Team USA has not secured a Ryder Cup title on European soil since 1993. They lost 16.5-11.5 to Team Europe in Rome this year. Since several American players did not participate in professional golf, unlike the European players, it was a major point of concern for the team.

The significant defeat in the foursome format was also a huge setback for the team. Though top players like Brooks Koepka, Justin Thomas, and Jordan Spieth were on the field, they could not get the momentum going and seemed inconsistent.

The selection of members from the captain Zach Johnson, which did not include some important players, also proved to be a key aspect. Players who recently performed well in the LIV Golf tournaments were left behind, to the surprise of many.

It was clear that Team Europe was well prepared, while there was no concrete explanation of what went wrong for Team USA.

Many golf enthusiasts and motorsport fans enjoyed the lighthearted banter by Lando Norris and appreciated the good humor.
