ABU DHABI, United Arab Emirates -- Britain and Ireland dominated the two foursomes sessions and took an 11-4 lead over Continental Europe at the Team Cup on the second day Saturday.
The event at Abu Dhabi Golf Resort gives European players valuable matchplay action ahead of the Ryder Cup in New York this year.
Britain and Ireland led 3½-1½ overnight following Friday's fourballs and won 7½ of 10 points during the foursomes sessions. Britain and Ireland needs just two points in Sunday's singles to clinch the trophy.
The team's overall performance delighted captain Justin Rose.
