Justin Rose Makes Feelings Clear on Bryson DeChambeau After Furious Caddie Incident

Justin Rose has made his feelings clear on Bryson DeChambeau after a furious incident occurred during their Ryder Cup fourballs match on Saturday.

Europe's Rose and Tommy Fleetwood took on the American duo of DeChambeau and Scottie Scheffler at Bethpage Black in a match that started out respectfully but turned ugly towards the end.

On the 15th hole, Europe were three holes up and looking to win the match when DeChambeau's caddie, Greg Bodine, walked into Rose's eyeline as he was preparing to take a crucial putt.

The Englishman asked Bodine to step away so he could have a full view of the hole.

DeChambeau managed to tie the hole with his putt and save the match, but clearly wasn't happy with Rose and words were exchanged between the golfers.

As they were walking towards the next hole along with Europe vice-captain Francesco Molinari, Scheffler's caddie Ted Scott furiously squared up to Molinari and began pointing and shouting at him.

Tensions had to be cooled by Molinari's former Ryder Cup partner Fleetwood and his caddie Ian Finnis, with a Sky Sports commentator describing it as 'pathetic'.

On the 16th, Justin Rose asked Scheffler/DeChambeau caddie to step back from his eyeline before sinking his putt.

Rose and DeChambeau shook hands at the end of the match, with the Europeans winning it 3&2 to add an extra point to their total.

Speaking afterwards, the Englishman was keen to avoid creating any further controversy, stating that he did not mean any 'disrespect' towards DeChambeau and Bodine.

"I was waiting to putt and the boys were obviously working on their read, going through their calculations and going through a lot of their calculations and bits and pieces," Rose recalled.

"I waited for a few seconds and then I felt like they came up again, and I questioned whether, I was like, 'It's my putt, right?' Or however I said it.

"Maybe I didn't say it as politely as I could have said it in the moment, but by no means was there any disrespect or anything like that. But obviously it was taken the wrong way.

"I don't think we should dwell on that. And I said to the boys that, if you want me to say, 'Excuse me, please', then yeah, my bad.

"I hope so [it has been put to bed]. I spoke to the boys - it should be, in my opinion. There was no intent behind it whatsoever.

"It was something that was taken in a way and it wasn't intended in a way. But obviously it was a big putt, big moment - I'm trying to control my environment as well in that scenario."

Europe won the final fourballs session 3-1 to enter the third and final day on Sunday with a 11.5 to 4.5 lead in points.

They need to win three points across the 12 singles matches to win the Ryder Cup outright, or gain 2.5 points to retain it.
