Collin Morikawa admitted yesterday that rowdy US fans crossed a line at the Ryder Cup but said he was not to blame despite calling for "absolute chaos".

The two-time major winner said on the eve of last month's tournament that he was looking for home fans to pump up the volume and "go crazy" at Bethpage Black in New York.

Europe won after three days of fierce competition which saw American fans barrack European players relentlessly and at one stage hurl beer at Rory Mcllroy's wife Erica.

Morikawa told reporters in Japan, where he plays this week's Baycurrent Classic on the US PGA Tour, that his comments had been taken "a little out of context".

"Ryder Cups are meant to have a lot of energy and I think me saying the word 'chaos, I didn't mean for them to be rude," said the 28-year-old.

"That's not on me, I believe, to take credit for people being rude."
