Patrick Cantlay at the Ryder Cup: Rome’s Two Wins and His Bethpage Record
Cantlay finished Rome 2–2–0 and Bethpage 1–3–1. His 2023 singles win came against Justin Rose, followed by a 2025 loss to Ludvig Åberg.
Players Mentioned
Patrick Cantlay's last two Ryder Cups produced different returns: two points at Marco Simone in 2023 and 1½ at Bethpage Black in 2025. Europe won both contests.
What happened in Rome
Cantlay lost both foursomes matches alongside Xander Schauffele. On Saturday afternoon, he and Wyndham Clark beat Rory McIlroy and Matt Fitzpatrick 1 UP. Cantlay followed that with a 2&1 singles victory over Justin Rose, finishing 2–2–0. The PGA TOUR's Sunday recap gives the final record and opponent.
The week also brought reports linking his decision to play without a cap to player compensation. Cantlay denied that account and said the cap did not fit. Golf Digest's reporting includes his response and singles victory.
Five matches at Bethpage
| Session | Partner or singles opponent | Result |
|---|---|---|
| Friday foursomes | Schauffele; vs Hovland/MacIntyre | Won 2 UP |
| Friday four-ball | Burns; vs McIlroy/Lowry | Tied |
| Saturday foursomes | Schauffele; vs Rahm/Hatton | Lost 3&2 |
| Saturday four-ball | Burns; vs Hatton/Fitzpatrick | Lost 1 UP |
| Sunday singles | Ludvig Åberg | Lost 2&1 |
The PGA TOUR team results and Golf Channel's final records list Cantlay at 1–3–1. His opening-session win was his only full point at Bethpage. For the longer partnership record, see Cantlay and Schauffele's six Ryder Cup foursomes.
