The stars of the Ryder Cup and their WAGS turned on the glamour for a glitzy gala dinner at the Palace of Versailles on Wednesday night.
Both teams posed on the steps of the 17th-century palace before heading inside for the ball, but they did their best to match the magnificence of the venue by turning out looking their finest.
The players wore matching team suits, but it was the wives and girlfriends who stole the show in their stunning ball gowns.

Europe captain Thomas Bjorn's girlfriend Grace Barber donned a sleek sky blue dress, complete with silver sparkles, while Rory McIlroy's wife Erica looked elegant in a white and black spotty skirt.
Kate Rose, who is married to English ace Justin, may well have turned some of her fellow WAGs green with envy as she looked stunning in a long gown of the same colour.
Alex Noren technically brought two guests as his wife Jennifer is heavily pregnant. He looked proud as punch as he held Jennifer's baby bump during a photo call.
The American WAGS perhaps stole the show, however.
Tiger Woods and his girlfriend Erica Herman also posed on the steps; as did Rickie Fowler with his fiancee, Allison Stokke

There was also time for selfies aplenty as they made the most of their time at one of the world's grandest locations.
The players, captains and vice-captains didn't look too shabby either. Team Europe dressed in navy blue suits and black shoes, while their American rivals were all decked out in matching black suits and brown shoes.

Thorbjorn Olesen, the Danish rookie, also got plenty of attention despite attending on his own. Olesen made light of his lack of a date by posing with every wife and girlfriend on the European team for a hilarious picture. Bryson DeChambeau was the only man on the US team without a date, with his girlfriend Sofia Phalen Bertolami absent.
After the pictures, the two teams headed inside for dinner, hosted in the beautiful Orangerie.
There was little chance to rest any sore heads on Thursday morning, with practice and press conferences scheduled from 7.30am BST.
The Ryder Cup opening ceremony takes place at 4pm, where the opening fourball pairings will be announced, meaning fans will get to know who will take on who in the first four matches.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
