  1. Make that two back...published at 09:05 BST

    2Up Stark/Grant v Corpuz/Korda (11)

    Hello! All of a sudden this big lead in the top match doesn't look so big as Nelly Korda lands a long putt on the 11th to make it back-to-back wins for the USA to cut that four-hole lead in half.

    That's why this USA pair are unbeaten and although Maja Stark and Linn Grant still lead by two there must be some nerves building knowing exactly what their opponents can do.

    Still, if they stay calm they'll remember the Americans have made two birdies, they've not given holes away, and they still lead by two with seven to play. It's nowhere near as comfortable as it was just a couple of holes ago though.

  2. Woad saver for Europepublished at 09:02 BST

    Hull/Woad v Al Lee/Coughlin 4UP (8)

    Charley Hull plays a delightful wedge out of the sand on the eighth to leave Lottie Woad with a five-footer for birdie.

    Alison Lee is also accurate with her chip from short of the green and Lauren Coughlin will putt first from about seven feet.

    Coughlin drains the putt. This now becomes must make for Woad to halt a run of four hole losses on the trot.

    It's left edge and the ball drops. Rot stopped?

  3. USA pull one backpublished at 08:57 BST

    3UP Stark/Grant v Corpuz/Korda (10)

    A rare poor shot from Linn Grant with a wedge in hand and that leaves the door open for the USA to pull a hole back.

    The Swedes still don't make a bogey, getting their par, but a birdie wins it for the USA, could the fightback be on?

  4. Big chance missedpublished at 08:56 BST

    Maguire/Henseleit v Kupcho/Zhang 2UP (9)

    We're not seeing much of this match. But they are on the ninth green.

    Jen Kupcho is standing over an eight-footer for par. A bend of the knees doesn't help the ball turn and drop into the hole.

    That leaves Esther Henseleit with a short one to claw a hole back for the Europeans. Wow. Pushed it. A missed putt from three feet. Yikes.

  5. Rhodes doubles Europe leadpublished at 08:55 BST

    2UP Rhodes/Nadaud v Kim/Lee (8)

    Auston Kim lips out on a long-range putt on the eighth and that leaves Mimi Rhodes the simple task of knocking in a short one to double Europe's lead in this match.

    With the USA well up in two matches and Europe well ahead in another this one was the only match with just a one-hole lead. And it looks crucial to Anna Nordqvist's side in this session.

    Hull/Woad v Al Lee/Coughlin 4UP (7)

    On to the par-four eighth and a bit of a wait on the tee for the green to clear. Will that help the European pair?

    Lauren Coughlin up first and she drills her shot short of the putting surface.

    Lottie Woad lets rip but her ball bounds into a greenside bunker.

  7. Hull & Woad continue to mis-firepublished at 08:46 BST

    Hull/Woad v Al Lee/Coughlin 4UP (7)

    Alison Lee and Lauren Coughlin are playing some excellent golf this morning and they are in close again for a birdie try on the par-four seventh.

    Lottie Woad's second into the green is superb for distance, 15 feet right of the hole though. And Charley Hull races the birdie try long.

    Alison Lee from half that distance. Boom. Four up. Wow.

  8. Nightmare for USA dream teampublished at 08:42 BST

    4Up Stark/Grant v Corpuz/Korda (9)

    Uh oh! Nelly Korda sees a short putt on the ninth horseshoe around the cup and stay up meaning they lose yet another hole and hit the turn four down.

    Just a reminder that Korda and Allisen Corpuz have a perfect 5-0 record and although they've been behind in four of those matches they've never been more than two down at any stage.

    But this Swedish pairing have being playing some stellar foursomes golf, they really have, as they've not made one single bogey yet in 27 holes together at this Solheim Cup and they're nine under in this alternate shot format that's usually so difficult.

    And for the second day running Maja Stark and Linn Grant reach the turn four up in their match - they've been absolutely sensational so far.

  9. Europe holding onpublished at 08:40 BST

    Maguire/Henseleit v Kupcho/Zhang 2UP (7)

    Wonderful chip by Esther Henseleit ensures a par for Europe on the eighth.

    Jen Kupcho has a chance to put her side 3UP. But her 15-footer does not trouble the hole. And the European pair are not conceding that. Both Henseleit and Leona Maguire stand, arms folded, stony faced.

    It's a good three feet. Rose Zhang knocks it in.

  10. Postpublished at 08:36 BST

    Maguire/Henseleit v Kupcho/Zhang 2UP (7)

    The par-four eighth is only playing 255 yards today. It's easily in reach but bunkers guard the front and there is rough down the left.

    Jen Kupcho is left of the hole but stays on the short stuff.

    Esther Henseleit finds a bunker. And Leona Maguire airmails the green from the bunker. Huge mistake.

    Rose Zhang doesn't take full advantage though, her chip mooching a good 15 feet long. A chance for Europe to escape with a half.

  11. Darts!published at 08:32 BST

    1UP Rhodes/Nadaud v Kim/Lee (6)

    Auston Kim has really stepped up since hitting it in the water earlier, draining that monster putt to halve a hole earlier and now firing in a dart of an iron shot on seven.

    But how about the response from Mimi Rhodes under all the pressure she fires another beauty in there - not as close as the Americans but if Nastasia Nadaud can pop that in then you never know what can happen.

  12. Another hole lostpublished at 08:30 BST

    Hull/Woad v Al Lee/Coughlin 3UP (6)

    Charley Hull is in the drop zone on the sixth. She still has an expanse of water to cross but realistically needs to hole this to avoid going three down.

    It's a decent stab. The ball pitches a foot or so from the hole but hops three yards on before putting on the brakes.

    The US have two putts from eight feet. Actually, scratch that. Hole conceded. Work to do for the English pair.

  13. Europe scrappingpublished at 08:27 BST

    Maguire/Henseleit v Kupcho/Zhang 2UP (7)

    Leona Maguire clips a wonderful chip from just off the seventh green as the Europeans scramble a half in match two to stay two down.

  14. Europe wetpublished at 08:26 BST

    Hull/Woad v Al Lee/Coughlin 2UP (5)

    Lauren Coughlin has the tee shot on the par-three sixth and she hits a pin-seeker, the ball landing on the green and rolling out to about eight feet.

    Lottie Woad needs to follow that in because the US pair have a bit of momentum here. Oh no! Woad's ball is wet.

    The ball lands on the fringe of the green but tumbles backwards, almost in slow motion.

  15. Swedish chip-in eagle!published at 08:24 BST

    3Up Stark/Grant v Corpuz/Korda (8)

    More Maja Stark magic on the eight as she plays an unbelievable chip from well short of the eighth green in the rough just outside a bunker.

    She plays the perfect chunk and run and the ball tracks and tracks along the putting surface and drops into the cup.

    The crowd go nuts, and Stark does a bit too as she bounces around the green celebrating an eagle two on this short par four.

    The Americans are gutted as they stood on the green in one and looked in charge of the hole but when the eagle putt misses they're not three down. That could be huge.

  16. US inch further aheadpublished at 08:21 BST

    Hull/Woad v Al Lee/Coughlin 2UP (5)

    It will be a putting contest on the par-five fifth after Charley Hull and Alison Lee both clip wedges into similar distances.

    Lottie Woad will be first to try for a birdie and first to play can be an advantage. Hole the putt and your opponent's suddenly looks a foot or two longer. Although miss it and the reverse is true.

    Woad misses. Coughlin holes. Daylight

  17. Deja vu?published at 08:15 BST

    This morning is following a similar pattern to day one, with Europe making the faster start - they have not trailed any of the 12 matches after three holes - but the US fighting back through the middle holes of the round.

  18. Swedes double their leadpublished at 08:13 BST

    2Up Stark/Grant v Corpuz/Korda (7)

    Two good birdies chances on the seventh. Europe go first with a tricky one down the slope but Maja Stark nails it - and that turns up the heat on Allisen Corpuz who is closer and has a simpler putt straight up the hill.

    But that hole gets smaller in situations like this and of course Corpuz then goes and misses hers as we get our first 'classic matchplay' moment of the day.

    Europe's super Swedes go two up.

  19. US have daylight in match twopublished at 08:13 BST

    Maguire/Henseleit v Kupcho/Zhang 2UP (6)

    Leona Maguire will be a little frustrated with her chip as she watches it race a good 10 feet past the hole.

    Rose Zhang elects to putt up the hill and it initially looks like she's not given that enough of a biff. But the ball keeps on rolling and finally settles four feet short.

    Henseleit's par putt is aggressive but misses on the left. Will Jen Kupcho take advantage this time? Yes is the simple answer.

    Maguire/Henseleit v Kupcho/Zhang 1UP (5)

    The short sixth is all over water and there were plenty of balls in the pond yesterday.

    Both Jen Kupcho and Esther Henseleit find the putting surface with their tee shots but both their balls slide down into a run-off area.

    Europe's ball is slightly further away so Leona Maguire has the chance to hit first and putt some pressure on.
