Europe extends Ryder Cup lead to 8-4 behind ‘Moliwood’

Saint-Quentin-En-Yvelines, France • Europe was on the verge of blowing open the Ryder Cup by winning three matches Saturday morning in fourballs to build an 8-4 lead over the Americans for its largest three-session lead since 2004.

Francesco Molinari and Tommy Fleetwood — known this week at Le Golf National as "Moliwood" — put on another show by beating Tiger Woods and Patrick Reed for the second time in as many days. They are the only partnership to win all three matches.

Woods now has gone six straight Ryder Cup matches without winning, dating to his singles victory in 2010.
