All eyes turn to Bethpage Black this week as Team Europe go in search of a first away Ryder Cup win since the Miracle at Medinah.
Luke Donald is once again captain, having led his side so impressively to victory in Rome two years ago, but he will be fully aware of just how much more difficult the task will be this week.
That 2012 win at Medinah is one of only two away victories either team has managed since the turn of the century.
Expecting an unforgiving New York crowd, Donald has opted for experience and there is only change to the European side from the 2023 team, with Rasmus Hojgaard replacing his twin brother Nicolai.
Here, Standard Sport takes a look at the European dozen looking to upset the odds at Bethpage...
Only 37 players have won away from home. Time we added to that?

Completed the career Grand Slam with his Masters win in April. Four points in Rome was his best return, and the Northern Irishman has missed only one session since his Ryder Cup debut in 2010.
Robert MacIntyre
Second in qualifying after a superb season. An unfortunate runner-up at US Open and now in the world's top ten. Will relish the hostile atmosphere.
Ended his long wait for PGA Tour win by claiming the FedEx Cup. Perfect 4-0-0 foursomes record and should team up with McIlroy again for opening sesion.
Justin Rose
The 45-year-old is still going strong, 17 years on from first appearance. Like McIlroy he was involved in the 2012 Miracle at Medinah and he will have a crucial role to play on and off the course.
Rasmus Hojgaard
Replaces twin brother Nicolai in only change from 2023 team. Claimed the final automatic spot but 24-year-old does not have a major top-ten finish to his name.
Tyrrell Hatton
A huge effort to qualify automatically despite playing on LIV tour. Formed a strong partnership with Jon Rahm in Rome and likely to pair up again.
Shane Lowry
Sparkling early-season form cooled off but he was always likely to be handed a captain's pick. Third consecutive appearance on the team for the 2019 Open champion.
Jon Rahm
Only 24th in qualification standings but won the LIV individual title and two top-tens in the majors this year. Not at his brilliant best but Europe need him to deliver.
Viktor Hovland
Spent much of the year frustrated with his own game but still won the Valspar Championship. Delivered 3.5 points in Rome and one of Europe's strongest assets when at his best.
Ludvig Aberg
The 25-year-old played alongside Hovland in a stunning 9&7 win over Scottie Scheffler and Brooks Koepka two years ago. Form has ticked along without being outstanding, and likely to play at least four matches.
Matt Fitzpatrick
Bad dip in results led to change of coach and caddie earlier this year. Place on this team was in serious doubt but he turned things around impressively. A 1-7-0 Ryder Cup record is an obvious concern.
Sepp Straka
Only member of team not to play at Wentworth due to the premature birth of his child. Two wins on the PGA Tour earlier this year but form has dropped off. Foursomes partner for Shane Lowry two years ago.
