What happened in the Ryder Cup 2023, Day 2? Results explored
Besides Koepka and Scheffler's historic defeat at the Ryder Cup, Justin Thomas and Jordan Spieth faced a loss against Rory McIlroy and Tommy Fleetwood in the opener. Jon Rahm and Tyrrell Hatton outperformed Patrick Cantlay and Xander Schauffele in another foursome.
The duo of Max Homa and Brian Harman provided the only high point for the Americans, earning their first win of the week by defeating Sepp Straka and Shane Lowry. After the Saturday morning session, the visitors found themselves seven points behind Europe, with only one win and three halved points.
However, the US displayed a much-improved performance in the afternoon session, securing three wins against one loss. Collin Morikawa and Sam Burns won the first four-ball match against Hovland and Aberg. Homa and Harman secured another point by defeating Tommy Fleetwood and Nicolai Højgaard.
While Thomas and Spieth were beaten by Justin Rose and Rob Macintyre, Patrick Cantlay and Wyndham Clark stepped up for America to keep their hopes alive.
Amidst the rumors of protests and continuous cheering from the European crowd, Cantlay holed three birdies in the final three holes to beat McIlroy and Fitzpatrick 1-up.
Now, the visitors stand with 5.5 points against Europe's 10.5. While the calculations and scenarios favor the hosts, one can expect a tough battle from the Americans on the final day of the Ryder Cup 2023.
