After a dominant two days of action, Team Europe go into the final day of the Ryder Cup needing just 2.5 points to retain the trophy and secure a fifth win on away soil.

Sitting at an 11.5-4.5 scoreline, Luke Donald's men have put Keegan Bradley's side to the sword in Bethpage Black, winning all four sessions of foursomes and four-balls.

Going into Sunday's singles, it's Europe's to lose and, in terms of their selections, it will be Cameron Young who leads out the Americans, with Justin Rose looking to win a third point from three.

The stand out match belongs to Scottie Scheffler and Rory McIlroy, who will be the fourth game out on the course. World No.1 Scheffler has lost all four of his matches this week, so will want to claim a point against Career Grand Slam winner McIlroy.

Tommy Fleetwood is the second man out against Justin Thomas, with the European player looking to secure a perfect 5-0-0 record for the week, which would be an historic feat.

The first match gets underway at 12.02pm local time (ET), with Harris English and Viktor Hovland the final game at 2.03pm. So far, Hovland is scheduled to play having withdrawn earlier with a neck injury.

Matt joined Golf Monthly in February 2021 covering weekend news, before also transitioning to equipment and testing. After freelancing for Golf Monthly and The PGA for 18 months, he was offered a full-time position at the company in October 2022 and continues to cover news and social media.

Taking up the game when he was just seven years of age, Matt made it into his county squad just a year later and continues to play the game at a high standard, with a handicap of around 2-4. To date, his best round came in 2016, where he shot a six-under-par 66 having been seven-under through nine holes. His favorite player is Rory McIlroy, despite nearly being struck by his second shot at the 17th during the 2015 BMW PGA Championship.
