ABU DHABI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — Continental Europe has established a 3-2 lead in the Hero Cup after taking down Britain & Ireland’s top players in the fourballs as Ryder Cup captain Luke Donald cast his eye over the continent’s next generation in match-play competition. The event was added to the schedule to give Donald a chance to assess his options ahead of Europe’s contest with the United States outside Rome in September.
