Start time for Sunday’s singles and full final day schedule for Europe vs the USA

Jon Rahm will lead Europe out on Sunday as they chase the four points required to beat the USA and win the Ryder Cup.

World No 1 Scottie Scheffler, who was left in tears on Saturday morning, will be Rahm’s opponent in the first singles match-up on the final day in Rome, where Europe hold a lead of 10.5 to 5.5.

With 14.5 points the all-important mark for Europe to reach, the visiting US side require a record comeback that would trump 2012’s “Miracle of Medinah”.

On that occasion, Europe overturned a 10-6 deficit going into the final day, meaning the US are chasing what would be an historic turnaround at the Marco Simone Golf & Country Club.

“If you asked to be at 10.5 after two days, we’d take it,” said Team Europe captain Luke Donald:

“There’s always momentum shifts; I thought maybe we were going to snatch a 2-2 tie this afternoon, but the US team hung in there and Cantlay birdied the last three holes. He played great.”
