Despite dramatic point swings and bubbling tensions that threatened to spill over, the Presidents Cup ended as it always has for the last 19 years – in a Team USA triumph. A Sunday flourish saw a star-studded American side cruise to its 10th consecutive victory in the biennial contest, Ryder Cup captain Keegan Bradley clinching the winning point in an 18.5–11.5 defeat of the International Team at Royal Montreal Golf Club in Canada. Xander Schauffele, a two-time major champion this year, set the tone for 12 closing singles matches with a 4&3 (four ahead with three holes to play) dismantling of Australia’s Jason Day, leaving captain Jim Furyk’s team needing just 3.5 more points to win after carrying an 11–7 advantage into the fourth and final day. Points for Russell Henley and Patrick Cantlay and a half-point (draw) for the undefeated Sam Burns meant that, despite world No. 1 Scottie Scheffler’s loss to Hideki Matsuyama, Bradley confirmed yet another US victory when opponent Kim Si-woo could not convert from 10 feet on the final hole. It marked a full-circle moment a decade in the making for Bradley, who had not represented a US team since losing the match that confirmed a bruising Ryder Cup defeat against Europe in 2014. The 38-year-old now hopes to take the lessons of this week’s victory into next year’s surprise appointment at the helm for the 45th Ryder Cup in New York.
