An outpouring of patriotism was on full display at the 2021 Ryder Cup.
The golfing competition trades off between locations in Europe and the United States.
Golf fans loudly sang the national anthem before teed off at Whistling Straits in Wisconsin.
Videos capturing the moment quickly went viral.
Reporter Hannah Hilyard said, “USA fans made sure the national anthem was loud and proud before the first tee shots. Ryder Cup in Wisconsin is underway.”

In recent years, famous athletes have often used their sporting arenas as a platform to push their left-wing political agendas.
For example, U.S. Olympic athlete Gwen Berry turned away from the American flag while the anthem played during an Olympic-qualifying meet.
Berry failed to medal and make the podium so she was unable to protest any further.
All players on the U.S. women’s soccer team kneeled for the national anthem.
More from Daily Wire:
The United States Women’s Soccer team has long been at the forefront of the social justice movement. Ever since Colin Kaepernick began taking a knee before NFL games, Megan Rapinoe and the USWNT have been vocal about what they see as injustices in America as well as their support of the Black Lives Matter movement.
Their repeated decision to kneel as a form of protest has angered much of America. So much so that many Americans were actively rooting against the team as they attempted to win the gold medal at the Tokyo Olympic Games.
Their loss in the semifinals to Canada was treated with borderline joy, with many blasting the team for kneeling before their first game of group play against Team Sweden in Tokyo.
President Joe Biden, who has supported athletes who protest the anthem, as well as restrictive COVID-19 protocols, has received pushback from college football fans this season. Spontaneous chants of “F*** Joe Biden” have broken out across multiple college football games. The chant is also bleeding over to baseball fans, as well. As Outkick reported earlier this month:
Fans chanting “F–k Joe Biden” at stadiums from Tennessee to Alabama to Oxford, Mississippi is quickly becoming the battle cry for football fans across the country as the citizens of this country continue to show disobedience to the great [Emperor] and his presidency.
The big news this week with the “F–k Joe Biden” chant movement is that it has spread from college football and into the baseball community, where New Yorkers chanted “F–k Joe Biden” during Fox Sports’ weekend coverage of the Subway Series. Fans could be heard sending a message to Biden as ARod and Big Papi dissected the Yankees-Mets game.
