Ryan Fox showers support for Team Europe days before the Ryder Cup

The iconic Ryder Cup is mere days away and many prominent golfers have chosen their favorite teams for the event. Even though Ryan Fox is not from the USA or Europe, he has decided to wholly support Team Europe in their battle against Team USA.

Interestingly, Fox defeated all 12 golfers from Team Europe during his fairytale BMW PGA Championship run. However, he still supports them to get the job done at Marco Simone in Rome.

"I can certainly be very chuffed with when I beat down the stretch, you look at the leaderboard, Rory [McIlroy] is there, Tyrrell [Hatton] is there, Adam Scott is there, Rahm, beat those guys down the stretch is pretty incredible."

Fox further added via The Mirror UK:

"I'll be fully supporting them in a couple of weeks. It's pretty cool just coming down the stretch in a golf tournament with those names on the board having a chance, and it's even better sitting here having got it done."

Team Europe will be fighting an uphill battle against the favorites Team USA during the Ryder Cup. However, they will have the added advantage of playing on a familiar golf course and will fancy their chances of taking home the Ryder Cup.
