CHASKA, Minn. – Danny Willett was standing in the third fairway in Friday fourballs at the Ryder Cup when a fan there shouted some instruction.
“Hey Danny, hit it in the bunker!”
At the sixth tee, Americans Brandt Snedeker and Brooks Koepka waved to silence the crowd so Willett could hit his tee shot. When Willett hooked his drive into the trees, fans cheered boisterously.
Rory McIlroy heard fans cheer when his partner Andy Sullivan knocked a shot in the water at the 17th in morning foursomes.
