One of the biggest news coming into day 2 is that Tiger Woods will be on the bench for the first time in his Ryder Cup career.

Woods struggled through day 1 and U.S. captain Dais Love III has decided to leave the former world number 1 on the bench for Saturday morning's foursomes.

Until now Woods had played in every match he has been available for since making his debut all the way back in 1997 at Valderrama.

However, Love had said earlier in the week that he was not keen on any golfer playing all five matches over the three days, and that he would prefer if they conserved their energy for the singles matches on Sunday.

Friday morning was a tense affair as both sides traded blows, coming out of the morning Foursomes 2-2. However, the afternoon Fourballs saw the United States turn the screws at the Medinah Country Club, led by the brilliant pairing of Phil Mickelson and Keegan Bradley.

Bubba Watson and Webb Simpson were also a powerful duo as the hosts claimed three of the available points after lunch to move into a good lead moving into day 2.
