"I love being part of this team. I love my team-mates and I should have done more for them," McIlroy said.
"I am glad I got a point on the board for Europe but I just can't wait to get another shot at this.
"I have never really cried or got emotional over what I've done as an individual. I've said naive and stupid things in the past but this is by far the biggest tournament that we have in golf.
"You look at the crowds. You look at what it means, it's the best. I can't wait to be a part of many, many more Ryder Cups and be team-mates with some of these great guys and try to win many more."
Spiranac has more followers on Instagram than Tiger Woods.
She has also played golf with McIlroy before in a celebrity pro-am.
