1651 Watson told Sky Sports: "When you hear the cheers, it gets to you. We made so many putts today and that kept us in it. We have got to play good tomorrow."

1638 'Moliwood' complete a trouncing of Woods and Dechambeau, winning 5&4. They become the first European pair to win four matches in four sessions at a single Ryder Cup. Rose and Stenson stay one up with two to play, but Spieth and Thomas are four ahead against McIlroy and Poulter.

1626 Stenson shows nerves of steel over an eight-foot putt to prevent the USA drawing level. Outstanding. Simpson produces a fine shot to leave Watson with an eagle opportunity on the 14th. The 39-year-old grabs the chance with both hands to move four holes up on Garcia and Noren.

1620 The first game of the afternoon is getting tense as we reach the business end. Rose and Stenson are now only one up with three to go after the Englishman missed from eight foot.

1500 Noren's putt does not fall in, handing Watson and Simpson a three-hole advantage. McIlroy has struggled since his little tantrum, carding a triple-bogey, par, and now bogey as Spieth and Thomas move one up. What a comeback! As it stands, its two apiece in this session.

1455 Woods and Dechambeau have no answers to Fleetwood and Molinari. The European duo are three up after six. No European pairing have ever won their first four matches together. That could be about to change.

1430 After an impressive approach from Stenson, Rose narrowly misses the chance to move one ahead, seven holes in against Johnson and Koepka.

1420 McIlroy, perhaps too vocal, then sends his tee shot way right on the next. Noren and Garcia win the fifth to move one behind Watson and Simpson.

1414 McIlroy is fired up! We have seen that before. The Northern Irishman holes from six foot for a half on the third and turns to the crowd with plenty of verbals and hand action.

1405 Fleetwood is not missing, converting another putt to leave him and Molinari two ahead. Watson and Simpson are two up on Garcia and Noren, though.

1332 There is just no stopping Francesco Molinari and Tommy Fleetwood. The Italian holes a putt which wins the first hole against Tiger Woods and Bryson DeChambeau.

1330 Some players fancy a swim on the second hole this afternoon! Watson fires into the drink and, somehow, Noren replicates his opponent. Simpson does the same moments later. The radars are off! Mistakes are creeping in.

1316 The USA are on the march! Stenson and Rose fail to recover as Johnson and Koepka take the opening hole, while Bubba Watson and Webb Simpson are also one up over Sergio Garcia and Alex Noren.

1310 Thomas told Sky Sports: "We need to get closer, this session is huge. It is so easy to look at the scoreboard, but we are not at the halfway point of this golf tournament. Things have not gone our way. Hopefully this will turn the momentum around."

1300 A nervy moment for Stenson there as he almost finds the drink on the opening hole! Rose comes to his rescue with a fine chip onto the green. Are nerves setting in?

1255 USA stop the rot with victory in the final match of the morning fourballs. Thomas produces another fine putt to secure him and Spieth a 2&1 win over Poulter and Rahm. Europe lead 8-4. A big afternoon awaits!

1240 Thomas shows nerves of steel to hole a crucial putt and keep the USA one up heading to the 17th hole.

1235 Fleetwood told Sky Sports: "We just started riding the wave on the back nine when Fran was playing great. It is just incredible the feelings, the highs and lows you feel. We go again this afternoon, that is what we are here for. There is not 14 and a half points on the board yet."

1225 The Saturday foursomes have been announced and the big news is Phil Mickelson misses out. Fleetwood and Molinari are partnered once more against Tiger and Bryson DeChambeau.

1206 Sergio Garcia hailed Le Golf National's atmosphere as he holed the winning putt to secure Europe's sixth successive match win. He told Sky Sports: "It was amazing. I think we played great all day. Obviously they started coming hard at us the last few holes, a couple little mistakes here and there, but we knew that we just had to keep giving ourselves chances."

1201 Reed, who gave the 'shush' sign earlier, finds the water at the 15th as Molinari sticks it in the heart of the green. A European record is on the horizon.

1129 Casey rattles in his sixth birdie of the day as the 41-year-old and Tyrrell Hatton move three up with four holes left.
