Quick Quotes

Q. I know it was a long couple of days as you searched for your first point. What mentality did you bring to the golf course for Sunday singles?

SCOTTIE SCHEFFLER: Yeah, just to keep fighting. Battled really hard yesterday and the first day. Things just did not work out the way I anticipated, but I was proud to be able to get a point today.

It's tough; playing all five matches is a grind. Rory and I even chatted about that a little bit today. It was a grind, and I'm pretty tired, but I'm proud of the fight that our team showed. Keegan did a good job putting us in position and keeping the energy up, and the guys were motivated to come out and play. We've showed a lot of fight today, and we'll see what happens. We've still got a fighting chance.

Q. Your captain lives and dies with every shot struck out here, as you know. How much of inspirational character has he been in the entire run-up and this week at the Ryder Cup?

SCOTTIE SCHEFFLER: Keegan has been amazing. All our vice captains have been great. This has been a really special team, and it's been a lot of fun. This week did not go how I anticipated it going for myself, and I'm a little bit bummed, but these guys on this team, they picked me up when I needed it last night, and we've got a great team.

Q. Why is it so emotional for you now?

SCOTTIE SCHEFFLER: We've still got a fighting chance. It's something that means a lot to us, and like I said, I love these guys on this team. It's a special group. The fight that these guys showed today, the fight that Bryson showed today and yesterday, I mean, the way he played in our match in the afternoon was amazing, and I don't think I could have done what I did in my match today if he didn't do what he was doing in front of me. He's an emotional leader of our team and he's been great, and I'm proud to be battling with guys like that out here.
