Europeans failed to comeback on the last day in Minnestota

The European victory streak in the Ryder Cup came to an end on Sunday with the first US triumph in eight years at Hazeltine National Golf Club in Chaska Minn.

The 41st Ryder Cup Matches were held in the United States from September 30 to October 2, 2016, at the Hazeltine National Golf Club in Chaska, Minnesota. Europe entered the competition as the cup holders, having won in 2014 in Scotland for their third consecutive win.

Darren Clarke’s men entered this season looking for the fourth consecutive success, but experienced a setback right at the opening session of pairs losing all four matches and showed up for the 12 singles of the last day with a handicap of 3 points (6,5- 9,5).

The winner of the British Open and silver medal at the Olympic Games, Henrik Stenson and rookies Thomas Pieters and Rafa Cabrera-Bello, won their matches and gave some hope for a European twist, but the American victories of Patrick Reed, Rickie Fowler, Brooks Koepka and Brandt Snedeker, and a tie with Phil Mickelson put the US en route to regain the trophy.

The victory was sealed when Ryan Moore defeated Lee Westwood in the 18 per 1up, offering redemption to the US and its captain Davis Love III of the “Miracle of Medinah” in 2012, when Europe came from behind 4 points (6-10 ) to win sensationally in the last match. Zach Johnson and Dustin Johnson reinforced the American score with German Martin Kaymer defeating Matt Kuchar putting the final result in 17-11.

Rory McIlroy and Patrick Reed led their teams throughout the tournament, and facing each other in singles, produced a front nine of the highest quality in the first match of the day, making eight birdies and one eagle between them and turning to the back nine tied.
