The hosts have got off to a solid start in the 51st Walker Cup at Lahinch Golf Club in Ireland.

Great Britain & Ireland got their noses in front in the Saturday foursomes session, winning two of the four matches and halving another to lead 2.5 to 1.5 heading into the afternoon singles session.

That will give the team a huge lift given the US began the match as strong favorites, with it featuring seven of the world's top 10 in the men's amateur game.

The pairing of Niall Shiels Donegan and Josh Hill beat the US's Josiah Gilbert and Ryder Cowan in a match that included a non-conceded putt incident.

Connor Graham and Tyler Weaver also got the better of Jay Leng Jr and Kihei Akina, with the American pair of Miles Russell and Tyler Watts beating Luke Poulter and Sam Easterbrook.

The match between Stuart Grehan and Eliot Baker and Preston Stout and Ethan Fang was halved.

With their slender advantage, the hosts will look to build even more momentum on Saturday afternoon.

The singles session begins at 2:02pm BST (9:02am ET), with eight matches in total and eight of the 10 players from each team taking part.

The first matchup sees World No. 1 Preston Stout take on Amateur Champion Stuart Grehen.
