The team we have is incredible, it\u2019s a young team and I think it will be around for a long time, The support we had this week has been absolutely unbelievable.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018It\u2019s been a great week for me personally but we need to go and follow boys and get them in the house and get this over and done with. I\u2019m pretty confident, I feel like we\u2019ve played the back nine pretty well this week so I have full confidence in the boys to get the job done.\u2019<\/p>\n<p><strong>For more stories like this,\u00a0check our sport page<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Follow Metro Sport for the latest news on <meta charset=\"utf-8\"><strong>Facebook,\u00a0<\/strong>Twitter\u00a0and\u00a0Instagram<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/metro.co.uk\/2023\/10\/01\/rory-mcilroy-speaks-out-on-ryder-cup-bust-up-with-us-caddie-joe-lacava-19586070\/?ico=zone-widget_home_sport\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rory McIlroy says he used his bust-up with US caddie Joe LaCava as \u2018fuel\u2019 for his victory at the Ryder Cup on Sunday.
