    How Europe Crushed USA in Front of Their Own Crowd | Ryder Cup 2025 Revisited | Part 3

    The Bethpage crowd turned up the volume. Europe turned up the golf. Rhys and Alex revisit Saturday’s matches, the hostile atmosphere, the arguments over where crowd behaviour crossed the line, and how Europe built a commanding lead heading into Sunday.

    How Donald Out-Captained Bradley at Bethpage | RTB Golf History: 2025 Ryder Cup

    In Part 2 of our 2025 Ryder Cup Revisited series, Rhys Prytherch and Alex York revisit Friday afternoon at Bethpage Black — the point where the story stops being mainly about atmosphere and starts becoming a proper captain v captain debate. Using the four Friday afternoon matches as evidence, they look at what Luke Donald and Keegan Bradley were actually responsible for: pairing logic, preparation, role clarity, in-session adaptation, and the point where captaincy ends and players still have to hit the shots. Serious golf, unserious tone.

    How the Bethpage Black Trap Backfired | RTB Golf History: 2025 Ryder Cup | Part 1 of 4

    Bethpage Black was supposed to give Team USA the perfect start. Instead, Europe repeatedly stopped American momentum from becoming American control and finished Friday morning 3–1 ahead. Rhys and Alex revisit the opening foursomes: Bryson’s first-tee fireworks, Rahm and Hatton’s relentless escapes, Åberg and Fitzpatrick’s demolition of Scheffler and Henley, McIlroy and Fleetwood’s clinical partnership, and the final match that saved America from a clean sweep. Part 1 of our four-part series revisiting the 2025 Ryder Cup.

    How Rory McIlroy Lost the 2011 Masters | RTB Golf History

    Rory McIlroy took a four-shot lead into the final round of the 2011 Masters. Then one drive into the trees on the 10th turned a probable coronation into one of golf’s most painful collapses. In the first episode of Reading The Break, Rhys Prytherch and Alex York retrace that Sunday at Augusta: where it began to unravel, how the collapse gathered momentum and how Rory responded just ten weeks later at the U.S. Open. Reading The Break tells the stories that shaped golf — serious golf, unserious tone. Also available on Spotify and Apple Podcasts. #RoryMcIlroy #TheMasters #GolfHistory #GolfPodcast #ReadingTheBreak
