Jimmy Walker vs Rafael Cabrera-Bello

After a weak start, Cabrera-Bello makes par. It should have been a point for the American but his birdie effort is way off. The Spaniard walks away like he's just sunk an eagle there. That'll be a huge psychological boost for him after such a shaky tee-off.

Patrick Reed vs Rory McIlroy  

Bad news for McIlroy. Having landed on the edge of the green at the fifth hole, he faced quite the challenge in making birdie. His effort just ran up shot, handing Reed the opportunity to take the hole. With an impressive 15-footer, he sinks it and it's all-square again in the first match.

Phil Mickelson vs Sergio Garcia  

Back at the first, Mickelson comes up short with his approach on the green. Garcia puts him to shame as his own second shot bounces to within five feet of the putt. A birdie, and the hole, beckons for the Spaniard.

Patrick Reed vs Rory McIlroy  

Bad news for Rory. Reed's tee-shot on the eight settled nicely 15 feet or so from the pin - but it was a very different story for McIlroy. It fell far too short before proceeding to roll backwards to the front of the green. He'll need to pull off something spectacular if he's got any chance of halving this hole.

Patrick Reed vs Rory McIlroy  

Holy moly! McIlroy tees off to the front of the green, and by all accounts it's a poor shot on the eight. Reed is much closer, but McIlroy erupts when he sinks a monster 55-foot putt. He infuriates the crowd by shouting "I can't hear you!", but the noise is clear for everyone to hear when Reed also holes out a brilliant shot. Fair play to the pair of them, and they fist bump each other in respect of the incredible play we've seen so far.

Dustin Johnson vs Chris Wood   

This really is a strong start for Chris Wood. Up against the US Open champion and the form player this year, he birdies two to go 1 UP.

[2 October 2016 19:37 · Jack de Menezes]

Rickie Fowler vs Justin Rose  

Rose has the bow out as he knocks in a putt on nine to finish the front nine with a one-shot lead.

JB Holmes vs Thomas Pieters

Holmes and Pieters are going toe-to-toe out there, and after Pieters sends in an approach to within three feet, Holmes responds by holing a 15-footer. Pieters isn't given the putt, but he holes out a walks unmoved to the next tee.

[2 October 2016 20:07 · Jack de Menezes]

Jordan Spieth vs Henrik Stenson

Stenson misses a par putt with Spieth in close company, and the American capitalises to win the 12 and reduce the lead to just one shot.

Ryan Moore vs Lee Westwood

What an important putt that could be from Lee Westwood. He has a 20-foot effort that can wipe out Moore's lead, and it slowly finds its way to the hole to spark an emphatic celebration from the Englishman. 

Dustin Johnson vs Chris Wood   

Wood can only make a bogey at the seventh, but it's enough to win the hole as Johnson double bogeys in what is very much a forgettable hole for the pair of them.

Patrick Reed vs Rory McIlroy

McIlroy misses his birdie effort and he's not playing the great golf that we saw on the front nine now. Reed and go two clear here, but he also misses and it remains just one.

[2 October 2016 20:14 · Jack de Menezes]

JB Holmes vs Thomas Pieters

Holmes has a putt to win the 12th, but he misses and Pieters stands there motionless to make him putt out the half.

Jordan Spieth vs Henrik Stenson

Having just clawed on shot back, Spieth drives into the water and when his next shot is a duff into the bunker, he concedes the hole to drop back to 2 DOWN.
