Hello and welcome to the results of day 2 of the Ryder Cup that took place in Bethpage New York.We had two rounds of Ryder cup matches yesterday, the foursomes in the morning and the fourballs in the afternoon. America had it all to do on Saturday and it looked like Keegan Bradley got his picks correct. However Europe were just better. The hostile atmosphere spurred on the Europeans and it was another bloodbath and a record win for the Europeans in this time of the competition. It is now 11.5 - 4.5 to the Europeans. An absolute hammering. The first round of the morning were the foursomes and the Europeans won 3-1. In the afternoon it was a similar rout 3-1. Scheffler and De Chambeau were put together and they just could not better Fleetwood and Justin Rose.
