U.S. Ryder Cup captain Keegan Bradley is sticking to his strategy for Saturday, regardless of an ugly opening day of action on Friday.
The announced pairings for Saturday morning’s foursomes are almost exactly what they were Friday, when the Americans lost three out of four matches.

The only change is replacing Bryson DeChambeau’s Friday partner Justin Thomas with Cameron Young.
Other than that, the U.S. will count on the same teammates simply playing better on Saturday against the Europeans, who are trotting out the same lineup that helped lift them to a decisive 5.5-2.5 lead after Day 1.
While both teams shuffled there orders, the teams will largely look the same. Here’s how Saturday morning’s pairings will shake out.
Match 1 (7:10 a.m. ET):
USA’s Bryson DeChambeau & Cameron Young vs. Europe’s Matt Fitzpatrick & Ludvig Åberg
Match 2 (7:26 a.m. ET):
USA’s Harris English & Collin Morikawa vs. Europe’s Rory McIlroy & Tommy Fleetwood
