Tommy Fleetwood and Francesco Molinari propelled Europe into a commanding position with a rare sweep of their four pairs matches to give the hosts a 10-6 lead over the United States going into the final day of the Ryder Cup. Ryder Cup rookie Fleetwood and Molinari became the first European couple to claim four points from their opening four matches, inflicting a pair of defeats on Tiger Woods in Saturday's fourballs and foursomes at Le Golf National.
They were just the second pairing to go 4-0 in team matches since 1979, joining American duo Larry Nelson and Lanny Wadkins who achieved the feat at The Greenbrier. After a 4 and 3 win over Woods and a misfiring Patrick Reed in the morning fourballs, Fleetwood and Molinari thumped the 14-time major champion and Bryson DeChambeau 5 and 4 in the foursomes.
"We were really, really good this afternoon," said Fleetwood. "We played really solid, we played really well. But yeah, about the piece of history together, it's very special." British Open champion Molinari, winless in two previous Ryder Cup appearances - in 2010 and 2012, warned the job is not yet finished for Thomas Bjorn's side ahead of Sunday's 12 singles matches.
No European player has scored five points from five in Ryder Cup history, with US trio Arnold Palmer, Gardiner Dickinson (both in 1969) and Nelson (1979) the only golfers to accomplish it.
