Two years ago after winning in Rome, Rory McIlory made the bold prediction that Team Europe would win the 2025 Ryder Cup on the road at Bethpage Black. On Sunday, they got that done but it sure didn't come easy down the stretch as Team USA had their frantic comeback attempt come up just short.
McIlroy, and even his wife, were the targets of many unruly fans all weekend long at Bethpage, which must make the historic win on foreign soil feel all the better. While McIlroy didn't win his singles match on Sunday, losing to world No. 1 Scottie Scheffler 1-up, he had a strong showing in his five matches, going 3-1-1.
