Rory McIlroy and Patrick Reed exchange amazing putts and passionate celebrations on day three.
Rory McIlroy and Patrick Reed exchange amazing putts and passionate celebrations on day three.

Rory McIlroy holes out from 80-feet and celebrates in style, but Patrick Reed follows him in as the Ryder Cup hits fever pitch.

We have rarely seen a match of this quality in the Ryder Cup. Both players were sent out with the instruction of leading their team to the first point and they started with a bang.

Approaching the 8th, both McIlroy and Reed were four-under and they took their games to the next level.

The European talisman had an almost impossible putt for birdie from over 80-feet away but managed to find the hole with an incredible effort. His celebration was just as good as he passionately roared at the home crowd.

That looked likely to be enough to win the hole, but Reed had other ideas, holing out himself for the half.
