Captain Luke Donald yesterday said he wants a ‘historic week’ from his team.
Europe’s Viktor Hovland and Ludvig Aberg celebrate on the second green during their foursomes match.
And his team has already delivered that at the Marco Simone course in Rome with Hovland and Aberg’s 9 and 7 destruction of Scottie Scheffler and Brooks Koepka, the only player in the field from the Saudi Arabia-backed rebel LIV Golf circuit. The Americans didn’t win a single match in a day for the first time yesterday and the board was dominated by blue today with the first pairing of Rory McIlroy and Tommy Fleetwood leading Jordan Spieth and Justin Thomas by two with three holes to play.
The day started in emotional fashion as glorious sunshine slowly crept over the course and buoyant home fans chanted “Europe’s on fire, USA is terrified” as McIlroy and Fleetwood waited to tee off in the opening match. A 4-0 whitewash in the foursomes had given the Americans a hill to climb as steep as those which undulate around an idiosyncratic Italian course given a major redesign for this year’s event.
