Team Europe made a strategic substitution in the Ryder Cup as Tyrrell Hatton replaced Viktor Hovland due to a neck injury. Hatton teamed up with Matt Fitzpatrick for a key fourballs match after Europe’s strong showing in the morning foursomes session on Saturday.
Following an impressive performance against Team USA, Luke Donald’s team maintained their momentum. Initially planning for Hovland to partner with Fitzpatrick in the final session against Keegan Bradley’s duo of Sam Burns and Patrick Cantlay, the unexpected withdrawal of the Norwegian player led to Hatton stepping in.
Hatton, coming off a successful foursomes win with Jon Rahm earlier in the day, was called upon by Donald to fill the void. The situation remains fluid, and updates will be provided as new information emerges.
