"Europe has dominated the opening session of the 2025 Ryder Cup at Bethpage Black, winning three out of the four foursome matches to take a convincing 3-1 lead into the Friday afternoon four-balls. Jon Rahm and Tyrell Hatton set the pace for Europe after coming from behind to take the opening foursome 4&3, while the pairings of Ludvig Aberg & Matt Fitzpatrick and Rory McIlroy & Tommy Fleetwood eased to comprehensive wins in their matches against Scottie Scheffler & Russell Henley and Collin Morikawa & Harris English respectively."
"It still represented a disastrous opening session for the Americans, marking the first time since 2004 that Europe had won the opening session of the Ryder Cup on American soil. It also marked the first time ever that Europe won each of the first three matches of the tournament while playing as the away team. The manner of the three European victories will also be a cause for concern for USA captain Keegan Bradley, with Europe clinching comprehensive victories against high-profile American pairings."
