Who expected a new record on the first day, but Rory McIlroy and Tommy Fleetwood have done that by continuing their dominance at the Ryder Cup. The European duo, playing against Collin Morikawa and Harris English, broke the 21-year-old record. Starting the foursome round, McIlroy and McIlroy-Fleetwood dominated from the first hole and concluded the match after 15 holes only.

Team Europe won by 5&4. The American side was defeated, with just a 9th-hole victory and four holes ending in a tie, marking the best performance in the entire match. The margin became the most significant margin victory against the home team since 2001. Last time, Westwood/Clarke defeated DiMarco/Haas 5&4 in the 2004 Saturday foursomes.

The chances of winning for the American team started at 25% after the first hole. Still, they continued to decline as Collin Morikawa and Harris English’s tumbling performance couldn’t stop the decline.
