On the heels of Team USA recapturing the Solheim Cup in the women’s version of team golf, the Americans once again took down the International squad in the Presidents Cup played at Royal Montreal (Canada) in late September. Team USA raced out to a 5-0 lead on day one in the fourball competition, only for the Internationals to return the favor on day two, winning all five foursome matches. This gave hope that this year’s competition would be competitive.
However, the superior American depth showed itself on the weekend with the USA eventually winning, 18 1/2 – 11 1/2. Many keen observers bemoan the fact that the USA has been so dominant in this competition as the International squad has only won one time in 30 years. Short of saying that the Americans must sit out their 12 best players, it looks like the competition will be one-sided for quite some time, unfortunately.
