Team Europe will seek to win back the Ryder Cup when they take on the United States in Rome at the end of September. The US thrashed Europe when they last met at Whistling Straits in Wisconsin, but the Americans have not won away from home since 1993 and a much-improved European team will hope to maintain that record.

European captain Luke Donald, who took over the reins after Henrik Stenson defected to LIV Golf, already has four automatically qualified picks in his ranks: Rory McIlroy, Jon Rahm, Viktor Hovland and Tyrrell Hatton.

Two more will automatically qualify: Scottish lefty Robert MacIntyre is likely to claim the final place on the European points list, though he faces competition from Germany’s Yannik Paul; while Tommy Fleetwood and Matt Fitzpatrick are fighting it out for the final spot on the world points list.

Donald will then have six captain’s picks to round off the European team.
