KOHLER, Wisconsin (Reuters) - The Europe and the United States Ryder Cup captains shuffled their lineups from the morning foursomes for the afternoon fourballs on Friday, making sure everyone on their 12-man teams saw action on the opening day at Whistling Straits.

Despite dominating the foursomes matches 3-1 U.S. captain Steve Stricker chose to shake up his pairings by sending out Dustin Johnson and Olympic champion Xander Schauffele to face Britain's Paul Casey and Ryder Cup newcomer Austrian Bernd Wiesberger, who sat out the morning session.
