Shane Lowry revealed he “lost it” on the first tee at the Ryder Cup as Team Europe got off to a perfect start in Rome on Friday.Europe set down a marker early when Viktor Hovland, who was playing in the second match of the day, chipped-in for Birdie to send the crowd wild.That not only fired up his playing partner Ludvig Aberg as they went on to beat Max Homa and Brian Harman 4&3, but inspired Lowry, who was playing in the next match and watching on the big screen.
Fleetwood, who recorded a 2&1 win over Xander Schauffele and Patrick Cantlay in partnership with Rory McIlroy, said: “It was sort of nice being that last group out and seeing all the blue on the board and hearing the cheers. I think me and Rory were just very aware that we wanted to make sure we kept that momentum going.”
The team revealed they had also played some mini-competitions in practice to help sharpen their games.
