Legendary NFL defensive lineman J.J. Watt attempted to do Team USA a solid Saturday amid the squad’s struggles against Team Europe in the 2025 Ryder Cup.
After Jon Rahm and Tyrrell Hatton defeated the American duo of Patrick Cantlay and Xander Schauffele in morning foursomes on Saturday, a fan on X asked Watt if he could get Rahm to take it easy on Team USA.
Watt responded with a screenshot of a text he sent Rahm, which read, “JON. SETTLE DOWN. This is getting ridiculous.”
Rahm and Hatton already have a pair of foursomes victories over two days at the 2025 Ryder Cup at the Bethpage Black Course in Farmingdale, New York, giving them a perfect 4-0 record as a team in foursomes over the past two Ryder Cups, per Sports Illustrated‘s Bob Harig.
Additionally, Rahm and Sepp Straka beat Scottie Scheffler and J.J. Spaun in afternoon four-balls on Friday, giving Rahm a perfect 3-0 record thus far at this Ryder Cup.
With three of the four Saturday morning foursomes matches over, Europe held a commanding 7.5-3.5 lead over the United States.
