Rory McIlroy playfully teased Tommy Fleetwood after Fleetwood secured a Ryder Cup victory following his recent Tour Championship win. Before the Ryder Cup triumph at Bethpage Black, Fleetwood had triumphed in the final FedExCup playoff event, claiming his first PGA Tour title and a significant £8 million prize. During a press conference post-Ryder Cup, McIlroy humorously referenced Fleetwood’s lucrative weekend in New York while also addressing his wife’s experience at the event.

At the same press conference, McIlroy praised captain Luke Donald and his Team Europe colleagues for their response to Team USA’s strong final-day push. He commended Donald’s leadership and emphasized the collective effort that led to their victory. McIlroy expressed immense pride in the team’s accomplishment and highlighted the unity and determination displayed throughout the competition.

Despite not being present to celebrate Fleetwood’s Georgia victory, McIlroy found solace in standing alongside his teammate in New York, underscoring the camaraderie and shared sense of purpose that the Ryder Cup embodies. Reflecting on the challenges faced during the tournament, McIlroy emphasized the team’s triumph over individual performances and credited their collective effort for achieving success.

Furthermore, Sky has announced a discounted Essential TV and Sky Sports bundle offer ahead of the Ryder Cup, providing extensive live coverage of the competition. This promotion offers substantial savings and enhanced viewing experiences for fans during the event.
