SAINT-QUENTIN-EN-YVELINES, FRANCE—Francesco Molinari and Tommy Fleetwood walked down the fairway after delivering another big point in the Ryder Cup, side by side with their arms around each other’s shoulder. Here came “Moliwood” at Le Golf National, the latest Ryder Cup sensation and the first European tandem to win all four matches since the current format began in 1979. Tommy Fleetwood, left, and Francesco Molinari became the first European golfers to team up and go 4-0 in fourballs and foursomes at one Ryder Cup. It was the second time in as many Ryder Cups in Europe that Mickelson, who holds the Ryder Cup record with 12 appearances, did not play on Saturday. That wasn’t enough to contend against “Moliwood.” The fourballs match was all square until Molinari ran off three straight birdies.
