Ryder Cup Day 2 LIVE: United States looking for fast start in morning foursomes

Keegan Bradley's United States Ryder Cup team are attempting to fightback on day two of the biennial contest at Bethpage Black against Luke Donald's Europe.

Team USA, led by the top-ranked Scottie Scheffler, trail Europe by three points after the day ended 2½-5½. 

Scheffler and the box office Bryson DeChambeau struggled on day one, with both failing to register a single point. 

Europe's Tommy Fleetwood, Rory McIlroy, Justin Rose, Matthew Fitzpatrick and Jon Rahm were among those to deliver inspired performances. 

Here are this morning's foursomes matches:

(All times BST)

  • DeChambeau/Young v Aberg/Fitzpatrick - 12:10
  • English/Morikawa v Fleetwood/McIlroy - 12:26
  • Cantlay/Schauffele v Hatton/Rahm - 12:42
  • Henley/Scheffler v Hovland/MacIntyre - 12:58

The afternoon fourballs will begin at 17.25pm

Schauffele leaves it short!

Cantlay/Schauffele v Hatton/Rahm 1UP (9)

Big chance for the US to level match 3 after Hatton overcooks his approach and finds the rear rough, while Cantlay clips a wedge to 10 feet.

A pitch and putt saves par for Europe, but Schauffele leaves his birdie putt short!

14:34
Great save from McIlroy

English/Morikawa v Fleetwood/McIlroy 4UP (10)

The US pair go close to pulling a hole back at the 10th after McIlroy pulled his second into the left rough.

Fleetwood does well to chip to 6 feet, and McIlroy's nerve holds once again.


 

14:32
Chance goes begging for Aberg

3UP DeChambeau/Young v Fitzpatrick/Aberg (11)

Fitzpatrick sets up a good look at birdie with a good wedge to 12 feet, while Young hacks one out of the cabbage to 30 feet.

DeChambeau coaxes his putt down the hill to gimme distance, but Aberg's putt for the win drifts right.

Henley halves the deficit in match 4

Henley/Scheffler v Hovland/MacIntyre 1UP (6)

It's a see-saw battle in the bottom match, and after Hovland misses the green with his approach, Scheffler knocks his to 7 feet.

Henley rolls in the birdie putt for the win, and Europe's lead is just 1.

14:22
Oh Jon Rahm, you can't do that!!

Cantlay/Schauffele v Hatton/Rahm 1UP (8)

Jon Rahm has already had a few "Shot of the Ryder Cup" contenders, but this one is next level.

Hatton pulls his tee shot way left at the short 8th and the ball hangs on the lip of the bunker.

Wayne Riley reckoned 30 feet would be a good result for Rahm's pitch, and he's only gone and binned it for birdie.

Schauffele's pitch from the left rough misses, and the European pair are back in front!

14:20
Mistakes galore at the 10th

3UP DeChambeau/Young v Fitzpatrick/Aberg (10)

DeChambeau hits a woeful second to the 10th and puts his partner in deep trouble, but Aberg's shot is even worse and finds the lip of the bunker.

Fitzpatrick can only hack out to 20 feet with the ball at chest height, and that's a bogey for Europe.

Young sets up a par with a neat escape, and the US are 3 up in the top match.

Fleetwood Mac stay 4 up at the turn

English/Morikawa v Fleetwood/McIlroy 4UP (9)

McIlroy has a chance to take Europe's top pairing 5 up heading to the back nine, but his 20-footer for birdie wanders across the face of the hole.

Still, 4 up after 9 holes is a decent start!

14:12
Clutch from Cantlay

Cantlay/Schauffele v Hatton/Rahm Tied (7)

Both pairs are in trouble at the 7th, but a clutch putt by Cantlay from 15 feet saves par for the US.

Hatton can't find the target from 10 feet, and this match is now all square

14:09
Hovland and MacIntyre double their lead

Henley/Scheffler v Hovland/MacIntyre 2UP (5)

It's looking better for Europe in the bottom match, and the American pair made a mess of the 5th.

They can't save par after a wayward drive from Scheffler, and they are now 2 down.

14:06
McIlroy and Fleetwood are flying

English/Morikawa v Fleetwood/McIlroy 4UP (8)

Hunter Mahan is struggling to explain why English and Morikawa are back together this morning, and you can see why he's confused.

Morikawa's tee shot to the short 8th comes up short and finds the drink, Fleetwood found the heart of the green, and McIlroy's super lag wins another hole.

14:03
Bryson strikes, Aberg follows him in

2UP DeChambeau/Young v Fitzpatrick/Aberg (9)

Scenes on the 9th green! DeChambeau bins a 15-footer for birdie after Fitzpatrick hit his second to 7 feet.

Aberg now has a putt to tie the hole, but he holds his nerve to sink it and stay 2 down.

13:57
Hatton bounces back

Cantlay/Schauffele v Hatton/Rahm 1UP (6)

Over at the 6th, Tyrrell Hatton is eyeing up a seven-footer for par. 

He needs this to tie the hole after Cantlay holed his. 

It catches just enough of the cup. 

Well done, Tyrrell.

Scheffler putt drops

Henley/Scheffler v Hovland/MacIntyre 1UP (4)

This might get Scottie Scheffler going. 

The 29-year-old drains a 17-footer to save a half at the 4th green. 

13:50
Huge cheers over at the 8th

2UP DeChambeau/Young v Fitzpatrick/Aberg (8)

Europe concede DeChambeau's birdie putt. 

Can Aberg match it with a birdie? Nope. 

The US are finding a bit of momentum. 

13:48
The Americans are finding something now

Cantlay/Schauffele v Hatton/Rahm 1UP (5)

Hole back to the US after Tyrrell Hatton hits a weak putt at the 5th.

13:43
Cam Young feeling it

1UP DeChambeau/Young v Fitzpatrick/Aberg (8*)

Cam Young has the honour at the par-3 8th. It's another beauty. That looks like Bryson will have around three or four feet for birdie. 

Fitzpatrick is posing at his tee shot. And why wouldn't he. His golf ball lands just outside of Young's. 

 

13:41
Big putt drops for Rory McIlroy

English/Morikawa v Fleetwood/McIlroy 2UP (5)

Rory McIlroy dumps his approach into the bunker over at the 5th. 

Tommy Fleetwood has his back and splashes out nicely to around eight feet. 

After watching the US clean up for par, McIlroy's putt just about catches enough of the cup to drop. 

That's huge. 

13:39
At last some red on the board

1UP DeChambeau/Young v Fitzpatrick/Aberg (7)

Both teams are scrambling for par here over at the 7th green. 

Fitzpatrick goes first and leaves it in the jaws. 

Cam Young rolls in his par putt from four feet to give the US a lead in the top match.

Short putt not conceded

Henley/Scheffler v Hovland/MacIntyre 1UP (3)

Are the mind games beginning already?

The European duo refuse to give Scottie Scheffler a three-foot putt to tie the hole over at the 3rd. 

The World No.1 has no trouble knocking it in...

 

13:32
Patrick Cantlay answers

Cantlay/Schauffele v Hatton/Rahm 2UP (4)

Lovely approach from Jon Rahm over at the 4th. 

Hatton rolls in another birdie putt. 

Cantlay responds with a birdie of his own. 

13:30
Rory McIlroy birdie

English/Morikawa v Fleetwood/McIlroy 2UP (5)

The Europeans are playing phenomenal golf right now. 

Rory McIlroy was sensational yesterday and he's hitting all the right notes for Luke Donald this morning. 

The Northern Irishman drains a 20-footer at the 5th to extend their lead. 

That's four birdies in a row.

13:25
Robert MacIntyre!

Henley/Scheffler v Hovland/MacIntyre 1UP (2)

A disastrous start from the US has just got worse. 

Robert MacIntyre drains a huge birdie putt at the 2nd to take the lead in the fourth and final match of the morning foursomes. 

Europe are now leading in three out of four matches. 

13:23
Bullet dodged

DeChambeau/Young A/S Fitzpatrick/Aberg (6)

Decent putt from Young, but it ends up about three feet past the hole. 

The US commentary team want that putt to be conceded, but Fitzpatrick and Aberg won't have it. 

Fitzpatrick eyes up his putt from seven feet... but it starts left and doesn't move. 

Chance missed. 

Bryson tidies up. 

13:18
Decent shot from Aberg

DeChambeau/Young A/S Fitzpatrick/Aberg (6*)

Over at the 6th, Matthew Fitzpatrick has hit a booming drive that catches the ridge and scoots all the way down the hill. 

Ludvig Aberg watches Bryson DeChambeau come up short. 

The Swede's approach is right over the flag. Decent chance here for Fitzpatrick.

Hatton on a role

Cantlay/Schauffele v Hatton/Rahm 2UP (3)

A fine approach at the par-3 3rd is converted by a pumped-up Tyrrell Hatton. 

Fair to say he loved that. 

Schauffele also hit a lovely tee shot. After a few shuffles, Patrick Cantlay converts to tie the hole.
