Paul Casey has been behind Brooks Koepka since the fifth, but he has a birdie chance on nine from eight feet and his accuracy doesn't fail him.

Back to all-square.

Henrik Stenson and Bubba Watson are striding down the first fairway in match 11.

Only two rookies Alex Noren and Bryson DeChambeau are still back in the hutch.

Pump it straight into my veins Thorbjorn.

A delicious second-shot approach on the par-four fourth, hopping up to the flag, almost scoring a direct hit, instead coming to a stop two feet away.

Pressure on Jordan Spieth.

Justin Thomas keeps giving himself opportunities, and despite narrowly missing one on the previous hole, he ain't messing here.

About 12 feet away on the 10th, his putt slows up but it drops and he bangs his fist down in elation. Thomas is playing very nicely here, and Rory might have his work cut out to stay in touch.

Tiger Woods came under pressure from Jon Rahm on the seventh, seeing the Spaniard come close to burying his long-range putt to take the hole.

He gets away with a half by necking his own five-footer. A heist that, but they all count.

Webb Simpson's second shot on the seventh is a pearl, biting into the green and stunning six feet short.

Justin Rose has been wayward off the tee, almost rescued himself with a putt attempt that flirted with going down the drain from 35 feet.

But it rolls an inch wide and he has to admit defeat on that one.

Simpson two up.

Maybe a slight misread perhaps from Tommy Fleetwood on the fifth. For me, he pushed at it a little and it was maybe a little straighter. He'll dust himself down on the walk to the sixth tee where there is a driveable par four.

Dustin Johnson struggles with a 15-footer on the fourth, leaving Ian Poulter a 10-footer for birdie. It's uphill, looks good and drops.

Poulter gives the crowd a roar, but it's a mini one. He knows it's a long day ahead. He has a two-hole lead after four. Nice start.

Once you’re through the first, the fifth is the next big grandstand and mass gathering of spectators.

There’s a right mix of fans here - American, English, French... and lots of Spanish as Jon Rahm came through, but there’s a even a Canadian flag, not sure who they’re following?!

The whole place went up as Rahm holed his putt after earlier finding the bunker, the Americans thought Tiger had it. Rahm puffed his cheeks out as he headed off to the sixth. Relief for the Spaniard.

Looks like the final-day nerves are getting to fans from both sides of the Atlantic... it’s tense out here at Le Golf National. But when you gotta go, you gotta go.

A minor earthquake could strike the Paris outskirts and Jordan Spieth's eyebrows might rise a milimetre. Perhaps.

The American pulls himself back level against Denmark's Thornbjorn Olesen with a birdie on the par-five third.

Tommy Fleetwood suffering a mixed day so far. He watches a downhill six footer slide left of the hole for bogey and Tony Finau is one up.

Phil Mickelson is 14 feet from the hole on the first, and his putt lips out, gifting Francesco Molinari the lead with a par.

Could be a long day for 'ol Leftie...

Every panto needs a villain. Every drama needs a hero.

Depending on who you are backing, Patrick Reed fills both roles at the Ryder Cup.

The American, always quick to jibe the European fans, is up against rookie Tyrrell Hatton.

They are off down the first.

Justin Thomas's putt from 15 feet on the ninth is right on line, it'll give him the hole, but it loses gas and pulls up inches short.

Rory stays one up and they are onto the back nine.

Rickie Fowler with an absolute eyesore of a putt, smearing wide with a close-range par shot.

That is easy peas for Sergio Garcia, who goes two up after two.

He will be eyeing up the pick of the barstools in the 19th at this rate.

Webb Simpson drills in from 15 feet to turn what seemed a chance for Rose to move up the scoreboard, into a must-get to avoid slipping south.

Rose is up to the task though.

He walks to the seventh tee one hole adrift.

Onto the ninth and Rory McIlroy clips his third into the bunker on this par-five, fresh from Justin Thomas's winning hole on the eighth.

Thomas' third shot fares much better, and the American has a 15 footer for birdie.
