FLEETWOOD SMACKERS!

Mcllroy and Tommy give Americans the kiss-off at raucous Bethpage Black as Europe's awesome foursomes open up commanding lead

- FROM NEIL MCLEMAN AT BETHPAGE BLACK, NEW YORK

FLEETWOOD MAC had another Ryder Cup hit.

And Team Angry were all smiles as Europe's star players continued to shine in the sun on Long Island - and the biggest opposition came from the hostile American crowd.

Tommy Fleetwood and Jon Rahm joined skipper Luke Donald in winning their first six Ryder Cup foursomes matches.

The Englishman and Rory McIlroy also remain unbeaten as a pairing after they beat Harris English and Collin Morikawa for the second time this week.

And Rahm and Tyrrell Hatton are now 5-0 together after taking out the top US pairing of Xander Schauffele and Patrick Cantlay.

Bryson DeChambeau won his first point in the opening foursomes with Cam Young but world No.1 Scottie Scheffler suffered a hat-trick of opening defeats.

By contrast, all the European big names have delivered.

Fleetwood, who went 4-0 with Francesco Molinari in the Molliwood pairing in Paris, is now 4-0 in foursomes with the Masters champions in the last two Ryder Cups.
