The final session of the Ryder Cup 2025 almost forced an epic turnaround before Europe defended its title by a narrow margin. Despite Team USA's heroic comeback, Team Europe posted a 15-13 win over the hosts at Bethpage Black.

On Sunday, September 28, Team Europe entered Bethpage Black with a 7-point lead. At 11.5, they needed just 2.5 points to retain the Ryder Cup trophy, and with Hovland not playing, they now needed only 2.

The Sunday singles started with Cameron Young claiming the first point against Justin Rose. Then Justin Thomas registered a 1-up win against Tommy Fleetwood. The next match between Matt Fitzpatrick and Bryson DeChambeau was tied, and Europe needed just 1.5 points.

Next up were the top two-ranked players in the world, and they played like it. The match went to the 18th hole with Scottie Scheffler 1-up against Rory McIlroy.

Ludvig Aberg earned the first full point for Europe on Sunday against Patrick Cantlay. Meanwhile, Xander Schauffele claimed a win against Jon Rahm to keep Team USA in contention.

Next up was US Open champion J.J. Spaun, who earned another win for the country against Sepp Straka. With Tyrrell Hatton halving the next match against Russell Henley, Europe became the champions.
