"Wow what a game to start the Ryder Cup" was my initial thoughts. Four special players in probably the toughest match to call. Spieth and Reed paired up two years when they were USA's third pairing in the morning foursomes and they took Poulter and Gallagher to pieces winning 5&4. Both players were then rested in the afternoon four balls (which in hindsight was a huge error from USA) but they paired up again on Saturday morning beating Bjorn and Kaymer 5&3. Davis Love III probably think this is his strongest pairing and would be expecting Spieth and Reed to come back with at least a half.

Rose and Stenson were a pairing that Paul McGinley (Europe's Captain in 2014) could rely on and its no surprise that Darren Clarke sticks with a tried and tested formula. Stenson has had trouble with his knee lately and everyone will be hoping he doesn't suffer a reoccurrence of that injury after pulling out of the Barclays only a few weeks ago. I'll stick my neck on the line and say Spieth and Reed take this by a narrow margin.

Phil Mickelson is the father figure of team USA but he hasn't got the best Ryder Cup record. He's lost over 50% of his games and he's paired with Rickie Fowler who yet to win a Ryder Cup game in 8 attempts. Rickie Fowler was a wild card pick and I'd say looking at his form he's rather fortunate to be here.

They face Rory McIlroy and Andy Sullivan, a pairing that I expected to see. If Rory can get his putter hot and drop a few early on in the round then this European pairing will be tough to beat. It's Andy Sullivan's Ryder Cup debut and the cheeky Englishman will hopefully get off to a winning start.

Jimmy Walker comes into the Ryder Cup in fine form and he had a decent record in 2014 winning 2½ points from a possible 5. He pairs up with the experienced Zach Johnson. You know what you're going to get with Zach, he's likely to hit plenty of fairways and plenty of greens which is perfect in foursomes. Zach hasn't had the best of seasons mainly due to him changing his clubs, but he'll let no-one down in this format.

Sergio and Martin Kaymer are the opposition. Sergio has a very respectable record of 18 wins from 32 games in the Ryder Cup whilst Kaymer sank 'the Medinah putt' to bring the Ryder Cup home from USA in 2012. Garcia is a golfer who frustrates on the greens whilst Kaymer isn't the same guy who was once the world number one.

I find this game tough to call but if you're putting me on the spot then I say USA just edge it with Jimmy Walker playing a major role.

I'll start by saying that I was shocked with this pairing from Darren Clarke, I thought Danny Willett would play for five points in his Ryder Cup debut. I probably go as far as saying that Darren Clarke maybe changed his mind after Danny Willett's brother caused controversy earlier this week. I think it's unfortunate for Danny as there has been a lot pressure on him to speak out when I don't really think it was necessary. Danny is his own person and what his brother says or does is really nothing to do with Danny.

Anyway, Dustin Johnson and Matt Kuchar would be extremely tough to beat no matter what pairing Europe sent out. DJ has worked extremely hard on his short game and it's clearly paid off. The winner of the US Open, FedEx Cup and the current world number 2 is cleverly paired with a very consistent golfer in Matt Kuchar. Kuuuuuuuch's consistency and bronze at the Olympics is what earned himself a wild card pick.

Thomas Pieters is another debutant for Europe, he shot a 62 to force his way into this Ryder Cup team and is paired with Lee Westwood. Westy is a solid golfer which is why he's playing in his TENTH Ryder Cup. If Lee Westwood could putt then he'd have definitely won more times on the European and PGA tour.

I see USA taking this one and taking at least a 2½ - 1½ lead into the afternoon four balls.

It's tough to back against the Spieth & Reed partnership after they comfortably beat Rose & Stenson in the foursomes this morning. USA are arguably better when it comes to four balls and I fancy USA to come out on top in this one, although Rose & Stenson will probably make it tougher for the Americans.

Holmes is a big hitter who can be either absolutely brilliant or extremely wayward. He probably a very good partner for Ryan Moore who is in fine form. This is J.B's 2nd appearance at the Ryder Cup and his record is very good.

Europe pair the Spaniards together in this one, Garcia & Cabrera Bello is another likeable partnership. Although Cabrera Bello hasn't won this season he's been very consistent and the experience of Sergio Garcia will help him a lot. A difficult game to call and one I'll probably try to avoid betting on.

I'm a big fan of Snedeker, he's currently ranked number 23 in the world and that mainly down to his putting. At times he can be fabulous on the greens and playing with the long hitting Koepka could be a perfect partnership. Brooks is another debutant at the Ryder Cup but don't let that fool anyone, this guy can play! Koepka is ranked 22 in the world and I see this pairing tough to beat.

Martin Kaymer didn't play great this morning and he's paired with the Masters champion Danny Willett. Lots of eyes will be on Danny Willett after his brothers comments and it will be interesting to see how he copes with the heckling. I see USA taking this match, but I think it'll be a cracker.

Dustin Johnson vs Rory McIlroy, I'll have some of that! This is the pairing I'm praying to see in the singles but we'll take a warm up right here.

I have Europe winning this one. Pieters dropped a few nice putts this morning and if he can take care of Matt Kuchar then I definitely see Rory McIlroy out gunning Dustin Johnson over 18 holes, especially if he continues to knock those short putts in. It's going to be close but I see Europe just taking this game.

I just couldn't see Mickelson playing again in the foursomes so I'm somewhat surprised that he is first to tee up for USA on Saturday morning. Mickelson was horrendous off the tee in Friday's foursomes and if McIlroy & Peters can show the same form when beat DJ & Kuch then I see Europe getting another point on the board here.

This was the pairing that won the only point for USA in the fourballs and its no surprise that Davis Love III sticks with them. Sneds and Koepka easily beat Willett and Kaymer but this should be tougher. Stenson was half of the pairing that put up a monumental performance to hammer Spieth and Reed yesterday afternoon and he's paired with Ryder Cup debutant Matthew Fitzpatrick. The young Englishman is the baby of the team but he's a very steady golfer and should make a perfect partner for Henrik Stenson. I'm going to stick my neck on the line here and say Europe take this point.

This is a game that I'm struggling to call mainly because of how Jimmy Walker played in the very early part of the morning yesterday. Walker and Zach Johnson won their point but it was a bit of a car crash foursome against Garcia & Kaymer, but Rose & Wood will put up more of a test.

If Walker plays how he did yesterday morning then Rose & Wood will take this but I fancy Jimmy Walker to up his game significantly. If you was pushing me for a prediction then I'd say USA win this point but I wouldn't be surprise if it was halved - it's a no bet from me.

We've already seen both of these pairings, the USA pairing on more than one occasion. This should be a cracker. Spieth & Reed were comfortably beaten yesterday afternoon and they wouldn't have like that at all. Prepare for a very focused performance from USA here. The Spaniards team up again after their 3&2 victory against Moore & Holmes but this will be a different test for EUR. I see the American's taking this point but Europe winning the morning 2½-1½.

This should be a cracker, four golfers who smash it miles. Koepka and Pieters have been brilliant in their debut Ryder Cup's whilst Dustin Johnson and Rory McIlroy are up there with the best drivers on tour. If Rory can keep the ball on the fairway then I say Europe will win this point as Koepka was very wayward earlier today in his foursomes match with Snedeker. McIlroy & Pieters beat DJ & Kuchar yesterday 3&2 and I predict a similar score in this one.

I really can't predict this one. This is probably the best format for Westwood, I think it was a wise move from Clarke keeping him away from foursomes but it will be interesting to see how his partner Danny Willett plays after suffering a hammering in the four balls yesterday. The long hitting J.B Holmes & the in form Ryan Moore are the opposition for Westy & Willett, I predict that this goes all the way down the 18th. It's a no bet four ball for me but if you're pushing me for a prediction I say USA take this one but it'll be close.

Kuch sat out this morning whilst Mickelson was on the end of 4&2 beating against McIlroy & Pieters. Sergio Garcia is currently playing the 18th against Reed & Spieth - it's been an epic game where the European pairing of Garcia & Cabrera Bello have battled by from 4 down to tie and take it up the 18th. Garcia will be drained and has less than an hours rest before he gets back out there. I think the fresh Matt Kuchar and Phill Mickelson take the point home for USA.

Here we go again! Reed & Speith vs Rose & Stenson part III. Currently 1-1 and it would take a brave guy to have a big bet on the winner of this one. Reed & Spieth are currently having a wobble against Garcia & Cabrera Bello and they're likely to be emotionally drained no matter the outcome. I think Europe take this one but It'll be closer than the 5&4 win for EUR yesterday afternoon.
