Golf fans were left a little perplexed on Saturday morning after Team USA and Team Europe switched colors for the second day of the Ryder Cup.

In a decision that left viewers dismayed, the European team - blue on the scoreboard - wore red out on the course, while the Americans - red on the scoreboard - headed out in blue.

Golf fans were understandably frustrated at the switch-up, with one calling it 'unnecessarily complicated', and another even claiming it made the tournament 'difficult to watch'.

'It's messing with my head', a third wrote, while a fourth wrote: 'Am I missing something? The color scheme of the golf makes no sense!'

Another summed it up by, quite simply, writing: 'Utter woke nonsense'

Day two of the iconic tournament began shortly after 7am in New York, with Bryson DeChambeau once again leading out the opening group - much to the delight of the crowd.

But a strong start from the Americans - who went ahead in two of the first three matches early - was quickly flipped by the Europeans, with Rory McIlroy, Tommy Fleetwood, Jon Rahm and Tyrell Hatton all starting strong.

The teams' attire is set to change for each day of the tournament, with the Americans yet to wear red in either of the first two days.

For Friday's opening day, Keegan Bradley's players donned a predominantly blue-and-white outfit, with a red stripe across the middle of the chest as a nod to their team colors. 

Europe, meanwhile, had a baby blue polo, with a darker blue stripe around the chest - avoiding any glimpse of American red.

Europe led the tournament 5.5-2.5 after the first day, needing 14 points to retain the trophy come Sunday evening.
