Ryder Cup 2018: Predicting Most Intriguing Potential Pairings

The 2018 Ryder Cup tees off in Paris on Friday, with Le Golf National hosting the 42nd edition of the competition between teams from Europe and the USA.

USA will be aiming to defend the title they won two years ago at Hazeltine National Golf Club in Minnesota, but they will be well aware they have not won the tournament on foreign soil since 1993.

Europe have only lost the Ryder Cup twice as hosts, and with both teams boasting strong lineups, this year's tournament promises to be yet another thrilling weekend of action.

The pairings will be crucial, so Team Europe captain Thomas Bjorn and Team USA captain Jim Furyk will need to select players who can work together to help bring success to their team.
