Europe’s captain, Luke Donald, has urged his team to go out and write their own history at the Ryder Cup – and pledged that his “very fearless” players are ready to win back the trophy.
Donald made his intentions clear by announcing that a fiery pairing of Jon Rahm and Tyrrell Hatton would lead Europe out for the Friday morning’s foursomes against the world No 1, Scottie Scheffler, and Sam Burns. But he said that all 12 of his men were primed and ready after a strong week of practice. “They’re very fearless,” he said. “They’re extremely good golfers. We’ve had a great few days together. The atmosphere in the team room is fantastic. Everyone is in good spirits. They’re motivated. There’s a lot of good energy. Everyone feels like they’re playing well. I’m excited for the guys just to take this all in, enjoy it, and write their own history this week.”
