American Patrick Cantlay silenced the taunts of thousands of European fans to earn his side an emotion-charged point in their desperate battle to stay in the Ryder Cup on Saturday.
The 31-year-old was mocked relentlessly by the boisterous galleries at the Marco Simone course throughout his fourballs match alongside Wyndham Clark after reports surfaced that he refused to wear a team cap because of a pay dispute.
His team mates, caddies and vice captains celebrated his birdie putt by waving their caps at the European fans and emotions boiled over with McIlroy, who along with Fitzpatrick missed hole-saving putts, was involved in a row with Cantlay's caddie Joe LaCava, accusing him of being in his line. Europe need only four points from Sunday's 12 singles but Cantlay referenced the European comeback in 2012 at Medinah when they hit back from 10-6 down to snatch victory.
Videos posted on social media showed a furious McIlroy being bundled into a car as he continued the argument."I saw it unfold when Patrick made that putt, Joe was waving his hat," he said. "Rory politely asked Joe to move aside. He was in his line of vision. He stood there and didn't move for a while and continued to wave the hat. Rory was upset about that.
