Read something this morning, and I'm not sure if I misunderstood, but did a couple of American players down a beer on the first tee?

18.5-9.5, so the US look set to beat that and are on course to score 20 points to 8.

Just seen that interview of his. He’s a complete wreck. He’d do well to take some time off and try and reset a bit. He’s always been fragile under pressure but you’d have to worry for him when you see an interview like that.

With only a handful of European fans able to travel to Whistling Straits due to coronavirus restrictions, the atmosphere was even more one-sided than usual, with the visiting players booed when introduced on the first tee and subject to a chorus of inane heckling throughout the week.

"I didn't think it was that bad until I asked my wife what it was like for her, and they got dog's abuse going around as well," Lowry added. "It's not very nice for them to have to listen to it, but that's a small percentage of the crowd.

"I finished my match on 16 on Sunday and I was walking back down to follow the other groups and I got a huge ovation off the crowd and in the grandstand on 16, that was pretty cool. And I thought I got on well with the crowd last week as best I could.

"They are obviously a home crowd and they are going to be a partisan crowd. Some of the stuff is not very nice. But look, that's just the way it is. Some people are idiots, especially when they drink.

"Nobody turns into a genius with drinking, and that's what they were doing last week. Especially if you were out in the afternoon matches, it was loud.
