Ryder Cup celebrations for Team Europe in New York after beating the U.S. Team at Bethpage Black appear to have gone on long into the night after their historic win
Team Europe are said to have racked up a £230,000 bar bill while celebrating their Ryder Cup victory. The players, support staff and their families reportedly spent Sunday night marking their achievement in New York.
They sprayed plenty of champagne on the Bethpage Black golf course as the celebrations got underway after beating the U.S. team, and they seemingly drank plenty more as the evening went on. Footage of the group on the bus back from Bethpage also showed several of the players with beverages in hand as they all chanted along to songs played over the speakers.
Shane Lowry acknowledged on social media yesterday that “I might have a hangover.” That offered an insight into how the night went
The Sun now claims that they spent over £116,000 on 120 bottles of Moët & Chandon Brut Imperial champagne, at £967 each. Another £74,000 is said to have gone on 60 bottles of Moët MCIII and the same amount of Moët Rose Champagne..

A further £18,000 reportedly went on Belvedere Vodka, and then more than £22,000 on ten bottles of limited-edition Hennessy 250th Anniversary cognac. Reserved for the players was the offer of a special Hennessy Richard Lunar New Year 2025 cognac, which retails for just under £15,000.
During their post-session press conference, the players discussed who would be the leader in strokes gained, and there was a unanimous winner. “Sepp [Straka],” Tyrrell Hatton said first. “Sepp will stay undefeated.”
The Austrian then responded: “I don’t know, in Rome I was leaving for the airport and I still saw Tyrrell.” Lowry then clarified: “People will think it’s me, but I’ll be gone early.” Hatton reiterated: “Sepp, hands down.”
Luke Donald added, “We’ll have some fun.” By then, Rory McIlroy was pointing towards Justin Rose as Lowry exclaimed, “Rosey, Rosey.” McIlroy then added, “Dark horse in the back right!”
In response, Rose got up out of his seat and looked behind himself with an incredulous look on his face, drawing a chorus of laughter. After sitting back down, the Ryder Cup veteran acknowledged: “I got a bit scared of myself after 2018.”
Lowry delivered the crucial putt that secured the Ryder Cup on Sunday. Speaking about the abuse European players received on the course, he admitted: “Yes, it was out of hand in the end over the week. Yesterday was pretty tame for me in the end, but two days with Rory, it is something we’ll probably sit down and laugh about this week.”
