i>of Bryson DeChambeau, Greg Bodine,</i>

554
00:32:18,478 --> 00:32:20,730
<i>to get out of his way</i>
<i>as he was reading his putt.</i>

555
00:32:22,815 --> 00:32:24,609
<i>Is he jawing at Rose?</i>

556
00:32:24,692 --> 00:32:25,985
<i>It's gotten heated.</i>

557
00:32:26,778 --> 00:32:28,571
<i>- Whoa!</i>
- <i>Whoa.</i>

558
00:32:29,697 --> 00:32:32,867
Golf has got a reputation
of being a gentlemen's sport.

559
00:32:32,951 --> 00:32:36,079
And it wasn't a gentlemen's sport
on Saturday afternoon.

560
00:32:38,206 --> 00:32:39,832
Come on!

561
00:32:39,916 --> 00:32:41,501
{\an8}I don't care what people call me,

562
00:32:41,584 --> 00:32:43,586
{\an8}because I'm a grown man.
I can deal with that.

563
00:32:43,670 --> 00:32:47,632
{\an8}And I think Rory and Tommy talked about
trying to win with excellence and class,

564
00:32:47,715 --> 00:32:49,676
{\an8}and, yeah, we tried to do that as well.

565
00:32:50,176 --> 00:32:52,887
{\an8}Come on!

566
00:32:52,971 --> 00:32:54,138
It's not for me to say.

567
00:32:54,222 --> 00:32:57,600
People can be their own judge
of whether they took it too far.

568
00:32:57,684 --> 00:33:01,396
You know, I'm just proud of us
for being able to win, um, today

569
00:33:01,479 --> 00:33:03,815
with, you know, what we had to go through.

570
00:33:03,898 --> 00:33:05,692
<i>If America's gonna win,</i>

571
00:33:05,775 --> 00:33:08,194
<i>they need to change</i>
<i>that scoreboard in their favor.</i>

572
00:33:08,277 --> 00:33:10,655
<i>This is not over. We know that.</i>
<i>Let's not jump ahead.</i>

573
00:33:10,738 --> 00:33:11,739
<i>But it's good as over.</i>

574
00:33:11,823 --> 00:33:13,032
<i>No, it's up.</i>

575
00:33:13,116 --> 00:33:16,911
- <i>You guys are better at this.</i>
- <i>Never seen anything like it.</i>

576
00:33:16,995 --> 00:33:19,622
<i>They were a heavyweight puncher</i>
<i>throwing punches at us.</i>

577
00:33:19,706 --> 00:33:21,791
<i>And we were taking them</i>
<i>and giving back stronger ones.</i>

578
00:33:25,003 --> 00:33:27,296
Well, the only good thing we can say

579
00:33:27,380 --> 00:33:30,258
from an American perspective
about Saturday at the Ryder Cup,

580
00:33:30,758 --> 00:33:31,718
it's over.

581
00:33:32,301 --> 00:33:33,136
That's it.

582
00:33:33,219 --> 00:33:37,181
You know, when you accept this role, you…

583
00:33:38,391 --> 00:33:40,852
you know the consequences
that come with it.

584
00:33:41,811 --> 00:33:44,355
I was in the back room with the captains,

585
00:33:45,440 --> 00:33:46,858
you know, staring at the score,

586
00:33:46,941 --> 00:33:49,861
and it was sad to look at that score.

587
00:33:49,944 --> 00:33:53,448
But, you know, I had a job to do
to go speak to the team.

588
00:33:54,198 --> 00:33:58,244
I really had to, like…
really had to get my shit together.

589
00:34:00,538 --> 00:34:04,417
I just reminded them
about how cool it would be

590
00:34:04,500 --> 00:34:09,338
to tell your 16-year-old self that you
were going out to play for your country

591
00:34:09,422 --> 00:34:11,049
at Bethpage Black the next day.

592
00:34:11,132 --> 00:34:14,594
How far everyone in this room has come
to get to this point,

593
00:34:14,677 --> 00:34:16,554
to even have this opportunity.

594
00:34:16,637 --> 00:34:17,513
And they kept…

595
00:34:18,097 --> 00:34:20,016
they kept saying, "We're gonna win this."

596
00:34:20,892 --> 00:34:22,560
I could tell that they meant it.

597
00:34:23,061 --> 00:34:25,897
And I was like, "Wow, who knows?"

598
00:34:30,651 --> 00:34:32,945
Come Sunday,
you know, everything's a bit tense.

599
00:34:33,029 --> 00:34:35,531
Everything's, um, heightened.

600
00:34:36,032 --> 00:34:38,701
Your mind is telling you,
like, "We're fine."

601
00:34:38,785 --> 00:34:42,080
But there's always this feeling
that anything can happen.

602
00:34:42,163 --> 00:34:43,164
Look at that.

603
00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:48,503
You know, talking about
"take care of your own point."

604
00:34:49,003 --> 00:34:52,465
"Let's try and win by a record margin."
That's the stuff of dreams.

605
00:34:52,548 --> 00:34:55,927
That wasn't very good, was it?
Let's hope I can do better than that.

606
00:34:56,427 --> 00:34:57,845
Fuck's sake.

607
00:34:57,929 --> 00:35:00,098
We're in a very, very strong position,

608
00:35:00,181 --> 00:35:01,891
but we can't let up.

609
00:35:01,974 --> 00:35:04,811
We have to go out there
and try and win the session.

610
00:35:05,728 --> 00:35:08,314
We poked the bear, now.
We expect them to come out swinging.

611
00:35:16,364 --> 00:35:19,283
<i>There have been</i>
<i>final day comebacks in Ryder Cup history,</i>

612
00:35:19,367 --> 00:35:22,453
<i>but if the US is to win</i>
<i>this Ryder Cup at Bethpage,</i>

613
00:35:22,537 --> 00:35:26,874
<i>it will be by far</i>
<i>the most monumental in history.</i>

614
00:35:26,958 --> 00:35:28,918
USA! USA!

615
00:35:29,001 --> 00:35:31,963
{\an8}Come on! USA! Let's go!

616
00:35:32,630 --> 00:35:34,882
We want this shit turned around, MJ.

617
00:35:34,966 --> 00:35:36,217
- No shit.
- Yeah.

618
00:35:41,514 --> 00:35:44,600
<i>We've had a late twist</i>
<i>with Victor Hovland withdrawing</i>

619
00:35:44,684 --> 00:35:46,644
<i>from today's matches with a neck injury,</i>

620
00:35:46,727 --> 00:35:48,938
{\an8}<i>which means Harris English sits out,</i>

621
00:35:49,438 --> 00:35:52,567
{\an8}<i>and half a point has gone to either side.</i>

622
00:35:53,317 --> 00:35:55,945
So there's a rule in Ryder Cup
that if a player withdraws,

623
00:35:56,028 --> 00:35:59,073
each team is awarded half a point
as if that match was halved,

624
00:35:59,157 --> 00:36:00,658
and the day begins.

625
00:36:00,741 --> 00:36:05,913
So all of a sudden, it's 12 to 5
for the Europeans entering Sunday.

626
00:36:06,831 --> 00:36:08,082
<i>Two points away,</i>

627
00:36:08,166 --> 00:36:12,420
<i>and Keegan Bradley wondering</i>
<i>how it's all gonna go today.</i>

628
00:36:13,462 --> 00:36:17,341
Yeah, that feeling's pretty… pretty awful
because there's nothing you can do.

629
00:36:17,425 --> 00:36:19,260
I didn't know this practice happened.

630
00:36:19,343 --> 00:36:23,514
You know, 99.9% of the captains
have never had to deal with this.

631
00:36:23,598 --> 00:36:25,766
The Americans aren't happy,
but rules are rules.

632
00:36:25,850 --> 00:36:29,937
And now the Europeans just need
two points out of 11 matches

633
00:36:30,021 --> 00:36:31,522
to retain the Ryder Cup.

634
00:36:32,023 --> 00:36:35,234
<i>And the Americans are</i>
<i>without one of their top-ranked players</i>

635
00:36:35,318 --> 00:36:36,485
<i>in Harris English.</i>

636
00:36:36,986 --> 00:36:42,909
Harris English, he handled this
with the most class.

637
00:36:43,784 --> 00:36:45,244
I don't even know the word for it.

638
00:36:45,995 --> 00:36:49,582
He keeps bringing up how he doesn't
want to make this about himself

639
00:36:49,665 --> 00:36:51,792
and he wants to do
what's right for the team.

640
00:36:51,876 --> 00:36:54,045
And I know
how much this means to the players,

641
00:36:54,128 --> 00:36:55,713
and I know how hard they're trying,

642
00:36:55,796 --> 00:37:01,594
and I know that they want nothing more
than to win for Harris English.

643
00:37:04,722 --> 00:37:06,557
The Europeans are only two points away

644
00:37:06,641 --> 00:37:10,144
from retaining the Ryder Cup
and making history on US soil.

645
00:37:11,520 --> 00:37:12,563
To earn a comeback,

646
00:37:12,647 --> 00:37:15,441
the US team needs 9½ points.

647
00:37:16,192 --> 00:37:18,236
They have to dominate every single match.

648
00:37:18,736 --> 00:37:20,529
There's no margin for error.

649
00:37:21,030 --> 00:37:25,701
And… I think
we're all just holding our breath.

650
00:37:26,369 --> 00:37:28,162
This is match number one

651
00:37:28,246 --> 00:37:32,166
between the European team,
represented by Justin Rose…

652
00:37:37,463 --> 00:37:40,758
…against
the United States of America team,

653
00:37:40,841 --> 00:37:43,302
represented by Cameron Young!

654
00:37:45,137 --> 00:37:48,015
Having the opportunity
to lead the team out on Sunday is

655
00:37:49,016 --> 00:37:50,184
an incredible honor.

656
00:37:50,768 --> 00:37:53,646
To go out number one is definitely…
You know, it's a statement.

657
00:37:56,774 --> 00:37:59,068
I was playing well, and I think my Sundays

658
00:37:59,151 --> 00:38:01,612
throughout the course of the season
have been strong.

659
00:38:03,572 --> 00:38:05,825
Honestly, a huge honor to go out first.

660
00:38:11,414 --> 00:38:15,626
I know Justin Rose has one of
the best records in his Ryder Cup career,

661
00:38:15,710 --> 00:38:20,172
{\an8}and I know I've gotta play some great golf
to have really any kind of chance.

662
00:38:20,256 --> 00:38:22,466
{\an8}<i>Young didn't even play the first session.</i>

663
00:38:22,550 --> 00:38:25,261
{\an8}<i>Now he's the first man out in singles.</i>

664
00:38:25,761 --> 00:38:27,763
We knew we had to get
Cameron Young on the course.

665
00:38:27,847 --> 00:38:31,392
He was playing exceptional golf.
Probably the best on the team.

666
00:38:32,935 --> 00:38:34,478
Get in the hole!

667
00:38:35,396 --> 00:38:36,480
<i>Good-looking.</i>

668
00:38:37,356 --> 00:38:40,443
{\an8}<i>Oh, that is right what they needed.</i>

669
00:38:40,526 --> 00:38:43,029
{\an8}<i>Cam Young, the native New Yorker.</i>

670
00:38:43,112 --> 00:38:44,780
<i>There's America up early.</i>

671
00:38:46,240 --> 00:38:50,244
{\an8}<i>So far through two days,</i>
<i>Europe has been relentless.</i>

672
00:38:52,288 --> 00:38:54,915
<i>The smasher Bryson, full swing.</i>

673
00:38:55,416 --> 00:38:58,044
<i>I think he likes it.</i>
<i>Well, he's chasing it.</i>

674
00:38:59,086 --> 00:39:02,465
{\an8}<i>Wow,</i>
<i>best drive of the week so far by anyone.</i>

675
00:39:02,965 --> 00:39:04,467
<i>Bryson's best.</i>

676
00:39:05,426 --> 00:39:09,013
<i>Bradley sends him off</i>
<i>down the hill with even more adrenaline.</i>

677
00:39:10,806 --> 00:39:12,933
{\an8}<i>Young for birdie at the 6th.</i>

678
00:39:13,017 --> 00:39:14,769
{\an8}Get in the hole!

679
00:39:16,020 --> 00:39:19,732
{\an8}<i>That's his third birdie</i>
<i>in the first six holes.</i>

680
00:39:21,025 --> 00:39:23,069
{\an8}<i>Go to Justin Thomas here at 6.</i>

681
00:39:24,362 --> 00:39:25,988
<i>Just off the fairway.</i>

682
00:39:28,157 --> 00:39:30,534
<i>Oh! There it is!</i>

683
00:39:31,160 --> 00:39:33,162
<i>Our first deuce from the fairway.</i>

684
00:39:33,662 --> 00:39:35,664
{\an8}<i>Soak it in, Justin Thomas.</i>

685
00:39:36,165 --> 00:39:39,752
{\an8}<i>Your side has not heard</i>
<i>anything like that all week.</i>

686
00:39:39,835 --> 00:39:41,712
USA! USA!

687
00:39:41,796 --> 00:39:43,005
<i>To the 7th.</i>

688
00:39:43,714 --> 00:39:46,092
{\an8}<i>Par putt. Bryson gotta have it.</i>

689
00:39:49,929 --> 00:39:53,557
{\an8}<i>Five up through seven. Amazing.</i>

690
00:39:53,641 --> 00:39:57,853
Bryson, if he loses that match early on
and he's only played for two hours,

691
00:39:57,937 --> 00:39:59,188
this could be over quick.

692
00:40:00,314 --> 00:40:02,191
{\an8}<i>Ben Griffin ready to go.</i>

693
00:40:03,818 --> 00:40:05,778
<i>Need a minor miracle today.</i>

694
00:40:07,613 --> 00:40:09,198
I got off to a great start.

695
00:40:10,282 --> 00:40:13,744
Used a lot of that fuel from Saturday
straight into that Sunday round.

696
00:40:13,828 --> 00:40:16,956
{\an8}<i>Ben Griffin,</i>
<i>a chance to win the hole and does.</i>

697
00:40:17,039 --> 00:40:18,290
Keegan made a point,

698
00:40:18,374 --> 00:40:21,669
{\an8}just don't look at what other guys
are doing, and focus on your match.

699
00:40:21,752 --> 00:40:23,963
But I wanted to see what guys were doing.

700
00:40:24,713 --> 00:40:27,967
{\an8}<i>Bryson.</i>
<i>This is a must-make, being four down.</i>

701
00:40:31,637 --> 00:40:33,514
<i>It has to start somewhere.</i>

702
00:40:33,597 --> 00:40:36,225
{\an8}<i>If there's to be a fightback,</i>
<i>that might be the moment.</i>

703
00:40:36,934 --> 00:40:43,232
{\an8}USA! USA! USA! USA! USA!

704
00:40:46,861 --> 00:40:50,364
{\an8}<i>McIlroy has backed off a couple of times.</i>

705
00:40:51,365 --> 00:40:53,701
{\an8}<i>Every time that they've heckled,</i>
<i>he's responded,</i>

706
00:40:53,784 --> 00:40:56,412
{\an8}<i>and usually it's been positive.</i>

707
00:41:00,416 --> 00:41:02,751
<i>Ooh! And not a good one.</i>

708
00:41:05,129 --> 00:41:06,714
<i>He needs to keep his cool</i>

709
00:41:06,797 --> 00:41:10,593
<i>'cause that's the worst shot</i>
<i>you will ever see from Rory McIlroy.</i>

710
00:41:11,927 --> 00:41:16,015
{\an8}<i>Let's head across to 14th where</i>
<i>Justin Rose is first to putt for birdie.</i>

711
00:41:18,392 --> 00:41:19,935
<i>Oh wow.</i>

712
00:41:21,228 --> 00:41:23,814
<i>Truly gutsy stuff</i>
<i>from Justin Rose, isn't it?</i>

713
00:41:23,898 --> 00:41:25,274
{\an8}<i>What a good match.</i>

714
00:41:35,075 --> 00:41:38,412
<i>Justin Thomas has bounced back</i>
<i>to take a blue off the board.</i>

715
00:41:39,580 --> 00:41:41,373
{\an8}<i>Keegan Bradley watched it.</i>

716
00:41:41,874 --> 00:41:43,959
{\an8}We're out there, chipping away,

717
00:41:44,043 --> 00:41:46,170
{\an8}and we saw some putts go down.

718
00:41:46,253 --> 00:41:49,089
{\an8}We saw some celebration from the guys,
and it was awesome.

719
00:41:49,715 --> 00:41:51,383
{\an8}<i>J.J. Spaun.</i>

720
00:41:52,510 --> 00:41:53,385
{\an8}<i>To win the hole.</i>

721
00:41:53,469 --> 00:41:56,222
{\an8}<i>He was two down through three.</i>
<i>He's taken the lead.</i>

722
00:41:56,305 --> 00:41:59,558
I gotta keep pressing. There's no letup.

723
00:42:01,227 --> 00:42:04,021
{\an8}I just remember that US Open finish I had.

724
00:42:04,104 --> 00:42:06,357
If I could do it there, I can do it here.

725
00:42:06,440 --> 00:42:10,611
{\an8}<i>J.J. Spaun continues</i>
<i>to play well after yesterday's late surge.</i>

726
00:42:11,862 --> 00:42:14,865
{\an8}<i>This is Ben Griffin for a birdie.</i>

727
00:42:17,243 --> 00:42:18,786
<i>He and Højgaard are tied.</i>

728
00:42:18,869 --> 00:42:21,789
{\an8}<i>Griffin from way out.</i>

729
00:42:23,415 --> 00:42:27,211
{\an8}Being in the third to last group,
I had six or seven matches in front of me,

730
00:42:27,294 --> 00:42:29,713
so I could hear all the energy
at the same time.

731
00:42:29,797 --> 00:42:31,757
Certainly, we're not gonna
pull off this miracle.

732
00:42:31,840 --> 00:42:35,678
In my mind, I'm doing my part to try to
win this match. That's all I can control.

733
00:42:35,761 --> 00:42:38,931
But back of my head, I'm like, "This
would be crazy if this actually happens."

734
00:42:40,516 --> 00:42:43,894
{\an8}<i>This is DeChambeau</i>
<i>to win the hole on Fitzpatrick,</i>

735
00:42:43,978 --> 00:42:45,229
<i>who's in for bogey.</i>

736
00:42:45,312 --> 00:42:46,730
Gotta make it, big D!

737
00:42:48,732 --> 00:42:51,944
{\an8}<i>Looks like we might have</i>
<i>a Ryder Cup on our hands, folks.</i>

738
00:42:52,027 --> 00:42:56,156
USA! USA! USA! USA!

739
00:42:56,240 --> 00:42:58,075
With the course, the way it was set up,

740
00:42:58,158 --> 00:43:00,202
no rough,
obviously the greens were soft,

741
00:43:00,286 --> 00:43:02,955
it makes it hard
to separate yourself from players.

742
00:43:03,455 --> 00:43:04,873
And we saw that in the singles.

743
00:43:04,957 --> 00:43:08,085
And so a lot of the matches went to 18.

744
00:43:11,046 --> 00:43:13,882
{\an8}<i>Justin Rose tied with Cameron Young.</i>

745
00:43:13,966 --> 00:43:15,342
<i>This for another birdie.</i>

746
00:43:20,598 --> 00:43:22,850
{\an8}<i>Never was on line.</i>

747
00:43:25,269 --> 00:43:27,187
When he missed, it's shocking, honestly.

748
00:43:27,271 --> 00:43:31,358
It's hard to believe that I have
this opportunity in front of me.

749
00:43:31,942 --> 00:43:33,777
<i>So Young will have his chance</i>

750
00:43:33,861 --> 00:43:39,241
<i>to take out one of Europe's</i>
<i>all-time greats to win the match.</i>

751
00:43:39,825 --> 00:43:42,328
You have two different things
in your mind at the time.

752
00:43:42,411 --> 00:43:43,454
You're like, "On one hand,

753
00:43:43,537 --> 00:43:46,665
what's my process look like
to execute this putt well?"

754
00:43:46,749 --> 00:43:49,168
And on the other hand,
I'm sitting there, like,

755
00:43:49,251 --> 00:43:52,963
"I have a putt to beat Justin Rose on 18
in a Ryder Cup in New York."

756
00:43:58,135 --> 00:44:01,305
{\an8}<i>And Cameron Young has come full circle.</i>

757
00:44:02,306 --> 00:44:05,100
{\an8}<i>It has given the entire US side some hope.</i>

758
00:44:07,561 --> 00:44:08,395
In the hole!

759
00:44:08,479 --> 00:44:11,940
<i>Back at 18, right rough for Justin Thomas.</i>

760
00:44:15,819 --> 00:44:17,738
Justin Thomas!

761
00:44:17,821 --> 00:44:19,740
<i>Again, it is still improbable,</i>

762
00:44:19,823 --> 00:44:22,242
<i>but the United States trying to pull off,</i>

763
00:44:22,326 --> 00:44:26,205
<i>by far, the greatest final day comeback</i>
<i>in Ryder Cup history.</i>

764
00:44:27,331 --> 00:44:32,586
{\an8}<i>This is a big putt for Fitzpatrick</i>
<i>from seven feet for par to tie the hole</i>

765
00:44:32,670 --> 00:44:34,588
{\an8}<i>and keep his one-up lead.</i>

766
00:44:37,716 --> 00:44:41,178
{\an8}<i>And DeChambeau</i>
<i>has caught up with one left.</i>

767
00:44:41,762 --> 00:44:44,264
{\an8}<i>He looks like he could</i>
<i>lift up a house right now.</i>

768
00:44:47,226 --> 00:44:48,310
<i>At 18.</i>

769
00:44:49,478 --> 00:44:52,314
<i>And Fleetwood has given JT</i>
<i>a chance to win it.</i>

770
00:44:59,863 --> 00:45:01,240
{\an8}Get in the hole!

771
00:45:06,245 --> 00:45:12,126
{\an8}<i>Two clutch birdie putts</i>
<i>by the Americans at the 18th.</i>

772
00:45:13,210 --> 00:45:17,172
<i>Maybe the impossible</i>
<i>is starting to become possible.</i>

773
00:45:18,674 --> 00:45:23,846
<i>Over at 15,</i>
<i>Xander Schauffele, a 4and3 winner.</i>

774
00:45:23,929 --> 00:45:25,848
<i>He takes down Rahm.</i>

775
00:45:25,931 --> 00:45:29,685
{\an8}<i>All of a sudden, the Americans</i>
<i>are taking down Europe's best.</i>

776
00:45:31,687 --> 00:45:33,605
<i>No matter what way it turns out from here,</i>

777
00:45:33,689 --> 00:45:37,317
<i>I think Keegan will be very pleased</i>
<i>with what happened today.</i>

778
00:45:37,818 --> 00:45:40,195
- Go, baby!
- Let's go, man!

779
00:45:40,863 --> 00:45:42,322
Let's go, baby!

780
00:45:42,406 --> 00:45:44,616
We were hearing American cheers nonstop.

781
00:45:45,117 --> 00:45:48,787
I'm like, "They're feeling it, guys.
Keep putting the pressure."

782
00:45:52,332 --> 00:45:54,293
{\an8}<i>Boy, is Henley making some putts.</i>

783
00:45:54,376 --> 00:45:55,461
{\an8}<i>He's two up.</i>

784
00:45:55,544 --> 00:45:58,839
{\an8}As I got around the back nine,
I lost at 13 and 14 and I was like,

785
00:45:58,922 --> 00:46:01,842
"This could actually be
the biggest disaster of all time."

786
00:46:01,925 --> 00:46:04,928
It just all of a sudden feels like
we're just running downhill.

787
00:46:05,012 --> 00:46:08,056
The unthinkable starts
to creep into your mind, for sure.

788
00:46:08,682 --> 00:46:12,144
{\an8}<i>And over at 17,</i>
<i>Scheffler to keep that one-up lead.</i>

789
00:46:15,439 --> 00:46:18,776
<i>Scheffler, winless thus far,</i>

790
00:46:18,859 --> 00:46:21,695
{\an8}<i>hoping he finally gets a W on Sunday.</i>

791
00:46:24,782 --> 00:46:26,116
{\an8}Get in the hole!

792
00:46:26,200 --> 00:46:28,327
{\an8}<i>J.J. Spaun rolling it in.</i>

793
00:46:28,410 --> 00:46:31,872
{\an8}<i>- It's gotten contagious for the US.</i>
- <i>The putters have flipped.</i>

794
00:46:31,955 --> 00:46:34,541
{\an8}<i>The Americans are making</i>
<i>all the important putts.</i>

795
00:46:35,584 --> 00:46:39,463
That was the time I finally looked
at the board and saw, like, a lot of red.

796
00:46:39,546 --> 00:46:40,839
Said, "Oh boy, here we go."

797
00:46:42,674 --> 00:46:45,385
{\an8}<i>And then on the back collar here at 17,</i>

798
00:46:45,469 --> 00:46:48,764
{\an8}<i>Cantlay has to make</i>
<i>to continue it with Åberg.</i>

799
00:46:53,310 --> 00:46:55,938
{\an8}<i>Not this time for Patty Ice.</i>

800
00:46:57,272 --> 00:46:59,900
{\an8}<i>And Europe on the precipice.</i>

801
00:47:02,861 --> 00:47:04,571
{\an8}<i>The cup is on the line right here.</i>

802
00:47:04,655 --> 00:47:07,241
<i>If Bryson DeChambeau misses this putt,</i>

803
00:47:07,324 --> 00:47:10,744
<i>just like that, Europe retains the cup.</i>

804
00:47:16,917 --> 00:47:20,295
<i>But DeChambeau</i>
<i>holds off Europe for just a little longer.</i>

805
00:47:21,672 --> 00:47:25,926
<i>A great effort by Bryson. Again,</i>
<i>five down through the first seven holes.</i>

806
00:47:26,009 --> 00:47:29,805
{\an8}<i>He's able to get</i>
<i>the half point with Fitzpatrick.</i>

807
00:47:31,014 --> 00:47:33,016
{\an8}<i>Well, that means that Europe are now</i>

808
00:47:33,100 --> 00:47:37,145
{\an8}<i>within half a point of retaining,</i>
<i>at 13½ to 8½.</i>

809
00:47:37,229 --> 00:47:38,814
{\an8}Got a half point from Fitz.

810
00:47:39,523 --> 00:47:40,983
Okay, that's half.

811
00:47:41,066 --> 00:47:44,278
You know, you're looking at leaderboards.
Every match is close.

812
00:47:44,945 --> 00:47:47,072
{\an8}<i>Shane Lowry at 15.</i>

813
00:47:49,199 --> 00:47:51,410
<i>Two down against Russell Henley.</i>

814
00:47:52,828 --> 00:47:55,873
{\an8}<i>Ho, ho, oh, big shot right there.</i>

815
00:47:59,668 --> 00:48:02,713
{\an8}<i>What a three from Lowry.</i>

816
00:48:02,796 --> 00:48:04,089
{\an8}<i>Halves the deficit.</i>

817
00:48:05,215 --> 00:48:07,134
{\an8}<i>And coming over to 18.</i>

818
00:48:07,634 --> 00:48:11,221
{\an8}<i>World number one over world number two.</i>

819
00:48:11,305 --> 00:48:13,765
{\an8}<i>One up victory for Scottie Scheffler.</i>

820
00:48:14,474 --> 00:48:17,895
<i>US still has to run the table</i>
<i>down the stretch.</i>

821
00:48:19,563 --> 00:48:21,398
{\an8}<i>Over here at 17,</i>

822
00:48:21,481 --> 00:48:26,570
{\an8}<i>J.J. Spaun needs just two putts</i>
<i>to win the match on Sepp Straka.</i>

823
00:48:27,070 --> 00:48:29,281
{\an8}<i>That's gonna do it for J.J. Spaun.</i>

824
00:48:31,408 --> 00:48:33,577
Let's go!

825
00:48:34,703 --> 00:48:36,705
<i>We'll see more of him in Ryder Cups.</i>

826
00:48:37,581 --> 00:48:41,960
Having JT, Cam, Pat all right there
on the green watching my match

827
00:48:42,044 --> 00:48:47,132
and everyone just storming the green
like I just scored a winning touchdown,

828
00:48:47,215 --> 00:48:49,885
it was, like, a feeling
I've never had before on a golf course.

829
00:48:51,470 --> 00:48:54,640
<i>The US clinging to hopes.</i>

830
00:48:54,723 --> 00:48:56,099
<i>They gotta get the full point</i>

831
00:48:56,183 --> 00:48:58,268
{\an8}<i>in all four matches.</i>

832
00:48:58,769 --> 00:49:03,565
{\an8}<i>Europe could retain the cup right here</i>
<i>if Lowry wins this hole.</i>

833
00:49:08,153 --> 00:49:10,280
{\an8}- <i>Oh, Shane Lowry!</i>
- <i>Yep.</i>

834
00:49:13,617 --> 00:49:15,452
Walking down to 18, I said to my caddie,

835
00:49:15,535 --> 00:49:18,246
"I've got the chance to do
one of the coolest things in my life."

836
00:49:18,330 --> 00:49:19,706
Literally, I said that to him.

837
00:49:19,790 --> 00:49:23,961
And I think the fact that I said that
and I was aware of the situation I was in,

838
00:49:24,044 --> 00:49:25,879
um, really helped me.

839
00:49:25,963 --> 00:49:28,382
When you're nervous
and you're in those situations,

840
00:49:28,465 --> 00:49:30,676
{\an8}you need to get it out.
I need to talk about it.

841
00:49:32,928 --> 00:49:34,554
<i>Russell to go first.</i>

842
00:49:36,556 --> 00:49:38,809
<i>The US needs to run the tables.</i>

843
00:49:38,892 --> 00:49:41,979
<i>Cannot afford one halved game.</i>

844
00:49:44,648 --> 00:49:46,942
- We've got it.
- We're gonna have to.

845
00:49:47,442 --> 00:49:48,485
<i>Amazing.</i>

846
00:49:48,568 --> 00:49:51,405
<i>They've actually put themselves</i>
<i>in position to have a chance.</i>

847
00:49:51,905 --> 00:49:54,241
<i>To win the full point.</i>

848
00:49:54,741 --> 00:49:56,034
Get in the hole!

849
00:49:57,369 --> 00:49:58,412
Aw!

850
00:50:03,500 --> 00:50:08,463
<i>So Henley opens the door,</i>
<i>and Lowry's trying to jump in here.</i>

851
00:50:08,964 --> 00:50:13,301
<i>Lowry with this putt to tie up this match.</i>

852
00:50:15,554 --> 00:50:18,181
It's mad what goes
through your head in those moments.

853
00:50:18,265 --> 00:50:21,018
<i>There's only one Shane Lowry!</i>

854
00:50:21,101 --> 00:50:24,312
The crowd at the back of the 18th
are so close to the edge of the green.

855
00:50:24,396 --> 00:50:26,273
The American players and wives,

856
00:50:26,356 --> 00:50:28,442
you can just see them
jumping around the place.

857
00:50:28,525 --> 00:50:29,860
USA!

858
00:50:29,943 --> 00:50:32,571
<i>Chance for Lowry.</i>
<i>This is your moment, Shane.</i>

859
00:50:32,654 --> 00:50:35,699
<i>This is it. To retain the cup for Europe</i>

860
00:50:36,450 --> 00:50:39,161
<i>with one stroke of the putter.</i>

861
00:50:39,244 --> 00:50:42,622
I don't think I'll ever have
or feel that much pressure again.

862
00:50:50,213 --> 00:50:52,841
<i>And Shane Lowry has done it!</i>

863
00:50:52,924 --> 00:50:57,888
{\an8}<i>Europe pulls off</i>
<i>one of the biggest upsets on US soil.</i>

864
00:51:03,393 --> 00:51:04,394
We did it.

865
00:51:04,978 --> 00:51:08,023
That's what counts, you know, 14½.
Fuckin' A, you did it.

866
00:51:10,567 --> 00:51:14,404
Shane Lowry,
you look in disbelief. Tell us all.

867
00:51:19,284 --> 00:51:23,371
I mean, I've been so lucky to experience
amazing things in this game.

868
00:51:23,455 --> 00:51:24,581
Ah.

869
00:51:25,499 --> 00:51:28,627
That was the hardest couple of hours
of my whole life, honestly.

870
00:51:28,710 --> 00:51:29,628
I…

871
00:51:30,128 --> 00:51:33,924
I just can't believe that putt went in.
I stood over it going, "This is it."

872
00:51:34,007 --> 00:51:37,928
And, like, the Ryder Cup
means everything to me, honestly.

873
00:51:38,011 --> 00:51:40,889
{\an8}- Partner!
- Partner!

874
00:51:40,972 --> 00:51:43,266
You beast. You absolute beast!

875
00:51:43,350 --> 00:51:45,602
It wasn't even joy. It was like relief.

876
00:51:45,685 --> 00:51:48,563
I think that whole celebration
was just pure relief.

877
00:51:48,647 --> 00:51:52,275
Honestly, I think the Ryder Cup
is everything. I really do.

878
00:52:01,159 --> 00:52:03,453
Appreciate you. I appreciate you, brother.

879
00:52:04,454 --> 00:52:06,081
{\an8}I know it wasn't the same but…

880
00:52:11,211 --> 00:52:12,212
Shit happens.

881
00:52:12,295 --> 00:52:14,005
Like, it doesn't always work out, and so…

882
00:52:15,549 --> 00:52:17,759
So grateful to have gotten
to experience this Ryder Cup.

883
00:52:17,843 --> 00:52:22,264
I mean, it's really cool to have been
a part of that team and see the fight

884
00:52:22,347 --> 00:52:24,432
and see the passion
from every single player.

885
00:52:24,516 --> 00:52:27,435
I'm really proud of you.
You really almost had 'em.

886
00:52:27,519 --> 00:52:29,479
We weren't really supposed to do this, but

887
00:52:29,563 --> 00:52:31,815
I just escaped the team for a little bit

888
00:52:31,898 --> 00:52:34,317
and just went and found,
like, the family area

889
00:52:34,401 --> 00:52:36,111
and just shared, like, uh,

890
00:52:36,611 --> 00:52:39,156
I don't know,
like a 20-minute moment with, um,

891
00:52:40,240 --> 00:52:41,199
yeah, my family,

892
00:52:41,283 --> 00:52:44,411
Dana's dad, and just kind of
soaked it all in.

893
00:52:44,494 --> 00:52:45,537
It was pretty cool.

894
00:52:49,040 --> 00:52:52,627
I congratulated Luke and told him
just how really incredible it was

895
00:52:52,711 --> 00:52:56,631
to watch his team play the way they did
at such a high level.

896
00:52:56,715 --> 00:52:58,175
I can say, without question,

897
00:52:58,258 --> 00:53:00,969
I think Luke is the best
European Ryder Cup captain ever.

898
00:53:01,052 --> 00:53:04,514
You know, in sports, sometimes
there's Monday morning quarterbacking.

899
00:53:04,598 --> 00:53:07,017
Is there anything
you might have done differently?

900
00:53:07,100 --> 00:53:10,687
I don't know. They… they played better.
They deserve to win. They're a great team.

901
00:53:12,272 --> 00:53:15,734
I'm never gonna get over this.
It's just never gonna happen.

902
00:53:16,610 --> 00:53:19,571
<i>You're getting sacked In the morning!</i>

903
00:53:19,654 --> 00:53:23,241
I'm really emotionally tired from this.

904
00:53:24,117 --> 00:53:25,952
<i>You're getting sacked</i>

905
00:53:27,621 --> 00:53:31,249
I'm trying to put this behind me,
but it's impossible.

906
00:53:31,333 --> 00:53:32,542
I've come to the realization

907
00:53:32,626 --> 00:53:36,463
that I actually just have to figure out
a way of living with this.

908
00:53:40,342 --> 00:53:42,344
Way to go, Keegan!

909
00:53:44,804 --> 00:53:48,516
<i>We are the champions!</i>

910
00:53:48,600 --> 00:53:52,145
<i>No time for losers!</i>

911
00:53:52,229 --> 00:53:54,314
Luke, you've just joined Tony Jacklin

912
00:53:54,397 --> 00:53:57,442
as the only European Ryder Cup captain
to win home and away.

913
00:53:57,525 --> 00:54:00,278
What does this victory mean to you?
What does it mean to your team?

914
00:54:01,071 --> 00:54:04,908
It's got to be the most stressful
12 hours of my life. Um…

915
00:54:04,991 --> 00:54:09,704
Shout-out to the Americans
and Keegan and his captaincy. Um…

916
00:54:09,788 --> 00:54:12,958
But this means a lot,
obviously, to me and the team.

917
00:54:13,041 --> 00:54:16,002
Couldn't be more proud of these guys,
what they've gone through.

918
00:54:16,503 --> 00:54:18,838
And now they'll be talked
for generations to come now

919
00:54:18,922 --> 00:54:21,132
as someone that will go down in history.

920
00:54:42,320 --> 00:54:46,616
<i>Shoes off if you won the cup!</i>
<i>Shoes off!</i>

921
00:54:46,700 --> 00:54:48,660
Oh, a great feeling. Um…

922
00:54:49,244 --> 00:54:51,288
{\an8}It was very tense for a long time today,

923
00:54:51,371 --> 00:54:54,666
{\an8}but, uh, the boys grinded and kept going,
and it was amazing.

924
00:54:54,749 --> 00:54:56,918
Just so happy for all of these people.

925
00:54:57,752 --> 00:55:01,756
<i>Shoes off if you won the cup!</i>
<i>Shoes off…</i>

926
00:55:03,883 --> 00:55:10,056
Two more years!
Two more years! Two more years!

927
00:55:23,278 --> 00:55:24,738
Yes, we lost.

928
00:55:24,821 --> 00:55:26,906
It was tough, but we didn't shy away.

929
00:55:26,990 --> 00:55:31,536
We didn't let everything fold. We went out
on Sunday and just fought our hardest.

930
00:55:31,619 --> 00:55:33,747
We fought for the country.
We fought for Keegan.

931
00:55:33,830 --> 00:55:36,249
We fought for each other, and it showed.

932
00:55:36,958 --> 00:55:40,795
I think by the time the week's over,
we all created this… this new bond.

933
00:55:41,546 --> 00:55:46,593
And it was just so cool to be accepted
into, like, this circle of guys

934
00:55:46,676 --> 00:55:48,053
and be treated as one of their own.

935
00:55:48,136 --> 00:55:50,638
It's been certainly
a highlight of my career.

936
00:55:51,431 --> 00:55:52,932
It's such an incredible week.

937
00:55:53,016 --> 00:55:57,354
I mean, main takeaway is just how much
I would love to skip two years ahead

938
00:55:57,437 --> 00:55:59,397
and go try to beat that same team again.

939
00:56:00,815 --> 00:56:02,901
I will be forever grateful for this group.

940
00:56:02,984 --> 00:56:04,986
It's such a weird thing to have such a…

941
00:56:07,238 --> 00:56:08,865
such a soft spot in your heart

942
00:56:08,948 --> 00:56:10,784
for something
that has such a horrible ending.

943
00:56:11,785 --> 00:56:14,662
But then I think about all the moments
that I had with the guys

944
00:56:14,746 --> 00:56:16,164
hanging out together.

945
00:56:16,247 --> 00:56:19,793
You know, all the times that we had
leading up and the dinners that we had.

946
00:56:20,418 --> 00:56:23,755
I would just love to win one Ryder Cup
before I'm done.

947
00:56:25,423 --> 00:56:28,134
Like, literally, Keegan
could not have been a better captain.

948
00:56:28,218 --> 00:56:30,720
He did everything with so much passion.

949
00:56:30,804 --> 00:56:34,808
All the guys told me they couldn't believe
how great of an experience they had.

950
00:56:34,891 --> 00:56:37,143
It sucks that we weren't able
to win for him.

951
00:56:37,227 --> 00:56:41,564
Hopefully, people can remember this
Ryder Cup for the fight we had on Sunday.

952
00:56:42,190 --> 00:56:43,525
Keegan's been a great guy.

953
00:56:43,608 --> 00:56:46,486
He's been there for us.
He's been very vocal.

954
00:56:46,569 --> 00:56:48,363
Did such a great job inspiring us,

955
00:56:48,446 --> 00:56:51,157
and he's been the leader.

956
00:56:51,241 --> 00:56:54,452
Keegan's fanta…
I thought he did an awesome job.

957
00:56:54,536 --> 00:56:56,162
So I know it was a hard situation for him,

958
00:56:56,246 --> 00:56:58,415
but I think
he embraced it incredibly well.

959
00:56:58,498 --> 00:56:59,707
Perfect captain, to me.

960
00:56:59,791 --> 00:57:02,252
And I couldn't have asked
for any more than that.

961
00:57:03,044 --> 00:57:05,755
And, you know,
I'd love to play for him again.

962
00:57:20,687 --> 00:57:23,690
This win, I think, means…
…so much to Team Europe.

963
00:57:24,274 --> 00:57:27,694
The gravity of the achievement
was not lost on us.

964
00:57:27,777 --> 00:57:31,030
It was almost a little bit surreal
that we'd done it.

965
00:57:33,867 --> 00:57:36,202
Celebrating as a team,
there's nothing like it.

966
00:57:36,286 --> 00:57:37,120
Yes!

967
00:57:37,620 --> 00:57:43,251
For me personally, it was like,
I want this day to last as long as it can.

968
00:57:44,252 --> 00:57:47,464
<i>Europe's victory</i>
<i>over the Americans is historic.</i>

969
00:57:47,547 --> 00:57:52,051
<i>They pulled of their first win</i>
<i>on foreign soil since Medina.</i>

970
00:57:54,220 --> 00:57:56,514
<i>And it's also</i>
<i>only the second time in history</i>

971
00:57:56,598 --> 00:57:59,809
<i>that a captain has won back-to-back.</i>

972
00:57:59,893 --> 00:58:01,603
It's kind of a pinch-me moment

973
00:58:01,686 --> 00:58:04,856
when someone says you're
the greatest Ryder Cup captain ever.

974
00:58:06,316 --> 00:58:08,776
You know, I found my calling in a way.

975
00:58:09,486 --> 00:58:11,821
I get a lot of the plaudits as captain,

976
00:58:11,905 --> 00:58:17,785
but I'm very fortunate to be a small cog
in a very much larger plan of people

977
00:58:17,869 --> 00:58:20,705
who care about
what the Ryder Cup represents.

978
00:58:21,456 --> 00:58:23,791
It's been a blessing, really,
and, um, my job

979
00:58:23,875 --> 00:58:29,589
is to keep imprinting those lessons
and the history on those players,

980
00:58:30,089 --> 00:58:33,927
making them feel
they're playing for more than themselves.

981
00:58:34,010 --> 00:58:35,595
Would you do it again?
