The US skipper could be the one with his hands on the trophy come Sunday nightIT is a well-worn cliché that there’s no place like home, and in a sporting context home comforts are rarely more enjoyable than in a Ryder Cup. And when the home team are backed by a raucous New York crowd, that advantage can only be ramped up a notch or two. Amidst the jubilant celebrations that followed, Rory McIlroy pointed out that the biggest challenge in the modern game is to go and win an away Ryder Cup, before declaring “that’s what we’re going to do at Bethpage”. AK Bets now go a best-priced 9/5 about an away win, with the US at 8/11 with BetMGM.
