Inside look at every one of Tiger Woods’ 82 PGA Tour victories

GUYANCOURT, France – Here are the match recaps for the Sundays Singles at the 2018 Ryder Cup. Europe entered the final day at Le Golf National with a 10-6 lead and needed 4.5 points out of a possible 12 to reclaim the Cup. SUNDAY SINGLES Match 1: Justin Thomas, USA def. Rory McIlroy, Europe, 1 up Holes won: USA 5, Europe 4 Holes led: USA 2, Europe 8 Recap: Thomas finished off the best week of the American players, winning for the fourth time in five matches in his first Ryder Cup appearance. The match was all square going to the final hole. After Thomas found the fairway with his tee shot, McIlroy found trouble, with his tee ball half-buried near the lip of the fairway bunker. Aiming sideways, he tried to blast out, but the ball dribbled back into the bunker. His third shot then hit the lip of the bunker and dribbled into the water across the fairway. After Thomas found the green with his second shot, McIlroy conceded the hole and the match. Before his trouble at the 18th, McIlroy had one birdie and 16 pars, but was undone by missing several makeable putts. Quote: “It was an extremely unfitting way for that match to end. I’m very happy to get the point for our team, but I didn’t want to get it like I that. I’m sure it helps a little bit I hit a great drive. I told Rory I’ve looked up to him for a long time, and I’ve always respected the way he’s treated me, so it was pretty cool getting thrown out there in the first match and playing against himâ€� – Justin Thomas Match 2: Brooks Koepka, USA and Paul Casey, Europe, halved Holes won: USA 4, Europe 4 Holes led: USA 9, Europe 2 Recap: Consecutive birdies on the back nine gave Koepka the lead, but Casey fought back with a birdie on the 17th hole to earn the half-point. Koepka managed to get up-and-down from the greenside bunker at 18 while Casey missed a 20-foot birdie putt that would’ve won the hole. Koepka played bogey-free golf with four birdies. Quote: “It was a fun match. Paul played pretty well. It was probably the way it should’ve finishedâ€� – Brooks Koepka … “Massive respect for Brooks. … It was a great classic match.â€� – Paul Casey

ATLANTA – Brooks Koepka has withdrawn from the TOUR Championship with a left wrist injury. Koepka was 3 over par on the day and 1 under for the tournament when he withdrew after a par at the 12th hole. Video showed him releasing the club and shaking out his left arm after hitting his tee shot at the par-3 11th hole, and buckling over, his left arm on his leg, after hitting a fairway bunker shot. An eight-time PGA TOUR winner, including four major championship titles, Koepka won the Waste Management Phoenix Open for the second time earlier this season and came to Atlanta looking to move up from 20th in the FedExCup. He is one of the six players to qualify on points to play on U.S. Ryder Cup Captain Steve Stricker’s team that will take on the Europeans at Whistling Straits in three weeks. Koepka will receive the prize money for finishing 30th in the 30-man field at East Lake.
