The European pairing ended the undefeated streak of Phil Mickelson and Keegan Bradley on Friday afternoon and they are on course to register another point for their side after a dominant performance.
McDowell and Dubuisson, who is making his Ryder Cup debut, moved four clear after six holes against opponents who looked weary after already playing 54 holes at Gleneagles.
Walker had a putt to get back to 4 DOWN on the ninth but his putt lacked confidence and he and Fowler look down and out at the turn.
