Europe came storming back into the Ryder Cup with a sensational clean-sweep of the afternoon foursomes to take a 5-3 lead into Saturday's second day.
After the morning fourballs the USA had a 3-1 advantage and seemingly all the momentum as they look to retain the trophy and win on foreign soil for the first time in 25 years.
Europe's sole win in the first session came from Francesco Molinari and inspired debutant Tommy Fleetwood, who surged past a muted Patrick Reed and Tiger Woods 3&1.
With four-time major winner Rory McIlroy failing to register a single birdie as he and Thorbjorn Olesen were defeated 4&2 by Dustin Johnson and Rickie Fowler, the portents looked dangerous for Thomas Bjorn's Europeans.
But in the alternate shot format the scoreboard turned blue as all four pairings took a fierce grip on their matches - at one point holding a combined advantage of 17 up.

Captain Pick's records for Team USA... 1-8.
Not good.
Still can win with 8 points in the singles, so still a chance. But Mickelson will lose (absolutely shouldn't be on the team), so that makes it tough.
I think we'll see a straight up 6-6 split tomorrow and a Europe win.
If I were the US, I would negotiate a surrender tonight where they will concede the Cup to Europe if they all get to punch (another guy that shouldn't be playing in this) Ian Poulter in the face one time.

Pretty even in the early going this morning.
Molinari and Mickelson have just teed off in the DadBod match of the day.

Rory's bunker shot on 18 catches the lip and bounces into the water. Hey, that looked like me coming out of a fairway bunker.

US has 3.5 of the first 4 points won, but a little behind in most of the remaining matches. Need some comebacks. Not looking very likely here.

Yeah, he's gotta be one of the best dudes on Tour. Class act, great Ryder Cup debut.
At the other end, Poulter just took a 1 up lead on Johnson. Honestly, Dustin, please punch that muppet-faced, visor-wearing pussy in the face.
