The American duo of World No. 1 golfer Scottie Scheffler and Sam Burns will take on the European pairing of Spain's Jon Rahm and England's Tyrrell Hatton in the first match of the Ryder Cup, which tees off Friday morning at Marco Simone outside Rome.
. Cantlay and Schauffele are a combined 5-0 in foursomes matches in their past three appearances in international team events, two Presidents Cup and one Ryder Cup.
Cantlay and Schauffele also set a tournament record for foursomes with a 9-under 63 at the Zurich Classic of New Orleans in April. They won that team event in 2022. McIlroy, the No. 2 golfer in the world, has been the heart and soul of the European team for the past few years. He broke down in tears during the American team's 19-9 victory at Whistling Straits in Wisconsin in September 2021 after winning only one of four potential points. It was the U.S. team's largest margin of victory in the event.
