RYDER CUP FOURBALLS TEE TIMES: The Ryder Cup 2018 gets underway with the traditional fourballs on Friday morning, with Tiger Woods, Rory McIlroy and Dustin Johnson in action.
The Ryder Cup returns to our screens this weekend as the USA and Europe do battle once again.
The USA have not won the competition on European soil since they were victorious at The Belfry back in 1993.
And Jim Furyk’s men will be eager to put that right as they take on Thomas Bjorn and co. at Le Golf National, near Paris.
The respective captains named their fourballs pairings on Thursday and Express Sport has everything you need to know for that Ryder Cup session.
