Scheffler's no-show a rare and ominous sign for USA

Scheffler became just the second American player to compete in each of the first three sessions of a Ryder Cup and lose every match (Xander Schauffele did that in 2023).

The best golfer in the world stood on the 18th fairway with a wedge in his hand and watched his ball miss the green that he absolutely had to hit. 

It was a shockingly poor shot at the worst time. The match – and in all likelihood the Ryder Cup – was lost in the balance.
