Is Luke Donald planning to make history? The Team Europe captain has had a massive influence on the squad’s success in Rome and New York over the last 4 years. He turned the squad into a remarkable unit that has each other’s backs and focuses on what’s best for the team. This has helped Rory McIlroy & Co. write their names in the history books in 2025. But will Donald also create a bit of history of his own in 2027?
Hours after the triumph at Bethpage, Luke joined Sky Sports for an exclusive interview to discuss Team Europe’s win in New York. During the conversation, the reporter asked him one question everyone wants to know the answer to: Will he be leading the squad at Adare Manor? Unlike the post-win response at Bethpage, Donald had a lot more to say this time around. But did he confirm his role in 2027?

And having only won the Ryder Cup less than 24 hours ago, they certainly have a lot more to celebrate before getting back to work.
