Farmingdale, NY – “Warning: the black field is an extremely difficult course that we recommend only for European golfers.”
That is what the infamous sign when entering Bethpage Black could also say after the second day of the Ryder Cup in Farmingdale.
After a 3-1 exhibition in the morning, the euros fought through the teasing of fans and tensions inside the ropes to attract another three points to the American session and expand their advantage to 11.5-4.5.

With an opportunity for the United States to steal the final game on 18, Tyrrell Hatton and Matt Fitzpatrick hit their iron shots inside three feet, while Sam Burns and Patrick Cantlay were distance, changing the entire impulse brought by JJ Spaun only a few minutes before after he took 18 to win his game.
This year’s first Ryder Cup talk had been that the United States would have an incredible advantage of the field of origin. Apparently, it has been anything but, however, the crowds tried to do their part. However, some may have crossed lines.
Rory Mcilroy and Shane Lowry heard him from fans all day. Mcilroy was seen telling a fan to “close the F — in the morning session. Lowry had to be stopped by a caddie in the tenth tee and asked the security to escort a fanatic. Lowry also receded a shot twice when fans told the seconds he took to balance. In the six, he looked a fan in particular after dropping a Putt Half a hole.

Golf Digest reported that, through four holes, there were 30 F bombs directed towards Mcilroy. Many other insults about his Irish inheritance and even his performance in Pinehurst No. 2 were heard in the 2024 United States Open. A fan was threatened with the expulsion for safety in Green 15 after swearing to Mcilroy.
In more playful jokes, this time on the 16th in the afternoon, a Quiró fanatic of Mcilroy saying that “it is not so good.” Mcilroy responded quickly: “I’m really well” and smoked a trip through the middle.
However, they were not just fans who exchanged jokes with the players.
Bryson Dechambeau and Tommy Fleetwood got into Green’s 15, since the caddies also began sharing jokes. Fleetwood then obtained his fourth point in so many games this weekend in the next hole, since his partner Justin Rose Birdied to win the match, 3 and 2. Fleetwood now has 11-3-2 in his career in his Ryder Cup race, the best record of any euro with at least 10 games played.

While Fleetwood is a legend of the Ryder Cup, the number 1 of the world Scottie Scheffler is the opposite. He has 0-4-0 this weekend and became the first player since 1971 to lose his first three games and then leave again for a room on Saturday.
Facing the largest deficit that enters Sunday under the current format of 28 points (since 1979), the United States needs 10 points to win the Ryder Cup. That would be the greatest number of points ever scored by a team in the history of the event, and only 12 are available in Sunday singles.
