Q. Important to put some blue on the board to limit, how good does it feel to do just that?

VIKTOR HOVLAND: That was awesome. Obviously it was looking really good for us early on, and now there's a little too much red going on there. But it was nice to put up the first point for Europe, and hopefully we can get some more coming.

Q. The majority of the European players have been a little muted and not much celebrating. Is that an instruction from the captain, keep yourself focused and calm?

VIKTOR HOVLAND: No, not really. I think we are all just trying to take care of our business. You know, every single match feels like a sprint but it's still 18 holes. Just because you make one putt, you don't want to feel like you've won the match because you've made a putt. Maybe that's what guys are doing. They are keeping their heads down and just letting the clubs do the talking. Yeah.
