US have Europe in dire straits in quest to reclaim Ryder CupAmerican Collin Morikawa tees off before an impressive crowd at Whistling Straits in the first session of the 43rd Ryder CupKOHLER (UNITED STATES) - The United States flexed their muscle at wind-whipped Whistling Straits Friday, dominating Europe 6-2 to launch their quest to regain the Ryder Cup. It marked the first time in six Ryder Cup appearances that Northern Ireland star McIlroy lost two matches in a single day. “I love pressure, I think you have to in Ryder Cup situations,” Finau said. But Europe, winners of nine of the last 12 editions of the biennial match play event, face a tall order in trying to claw back in hostile territory. "There's obviously still 20 points to play for," Europe captain Padraig Harrington said.
