Justin Thomas reaction caught on camera as USA teammates suffer Ryder Cup humiliation

Justin Thomas’ shocked reaction to Ryder Cup teammates Brooks Koepka and Scottie Scheffler’s record-breaking foursomes loss to Viktor Hovland and Ludvig Aberg was caught on camera. World number one Scheffler and five-time major winner Koepka were five over par for the first three holes before crumbling to a 9&7 defeat – the largest defeat in any 18-hole match in Ryder Cup history.

Thomas was stunned when he learned of the devastating defeat. So much so, that he was seen saying to his caddy: “9&7?” in disbelief.

Aberg, 23, who only turned professional in June, described the win alongside fellow Scandanavian Hovland as “surreal”. The Team Europe duo were one over par for the first three holes before Aberg came agonizingly close to a hole-in-one on the fourth. A birdie on the fifth gave Aberg and Hovland daylight with the team five up and at that point, it was only a matter of time before Koepka and Scheffler’s defeat was confirmed.

“Today was quite surreal at times,” Aberg said. “I had to almost pinch myself a little bit.”

LIV Golf rebel Koepka, meanwhile, is in a war of words with Jon Rahm, labeling the European a “child” on Friday, with the American’s frustrations in Rome boiling over. Koepka grew frustrated with the Spaniard’s behavior after a setback on the 17th hole. “I mean, I think me and Scottie birdied, what did we say, 14, we birdied 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, and then lost by two,” Koepka said. “So yeah. I mean, I want to hit a board and pout just like Jon Rahm did. But, you know, it is what it is. Act like a child. But we’re adults. We move on.”
