“We definitely played better in the morning than we played in the afternoon. Olivia and Sophie played great golf but in the second match we were doing all right before losing five holes on the spin and then it got really ragged. You can’t get any momentum and they were always fighting it.

“I was disappointed because we didn't play to our own high standards and we didn't really put any pressure on the Americans in the second two matches.

“We can still do it. Every single one of them can beat every single one of the Americans. We've got to believe that and we've got to go out fighting.”

Olivia Mehaffey, Great Britain and Ireland

“We played really well this afternoon. We played two amazing players so feels pretty good to get the win right now. Obviously, it's a little disappointing how the team has done but everyone will be pumped up tomorrow. We’ve got nothing to lose, we've got to go out all guns blazing and hopefully we can get a couple points on the board.”
