Team Europe wasn't giving up the fight heading into Day 2 of the 2021 Ryder Cup, but after Team USA went 3-1 in the foursomes morning round and split the four afternoon fourball matches, the defending champs' deficit was 11-5 heading into Sunday's singles play. The Americans need just 3.5 more points to capture the Ryder Cup trophy. Europe needs nine points to retain it.
Dustin Johnson stayed undefeated for Team USA after winning both his matches Saturday with partner Collin Morikawa. Even though he is the oldest American player, the 37-year-old Johnson has played in all four rounds this weekend. Jon Rahm and Viktor Hovland have done the same for Europe.
