RYDER CUP DIARY: Former Premier League chief executive Richard Scudamore joins Dragon's Den's Peter Jones in incredible Ryder Cup seats - and Rory McIlroy's dad faces the wrath of punters

Former Premier League chief executive Richard Scudamore was just one of the many enthralled spectators watching Europe press home their advantage on day two.

Scudamore, who retired from his role in English football in 2018, could be spotted on a viewing platform on the bridge behind the 9th green — one of the best seats in the house.

The position meant the players had to walk right past him on their way to the 10th tee — and even Scudamore — who is on the Ryder Cup committee — looked a little star-struck when Rory McIlroy squeezed past him.
