Following two rounds of foursomes on Saturday, there is now just the Sunday singles session of the Team Cup to come.

The contest features two teams of 10 - one representing Great Britain & Ireland and another Continental Europe, and it offers European Ryder Cup captain Luke Donald the chance to cast his eye on hopefuls for this year’s match at Bethpage Black.

The first three days of action, which began with a session of fourball on Friday, has been almost entirely dominated by the Great Britain & Ireland team, which is captained by Justin Rose.

The team, which lost the inaugural edition of the match in 2023 when it was named the Hero Cup, stands just two points away from gaining revenge on Continental Europe, heading into the final round with a commanding 11-4 lead.

As a result, Great Britain & Ireland players will inevitably have impressed Donald the most overall in the first three days, although there have been a few strong performances from their opponents in the opening three rounds at Abu Dhabi Golf Club.

Of the 20 players competing at the match, four have a maximum haul of three points each so far, and surprisingly given the huge gap in the scoreline, each team boasts two.

For Great Britain & Ireland, Tommy Fleetwood and Tom McKibbin have three points apiece. Fleetwood teamed up with Aaron Rai in the Friday fourball session, and the pair beat Continental Europe captain Francesco Molinari and Matteo Manassero 3&2.

Then, in the Saturday morning foursomes, Fleetwood and Rose won 2up over Molinari and Julien Guerrier, before Fleetwood joined forces with Jordan Smith in the afternoon session against the same opponents, winning 3&2.

As for McKibbin, he and Tyrrell Hatton beat Antoine Rozner and Guerrier 3&2 on Friday. McKibbin then played alongside Aaron Rai as they beat Rasmus Hojgaard and Rasmus Neergaard-Petersen 4&3 in the Saturday morning foursomes, before linking up with Matthew Jordan as the pair won 2up against Thorbjorn Olesen and Niklas Norgaard in the afternoon session.

Matthieu Pavon and Romain Langasque are the two Continental Europe players with 100% records ahead of the final round.

The pair beat Rose and Matt Wallace 3&1 in the Friday fourball session before they beat Smith and Laurie Canter 3&2 in the Saturday morning foursomes. The pair then emerged victorious against Rai and Rose 4&2 in the afternoon session.

However, bright spots were few and far between elsewhere for the Continental Europe team, with Norgaard and Olesen the only other players to register points so far - each with one.

As for Rose’s team, everyone has got off the mark in what is shaping up to be another worthwhile contest as Donald continues to formulate a plan to retain the Ryder Cup later in the year.
