Robert MacIntyre taunted his American hosts at the Valspar Championship in Florida by labelling his caddie’s bib with Europe’s Ryder Cup-winning score.<\/b><\/p>\n

MacIntyre took advantage of a quirk of the tournament that allows players to choose wording for their caddie’s bib.<\/p>\n

The Scot opted for ‘EUR 16.5-11.5 USA’ in reference to the USA’s heavy defeat by Europe<\/a> in Rome in September.<\/p>\n

Among mixed responses on social media, Ryder Cup Europe posted on X: “He’s only gone and done it. We approve.”<\/p>\n

Their USA counterparts responded: “Never too soon to start thinking about Bethpage in 2025.” <\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the official PGA Tour account asked: “Too soon?”<\/p>\n

MacIntyre, 27, was unbeaten with two and a half points at the Marco Simone Country Club as Luke Donald’s side won back the Ryder Cup, but he did not pair up with English caddie Mike Burrows until a month later.<\/p>\n

Making his ninth appearance on the PGA Tour this season, MacIntyre has missed the cut in half of his previous events.<\/p>\n

A one-under-par opening round at the Valspar Championship left him six off the lead set by America’s Kevin Streelman.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
