  1. Finally a blue point!published at 21:38 BST 28 September

    Cantlay v Aberg 2&1 (F)

    Ludvig Aberg beats Patrick Cantlay, and the relief is written all over his face.

    That's an enormous point for Luke Donald's side, who are really struggling to get over the line here as this red wave of American points just keeps on coming.

    DeChambeau A/S Fitzpatrick (17)

    Matt Fitzpatrick finds the 18th green with his second but he's left a putt of almost 40 feet.

    The only bonus for him is that Bryson is in the long stuff down the right. The American muscles his second out of all that gnarly stuff and reaches the dance floor but is outside the Englishman's ball.

  3. Burns goes uppublished at 21:36 BST 28 September

    1UP Burns v MacIntyre (12)

    It's only on the 12th but this win for Sam Burns feels big, because it could come down to this game.

    Robert MacIntyre - Europe might need you to turn this round.

    Michael: Europe turned up assuming that it was impossible to lose. Turns out that the US team is quite good even if their team strategy was not.

    Rich B: Thank God for Hovland’s half point. Looks like Europe might end up needing it!

    Mike: Bob McIntyre's match could yet be crucial!!

    1UP Scheffler v McIlroy (17)

    Rory. Uh-oh.

    Actually, he gets a break there. It was heading for the hay but bounces back off the front of the bunker and into the sand.

    Matt Fitzpatrick hit it to four feet from there yesterday.

    Cantlay v Aberg 2UP (16)

    Patrick Cantlay sticks his tee shot 12 feet away and with a great chance of getting a hole back with Ludvig Aberg 25 feet away at least.

    Better news back on the 12th for Europe as Tyrrell Hatton goes close and then sinks his putt to level his match against Collin Morikawa.

    There is enough European blue - or neutral grey - for the visitors to go home with the Ryder Cup.

    But it’s starting to get a little tense on an 18th green where the vibe is getting wilder by the minute.

    How are the nerves, lads?

    Scottie finds the middle of the 18th fairway. He is playing like Scottie now.

    2UP Henley v Lowry (14)

    Russell Henley drops another one in on 14 and goes to 2UP.

    Shane, we need you.

  11. 'Lads have to knuckle down here'published at 21:32 BST 28 September

    It doesn’t look great at the moment for Europe, but the Americans are battling so hard, they’re doing so well.

    They’ve won those two matches on the last which is just incredible golf.

    The lads have just got to knuckle down here, focus on their game and see if they can get a point across the board.

    Tommy Fleetwood can’t look. His eyes wander to the big screen and then down to the floor.

    Finally he glances up… and sees Thomas' ball drop.

    If hadn’t looked, the noise would have told him.

    Volume is maxed. Hope is not far behind.

    Thomas struts around the green, winding up the crowd like he’s a WWE wrestler celebrating a tap out, marching over to Keegan Bradley for a bone-crunching hug.

    Rory comes up short. Three inches short.

    That's a three.

    Scottie to tidy now...

    Good effort by Scottie. Very good. Perfect for pace.

    Leaves himself five feet.

  17. Schauffele defeats Rahmpublished at 21:29 BST 28 September

    Schauffele beats Rahm 4&3

    Xander Schauffele puts Jon Rahm out of his misery on the 15th. The American went four up with four to play on the 14th and takes a half to finish the job off.

    Europe are creaking.

    1UP Scheffler v McIlroy (16)

    Scottie Scheffler must come up a big slope and then it will turn left to right. It's a horrible putt for mere mortals.

    It's a 20-yard putt.

    Scheffler is Scheffler though.

    Ludvig Aberg halves the 16th and he's now guaranteed a half point against Patrick Cantlay.

    The way things are going though that won't be enough....

  20. Thomas wins it!published at 21:25 BST 28 September

    1UP Thomas v Fleetwood (F)

    Justin Thomas wins it! It was inevitable wasn't it, ans the crowd again goes absolutely ballistic as Thomas bounces around the green and a forlorn Tommy Fleetwood gives him a hug and trudges off.

    What is happening here!
