13 1/2 to 10 1/12
Four games out there. The US lead in two and two are all square.
-
Europe really could lose this by the barest of margins.
-
Shane Lowry with a putt to retain the Ryder Cup and in it goes!
The Irishman snatches a half on the last. Europe reach 14 points. The trophy will be going back to Europe.
-
But will this finish in a draw or a European victory?
-
14-11 with three to play.
-
Don't that have the automatic half from the injury match?

That's already counted in the 14 points.
-
Three matches out there. USA are ahead by one point in two matches and one is all square.
-
So many close matches.
-
Europe have a guaranteed half and win the Ryder Cup.
-
Morikawa and Hatton tie. Europe reach 14 1/2 and its mission accomplished. Their fifth win on American soil and their first for 13 years.
Captain Luke Donald has done it again. Two in a row.
But boy, did the Americans make that a stressful last few hours.
-
37 becomes 47. That's the number of European golfers who have won the Ryder Cup in the US.
-
Burns - MacIntyre finishes in a tie too.
The final score of the 2025 Ryder Cup is Europe 15, USA 13.

-
Utterly incredible that Americans got 8 points from a possible 11 available in Sunday's singles and still lost the contest overall
-
Plenty of salty Yanks out there moaning about the 'draw' after the injury withdrawal on SM.
Silly or not, it is what it is.

Everyone concerned knew about the envelope rule in advance. It's been there, rightly or wrongly, since 1979.
It was used in 1991 when the Americans won 14 1/2 to 13 1/2 to retake the Cup in the " war on the shore" in South Carolina.
Who knows, if Viktor Hovland had been fit, that he wouldn't have won a full point.
Even if a full point had gone to the Americans from his match, the European would have still won the 2025 Ryder Cup
The main reason the Americans lost this contest was that they got smashed in the foursomes and the fourballs on Friday and Saturday. Their post mortem should start and end with that.
