Piers Morgan has taken aim at Team USA duo Scottie Scheffler and Brooks Koepka for their foul-mouthed language during their thumping defeat at the hands of Ludvig Aberg and Viktor Hovland. The duo suffered a record 9&7 defeat on Day Two of the Ryder Cup as matters went from bad to worse for Zach Johnson\u2019s team.<\/p>\n
Team USA made a miserable start to Day 1, failing to win a single match and handing Team Europe a 6 1\/2 \u2013 1 1\/2 lead. Johnson needed his team to bounce back this weekend to avoid being made a mockery of, though Scheffler and Koepka were unable to get Saturday off on the right foot.<\/p>\n
The pair were thumped by Team Europe\u2019s Aberg and Hovland, and the duo couldn\u2019t contain their frustration as the match panned out \u2013 with Sky Sports being forced to apologise for their language on several occasions.<\/p>\n
Morgan couldn\u2019t resist mocking Scheffler and Koepka on Saturday, writing on X (Twitter): \u201cKoepka and Scheffler have provoked more Sky Sports Golf apologies for their foul-mouthed cursing that they\u2019ve won holes.\u201d<\/p>\n

However, Hovland was understandably in brighter spirits.<\/p>\n Speaking after the match, he said: \u201cWe were meeting two strong guys \u2013 number one in the world and five-time major champion. We tried to not give them anything. We played really solid and obviously didn\u2019t meet a sharp Scottie and Brooks but we played some really nice golf today.\u201d<\/p>\n We use your sign-up to provide content in ways you’ve consented to and to improve our understanding of you.

He explained: \u201cSo far so good. I don\u2019t think we could have done better. It\u2019s nice to speak our own language, we understand each other.<\/p>\n \u201cSame humour, same culture. He doesn\u2019t miss a shot. It\u2019s easy when I\u2019m playing well and he\u2019s playing well. We\u2019re just feeding off of each other.\u201d<\/p>\n
