Follow live coverage of the 2023 Ryder Cup at the Marco Simone Golf and Country Club near Rome in Italy
Since 1993, Europe has always decided to kick off the competition with the fourballs. Until now.
Donald, drafted in to replace previous captain Henrik Stenson after he joined the Saudi Arabia-backed breakaway tour LIV, has opted to begin with the foursomes, in the hopes of getting some points on the board early, presumably hoping to get the crowd behind the hosts and imbue some confidence in his charges.
He said: “Having spoken to the players, it was decided that foursomes was the best way to go. It's really just a deep dive into statistics of the team. We feel like we have some strong foursomes pairings. “We feel like we are just slightly stronger statistically in foursomes to fourballs. In Ryder Cups, you want to get off to an early lead. We have an opportunity to send out four strong pairings and hopefully grab an early lead.”
