with good reason, as they won three of the four morning matches. dustinjohnson showing the way. commentator: look at this. for europe it was another chastening experience. the spanish duo ofjohn rahm and sergio garcia once again their only winners. from 9 3 down, was there any way back for them? well, the afternoon brought something of a fight back. rahm and garcia continuing their prolific partnership, with another victory before shane lowry sealed a dramatic win on the final hole. europe s spirit was plain to see. but the us held their nerve. victory forjohnson and the superb collin morikawa against ian poulter and rory mcilroy before scottie scheffler and bryson dechambeau closed out with another point. another dominant day for the us and it leaves victory now tantalisingly close. and so the us need just 3.5 points of the 12 points on offer in the singles matches to regain the ryder cup. as for europe, well, they need a sporting miracle.
