The United States secured the 2021 Ryder Cup on Sunday after rookie Collin Morikawa secured the final half point to get to a 19-9 victory, which is the largest margin of victory in Ryder Cup history since the 28-point format came about. Morikawa commented on the win by saying, It was huge. I don’t think it’s just a win. I think this is a dominant win.” Morikawa deserves to celebrate the last weekend and now celebrate being number three on the leaderboard.
