Rory McIlroy Ryder Cup record over the years &#8211; which will also highlight which format this year&#8217;s Masters winner has done best in.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Rory McIlroy Ryder Cup Record As World Number Two Makes Eighth Appearance\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Rory McIlroy will head into a Ryder Cup for the first time as a Masters champion &#8211; after finally getting measured up for a green jacket at Augusta earlier this season.<\/p>\n<p>So, with this monkey off his back &#8211; can we expect a more relaxed McIlroy to run the show for the European team once again?<\/p>\n<p>Being the lowest-ranked European player, then there is always a lot of pressure put on the world number two player &#8211; but with seven past Ryder Cups, McIlroy (36) has a bundle of experience.<\/p>\n<p>This year the event will be staged on US soil and with the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportscasting.com\/uk\/news\/europe-last-ryder-cup-win-in-america\/\">last Europe Ryder Cup win in America<\/a> (2021) going to the home nation, Rory McIlroy, captain Luke Donald and the European team know how hard it is to win on their travels.<\/p>\n<p>The Ryder Cup odds also back this up with the golf betting sites making USA favourites at 4\/6 to win, with Europe 6\/4 and the tie priced at 12\/1.<\/p>\n<p>However, the away team will look to the Rory McIlroy Ryder Cup record and gain hope &#8211; with the Northern Irish big-hitter having won 18 points over the years and only lost two of the seven Ryder Cups he&#8217;s contested.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Rory McIlroy Ryder Cup Record
