Donald is Ryde-ing the wave of history
Western Mail
|September 30, 2025
HISTORY-MAKING Ryder Cup captain Luke Donald endured the “most stressful 12 hours” of his life after Europe narrowly fought off a United States comeback.
-
Victory looked a formality after a stunning opening two days at Bethpage Black saw them take a record-breaking 11.5-4.5 into Sunday’s singles.
When Viktor Hovland pulled out of his match with Harris English because of a neck injury and both sides were awarded half a point, Donald’s men needed just two points from the 11 remaining matches.
They were hunting victory by a record margin, but were instead facing the prospect of a record comeback as Keegan Bradley's side roared back into contention.
