Ryder Cup 2023 Live: Day 2 scores and results as Ram extends European lead and pairs announced in the afternoon

Ryder Cup: Spectators get on track for the start of the 2023 tournament

Like a pair of Vikings, Norway’s Viktor Hovland and Sweden’s Ludwig Aberg beat American duo Scottie Scheffler and Brooks Koepka by the largest margin in modern Ryder Cup history as Europe’s rout of the United States continued on Saturday morning.

They showed no mercy, trampling the stunned Americans onto Marco Simone’s court to claim a stunning 9&7 victory in the second four-rounder of the morning. He surpassed the record of 7 and 6 for a four-man match in the biennial competition, which had been achieved three times.

Rory McIlroy and Tommy Fleetwood beat Jordan Spieth and Justin Thomas 2&1 in a massive battle, before Max Homa and Brian Harman got the USA’s first win on the board against Seb Straka and Shane Lowry. But Jon Rahm’s goal on the 17th almost guaranteed Europe another point to take a 9½-2½ lead into the afternoon’s four balls.

Jon Rahm and Terrell Hatton enjoy a tense win

Both players had a rest for the afternoon and reluctantly accepted their fate.

“As a competitor, you want to keep going, but we had a couple of teams that finished early and had a good rest,” Rahm said. “(I had) 35 high-intensity holes. We were up three players and quickly found ourselves tied with four players to go, so it was mentally exhausting. At the end of the day, Luke has to do what he thinks is best.

Rory McIlroy discusses the European team room

“We talked last night about enjoying what we did yesterday but we came out without showing any mercy today and the way we started Ludwig and Viktor set the tone,” he said. “Happy to get another point in the European table.”

Tommy Fleetwood said he was honored to play alongside the Northern Irishman.

He said: “A lot of people on this planet dream of playing with Rory, and I was the one who had to do that for the past two mornings, and I’m happy to be part of the journey.” “There were a few hiccups here and there but we drilled the putts when we needed to and Rory bailed me out on the last two pitches there.”

Match 4: Rahm-Hatton A/S Scheufele-Cantlay (15)

It is controlled by cantlay chip. Ram skips more than he would have liked. Both teams will have similar shots from around eight feet, but it is Hatton who comes out first…
