foursome

The Americans led the contest 5-0 after sweeping Thursday's opening matches but the International team wiped out that deficit during Friday's alternate shot foursomes.

And Lewis sent Korda and Corpuz out first in the morning as a statement of intent, given they won both their foursomes matches in Spain.

Europe and the United States will play a mix of foursome, fourball and singles matches over three days in Virginia, with 28 points up for grabs.

Pettersen's positive spin a year on is that those Friday foursomes were "a wake-up call".

According to the National Hole-In-One-Registry the odds of two players from the same foursome acing the same hole is 17 million to 1.
