Ryan Moore clinched a thrilling US Ryder Cup triumph over Europe on Sunday at Hazeltine National, beating Lee Westwood to end a long US wait to reclaim the golden trophy in golf's greatest team competition.
With Westwood in for bogey at the 18th, Moore rolled his birdie putt to within one foot and the tap-in was conceded to seal a 1-up win and clinch a 15-10 lead for the United States.
The Americans had last won the biennial match play event in 2008 as Europe ran off three Cup victories in a row, extending their domination to eight of the last 10 meetings.
