Rory McIlroy Drops Ryder Cup Message after U.S. Open Flop

Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Rory McIlroy has long been one of the most dependable names when it comes to Ryder Cup contention. And this week, he finally got what many believed he deserved. Despite a frustrating U.S. Open run where he had to face consequences for breaking the tee box at Oakmont, McIlroy's season has been anything but dull. He kicked off 2025 with a win at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am, followed by a dramatic playoff victory at THE PLAYERS Championship, where he edged out none other than J.J. Spaun, who would go on to win the U.S. Open.

(Photo by) More Getty Images But the real breakthrough came at Augusta, where McIlroy ended an 11-year major drought and completed his long-awaited career Grand Slam by winning the Masters. That win, combined with his consistent form, catapulted him to the top of the European Ryder Cup standings. And on Monday, European captain Luke Donald made it official: Rory McIlroy became the first automatic qualifier for Team Europe at the 2025 Ryder Cup at Bethpage Black. McIlroy acknowledged the news with a bold five-word message on Instagram: "I'll see you at Bethpage."

(Image Credits: @rorymcilroy on Instagram) Instagram For a player who's been under multiple microscopes lately, it was the kind of validation he needed. Since the PGA Championship, McIlroy has faced criticism for skipping media duties—something he repeated during the first two days at the U.S. Open. He also withdrew from the Memorial Tournament, a signature event hosted by Jack Nicklaus, who has mentored McIlroy over the years. Still, his Ryder Cup legacy remains untarnished. Since debuting in 2010, McIlroy has played in seven consecutive Ryder Cups, helping Europe to five wins. Now, as he prepares for his eighth straight appearance, McIlroy's message is clear: he's ready to lead again. "Winning a Ryder Cup away from home is one of the biggest challenges there is in golf," he said. "We know it's going to be tough in New York, but we're all looking forward to that challenge." Luke Donald reacts to Rory McIlroy's Ryder Cup achievement As soon as the news went viral, European team captain, Luke Donald cheered up Rory posting: "Let's go! 👏" Shane Lowry, who is one of the closest PGA Tour pros to Rory, couldn't stop himself and chimed in, commenting, "😍🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺" Justin Rose also expressed his love and respect for McIlroy as he took to X posting: "Strong first player in team@RyderCupEurope!!! 💙💛" A few days ago, Scottie Scheffler was announced as the first lock for the US Ryder Cup team captained by Keegan Bradley. With Rory and Scottie sitting at OWGR No. 2 and No. 1, respectively, the Ryder Cup storyline is writing itself. These two have set the tone for the 2025 season, and now they'll carry the weight of national colors at Bethpage Black, arguably one of golf's most intense cauldrons.

Sabalenka apologizes to Gauff for post-match comments after French Open

BERLIN (AP) — Aryna Sabalenka says she has written to Coco Gauff to apologize for the 'unprofessional' comments she made following her loss to her American rival in the final of the French Open. Speaking to Eurosport Germany, the top-ranked Sabalenka said her remarks after her 6-7 (5), 6-2, 6-4 loss to Gauff at Roland-Garros this month were a mistake. In her post-match press conference in Paris, Sabalenka had suggested that the result was more due to her own errors than to Gauff's performance. 'That was just completely unprofessional of me,' Sabalenka said. 'I let my emotions get the better of me. I absolutely regret what I said back then. You know, we all make mistakes. I'm just a human being who's still learning in life. I think we all have those days when we lose control. But what I also want to say is that I wrote to Coco afterward — not immediately, but recently.' Sabalenka hit 37 winners but finished the final with 70 unforced errors — compared to Gauff's 30. She said she wrote to Gauff to apologize and 'make sure she knew she absolutely deserved to win the tournament and that I respect her.' 'I never intended to attack her,' Sabalanka added. 'I was super emotional and not very smart at that press conference. I'm not necessarily grateful for what I did. It took me a while to go back and think about it, to approach it with open eyes, and to understand. I realized a lot about myself. Why did I lose so many finals?' Sabalenka, a three-time major champion, also lost to Gauff in the 2023 U.S. Open final , where she also won the first set. 'I kept getting so emotional,' Sabalenka added. 'So I learned a lot. Above all, one thing: I'm the one who always treats my opponents with great respect, whether I win or lose. Without that respect, I wouldn't be where I am today. So it was a tough but very valuable lesson for me.' ___ AP tennis:
