The Americans took a 3-point lead - 7.5 to 4.5 - at the end of Day 2 in the Curtis Cup, winning two of three afternoon four-balls. Here is how the matches turned out on Saturday:

Foursomes

• Carly Booth/Breanne Loucks, GB&I, def. Kimberly Kim/Jennie Lee, U.S., 3 and 2
• Alison Walshe/Stacy Lewis, U.S., def. Sally Watson/Michele Thomson, GB&I, 5 and 4
• Elizabeth Bennett/Jodi Ewart, GB&I, halved with Amanda Blumenherst/Tiffany Joh, U.S.

Four-Balls

• Kimberly Kim/Mina Harigae, U.S., def. Carly Booth/Breanne Loucks, GB&I, 2 and 1
• Sally Watson/Krystle Caithness, GB&I, def. Amanda Blumenherst/Meghan Bolger, U.S., 3 and 2
• Alison Walshe/Stacy Lewis, U.S., def. Elizabeth Bennett/Florentyna Parker, GB&I, 1-up

The U.S. needs 10 points to retain the Cup, GB&I needs 10.5 points to take it away. There are eight singles matches on Sunday (GB&I player listed first):

• Breanne Loucks vs. Kimberly Kim
• Jodi Ewart vs. Amanda Blumenherst
• Elizabeth Bennett vs. Stacy Lewis
• Carly Booth vs. Tiffany Joh
• Michele Thomson vs. Jennie Lee
• Florentyna Parker vs. Meghan Bolger
• Krystle Caithness vs. Mina Harigae
• Sally Watson vs. Alison Walshe

There are eight points available tomorrow, and GB&I has to get six of them to win the Cup. There are certainly some upset possibilities in the lineup above (and in match play, you just never know anyway), but I just don't see where those six points can come from.

I mentioned yesterday that I'd post a link to Sky Sports' video of Curtis Cup highlights. Alas, they never posted the clip, so I assume they won't be posting today's highlights, either. Maybe the Sky Sports Web team takes the weekend off. I'll keep checking, though, just in case, because Sky Sports is the only network offering any kind of Curtis Cup coverage ...
