The secret of Europe’s Ryder Cup perfection? 5 words tell the story

Ryder Cup loses are difficult to stomach. The event is taken so big and means so much that a loss often leads to a two-year mission of finding facts to wrong and ensure that the ship is floating in the right direction.

For Americans, you think that the strength of tasks after the 2014 debut in Gleneagles, or by tabulating KEEGAN BRADLEY to be captain for the 2025 Ryder Cup after it was left out of the American loser team in 2023. For Europeans, a historic loss in 2021 on Whistling Straits was supposed to be the beginning of a team. for the front future. On the contrary, Europeans responded with an extraordinary victory in 2023 that was not as close as it showed 16.5-11.5 and, on Sunday, a historic 15-13 victory on the road in Bethpage Black. Europe has won 11 of Ryder’s last 15 glasses and four times on American soil since the last time the US won in Europe.

This last loss will undoubtedly send Americans seeking response. There are a number of reasons why the US crashed into Bethpage. They set the course incorrectly, for which Bradley took the ownership of Sunday after loss. Where Europe placed courses in Paris and Rome to highlight the strengths of its list and disadvantaged the US, the Americans neutralized a well -known Bethpage black song.

AMERICAS Also failed in the data test in Bethpage. As Europe sent optimal fourth and written mathematical pairs on their weak links in four balls with their stars, Americans twice violated the less optimal quadrilateral of Collin Morikawa and Harris English; Rory Mcilroy And Tommy Fleetwood evaporated them both days. On Friday, the US had Russell Henley to be divided into strange holes and Scottie Scheffler at Eve, despite the data showing the opposite was optimal. It raised Scheffler and Henley caddies by suggesting the difference that it would make the plan for Saturday.

Communication and attention to details Everyone involved in Team Europe also plays a massive role in the benefit of as much as possible by everyone in the team. Captain Luke Donald, his vice presidents, the DP World Tour and support staff leave no stone intact-including the quality of the player hotel bed-in Europe’s Ryder Cup, which allows the best players in the world to play freely with total purchases and confidence in the process.

All this is part of the success of the Europe’s Ryder Cup. And yet, a quote from Sunday’s Bethpage celebration can tell a more summary story.

After going 2-1-0 to Bethpage as he ended up third in strokes: Total and second in the week’s setting, Justin Rose was asked how he explains his prevailing green performance in Rome in 2023 and this week in New York. Rose, who is 45, offered something that highlights the connection the European team has built between each other and generations.

“I would like to know. I would like to be a little more selfish and know that 25 weeks a year,” Rose said. “But do you know what I mean? I feel like the power of this, the power of the group, who knows what it is, that ability to close, the ability to want it a little more.

“The answer to your question is that I do not know except the symbol and boys, honestly. That’s all that matters, honestly, symbol and boys.”

Symbol and boys.

After the victory, Mcilroy noted that the entire European operation began to focus on how they would win in Bethpage the day after their victory in Rome. This is about 700 days past by concluding a plan for three days – a plan for the course, a plan for preparation, a plan for motivation and inspiration, and a plan for healing. Europe had a plan to all

Part of the plan focused on European teams that have won the road before. Writing every practical day was a phone call again for one of those victories, peaked with the Violet that Europeans wore in 2012 in their victory in Medinah. The European Social Team released a video looking for 37 players who have won a Ryder Away cup. Even Sunday’s uniforms had historical significance as the four straps symbolized the four teams they had won on American soil.

A deep desire to become Fifth team to do that Flows through every member of the team of Europe.

Europeans brought 11 of the 12 players from that team in Rome, all spent two years pressing the team and making history in Bethpage. For Europeans, the beating of the Americans seems to have a significance that does not match equally because of the blue and golden concentration in its past and the desire of its current players to write the next chapter.

On Sunday, while champagne was preparing to flow, Donald was once again struck in the importance of history and becoming a part of something greater than herself.

“This is a large part of my captain is to create an environment where these people are spending the best weeks of their lives, honestly,” Donald said. “We will always remember this. We will always go down in history. We talk about all the people who came before us who paved the way for us. Now, future generations will talk about this team tonight and what they did and as they were able to overcome one of the most difficult environments in all sports.”

The US will continue to look for ways to “imitate” what Europe does that make it successful. Maybe they can find a captain like Donald who prints all the right buttons. But with five words, Rose may have shown why it will be difficult for the US to do it. Why the US will be better served by designing its own course instead of trying to copy a formula for which the ingredients are missing. Everything about Europe has to do with the collective and history of the “symbol”. From Seve to Nick Faldo to Sergio Garcia and Mcilroy, the connection of Europe to each other and their past is something that cannot be recreated or imitated. It is a galvanizing force that cannot be determined.

One who just gave a historical victory – for the symbol and boys.
