Ryder Cup, 2.00am, Sky Sports Ryder Cup
The build-up to the concluding day of the 45th Ryder Cup as Sunday singles commences at Bethpage Black in New York at 2pm, which is 9am in New York.
The actual contest resumes at 5pm with coverage of the singles matches on day the third and final day at Bethpage Black in New York, where Team Europe (above) and Team USA face each other in the 45th staging of the competition.
While the corresponding session was tied two years ago in Rome, the overall outcome never looked in doubt for Europe, who secured a 16.5-11.5 victory.
It was the fifth successive Ryder Cup victory for the team playing on home soil, but Europe will be looking to emulate the last away win in the competition, when they prevailed 14.5-13.5 in Illinois 13 years ago.
