American fans bring back ‘the worst chant in the history of sport’ for Ryder Cup

Cast your minds back to the World Cup of 2014.

Remember, the USA were busy turning heads. Drawn in a group with an impressive Ghanaian team, Cristiano Ronaldo's Portugal and eventual winners Germany, few gave Jurgen Klinsmann's side a chance of reaching the knockout stages. To the surprise of many, they did - and took Belgium to extra time before eventually being knocked out in the last 16. The American fans that travelled to Brazil were rightly impressed with their team, making everyone they came into contact with well aware of their confidence in their team's ability with a certain (slightly cringeworthy) chant... This will jog your memories... https://youtu.be/2uEpcfonkt4 Over two years on from the World Cup, those that tuned in for the opening day of the Ryder Cup at Hazeltine were horrified to learn that the American spectators had rolled out the chant once again as they willed their golfers on at the first tee. https://twitter.com/rmkf/status/781842406966689792 https://twitter.com/mrcolmcrowley/status/781842271738204160 https://twitter.com/TomIrwingolf/status/781834688977567745 https://twitter.com/Jamesbomie/status/781842483273760769 https://twitter.com/TJRostance/status/781842816402153473 https://twitter.com/maarkyj/status/781846826429386753 https://twitter.com/LiamGrundy1/status/781845513486360576 Brace yourselves for plenty more of this over the weekend. Henrik Stenson and Justin Rose were first out for Europe on Friday, taking on Jordan Spieth and Patrick Reed in the first of the foursomes.
