Team USA’s Patrick Cantlay finished with a flourish to complete a much-needed Saturday fightback for his side at the Ryder Cup.
After falling 3-1 to Europe in another miserable morning of foursomes at Marco Simone Golf Club in Rome, American captain Zach Johnson saw his side finally click into gear in the afternoon, Cantlay’s two closing birdies sealing a 3-1 fourballs win and a first session victory for the visitors. The World No. 5 paired with Wyndham Clark to edge Rory McIlroy and Matt Fitzpatrick 1-up and cut the overall deficit to 10.5 - 5.
Six-up after 12, it was a slightly uncomfortable landing as the European duo won the next two holes, but the American pair got over the line at the 15th to secure a satisfying victory over two home favorites. “We knew the crowds were going to be against us. We just kept fighting,” Burns, who taunted fans with an ear-cupping gesture after a birdie putt at the sixth hole, told reporters. “These guys are ready, we’re all positive and we know what we’re capable of.
