For the most part, the US newspapers gave Europe credit for their comprehensive victory in Rome as they regained the title
For triumphant European golf fans, the galling thing about America’s relationship with the Ryder Cup is that much of the US simply does not care about the tournament. On Sunday most sport fans in the States were discussing Taylor Swift’s appearance at an NFL game, the final day of the MLB regular season or Jrue Holiday’s trade to the Boston Celtics.
But that’s not to say that no one cares. And, for the most part, the US press gave Europe credit for a comprehensive victory. “Europe’s Ryder Cup triumph was down to meticulous planning, clever leadership and a strategy of drawing on the competition’s history,” wrote Tom Hamilton and Mark Schlabach of ESPN. They also complimented Europe captain Luke Donald and his vice-captain, Edoardo Molinari.
