Justin Rose moved to put his row with Bryson DeChambeau to bed after a highly charged day of action at the 45th Ryder Cup, insisting there was no ‘disrespect’ or ‘intent’ in what he said to the American.
The 45-year-old, featuring in his seventh Ryder Cup for Team Europe, put on a masterclass alongside Tommy Fleetwood as they defeated Scottie Scheffler and DeChambeau 3&2 in an absorbing fourballs contest on Saturday.
But tempers boiled over on the 15th green as Rose took umbrage with DeChambeau – and his caddie Greg Bodine – seemingly getting in his way and obstructing his view while lining up a vital putt.
A visibly frustrated Rose made his feelings clear, directing Bodine to move off the green, before exchanging some choice words with DeChambeau once the latter had holed his own putt.
