あらすじ・解説
On the eve of the 2023 Ryder Cup, we go back to the final day of the last Ryder Cup played in Europe. The 2018 competition was 10-6 in favor of the Euros heading into Sunday and play began with as good of a singles match as you'll get at the Ryder Cup. Rory McIlroy, ranked 6th in the world, faced Justin Thomas, ranked 4th in the world, in a match both teams hoped would set the tone for the rest of the day. We went back to watch that 2018 singles match and look back on Thomas' 1-up win. Here's some of what we discuss after seeing it again:
- Who was on those two teams compared to this year, including world-beater at the time Francisco Molinari.
- The setup and home course advantage Europeans are so great at.
- Was that first hole one of Justin Thomas' best-ever?
- Rory being Rory on the greens at big moments.
- Rahm vs Tiger in singles was the nail in the coffin for the US.
